Outward Bound

So i came back from a 3 day camp at OBS on Friday. There were fun parts, and there were sucky parts. I'll explain below.

Day 1.
So me and Kevin met in school at 7am on Wednesday, as usual, got some idiots late as hell.. So we departed school at like 7.45am.. We were supposed to leave at 7.15am btw. The stupid bus driver.. Dunno take what route.. Ended up with a 1hr journey.. Journey back on Friday took only half an hr btw, and the traffic conditions weren't great.

So anyway, we reached the OBS center somewhere in Punggol, split into groups, had a little briefing and stuff, got our valuables collected, the boarded the ferry.

After a short 10min ride, the instructors told us while we were on the boat, to put on our life vests.. Why?.. Cause we were supposed to jump off the boat and swim to shore.. I was like "WTF?..." Haven't even step on Ubin shore, need to get wet alr..

Anyway, after that, we went to our bunks to have a little wash.. And our bunks were the furthest away.. Right at the end.. We went for lunch after that, and I tell you.. OBS FOOD SUCKS. Yes, the quality, taste and everything, just plain sucks. I would rather eat instant noodles..

Had to go through belaying practice after lunch.. High elements after that, heroes die first, i went up first lol. Was fun though. And belaying is freaking tiring..

Outdoor cooking after high elements, food was sooooooooooooo much better than the food from the canteen. Looking at all the noobs cooking, me and Kevin laughed so hard.

Kayaking expedition the next day, had a little briefing and stuff after dinner, then off to bed.

Day 2
Kayaking expedition day. Woke up at 5.30am.. >_< Met the instructors at 6.30am, morning PT.. Did i mention PT in long sleeves, trackpants and wet shoes?..

Breakfast after that, then kayaking practice. We had to do the expedition in 3 man kayaks.. God damn i tell you.. But I'll skip this part in case *ahem*

Rained after out kayaking practice.. Had to wait till 11am before Cat 1 was over.. By this time, we missed the window to do the cross-island route.. So we had to do the round island..

Expedition was going fine, until.. Sudden gusts of strong wind, and massive waves.. Me and Kev paddled our ass off.. The 3rd person in out kayak.. I've got nothing to say.. Burden..

Cat 1 again after that.. We stopped at a beach to seek shelter. Me and Kev were gaying under a poncho. Lol.

Set off after the rain. 1 hour ++ to reach camp.. I was dying at this time..

Got back to camp, washed the kayaks and stuff. then me and Kevin chionged back to bunks for our shower, then had dinner after that. Was about 7.45 when we got dinner.

Cant really remember what happened after dinner, but I think we had a little debrief or smth. Bed time after that. My ass was hurting so much i couldn't even sleep properly.. Anyway my body was aching all over..

Day 3
Woke up at 5.30am.. Again.. Morning PT.. Everybody was dying.. Some stupid games also.. Breakfast after that. Then back to out bunks to clean up.

After clean up, went to the 2nd level of our bunks, which is an empty space, for some reflection and sharing time.

Had one last activity after that, walking a rope with the help our friends. Instructors randomly passed a certificate to each of the people there, and got them to find the person who the cert belonged to and give it to them. Lunch was next, sucky as usual. After that, bought an OBS t-shirt, and it was time to leave.

Ferry to shore, said a really small goodbye to the instructors, then it was onto the bus.
Stupid bus passes J8, but the stupid teacher dun let me drop.. So had to take all the way back to school..

Took a bus to Thomson Plaza, went to eat KFC, yes, i was so desperate for some good tasting chicken, 3 days at camp, all 3 days they served chicken which tasted so freaking sucky.

Home after that.

So i shall show you my sunburn. My arms are literally pink.
