6th Jan. '08
The first Sunday that non-Muslim trainees get a step out of camp ground. I, as a Roman Catholic got on a bus to St. Anthony's Chapel, which is the furthest from the camp.
The chapel is little, surrounded by trees, earth and mosquitoes. Mass service started at 8.30am in Bahasa Iban and a little Bahasa Malaysia when the chapel was fully filled. Half the time i was relating everything to English.. == This is the only mass celebrated by a priest. The following visits were conducted by a brother or two.. *i Dont know, i didnt attend.*
After that, we took a 25mins bus ride to Betong town~ Where we were only allowed to spend 20mins.. == WtF .. methodists spent 2Hours there!
So in that short frantic time, i bought a shoe glue to seal my gawping class' heels and spent the rest of the time waiting for others and (somewht 10mins) looking for doris' relatives' shops.. to no avail.. Soon it's back to the bus and Back to camp..
Since it's the first week of the month, my mom came for a visit!~ Supposely with my dad but they met an accident on their way up so my mom hitched a ride and only she showed up. *Details of her visit will not be mentioned.*
