So today was resilience workshop. It was at Shine and not Labador (or was it lavador or whatever...). So there was no public transport provided unlike for the la.. something. Woke early. Followed my well devised plan of - sengkang lrt- NE line- NS line-EW line COMBO! all the way till kallang mrt station. (Stops i alighted at: Sengkang Interchange-Dhoby Ghaut-City Hall-Kallang) The fastest and most effective way of going there since circle line to paya lebar isnt ready to date...
So we reached, waited for some people then set off to shine! Then played some games, like blow wind blow, etc etc. We are also asked to build the highest tower. After buildin we switched places!?!?! what!?!? then we also need to destroy everything and redo it again... and they call this the test of resilience LOL.
Theres also this ask for a chip thing. Where we have to ask for chips from 16 volunteers (which are peers). Junfeng sucks, he didnt give me a chip. This part is impt for the part on lunch.
Among our groups throughout the whole thing, we kept playing the mrt game.. where everyone chooses 1 station at the start (e.g. Sengkang, Buona Vista, City Hall, etc) you get the idea.. Then when 1 person calls the station name that belongs to another person, that person mus call another too. This goes on. The fun part is that when someone is called, the 2 ppl beside him/her GETS TO WHACK HIM/HER ON THE LEG UNTIL HE/SHE CALLS another station name. BUT if some joker decides to call some random station that belongs to NO ONE, then they can cont hitting him/her.
Ok, lunch at 11.30am. The lunch was veggies, rice, fish, some brown color thing which yi an says its chicken :X So basically this lunch is TERRIBLE. I ate the brown thing and rice only -.- I gave away my fish kindly to yi an. Then he gave some to josh. Then junfeng asked "why u give him only? what kind of friend are you?" I replied "just now u also never give me any chip!" Ok, we were joking. There was absolutely NO hard feelings or anger there. Oh, there was apple too and i shall not elaborate on this part -.- And the drink was nice, some red colour fruit juice, what was it? I don't know. What fruit juice is red in colour... or was it some syrup or fruit punch? aiya, i've really no idea. Btw, the drink is nice and sweet :)
Time for the real action. The first station was the spider web thing, where ppl have to cross over to the other side of the web without touching the "web" (strings). Much teamwork needed and thru resilience we succeeded of course.
Next was Abseiling. I was very scared initially. After wearing the safety harness (hope this is the way to spell it.) and helmet, i went up, climbin stairs and ladder. Even climbing that and looking down is scary enough -.- Ok so it was my turn. The coach/instructor/facilitator (whatever u call it) for that station is nice and he calms ppl down. So i went down the wall, holding to the rope and my legs walking down the wall. Its not that scary when doing it, cause u dont feel like dropping down at all LOL. Nice experience for me indeed.
Next was rock climbing BUT it rained. So we abandoned all other elements and went indoors. We need to build a 12 foot tall human tower. And it actually meant building using foot! stacking one after another, but the taller it gets, the harder it gets as no one's leg can reach that height.. so they need support in terms of sitting on another's head, etc.
There was also human ladder. A pair supports a stick and there were 8 of them. So we needed to support a person who is climbing horizontally thru it. The 1st pair have to move to back after they're done so they can climb more. Alot of effort, and resilience needed here as u need to hold on to the stick no matter what or the climber will drop ... Btw, all our climbers are blindfolded! cool right?
That marks the end after some reflections and feedback, which shall not be elaborated.
Went to bugis to eat. Ate at pastamania with pdg. I ate chicken bolognese (or whatever its spelled..) The chicken was like not even there... a scam for $7.50. Its supposed to be noodles with chicken and tomato herb sauce. But the chicken is crushed and few in numbers, hardly visible. So there was hardly chicken la -.- Then i went home after that.
Due to time constraint, i shall end off here. sry for the abrupt end.
