HELLO.
Today was an awesome day!
I perspired, & exercised a lot though.
(which is a good thing, since I haven't exercised in a long time.)
EYF SURVIVOR - PULAU UBIN.Met YiHan, Jeremy, WeiChuan, William, Phoebe, Olivia & Zoey,
early in the morning to have breakfast together at Mac at Tampines.
Went off to bus interchange to gather, then take bus 29.
Reached the jetty & went on boat to Pulau Ubin!
Split into groups: 1, 2, 3, 4.
Was in group 2 with WeiChuan, BinHua, Kevin, YiMei,
JiaHui(Lee), XiuCi.
We were supposed to 'survive' with the team,
and win as many members over as possible.
We could also collect edible fruits found as a bonus!
So we set off on our journey to Jalan Jelutong (instructions given.)
Walked for a huge bit, then picked some fruits along the way.
Then figured that the instructions were wrong.
We were supposed to go to some other place!
Eventually, both our team & team 1 moved together,
and reached our destination.
There, we played a game.
Cones were placed in a zig-zag manner,
& we had to move (in a way or other) to the other side, & back.
We have to appoint members in our group to be No.1~7.
1. Balance ping pong ball on bottle
2. Hold straw in mouth with rubber band
3. Hold straw in mouth with rubber band
4. Tie 1 leg to no.5 and do a three-legged-race
5. Tie 1 leg to no.4 and do a three-legged-race
6. Duck-walk/waddle/whatever to 2nd last cone.
7. Run to last cone and catch water bombs that no.6 will be throwing,
6water bombs given, & we're supposed to catch 5 to pass.
(if we catch less than 5, FORFEIT!)
I was No.4 & WeiChuan was No.5, so we did the three-legged race together.
So the game begins and our group won! (yay.)
We won 3 points. only. -.-
Moved to the next destination, the starting point.
RuiXin was there and explained the next game to us.
ULTIMATE FRISBEE!
Basically, it's captain's ball.
With frisbee as a substitute for the ball.
& the catcher has to use a plastic bag to catch the frisbee.
Perspired a lot, enjoyed the game a lot.
We lost this time, but by a mere 1 point. :X
Next destination.
Olivia was the station master, and she explained the game to us.
1 person has to carry another person (piggyback).
The 'carrier' must wear a blindfold.
The person being carried will direct the 'carrier' to the pavillion nearby.
There, he/she will have to memorize the position of a shape,
that will be needed later.
Each person can only go to the pavillion once.
(excluding the blindfold-ed one.)
Once 5 person have went and memorized the position of their shapes,
they will use the shapes in the envelope given,
to try and 'copy' what they have seen,
and puzzle out the position of the shapes.
So.. we have to get the shapes in the correct position.
Hmm... Don't understand?
It's okay, 'cause I didn't either.
& the game began.
I piggyback-ed WeiChuan while he piggyback-ed me.
(not at the same time la, -.-)
Our team lost even though our 'puzzle' was correct.
(because we were slow. :X)
Last destination.
Back to the frisbee area again.
There, group1&2 had to work together
to defeat group3&4 in another game of...
ULTIMATE FRISBEE!
But before that, we swapped a few of our teammates.
Perspired a lot again, had a lot of fun again.
In the end, group1&2 won! (YAY!)
&, we also shared the prizes with everyone. (say we're nice. (:)
Pulau Ubin is quite big you know, we had to walk a lot!
But the walking was fun because people like...
YIHAN, joked to made us laugh, & made the travelling fun.
Thank you so much!
The weather was also very hot & the sun there is just scorching!
Humidity made everyone perspire, & perspire, & perspire!
We also fed a lot of mosquitoes.
Oh yeah, we also collected fruits like rambutan, jackfruit & durian.
Anyway, they shared the durian, & the smell was horrible.
Yeah, durian is horrible.
Finally, eyf ended and we went back to mainland Singapore.
But before that, of course, GROUP PHOTO.
(which you should be able to find on facebook/eyf blog, soon.)
Thank you Lord for such a wonderful time. (:Labels: i'm coming home i'm coming home; did you take off while I was gone?
