Adventure Learning

yesterday was Adventure Learning Programme (ALP) day.
was super darn excited the day before that i couldnt really sleep hehe.
heard there will be climbing n jumping with flying fox n everything !!
ooooooooo shiok nyer !
yea i jz realized that i like doing these kinda high elements..
n i always thought that i was afraid of heights.
well i guess i'm not that scared after all.
weee~

okie2..
the thing was to start at 8.30am.
supposed to meet yas, shema n fizo at the engine bustop at 8.15am BUT.. u know.. JANJI MELAYU.
hehe.
i left the house at 8.10am but was the 1st one to reach there. -_-"
met all my other classmates at the bustop..
then yas came..
then our class wanted to go off to the AL site 1st.

didnt realize that TP actually have an AL site. hehe.
eleh. dun laugh at me lar. i know u guys oso dunno where it is kan ??
dun bedek here ah..
anws.. walked past all those super cool high elements n we got excited redy.. haha..
then suddenly remembered what someone said.. abt us wearing scarfs n hence we're kinda restricted from doing these stuffs..
but hey, doesnt mean we wear scarfs, we cant do the things we wanna do right ? like climbing n flying fox-ing right ?
i mean.. if u think of it that way.. then u'd feel that wearing the scarf makes u feel oppressed or sth..
well i dun..
besides.. the harness will keep ur scarf in place. so dun have to worry abt anything else..
except for gravity, that is.

met up with Dr Ng to take our attendance before heading back to the bustop to fetch fizo..
so.. after all that.. the programmed started.
this guy named Kyle started to tell us more abt the programme n stuffs.
then he made lame jokes.. haha. i think he was trying too hard..
but we laughed anws..

we did activities on the ground before heading for the high element activities which were held after lunch.

1st up was "Blow Wind Blow".
this game was facilitated by this Shafik guy whom one of my frens think is cute.. haha..
well, kinda.. but not really..
i guess, based on personal experiences.. cute guys dun turn out as expected..
or maybe i always fall for the wrong ones.. haha..
heck.
initially i thought it was a stupid game..
we all have stand ard a round canvas n hold the end portions.
n then Shafik shouted, "Blow wind Blow".
n we went like, "Blow what ?"
n he went like, "Blow all those wearing specs" or sth like that.
so anyone who fits the description will have to run under the canvas, across to the other side.
n the rest will trap these ppl under the canvas.
stupid right ?
well guess what. it was kinda fun.. haha.
so yea since i wear specs.. i ran under n almost didnt make it.. haha.
but i DID ! WEEE~
those unlucky ones took part in another game called "Tom & Jerry".
another sounds-like-stupid game.. but it was ok i guess.
in this game.. those under the canvas were the Jerry(s).
Dorothy n Aurelius were then chosen to be Tom(s).
they had to stand ON the canvas n catch the Jerry(s) who were be UNDER the canvas.
n the rest of us had to help the Jerry(s) by confusing the Tom(s).
by flipping the canvas up n down so the Tom(s) wont know where they were.
Dorothy did a good job while Aure gave up. haha.
weak arh~ =p

after that..
went to "Belay Sch"..
oooooh i like~
we learned how to become belayers for the climbers..
n of course, it brought back the OBS memories..
i miss OBS siaaaaaaaaaa..
i wish i can go again..
anws.. being the belayer means ur responsible for the climber's life.
so technically i prefer being the climber. heh.
our faciliators, Phoebe n Nur taught us the 5 steps to belaying..
sooo easy siaa.. hehe..

after that, we played another game.. which i forgot what it's called.. but it was fun !
we were divided into two grps of 10 each.. (ours was 11 cos shema jz joined us. wee !)
then we all have to stand on this square-ish wooden platform.. n we have to get to the other side (where another grp was) by using only 2 wooden planks n a rope without touching the ground..
there were several tiny square-ish bricks on the ground but.. the planks werent long enough to reach them. so yea.. with our brain power.. we managed to find a way.. shazni n me came up with the T-method.. n so, finally got our grp members got across bit by bit..
shazni was the "hero" in this game.. hahah wah strong sey budak tuh~
our grp was very cooperative.. each one of us conrtibuted by giving suggestions n stuffs..
n kaiwen was the "hero" of the other grp..
when we were halfway there, we clashed with the opposing grp..
then we cooperated with each other.. n got both teams to their desired destination..
fun siaaa.. hehe..
but.. since we took an uber long time to finish the game.. we went to lunch a wee bit later..
shema, hajar, yas n me went to techno for lunch since the cafeterias werent open for the day..

after that.. climbing time~
weeeeeeeeeee heeeeeeeee !!
Phoebe wanted 3 volunteers 1st so.. yi xiong n.. (surprise surprise) yas n me volunteered~
hahaha.
my belayer was hajar.. n i went like, "hajar.. jgn kasi aku jatuh eh, jar.. aku blum lagik nak mati tau, jar.." hehe..
so.. deep breaths.. me n yas were on our way up the long wooden pole..
while i was climbing.. i was like, what have i got myself into.. why in the hell did i volunteer..
the climbing part wasnt scary at all.. seriously..
it's the part where u already reached the wooden platform at the top.. which was UNSTABLE mind u.. (phoebe told me that when i was already half-way up the pole.. gee, thx phoebe. thx VERY much) n the part where u have to jump off n grab the hanging rod that scared me..
n of course i jz HAVE to look down n i went like, "0oh my gawwwwd.. shoot shooot shooooooot.."
the rest of my classmates were down there going like, "ok JUMP !"
well.. easy for u to say.. u are DOWN there n i'm UP here.. hello ??
n Shafik was down there, looking up n grinning like what..
i was like, what are u grinning for siaaaa.
me n yas were shaking like hell siaaaaaa.
so we decided to jump together on the count of 3..
"1.. 2.. 3.." *jumps*
i didnt get the rod siaaaaaa. stupid !!
but yas did.. wanna know why ?
Nur said on yas's side.. it's easier to grab the rod cos they hung it lower so u dun need to jump that high to grab it..
mine, on the other hand.. is higher.. so i need to jump higher to grab it..
-_-" NO FAIR !!
n of course, i was kinda disappointed.. but hey, i DID climb the freaking tall pole.. n DID stand on that freaking unstable platform..
n it was super exhilarating~
shema didnt want to climb at 1st.. but we sorta forced her n told her that it's like a once in a lifetime chance..
so after much convincing that it wasnt that scary after all, she finally succumbed..
n she went like, "i cant believe i'm doing this.................."
hahaha..
but she did climb.. n she did jump.. but didnt get the pole..
but she was super keduper happy cos she sorta conquered her fear of heights..

the guys together with lynn n angeline, took turns jumping off an even taller pole to grab an even higher rod..
COOL~
me n yas wanted to try that but due to time constraint. we didnt get to !
aaaaaah so sad...... *sobs*

we then moved on to another high element activity which was called "Rail Walk" or sth like that ?
i'm not so sure..
it's like u have to climb all the way up on this pole.. walk on one rail (n hold on to another rail) all to the way to the other pole !
COOLNESS !
eric, yas n hajar got to try out..
BUT i didnt get to climb !! cos the rain got heavier !!
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh *sobs*
n the programme ended there cos it was dangerous to continue the high element activities cos of the rain.........................................
i wanted to try out the flying fox thingy tau !!
but i wasnt too depressed abt that cos the flying fox thingy wasnt so high..
but i wanna do the rest of the high element activities !!
sighs
oh well..
i guess i'll jz have to wait for nx time then..

shema n me were thinkin of joining rock climbing when the term reopens..
hmmms..

yas n shema went home while me n fizo went to the bubble tea shop at pasir ris where fizo recommended the choc ice blended..
nicer than the apek's siaaa.. n for only 1 dollar.. haha

then took 21 home together with fizo cos she wanted to meet her fren n stuffs..
found out that me n fizo are like.. long lost twins siaaa. haha.
yep.. she's so much like me.
u wouldnt wanna know the similarities cos u will freak out.. haha.
ok maybe i'm exaggerating a lil bit but it sure surprised me. haha..
so if u hate me.. u'll probably hate her..
BUT if u like me.. then u'll like her too~ hahah.

ok i think i crap too much.. n i shall end here..
cauzz

and that was at.. 2:40 PM ·
