The last field-trip
Something's haunting me recently as I am trying hard to pull my concentration towards my carbonate notes on my desk. It is a fact. A cruel truth, that swings my focus out of the exam preparation.
Yes, everyone who was in that trip should know well enough what I'm trying to say -- we've just come back from our very last field-trip......in other words, no more field trips ahead -- to be precise, no more field trips with the same cool and fun gang again, and that is sad.
I have some stories and pictures that I drafted in my head before this post. They are all about our 'cuti-cuti-malaysia'-type of destinations during the geological field-trip, but I chose to put this post prior to all those stories, just because I can't help thinking back those days in Sarawak and also the short course in KL.
This is not any remarkable post that would gather any remarkable thoughts. This post is just a sentimental and miserable note left after my fun and memorable geological field-trip during my MSc. study.
I dedicate it to my 'monsterly' fun 'monsters' coursemates, to the sempoi organizers, to the respectful technical leaders of this trip, Mr Yamin and Mdm Asiah, and to another two coolest new friends we met, Omar and Mahadhir.
Footnote:
1.Blame the network problem in UTP's village -- I couldn't get online to have my regular blog update;
2. Blame the tsunami -- I still believe it's the main reason of getting the internet slow like damned;
3. Blame the exam -- whatever;
4. 15th Jan. is my blog's 1st anniversary, so I did some changes in my layout of my post. Spot it.
