Finally came back from OBS so tired rawr i kanna SUNBURN now all red and my forehead's skin peeling off... Rawr Wen Sheng your fault:D:D (took my cap)
First day... (OBS)
Very tired went to school very early and qiu ying was late... haha. We then took a bus there which was so damn cold on the inside Valerie and Nicole talk the whole journey and some people like Arron slept. I was confused then if i have made the correct choice of going for OBS haha=X Its like you want "suffer" when you can enjoy life haha but u really look forward to getting to know my new friends=x
We took a ferry from Punggol to Pulau Ubin so cool nice breeze.
On our arrival we still still stay in our clicks not very open to each other. Our group is known as Battuta. Member consist of...
-Amelah
-Auriel Lim
-Azmirah
-Chew Yen
-Liyana
-Michael
-Jan
-Jue Yu
-Qian Ya
-Wen sheng
-Zhi Xiang
-Teesha
-Qiu ying
-Rai han
-Kenn Siang
-ME...
Wen Sheng is the first friend i got to know in the camp i think is through the trusting game.
We did some bonding games like getting to know each other better.
Next is trusting games, we must trust each other and believe that the friend will catch you before you fall.
Comments for this game: Cool. It made our bonding between each person stronger by trusting each other and from this games you really got to trust the person supporting you.
Then we were taught some skills.
*Outdoor cooking
*Tent pitching.
Commenting on the day:
I think in order to know each other better we must be open to team. And trust is an important factor to bonding, the stronger the trust the stronger our bonding. Overall today activities everyone participated actively.
Apologise:
-To Wen Sheng and Zhi Xiang for not trusting you all in the first place i think i need to work on that. And Thank you for not getting irritated with me and keep pushing me not to give in and trust you all. In the END i did it yeah!!!
Day 2
Learning to be organise in our packing for the night in the jungle.
We are also taught how to kayak, i was partnering with Kenn haha... Then the instuctors wanna play ask as all tried to catch both of them. Guess what me and Kenn caught both of them wahaha... We strong sia haha jkjk..XD So fun!!!
Next we pack our things and set off for camp 1... Bad idea we put the bottles onto the poles. So damn heavy so no choice me kenn and wen sheng carry cause only 7 guys and got 9 girls wads more wen sheng from BB+ basketball so strong haha=X And i died due to the kayaking my arms breaking off soon.
We reach there put up our tents in the Jungle and went for more activities. I did Snakes and ladder more of using arm strenght. Me and my partner managed to reach the top in the shortest time span and Kenn and Wen sheng did some pole stuff and both of them are the only group that got up to the top. Congrats to us...XD
What have i learn from this experience.
- We need to be organise so that we know what we have packed & what we have not otherwise the whole group will be in chaos. Teamwork, we need teamwork in order to get the boat fast moving. Encouragement is another important factor when the team is in difficult situation we need to cheer each other on.
Comments: Its really a new experience to sleep in the Jungle, it is really uncomfortable on the ground mat and 4 people sleeping to a tent very squeezy. I guess we have been too fortunate all along.
Day 3
Hiking...
It was so fun we didn't know we have walked 9 km. Throughout the journey we sing songs and we have forgotten all the pain and weight on our shoulder. It was so cool. I really enjoyed all those songs and appreciate those people who sang with me. We also have conquer all the activities in each checkpoint although we have failed one of it, we learn from our mistake and not commit it again. We have also climbed the tallest hill in Pulau Ubin and throw a rock that represent our weakness down the hill. I love the scenery over there.
We also shared our history and background which make us more bonded together.
After knowing that we are the first to reached our camp site. We 'celebrated' we have tons of free time and started gossiping haha=D I will never forget all those laughter we shared.
At night one of the guys tent was under ants attack haha=D Wen Sheng was so irritated that he came over to sleep with us so there is 5 in a tent haha we survive that night wow haha. Oh and at night they starting singing again the song heartless until the instrustor came to tell us off. See i have such huge influence!!!! haha
Day 4
Was the best day we kayak all round Pulau Ubin cool rite!!! Qiu ying so strong paddle throughout i die half way so pai sei haha... We sang on the kayak as well see i am so obsess with singing haha XD On the sea we saw a Jelly Fish it was pink said Qiu ying but i saw orange lol maybe i was colour blind anyway it was the first time i saw a real jellyfish so cool like a plastic bag. Right after the kayaking we went to the jetty jump so cool i volunteered to be one of the swimmer although i was not that strong. haha XD It was so much fun i jump when a school of fish swam past i jump down they jump up so cool haha:D Then later that night we saw a wild boar i was like OMG. I was so lucky that day i saw both the jelly fish and wild boar cool haha battuta rox... Timing so exact...
At night the reflection maybe you guys didn't know i was about to breakdown i dont want friday to come. While thinking of the past few days i almost cried i am always a soft hearted person. I think a few of us feel that way too (qiu ying and wen sheng too i guess). Kenn was like telling me not to breakdown infront of girls. But emotions is not something you can control. Just wondering did anyone noticed????
Hey guys have you all realise that Faisal is very obvervant? He can remember stuff we said for example the last day i was like saying the journey doesn't ends here and there is a bright future ahead of us and he remembered together with some other of our comments. I was like wow good memory hahaXD Hope i have make a good impression of myself in each and everyone of you all and hope i will always be remembered...
I will always cherrish your comments and will miss everyone of you...
OH ONE LAST THING I HAVE BECAME TANNED YEAH!!!! XD
Personal comments:
Bad-I must be daring to tell the person who is at fault so that he or she realised that and will improve from there. (this is something i must learn)
Good- I have been the backbone of the team supporting it. (singing lol haha)
Gerenal statement from instructor Faisal.
