Continuation of Day 3

When Boredom strikes=)

We had the whole day to ourselves to rest and just spend time to know each other better.

We couldn't choose to summit the mountain as and when we wanted cause there is a specific time allocated for us.As it is the rule of climbing the mountain just in case anything happen to us there will be a search team being activated to find us.We have to reach the base by a certain timing.

After some time pondering over things with a magnificent view i returned to the room and there were a group of 7 in my room playing poker!!.

Weejie was playing!

So much for having AMS
This is what happen when it involves money,All the pain goes away

Silly child!

I just learned how to play poker and Douglas invested 2rm and I won back 16 rm for him=)

After that I used my own money,started with 5rm and won 45 rm!!

In the end i gave the money away cause it's dirty money for my religion.

We played all the way till lunch.

Weather turn nasty and cloudy again=(

After lunch we tried to pass the time to entertain ourselves with board games and jenga

It was freaking boring staying inside.

Then Something entertaining happened we gathered at the window and saw some jokers who dared each other to tahan the cold of a minute

The wind was super strong!

After they pulled that stun it gave us an idea(hehehe...)

We modified a drinking game using a pack of poker cards.Who ever got red colour is safe.Who ever got black have to do a forfeit.Picture cards forfeit is done outside.

We found it boring after some time and changes it to guessing the number between 0-100(easy to understand and more thrilling)

First forfeit was a dance outside

Second was stripping to the last piece of cloth on you and lay down on the rock

Last was the worst!Wash your hands in cold water.

Rolling the dice to determine how long you wash your hands for

(1-6=10seconds -60seconds)

It was finally time for dinner.

The atmosphere was suddenly serious as we had a problem about the current weather situation.

All of us had to choose one of the option:

1)Do walk the torquebut unable to go summit and via ferrata

2)Do via ferrata and not go summit

3)Go summit and not do anythingelse

4)If weather really bad we don't do any of the above.

We could only break into 2 groups.The reason why we can't do all firstly the weather secondly we have to reach the base by a certain time.

We had the whole dinner time to think about it.We have to let go of something to get another.We can't have both good things which was initially was planned for us.

I was going for the summit at first but i changed my mind to do the via ferrata.It took me a very long time to decide.Trust me a really long time.

Made our way back to Pendant hut after dinner and was panting when we reached.

It feels like the task of going up step is usually do-able back home but the air here is thin, making simple task hard to do.

...

We had an early nights rest it was about 8pm and will be waking up the same time as the day before. The summit people will leave first followed by the via ferrata group.

I decided to chat with the mountain guides for awhile before i turn myself in.

Day 4 tomorrow

Cause I’m just dying just to see you again
