Pack light, you are not a mule.

Studying stresses you sometimes. Even though if studying is something you're good at. Take a time off sometime and go out with your friends and experience nature at its best. This week, I have been with 15 of my friends out to Sungai Congkak, Broga Hill and Sungai Gabai to enjoy sometime with mother nature. Its a 2 day trip, so I didn't bring a lot of stuff with me. We had barbecue at Congkak at night, watched the sun rise in the morning at Broga, plus did some swimming and sliding at Gabai.

Eventhough its not some major event like going oversees or hosting a big party, you can feel the difference when going on a trip that you planned with your friends, compared to just following some trip that is already for you. You feel that you have achieved something great, that you're plan had gone well and everything was a success.

I first noticed the difference when I was going on a trip with my fellow school friends and some teachers who joined us for a trip to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Although I was not the main people who organised the event, I felt attached to the emotion and the troubles that the people who managed the trip had. Because they are my friends, and did so much keeping the plan together like getting the sponsors, accomandations and everything, saving the trip from going down the drain.

Truthfully, most of the trips that I had before this with my family, I didn't enjoy myself that much because I took it for granted. I slept on the way going, and slept all the way back. I regret what I did, because I should have a lot more fun and a lot more memories to carry with me in my journey through life.
What I can do now is make every trip or time out with my friends and family, an enjoyable one. Making these trips a trip to remember.
