CCC after a year - White water rafting & Caving in Kampar

Hmm...after a year...a lot of things have changed.

The most significant one...everyone is richer by 2 to 3k a month...many with new cars and 2 with a new house....envy of them...I am stuck with my 3584 but am satisfy to at least have him now rather than my 15 years old SLK.

2ndly, we all have only 1 common topic or rather standard questions which were 'What are you doing now, where are you working in, which department, hows life, hows work and etc...all revolves around working life.

3rdly, we were not as crazy as we did...no more rushing for photo shots...I was not sure if it was due to lack of cameras during our outing or it was just because we were too tired with our normal hectic schedule and 2 days of tiring activities together.

Anyway this was really good for us to get together. I enjoyed it very much but was super tired as I could not recover from my Bangkok trip which was only 3 days apart. Take away my tiredness, my post trip MC and the stuck time during white water rafting, this was a great outing.

Thanks to HJ and HF for organizing it! Hope to see everyone again in our 2nd yr gathering!
