Skiing??? I prefer snowboarding instead

It's cold, it's crowded, it's snowing... I'm hungry...

Free entertainment. Great rendering of 'Semi Charmed Life' by this guy.

Can you see that thing??? The one inside the plastic bags. Yes, yes... foods...

Couldn't stand eating outside...It's freezing... My hands are numb already (Next time don't forget to bring fork & spoon - Reminder to myself)... Need to find a shelter (After eating half of the food).

Peekaboo!!!

Yeah, that's me...

After tumbling for most of the time... Now I have to agree with you Stefan "Skiing is hard to learn but easy to master unlike snowboarding which is the opposite, it is easy to learn but definitely hard to master". What say you???

Me again... As usual, playing the fool. Luckily they didn't noticed it. Peaceeee...

Now, this is what I call a proper Snowman (just compare it with the one that i made in Mount Hotham)...

Keep your balance Izzy... Wait, wait, wait... Hold on for a second... OK, it's done...

Can I borrow yours???

Weekend plus peak winter equals to "crowded".

Since this is my first time skiing and I'm still not good at it, there is no point of me going higher up.

It is time to rest.

Come on, move..move...It is not moving dude...

"Ais Kepal" just add syrup... Any taker???

I really loves this place but too bad, we have to make a move... Maybe some other time...
P/s Something to remember...
Mount Buller - Ehsan Club

At first, I'm supposed to go there by bus but unfortunately the organizer did some mistake by allowing more people to join the trip without taking into account the bus seating capacity. Duhhh, so they said that they randomly picked the lucky one to go there by Tarago (Estima in M'sia). Do they considered me as lucky???

Met with new friends there. It was a long journey so to keep everyone entertain we played riddles, there's even a story telling session and not forgetting the ice-breaking session as well.
This is Mansfield. The prices for renting the equipments here are really high so we decided to search for other places. Managed to find a cheaper one and they even gave us 10% discount for students. What a bargain indeed.

This time around i opted for skiing. A first time for me.

Everyone else choosen snowboard except me... The alluring factor of snowboarding really tempted me to change my mind. Nahh, lets give ski a try first.

Many to choose from...

"Don't forget to put your name on the ski" said Frank (the bald guy behind the ski set)

The infamous tyre chain... No, no, no... I'm not going to do it again... Luckily we didn't need to use it. What a relief indeed. It is really a pain in the ass to assemble it.

We encountered another problem, there are 8 persons occupying the Tarago plus with their belonging then there are another additional 6 sets of snowboard plus 1 ski set. So the question right now, how the hell we are supposed to put those extra equipments??? It's already cramped enough before and now... The solution??? Just put it on our lap...Duhhh, felt like a sardine in a can for a moment.

The journey continues from Mansfield to Mount Buller... Yayyyyy...
In reality, I was very, very tired and sleepy. I didn't sleep the whole night. Why??? As usual, I finished working at 2 AM and the bus for the trip depart at 6 AM. There is a very high percentage that I might overslept so better not to sleep rather than miss the trip.

Here we are... Mount Buller...

Searching for a spot to settle down.
P/s I want to go to another ski trip...
