life - is about experiencing...
not too sure why. but this phrase kept popping up in my head today. and then suddenly, i thought - i have not climbed a mountain in my life. and so, i decided that my next trip overseas would involve climbing a mountain. and then mount fuji came to mind. ok, i'll go climb mount fuji next. and then james (my ex) came to mind. he did a trip to mount fuji with his students once before. and i had seen the photos and thought i was real nice. and then i recalled reading somewhere that recently 2 persons were found dead on the way up mount fuji. hmmm, and then i wondered how many peaks i have actually climbed that could be called `mountain'... bukit timah, bukit panjang, and mount faber are definitely out. and lao fo shan (老佛山) (the `old buddha mountain' located in pingtung hsien 屏東縣, taiwan that i had climbed as an officer cadet back in 1986) didn't seemed high enough, same for bukit biang and bukit pasir putih in temburong district, brunei (what more when it is called a bukit and not a gunung). hmmm, how about gunung ledang, or more popularly known as mount ophir... well, reached the camping ground many times but never the peak...
hmmm, my mind has this interesting and annoying habit of wondering... heh.
anyway, yes, i want to continue to experience life.
i will want to climb a mountain next.
