Day thirty-five

today was 'OB China'. well, to me its nothing just a few obstacle course. woke up, then went to see if the guys had woke up yet. and no, they just woke up, realised they were late and they rushed for the toilet. hilarious. haha. then reached the place. reached 15minutes late yet others too have yet reached. then turns out we were also waiting for the lsct students. shocked that they came to our school for the first time.

finally the event started with us standing in line and divided into groups. i was in a group called spongebobes. ice breaking games started. my group was rather laid back or in a prefered term by me, very boring. we had to think of cheer and when its time for our turn, only 2 people were shouting and the rest were mumbling. then we played more games and all.and finally break into lunch. had lunch at kfc. slacked there all the way till the obchina starts again at around 1plus pm.

started off with climbing this ladder and then crossing over to a plank and jump down. everyone started to wear this belt thingy around your waist and i find like very little amount of people have the basic knowledge of even putting it on. there was like sebastian and some other people helping others putting it on. i had went to such events like this including obsabah so i knew the basics. helped people like nicki and wenhao putting on their safety belts. i was the last few to go on. it was alright. not much of adrenaline rush except for the jumping down part as the guy will only stop me falling when i nearly reached the ground. i was nearly cursing the guy. then i started to wonder those idiots who commit suicides falling off from buildings and all. i bet they never think it through at all.

then went to have trust fall. the guys would be the one to catch you from your fall. and you must have the trust to drop down with having your hands and legs tied together. for me, having people like marc, sebastian and wenhao to break my fall gives me confidence boost and i just dropped down. and according to marc i was light and he felt nothing. haha. actually the trick was to fall off properly by falling vertically and by doing that, you are actually spreading your weight evenly throughout so that the people catching you dont feel the weight. but some people due to lack of confidence, fall off and landed on their buttocks which makes the person catching your buttocks carry all the weight. marc once told me, he caught this girl but she fall on her buttock first and his hand nearly got a fracture. wow

then had rock climbing. didnt attempt to climb as i had tried it so many times and decided to let other people who never tried it before. after a while, my group went off as we thought can go off as we heard someone say mr chua or mr ma can go after we are done. turns out, we supposed to stay till the end for the closing ceremony.

sorry
