When we reched the place, we were not the only ones going for a picnic on a rainy day..just that we're the only ones going to BBQ...gila la...salah ko tok shirley!!! Anyway.. to masuk Matang Family Park, we have to pay RM3 per head...and an additional RM5 for those BBQ-ing.... the guard actually asked us to pay eventhough it was raining..gila...dahla tempat BBQ open space...no roof ba... luckily the gal in counter told us not to pay since first since we might end up not BBQ-ing anyway...
Bla bla bla..we got a spot after G-Man fend off a group of guys..they were occupying 4 tables ba...2 tables pun dah cukup for them.... but as soon as we started drinking beer and making noises..they went off..pulang... by then....it was drizzling rather than raining..so we tried to start our fire...that's when lesson 1 happened..
While we were trying to build a fire.... marp and ben-boy went to the river..along with a huge bledar (pelampung bledar 4wd)... according to a survivor... ben-boy somehow lost balance and fell into the river....the current was so fast that...it was more like a rapid rather than a river... so marp lent a hand to ben-boy la (note: ben-boy can't swim).. ben-boy was with the bledar and he accidentally let go of it... so it jatuh a mini-waterfall la... he shouted "marp...bledar!!).. and marp..without thinking much, jumped into the rapid to save the lifeless bledar... (note: marp is a small guy..a lil bigger than a midget...ahhaha)... and due to the current, marp was washed away... a guy, who saw the incident thought marp was a small kid whom was washed away by the current and has been deprived by the bledar..in short..he thought marph was going to drown..so he rushed down the river...
Meanwhile..marp was doin ok...he knew what he was supposed to do in such situation since he's from Tatau ba... why would he jump into the river to save a lifeless pelampung if hez not confident?? but he was washed away la..just that he had to swim to the riverbank.... by the time the dude reached marph....marp was sitting down by a rock, staring at the pelampung being washed away futher away.... if only the dude knew that marph actually jumped into the river to save the bleda...mesti marph kena tampar coz buat orang nabes jak..ahahha...
So we were BBQ-ing when marp and ben-boy survived the incident...and we had a good laugh listening to marp's story....soon after that..lesson 2 pulak.... the rest of the guys went down to the river while I stayed back to BBQ with the gals... according to an eye-witness.... G-Man was floating on his back and he didn't realize he was moving towards the mini-fall...and when he realized it, it was too late... but.... he survived with not cuts and bruises... just like marp..he knew that in such situation, never ever fight the current..just follow....
Lesson 3 occured when I went down to the river to join the,..G-Man baru survived la... He was telling how it happened...so Meng2 melakonkan semula..and he was actually carried by the current... G-Man managd to catch his hand..but meng2 dengan kompiden smiled and gave us 2 thumbs up before falling into the mini-fall... we tot he was playing around..mana tau 5 seconds later he didn't surface...so we went to a frantic la...
We wanted to form a chain by holding hands but tiba tiba Raja Kayak jumped in..nang kompiden la... in a matter of seconds... Raja Kayak was struggling to keep up with the current and he had to grab on marp's boxer....meng2 was still in the water, pushed down by the fall.. in my mind..lalu flash reporters..polis..adeh adeh adeh...
Suddenly..hope came when meng2 was carried by the current..at least at that stage he won't drown...just need to hope he won't hit any rocks la...and...he survived!!! Only after lesson 3..we all went out of the water and sambung BBQ... meng2 was very very tired...and he actually took a nap while we were eating...but when he bangun..lalu polah lawak while telling us his version during the ordeal...ahhaha.. nang lawak la... he said he grabbed hold of someone's leg in the water...the that someone kicked him away...ahhaha...marp marp....
Overall..the picnic was fun because of the 3 lessons..if not..mmg boring la..picnic in the rain ba......but it could have turned into a tragedy if someone did not survived the 3 lessons... wait.... we lost Bleda.... BYah!!!!
