Lanjut trip Day 2

Woke up at 7.30am for breakfast at 8. Only Anne from her room managed to make it to the dining place...the others couldn't get out of their beds ^^". But she 'tapaued' back some food for them so I guess they don't miss much of the breakfast. After breakfast, treasure hunt is next on our activities list. I got teamed up with Ian Zing, Adelin, Ashok and Chow. Have to literally run all over the resort to find those stuff we need to find...but it's kinda fun though we lost. Among the 'treasures' include a starfish, balloon, toilet paper, the manager’s signature, an iron ore (which is found in the airfield some miles away from where we start), a crab's claw (which we couldn't find...or you might say, couldn't catch), and a Rhu branch. After finding all the stuff, we're supposed to find answers to 10 questions regarding the resort...but we got those answers from Jem's group =P.

After the treasure hunt is done, we're given freedom to do watever we want. So we played beach volleyball! =) It was really fun...though we were picking up the ball more than hitting it ^^". The strong wind didn't help either. Add to it the fact none of us really knew how to play and you have a volleyball that spends more time on the ground ;). Paul and Wy Keen missed the treasure hunt and volleyball, Paul because of his toe and Wy Keen of his stomach. Wy Keen even skipped lunch because he had stomachache this morning...

Then it's water polo time at around 4.30pm =). If you could call what we were playing was water polo anyway. It's hard for me to play...coz I don't even know how to swim ^^". Thankfully the pool isn't very deep, or I'll have to miss it. This time, Paul joined us tho his toe isn't any better. And we get to witness Wy Keen's talent in water polo haha ^^. Really had much fun in water polo...though we didn't even keep track of the score (there's only like a 5 seconds intervals between goals ;) ). Oh yeah...Zi Yang got his 3-4 finally in the pool (we've been planning this for weeks haha =P). He nearly got killed by Shan's cannonball dive in the last part of the 3-4 haha...

Today's dinner is BBQ style =). Now, BBQ is what we always have during BNOs but this time, none of us have to do the cooking =P. And no more complaints bout 'Where did my [enter your favourite food here] go??'. After the dinner, the resort's staff gave a performance. It's funny alright, especially the dancing part (Shan's still doing the palms-shaking-in-front-of-face move after the trip haha). And I still couldn't believe we line danced lol...

The last activity of the day was the 'War Game' or so they called it. How can us getting sprayed with coloured water with no chance or retaliation be considered 'war'? We're so helpless haha ^^. Anyway, we're split into 2 teams this time, and each of us was given an egg. We were supposed to walk in the jungle again (different route this time), across several obstacles, with two watergun-totting staff walking besides us drenching us in green- or red-coloured water, all the while keeping our egg safe. Not a very tough job to do, especially since we juz walked around the obstacles instead of through it (they don't seem to care anyway so why not =P). Needless to say, all of our eggs were intact except for Yih Seong's, which he 'accidentally' crushed on one of the staff ^^. We thought of pelting them with our eggs too...as some sort of defense =P. And Anne complained they were aiming at her ass all the time haha. So after the 'War Game', you can see each of us in two colours only – red and green ;). One of them even drew a cross on the back of my shirt ^^". Oh yeah before you all remind me, i was walking alongside Adelin during the game. But nothing happened k =P. She was so scared she didn't even know who I was at the start haha ^^". And while running the last stretch to the resort's entrance (our finishing line), she fell along the way. Sigh why do we have to run...not that it really matters if we won or not anyway (the winner is based the number of unbroken eggs and the duration spent to reach the end. But there's no winner in the end...coz it's juz to teach us teamwork, leadership, bla bla bla...^^). Paul, Wy Keen and Chow skipped the 'War Game'. Chow got infected with flu after the water polo...

After getting ourselves all wet in two colours, we decided to go for a swim in the pool to wash it off (the staff even suggested it to us). But then it starts to rain and we have to return to our rooms after a few minutes in the pool =(. Juz when i was relaxing myself in there...Then after bathing, we watch a bit of TV and ate most of the snacks we bought with the rest joining us in our room. Slept around 1.40am after we ran out of food ;).
