The smell had pervaded the air for quite a while. But I chose to ignore it and shoved it way back behind my head. When the smell got stronger, I would whisper to myself. hey, think positive woman.
It definitely stank of bullshit and I could smell it a mile away. But I blinded myself, yeah was blinded by the lovely scenery.
Mt Kinabalu, a sight to behold.
..eeek...
Then later smell a rat which intensified the ugly smell of bullshit. The chance upon meeting a couple friends who had been experiencing the smell too started the ball rolling. It was unintentional but somewhere somehow the question marks that have been playing in our head started it all and after a few gasp, we tried piece by piece, layers by layers looked for it, poke here and there, share here and there and viola, piece by piece the jigsaw puzzle slowly came together and horrors, confirmed our worst fears, yeah we had uncovered a can. What's this? Looks gorgeous though.

The adage that says curiosity kills the cat holds true. At least it did for me .. the smell of rat which was actually bullshit that was canned inside - rotten to the core. Being busybodies.. yet in denial, but we did..we slowly opened that can.... It stank to the heavens! We were bewildered and disappointed of course.. we had hope against hope that may be ..... We tried making excuses but naah... all evidence of the bull shit were in front of us. Something inside me died a little death... but it was ok.. In fact it made me realised that I had taken a wrong turn all along.. blame the view.. Woman, go back to the rocky but safe road.
Back to the can, yes, we had uncovered a can of worms full of bull shit! How was it that we did not uncover it earlier? OMG! Run ladies, run, before the worms get to us ......
May 2016, my short visit to Singapore. Love it..will be back one day for sure.. no connection to the story.
