We went to de Teratak River View by bus right after sch finish...
Which is de last day of exam...
I went home to bathe n have my lunch b4 going back to sch at around 1.45...
Then, Aina fetch me to sch.. We brought our luggage n backpacks along..
Aina even brought her pillow...
Ok we sat un de bus for around an hour...
Here's our itinerary~
Day 1...Reach de place (outside of de TRV area)
Sit 4x4 through de jungle into Teratak River View...
De ride was fun...
Iman's group was in another car...
They were screaming n screaming...
It felt like they're taking a ride on de roller coaster...
hehe =P
Once we reach de area that we're suppose to stay, we unload our luggage from de cars into de canteen...
Then, we cross de selangor/perak bridge..
De bridge was known as de selangor/perak bridge cos it connects both states...
De river underneath was de river that separate de 2 states..
After crossing de bridge, we're in Perak! =P
Then we gather at de hall..
De facilitators introduced themselves...
Here's de list of our facilitators..
SIR MOJI - Mohd NazriSIR DIDOS - FirdausSIR BEAR - ZubairSIS FIZA - HafizahSIS NAZ - NaziraSIS ELLAWe started off by playing games...
We played "clock on de tower" (moji), "tree and squirrel"(didos), "ppl to ppl" (didos)
Then we cross de bridge back to selangor to see our chalets...
We get de keys n our chalets r all de way up de hill!!!
It's a good exercise going up de hill...
Iman N, Aina, Izaz, Ling Shin, Peige, n Lai Ling was my roommates...
There's no electricity cos they use solar energy..
Electricity is only available from 7pm to 7am...
There's also no water when we first reach there...
De room was smelly.. as it was so small n there's a toilet there...
Then we wait up there 4 our teachers to settle our stuff...
We took photos n clean our chalet...
Then there's an extra room.. So Lai Ling asked me n Peige to join her...
So me, Peige, Lai Ling n Xin Yi were in that room..
We clean our room n got ready to go down..
Then we went down for dinner.. We have to wash our own plates, forks, spoons, n cups...
Good huh?? Train us to be more berdikari... Haha =P
Then we went back to perak side..
Sis Ella taught us that when de facilitators say hi, we have to say hello...
But if de faci say hello, we must say hi!!
We played "bomb" (didos) [we break de record! up to no. 35], "bang" (didos), Expectation & Reservation (bear), GROW (Goal, Reality, Options, Will) (Didos), chicken dance (moji), n finally we have to be blindfolded...
We have to walk according to de direction of de bell...
Sir Bear will be ringing de bell n we have to walk to his direction blindfolded..
It was scary... cos u cant see...
Then after that he separated us into our own groups (I've mention in de earlier post) using de bell...
We have to form a circle...
Then we have to form a triangle..
At de end of de activity...
My group got praised!!
Cos we followed our leader n not every1 orders at de same time!
Our circle was also in de perfect circle!! Eventhough we're blindfolded!!
Haha.. But our triangle was cacated 1 side...
After everything finish~
We all went back to selangor side, back to our chalets...
To our surprised... Our room was attacked by ants!!
There was SO MANY ANTSSSSS!!!!
De ants were EVERYWHERE!!
On de walls, floor, mattress, pillows n blankets!
It was a disaster! N I really hate insects!!
SO i juz move de luggages 2 de other side...
Then I took my bath.. Peige was so kind to teman me there...
She hold my clothes n towel 4 me..
After that was her turn..
So i help her n also teman her there..
After both of us were done, we went down to Pn Fifi n Pn Laila's room..
We asked Pn Fifi whether we can sleep with her n Pn Laila...
Fortunately, she allowed us..
So we went back up de hill to bring our luggage down...
When i reach Pn Fifi/Pn Laila's room, I realised that I left my sch shoes up there..
But I decided not to take it as it was really dark...
that time was already 12 sumthing..
So Peige said that she will teman me up de hill de next morning to take my shoes..
After that, we juz went to sleep eventhough our hair was still wet...
We got no choice... Got Pn Laila was already asleep as she's pregnant...
Pregnant ppl need lots of rest!
Unfortunately, I cant sleep 4 de whole nite..
It was so HOT!! De fan is like not helping to cool me down at all..
I was sweating until like I juz took my bath like that..
When I manage to sleep...
I tend to wake up every 1 hour.. =(
Day 2...Woke up de first...
Then I noticed sumthing I REALLY HATE!!
Guess wat it is??!! Yes... It's insects!!
I saw a really big BUG!! Eh wait...
It's not a bug... I dun even noe wat insect it was!!
But it was really BIG!! HUGE!!!
It was on Peige's blanket..
I saw it once I open my eyes!!
Scary... =(
Then I slowly move abit... Then I woke Peige up..
Summore she juz flung her blanket... I was so scared cos that insect might fly!!!
Then I told her it was on her blanket...
She quickly sat up n look at her blanket..
So I slowly flip her blanket... n luckily, it was still there...
I showed her.. Then she took a pillow n put it on top of that insect..
Then both of us juz jump off de bed n get ready our things..
It was around 6.05 that time....
Then Pn Fifi woke up..
We told her bout de insect..
So she daringly took de pillow cos de insect was sticking on de pillow...
Then Pn Fifi took it outside of de room n shook it off...
After that me n Peige continue getting ready...
N we went out n up de hill to take my shoes..
Every1 there was getting ready...
Aqeela was walking around with her towel.. Hehe..
Then me n Peige when down again...
N we cross de bridge to perak side...
We waited there... Then Pn Su n de others arrived..
We started doing Taekwondo at 7am..
Sir Bear ask us to warm up..
So we asked Aqeela to guide us 2gether with Ling Shin...
We were so semangated after warming up..
Cos Sir Bear was fun! He wasn't as scary as how we thought he was de night b4..
Sir Bear taught us few techniques for sparring..
After that, we have our breakfast at selangor side...
Then , we cross back to de perak side..
We're asked to go back to our own group..
So my group as I've mention in de earlier post, was ATTITUDE!!!
Haha.. SO semangat d...
each group do diff activities at de same time..
My group was scheduled to go for
flying fox first...
De facilitators who r involved in flying fox r...
Sis Naz - helped us when we're climbing up de shakey ladder...Sis Fiza - Helped us to do de buckle stuff when we reach up de tree...Sir Bear - Helped to stop us when we reach de other end of de rope...Sir Didos - Helped us to unbuckle to get down from de flying fox rope..At de beginning I admit that I was a little scared...
However, I have de guts to do it.... Then...
I really luv flying fox!!
It was so cool!! De breeze was nice n cold...
I went for 2 rounds.. Hehe =P
After we're done, ew went for our 2nd activity which is
Robot Race...
Sis Ella was in-charged of this activity..
We need teamwork for this activity..
There's a watchman, a soundman n all de other members r robots..
We must create sounds n not use human language to direct de robots..
All de robots will be blindfolded..
De floor was scattered with bombs (small n short cones)...
De robots r not allowed to step or touch it...
OUr sounds were like this...
EK EK EK - move forwardEE YOR - stopLALA - move to de leftRAWR - move to de rightCLAP 3x - pick up/put down de ballDe activity was fun..
After de time given finish, we have to create words form de balls..
Not all de balls have letters on it..
So that's why we carefully felt n chose de ball when we were playing de game earlier..
We got at least 25 words, I guess...
Couldnt really remember...
Then after we're done, we went for our 3rd activity, which is
flying squirrel..Sir Moji was in-charged...
This activity is all about how much u trust your team..
4 this activity, one member will be carried up onto de tree by a rope...
All de other group members will be pulling de person up...
de rope was tied on our waist..
Dun really noe how to explain but it's safe lar...
But so sad that I din play..
I only pulled ppl.. I din be de one who get pulled...
Cos I was having a terrible stomach ache.. =(
After all those 3 activities, we went back to selangor side to have our lunch..
Then continue back de activities..
So de first activity that was assigned 4 our group is
water tubing..
Sir Moji, Sis Ella n Sis Fiza were involved...
It was so fun!!!
But so sad I cant play.. Sara Au also cant play...
Cos.. Got lar.. our own reason..
So we juz sit with Pn Fifi n chit chat...
Our 2nd activity was
Pipe Line by
sir Bear..
We have to connect de pipes ourselves..
So this was about teamwork..
We manage 2 connect de pipes..
Our problem was how 2 flow de water into a pail..
De last part of de pipe was connected into this really large pipe that have many holes on it...
It was quite hard but we managed to collect sum water...
It was little but it was worth it lar..
Our 3rd activity was
tree abseiling... by
sir Didos n sis Naz...
It was fun!! Juz that de ladder is 2x shakier than de flying fox ladder..
De hard part is de time where we have to climb from de ladder onto de tree..
It was hard...Cos de platform to step on was really small..
Arizah fell but luckily her rope was attached 2 sis naz.. SO she was safe..
She was not in my group but I saw that incident lar..
Ok.. Back to my group..
SO one by one we did de tree abseiling..
It was fun... but our hand very hot cos got friction..
Then we cross back de bridge to selangor side..
We have our tea...
Then we play in de river...
De water was so cold n de current was so nice..
De water was like giving u a free spa session like that...
Haha... =P
Then we took our bath...
After that, we went back to de canteen for dinner...
Then we cross de bridge 2 Perak side..
Din tie my hair cos it's still wet...
Sir Didos started off with senamrobik..
Luckily I din sweat..
But de senamrobik was fun...
Our next activity was theme fun night...
We started with SWOT (Strategy, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat) (Sir Didos)..
Then we have to create our own dance n sketch (sir Didos n Sir Moji)
Our dance song was Hips Dont Lie by Shakira...
It was a disaster.. Cos of sum ppl...
Only Aina, Lai Ling, Iman N n me noe who..
Secret.. So wont tell u...
Then our sketch was about Robot Race...
Err.. It was quite ok lar... No comment...
Then all of us have to sing (sir Moji)...
There's 3 songs... I only remember 2 :~
"Standing In The Eyes Of The World" by Ella
and Pang Yao (cantonese song)..
De other english song I dunno de title...
Ooh ya.. When we're singing, suddenly got a cockroach on Jo Sie's shirt..
All of us scream, jump n run...
But i din scream n jump lar..
I juz walk away quickly only..
I hate insects!! =(
By that time I was so sleepy already..
I kept on yawning when we're singing..
Then b4 they let us go back to our rooms..
Sir Didos ask us to play a game.
First we stand in a circle.. Then...
We have to pass de takraw ball around with our elbows..
We have to try to pass it around n finish 1 circle as fast as we could..
OUr results???
1st round - 50 sec2nd round - 35 secIt was considered good!!
Cos our circle was so BIG!! Haha =P
Ooh ya.. Sir Didos also ask us to say yes when he says Sri Aman...
Then we put all our hands together in de center...
Then he said 3x Sri Aman..
So we cheered 3x yes!! =P
But I was still sleepy...
Then, those who wanna go for supper will go to canteen..
Me n Peige was totally exhausted...
So we juz follow teacher back to our rooms..
I straight away went to sleep..
N guess wat??
I was so tired that I cant feel de heat or anything..
I snooze off juz like that..
Day 3...Cant wake up in de morning...
SO tired... Peige also cant wake up..
Pn Fifi also cant wake up...
But I forced myself to wake up at around 6.30..
I woke Peige up also.. But she seem to ignore me..
After that, I get ready n evrything..
Peige also woke up n get ready..
Pn Laila also woke up.. Only Pn Fifi continued sleeping..
Pn Laila woke Pn Fifi up after taking her bath..
Peige n I were 2 minutes late...
De others lagi teruk..
All around 15 minutes late...
We got scolded by Pn Su n Pn Cheong..
Then we start warming up..
It was diff.. Every1 was super sleepy n tired...
All our eyes were half open half close...
I cant even stretch properly... Kept on yawning only..
Even Sir Bear was so sleepy..
I can see it on his face...
After training... We had our breakfast...
THen it took us a long time to change and go back to perak side..
De teachers scolded us again for bad time management...
Then we played chicken googles (sir Moji)...
It was fun n funny.... Kept on laughing only..
Poh Lian was scary... haha.. =P
Then we proceed with de next activity where we have to carry out a basin full with balls out of a specific area (Sis Fiza)..
Our hands n legs or any other body parts were not allowed to pass de line...
SO it was hard..
All de 3 groups combined together to make things easier...
We manage to carry de basin halfway n it dropped onto de floor..
Pouring all de balls out..
Sad... We failed for de first time..
Then we were suppose to make 2 words out of de balls...
De balls had sticker on it (juz like robot race)
We also failed in this section...
De 2 words were actually "dicipline" & "teamwork"
After that, we proceed to de tangled takraw ball activity (sir Bear)..
We have to move de takraw from 1 end of de rope to de other end without touching de ball... It was not easy...
We took about 4 minutes +.... We didnt break de record...
De fastest was 2 min +....
Sad =(
Our next activity was orienteering... We learnt how to use de compass correctly.. Sis Naz n Sis Ella guided us 4 this activity...
Then we have
