SMU Volar! 2008

Kenna teepu race...Went there expecting an adventure race but ended up doing an amazing race. The difference, we took transport and had NO road marshalls or signages! We got lost so many times. $60 bucks rege fees went into cable car and entry fee to Sentosa.

0630-Meet up at City Hall MRT
0640-Walked to SMU Informatics System building to register
0730-Flag off
After that, we were running all the way to National Stadium. Went through Padang, City Hall MRT, Marina and then Kallang. Next clue got us stumped, cos there was a mistake. Still, we confirmed with a street directory before heading to bus to Queensway. Hollan there "-_-
Did a 40storey vertical marathon there before procceding to the swimming complex to dive 2.5m. Couldnt make it, Kai Lan did the dive for me. Thks bro!
Again, we bused to Mt. Faber, kena teepu by an uncle, alighted too late! Went round the wrong side of the mt. and ended up taking a lot more time. Capt cycled up the slope while the rest of us walked.
Finally cable car-ed to Sentosa where we went around to the Carlsberg Tower, Southernmost point of S'pore and then to the end point at Tanjong Beach. Mmmy and Papa suddenly came running with the camera towards us. Thks for coming Mummy and Papa, esp Papa who had to rush off for his date! By them it was 2pm I think. Didnt check.
Sorry if we made you guys worry, we lived up to our name; Republic Fruit Basket!

ALC Commitment Activity

This is the very last activity of the ALC 3D2N Leadership Camp. All who have been through OBS would be familiar with this commitment activity.
In this case, participants have to say out their commitment before leaping off the pamper pole to reach for the bar (The Leap Of Faith). Let me take you through.

Instructors gearing up/setting up


The Step of faith up the pamper pole

The Leap!



You're in safe hands

A favourite, the sunset over Sports Complex

Babysitter for a Morning

Babysat a church member's kid today. He was quite hyper, so I brought him to the playground (didn't want him glued to the TV the whole day). Here's what we did at the playground.
I thought him to ROCK CLIMB!! How cool is that huh! Later, he tried his hand at wrecking, oops, I meant playing my guitar. Hapspening!!

Pardon the quality, it wasn't taken with the usual D70, but with my nokia 6288.

RP Sunset

Was down in RP for freshmen orientation today. Fun, but super burnt. I think I enjoyed myself most during the leapfrog record breaking. More on that in the next post. For now, a beautiful sunset from the RP campus. Prepare to go green with envy! =)

Think

2 days ago, someone asked me a question that got me thinking about my faith. "U still go to church right?"
Am still wondering where I stand now, not been going for YM since Jan 2008 and I'm even going to miss Funtosa..damm it!

Note: Notice how strange that the 77th post (this one) has to do with God?? Freaky =S
