just came back from obs
whew
i managed to survived man
it was super tiring
and dirty
but our watch were like heck-care
got time to bathe also lazy to go bathe
=P
but it really was a very good experience

DAY 1
reached obs camp 2
everybody here were mobile!
separated into a group called 'cook'
fortunately this group consist of register 1-15 of 3/5
so basically i knew everybody there
then register 16-31 were in 'marco polo'
yups
and our instructor was Selamat

basically we checked our storeroom for small probs here and there
then we had kayaking which was very fun!
just that i had to wear this spoilt shoes cos i didn't bring enough shoes
nevertheless i enjoyed the kayaking
woon lue and i kept going the wrong direction
then we also did capsize drill and the rescuing thing
so fun!

lastly we pitched our tents and cooked our food
for me i only pitched the tents
cos cooking part got quite alot of ppl doing already
the food consisted of rice, sausages and baked beans
so simple yet it was like heaven!
after that zhiying, woonlue, huzhe and i went to slp in the same tent
next morning 5.30am wake up.

DAY 2
this day would probably be the cleanest day every
in the morning we learnt how to belay
about 10am we packed our super heavy bag pack and set off for camp 1
it was torturous
start only have to climb 101 steps
one shot i quickly climbed to the top

after that we continued trekking to camp 1
this place is so urbanised that u wonder if it's pulau ubin
the place is like a 4 star chalet
so clean and big
we had a short tour before having our yummy lunch!
the most important part is that it consisted of free flow of icy cold syrup
so refreshing!
we then went to do our high elements activites
while walking on the double rope part i fell!
then hurt myself with this super big bruise
but still it was very fun!

we then pitched our tents before having a bath
the floor was very hard so we had to look for rocks and bricks to hold the string down
there were a lot of insects!
so disgusted
i just shampooed my hair at the sinks and wiped myself clean due to time constraint
i felt so clean! =D

for the big bruise
i went to the medical centre and got an ice pack
after that woonlue and i went to pack our bag packs before meeting selamat and going to the tent to sleep

DAY 3
we hiked like mad from camp 1 to Mamam Beach
i almost wanted to collapsed to the ground!
the 20kg (estimation) bag pack was only my shoulders while we walked 12km!
if mine was 20kg, zhiying, valerie, gaomin and woonlue's bag was probably 25kg
they carried a lot of stuff for us
i was so touched
if i carried their bags
i think i won't be able to survive till the end
when we reached and we dumped our bag on the sand
i wanted to cry!
i actually managed to do it!
boohoo...
my hands, legs, neck and face had rashes :(
grr..
we pitched our tents and talked about what was were going to do after we got back to mainland
the hiking part was really very very very tiring

DAY 4
we managed to walk very fast this day
we sang and sang a lot of songs but only the chorus
lol
we didn't sing a full song at all

after that we did our raft making and quarry jump at the quarry
it was very fun!
our raft was quite pathetic
but at least it managed to float!
heehee
we jumped in and had a natural bath
it was very funny when we tried to make everybody sit on the raft
like people sitting on the barrels were falling off from them
haha
then everybody laughed and laughed
we dismantled the raft and jumped into the quarry again
it was super shuang!

DAY 5
didn't do much on the last day except pack the storeroom
and also clear up the campsite area
then we got our certificates
it's over
i'll miss it
but i don't think i wanna go again
i missed civilisation badly!
i'll cherish my lights, toilet, water, and home!

from this obs, i learnt that helping each other is really important. it can really change another person's day. along the way during obs, many people helped me and i also tried to help others. the feeling was really good and i wonder how we can survive without that. the care and concern ur friends give is really very important and it gave the the energy to stay happy. i think i'll have a better attitude after obs. =)
