Teambuilding at Yishun Safra

It has been freaking ages since I really really did STRENEOUS exercise! I mean really horribly tough exercise! 24th Dec 2007 was when Parkway Team needs to go for Teambuilding. I thought it was a piece of cake just some hiking and games playing BUT NO!!! We were machiam doing obstacle course lor!! Look at the pix!!













The first obstacle was easy. We just hoped onto a rope and swung across like a tarzen. We had to land on a carton and no one was supposed to fall off it. Never did I imagine this was juz a warm-up! The killer was the 2nd one! We had to climb up the steps like 4-5 storey up to a 'lighthouse look-alike' after which there were 4 obstacles to cross. I don't have a phobia for heights hence it's ok BUT I got not much of a strength though I LOOK TOUGH and BIG! After being dressed like an astronaut and wearing that helmet which after I wore it, my colli said I look like a mushroom (by MSG), I was already exhausted and sweating like hell! The first obstacle was easy. We had to walk across the planks while holding onto the ropes. It gets tougher as we move on. The second obstacle was to walk on 2 ropes and holding onto the ropes. This requires more balancing and when the wind blows, you will literally sway! Still Ok! I tell you KNN the killer was the 3rd one! Halfway through this 3rd obstacle, I really felt like letting go and just allow myself to fall off!! Then pack up, go hm and freaking sleep!! We had to be HALF SQUAT, moved sideway while holding onto 2 ropes again! You know how straining it was on my thighs!! I literally sat onto the planks halfway through to REST! Then the wind kept blowing and blowing, I was like dancing in midair!! I really wanted to cry and fuck off! I sat there to rest for like 10min lor! I prayed damn hard that I can suddenly be at the finishing end! However, I persevere haha! Very drama! coz I was thinking if the rest can do it, why can't I??? I am not so fat and clumsy one ok! Finally, I pulled through! I bruised myself horribly coz of the ropes coz I rest my arms onto them. The 4th one was another KNN! We had to walk on 2 ropes while holding onto ropes but this time the ropes were not horizontally laid firmly but vertically hanging so again I was dancing in midair! I was really really gonna be blew off balance but really thank GOD I didn't! I pulled through again. When I landed, I was speechless. Too freaking exhausted! I rather run up and down the stairs 100 times then to go through the 3rd obstacle again!

That 'little girl - MSG' was really like a monkey manz! Swift and no sweat - see already freaking angry! That 'Ah Pui' I always see her like a piece of spongbob though she is 'Patrick' but she is really tough manz -also a monkey - a bigger size one! haha. The rest like 'Ah Dai' and NPK though never exercise also can make it - impressive! Poor SL really gana blew off balance. Poor Cho-Le who got phobia for heights turned pale but nonetheless she completed all - Steady! PMT - no need to comment, she is a cheerleader - no exercise is tough for her!

The last stop we went to was rock climbing. This is ok lah! I did the tougher one some more but still no sweat :) Actually some of the rocks were like stones lor - so small make ppl slide off! Fun!

Overall, I'm glad I went to this teambuilding coz I really enjoy hanging out with my br ppl esp in this kinda outdoor activities made everythg even more fun. Think coz all of us are really young ppl hence more spontaneous and onz! We cheered for each other, gave names for each other! Very fun! I heard my nickname being called so many times while across the opposite side struggling to slide though the obstacles which is 'AH FAT AH FAT, hurry up hurry up!' (by Ah Pui) haha Pot calling kettle black. Of coz I also teased ppl with nonsensical nicknames coz this is my forte!

My boss was also funny! You know he's short and when he dressed up in sportswear, he's machiam like a student. Then all of us were teasing him - 'How's your JC results??' haha. He cheered us on whenever we were done with an obstacle by humming the 'Super Mario' music coz we were always playing with our DS Lite at work!


The following Mon - all of us had difficulty raising our arms. The tellers more poor thg coz they need to count cash! haha. We could not even walk down the steps properly. Everybody was like fragile and 'untouchable'! Hilarious!
