HA!

AHH! oh gosh sports trip was fun! i shall try to post as much as i can.


1st day

met dawn as we walked our way into the forum. met the rest there. boarded bus. talked and crapped. reached tenah merah ferry terminal and went on the ferry and it bobbed about alot! so andrea pang wasn't feeling very well when we reached bintan. then buses took us to this nice looking hotel. we used one of their meeting rooms for this reflection thing on like who am i type of issues and stuff like that. then the bus took group A to hiking. and group b and c went to our lodge and put our bags down in a temporary room. then we ate lunch at the carpark it was rice and dishes. i was in group 3 with jolene. so group 1 to 4, called group B had to go for canoeing. we walked to this like beach mangrove area. alex and i paired up. at first we were quite lousy at it and we kept crashing to the shore and getting stuck but after that we got better. then we did dragon boating. my hands got cuts cause kept getting scratched by the side of the dragon boat. we were like all soaked and tired. went back to the lodge. checked in to our real rooms which was 2014 and bathed. my bunkmates were jolene, melissa, alex, andrea pang, nat, annette, sharrie, yingqi, angelina, sandra ong and jean. del, dawn jiaxing, regina and jenna had to share an apartment with trackers. while waiting for others to bathe, we watched tv and the national day song played. then melissa and alex tried using the kettle to boil water. but it had a crack and leaked. then alex the paranoid took out all her mother mary statues and cards and cloth and holy water and dunno what and they were both screaming. so silly. hahah. so we went to change kettlenat was like the mother figure of our apartment. our bags were neatly kept in the cupboards our shoes in a neat file outside waterbottles were washed and water was boiled. i think our apartment was the best! hahah. then dinner in the compunds. we ate on the steps and food (rice again) was very dry. the end reflection was quite funny and interesting like people telling each other what to do for what activities and how to improve and such. we went back to the room and the rest of the netballers joined us. we all watched lost together and ate supper which was oranges and biscuits! :D very fun! then got one part of the show the camera zoomed into the as jiaxing calls him "a meat-ier version of gollum' everyone started screaming cause he look so scary la! then jolene went to bed super early. the seniors from the other room went back. then the national day song played again and we sang like super loud! it was like SO FUN! and so out of pitch! BUT IT WAS FREAKING FUN SINGING! oh my gosh really fun. then the male teachers were living under us. clement tan came up knocking on our door saying our singing very disturbing AHAH. but it wasnt even like lights out la whatever. then it was time for bed. juniors wanted to sleep on the couch. melissa and jolene shared a single bed in one of the rooms. alex nat pangsai and sharrie pushed the two single beds in our room together then annette and i took the matress of the extra bed and moved it into the same room so all of the sec 2s were sleeping together. we were laughing alot cause we were talking about how the male teachers are sleeping downstairs and crapped tons! :DD so fun. at night annette kept snatching the blanket and she squashed me to one side haha. (: oh and she whined in her sleep. ehehe.


2nd day


changed to track pants for hiking. went down to eat breakfast. it was rice again. gosh. took the bus to the mountain and everyone was like sleeping for the 1 and half hour journey. the hike was super tiring. annette and i have concluded that we are lousy climbers especially me cause we kept slipping. ahhhh! came back for lunch. (rice again). then quickly walked to that same ocean mangrove area to do team building. i think it was kinda boring la. nothing much. annette and i played 'touch' game super fun! ahhha everyone was like all retarded and high. :D went back then everyone went down to the nice hotel's beach for bbq. the food was great! yea but sadly not enough and queues were super long. not enough plates and cups too! after eating on the beach, the netballers played something like captains ball but not a ball it was a glow stick. very fun! except being dragged through the sand when fighting over the stick for kelda or getting the glow stick snatched out of your hand by kelda. :/ haha. then was the impromptu campfire. the fire was very very big. and ash was everywhere. it was sort of boring cause it was impromptu and stuff but the leaders tried their best to make it intersting la. then the campfire fell sideways to the ground la! after which had the group cheer competition thing very funny and interesting. by the time we reached back to the lodge, it was already 11 and 12 people had to bathe. so when it was 12 (lights out) 4 people still had to bathe. so mrs tan gave us 15 minutes. then the teachers were like standing under our apartment and we were all scurrying around with torchlights like we were on some sort of important secret hideout thing so spastic come to think of it! ahahah! oh ya dawn and del came over and wanted to sleep all together in the same room. so dawn joined the people on the bed. so they had to sleep sideways. del slept on her sleeping bag on the floor next to the door so poor thing. we like had this really good talk about stuff and we were discussing on like ways to solve it. it was really good and i guess it bonded us as a team. sleeping with annette was much better.


3rd day

went down for breakfast but it was oily noodles not nice. then very very long reflection and debrief which most parts i feel wasnt necessary i think only the sitting in cca reflection sheet that one was quite good la. that sort of ate into our free and easy tine. during free and easy all the netballers came over. the captains and vices had a meeting and such. we were watching tv. then the national day song played again!!! and we sang and sang. this time no one stopped us. HA! we packed up and went down for lunch as usual was rice again. :/ then we headed to the ferry terminal. went to the bandung factory outlet but like nothing interesting there. bought food from the terminal itself. annette and i bought necklaces! but i just broke mine lar! ARGHHH! i am super sad la i dropped it and it broke. AHH! i feel like its so wasted lar! WTH i feel so angry at myself now! GAH! :(((( then we came home! whoots.


overall i feel that our team has once again bonded and grew stronger. not only with the sec 2s but also with both seniors and juniors. <33 now all the sec 2s are addicted to the song (:


This is my home
She's everything to me
Grace and beauty
In all that you see

My island home
Wherever I may be
I never will forget her
Nor will she forget me

Chorus ^
And I will sing
A song of home
A land of peace
Where dreams are born everyday
My home
Wherever I may be
I believe
You will always be a part of me ^

My island home
Home of my family
This is my future
Where I want to be
(This is my future
This is my home)

Repeat Chorus x 2

My home
Wherever I may be
I believe
You will always be a part of me
A part of me
