hellooooo. i'm back from OBS! actually i'm back home everyday, but yea, today is the day i officially come back! i'm starting to get used to the boat already, as in, i don't feel seasick anymore! xDxD muahaha.

to sum up all the 5 days, we did mainly high elements, kayaking and trekking.

i totally love high elements! and that's because i'm not scared of heights, and i find high heights very fun and exciting. haha. maybe it's because i don't get to feel this "tall" everytime bah.

but yea, i hate kayaking! well actually i don't hate it that much, i just really disliked the capsize drill. yes i know it's for our own safety but i got a friggin' underwater phobia! i'm damn scared of being underwater cos you can't breathe and by not breathing makes me feel veryvery insecure. but owells, i still had to do the capsize drill cos the instructor practically forced me to. so gahhh. overcome my fear! kayaking was damn strenous for my arms and shoulders lah. i had to use the right handed paddle cos there wasn't any left handed paddle left and my right hand is like damn weak lah. OH YES! my watch was the one that got caught in the mud aka "quickmud". like omfg when you step on the mud your leg will just sink in and in and in until it reaches your knee. imagine how deep it is. and when you try to get that leg out you realise that the other leg is starting to sink in already. quite a number of people lost their shoes due to this too. roar! but i have to admit that my skin was slightly better after this lah, since saltwater and mud is actually good for your skin. yea but the minus point is that i kena sunburn after kayaking, which the good thing is that i only need one day to recover. oh btw, my mom was complaining how hard she had to wash my dirty mudstained clothes.

yea next thing, trekking. ZOMGWTF the bag almost killed my shoulders. seriously. I BET THE BAG IS ALMOST MY WEIGHT LAR. so all along i was like trying to brainwash and lie to myself that there is absolutely nothing on my shoulders. so yea we walked and walked, and backtracked a few times cos we got lost. and tada! we finally reached the finishing point in 5 hrs time! i was quite surprised that i actually managed to do it cos i was feeling like giving up halfway but i didn't.. cos i think it'll be damn paiseh. so yea, i pushed myself and whooo! i did it. wahh. so proud of myself lah. xD

and yah, we had to pay $94.40 for the loss of items as a whole watch cos apparently we lost a life vest which costs about $60+. so each person had to pay about $6+. i think that our watch had to pay the most for the loss lah. it's like for washington they only had to pay less than a dollar each? gahh.

overall OBS was quite okay. yea. but i know i definitely won't miss that place.

i never knew this could happen to her.
she doesn't deserve this fate.
i miss her badly; i really do.
and she will always be remembered and missed by me.
treasure all those who are around you before it's too late.
