DAY 3, 24th Feb
we woke up at around the same time ,
then we had high element activities.
it was soooooooooooo fun.
i partner kai to do the high elements and it was really quite easy!!!!!!
as in NOT VERY EASY, but manageable.
we were helping each other up.
and both of us got to the top!
WOOOOOO YEAH!
we took many pictures too :D
then we drop off.
muahah.
as i were climbign, my heart was jumping.
:p
heeehee.
when we cmae down, we helped in doing the belaying stuffs.
and being a rope manager and all that.
at the same time, we were guiding our friends upp to the top.
screaming and screaming.
wahahahah.
after like an hour plus, we rested and soon,
we started our trek.
we had to decide the path which we wanted to take,
and since we only wanted to go to 3 checkpoints,
we had to do some challenge at each checkpoints.
jo and i led them to the first checkpoint.
the bags that we carried was really really heavy,
and everybody was tired and whiny.
but we persevered on to the first check point.
saw raleigh over theere and then we did our challenge.
we kept changing navigators to lead us to different checkpoints.
and tedddy was sooooooo irritatinggggg.....
he kept saying "maybe" in his funny tone.
hahahahaah,
but he's reallllly niceeeee!
and cereal monster was just following behind us :)
we went to this granite quarry where we could see singapore./
the town area!
but the quarry alone was beautiful.
and over there,teddy told us another story.
we had to shout too.
and we would hear the acho.
hahahaha,
finally after so long,
we joined the rest of team 2 alpha at camp 3,..
we pitched our tents, then had briefing for the next day sea expedition.
instructor ben (spoiler) was doing the briefing.
heeheee,
then we chose our sea ex leaderss, and then like soon,
the night fall.
couldn't see very clearly cos it was quite dark.
then all of us started to coook.
it was that time when we realised we had ants attack.
ants was crawling all over our bags and stuuffs.
they went inside our bags too.
it was an infestation.
we got so stressed i tell you.;
but we went to cook first and told teddy.
after eating, we washed up a bit using sea water, as there is no toilet there at all,
we went to clear the area;.
but we havent had much time because we had anotehre briefing ..
so we only managed to do it after everything.
when every other watches were asleep.
so we slept about 12 plus 1,
and we had powder bath.
cos there's no shower :/
and then my tent had to wake up at 4am again to do our centry duty.
we had to walk around to ensure safety and blah.
all watches took turns.
our duty was until 4.30,
and after we were done, pong, siti and di went back to sleep while jo and i did other things.
unpitched our tents and blah.
we had to carry the tent bags into the speed boat,
and so we formed one whole line of chain to pass all the bags down.
we did the same for the kayak boats too.
but then suddenly it was high tide and it kinda driifted our kayaks away.
so the few of us who were at the sea area was pushing the kayaks to the back as quickly as we could.
spoileer came to help us also ^^
heehee.
after all the stuffs were ready,
the whole alpha went into the sea, linked arms, formed one big circle and had a briefing with one of the instructors.
i think it was muru.
hahah.
then blah blah blah.
it was really quite cold cos we had to go quite deep down :/
then we started our kayaking.
at first it was still quite okay,.
but as time goes by,
it got tiring.
we had to keep applying sun block regularly,
and like keep stearing our kayaks.
after we passed the scary and hard part, we took a rest on this island.
it was very funny because during the break,
quuite a lot of people went into the sea and tried to pee.
HAHAHA.
they formed like a line, and squatted down together.
MUAHAHAHA.
we continueed to set offff to camp 2,
and the last part,
everybody's morale was really low.
but when we all saw the red roof,
we got excited and started to move faster.
at long last,we reached camp 2 and we started to bring the kayaks for a wash.
it waaas very tiring cos the kayaks were very heavy lah;.
there was many things to do,
then like spoiler and teddy spray at us at the same time as they spray the boat.
wahha,
after we finished, we gathered in a circle again,
hands around each otehr.
spoiler was being irritating,
he thought marshal and i was too short to put our hands on him so he purposely bend down -.-
sigh.
then we had JETTTTY JUMP.
IT WAS FREAKING FUNNNNNNNNNNN!
though it was scary, it was dreakingggggggg funnnnnn!
ogmoshomgosoomgshoh.
once in a lifetime.
