An Urge To Splurge

Lake Taupo
Saturday, July 15, 2006

Family arranged a trip to taupo. "Family Bonding" was what my mum said she intended for the holiday...well, dont think its applicable to me as i already made my siblings swore that they will come and help me get out if i were to get into prison(prison break styles) and that is all i want.

Turns out, it was not too bad. We went to Mt Ruapehu and weather was great. As we could not possibly afford to bring the whole family for skiing, we decided to just play around the nearby hills. Thick, white, soft snow under our feet as we made our way along the terrain. We climb up this steep slope and slide down from the top. Poor butts. Soaking wet.

Meet snow white and the fellowship

Getting acquainted with my sis

Bro doing some sort of weird tribal dance

Wah...can make heaps of ice kacang man

The next day, we hang out arround Lake Taupo and went kayaking. So there i was, in the middle of the lake looking at mother nature's beautiful creation when suddenly i got too relax. Somehow my kayak over turned and i was swimming for dear life. haha...dont know what happen leh....maybe a hot chick passing by and i got too carried away.

Kayaking isnt my forte i guess

And then we went to taupo bungy. Its was scary standing on top of a cantilever like structre hanging out a cliff. They had all types of bungy jumps such as the leap of faith(jump backwards) , baptism of water(upon descend, getting soak in water), piggy back and even a boobie jump (where u take off your top and jump, this jump was cheaper, and rightly so). I summoned all my courage and.....

BUNGY!!!!

Wow...it was great.....seeing someone bungy in real live. I felt his fear and got all the adrenalin rush i wanted for FREE...hehehe.....sorry lar guys...ill bungy "when the time is right".

DESIDERATA

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars
and you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore, be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labours and asipirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham,drudgery and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
