Current Music: With Me - Sum 41.
Day 3, 22nd April 2009
Off to Ubin, here we go! Haha, woke up super early to depart RP with our super heavy bags and water bags and jerry (I'm not sure if it's spelt like that, though) cans.
People were actually singing on our way to Changi Jetty. But I fell asleep. And when I woke up at the destination, it was all quiet already! Laughs, everybody were dead beat! Lol!
Even before we set off to Ubin, mosquitoes had already begin their feast! Most of us were hopping around, swatting them away.
Reached the court and we split up to begin our Land Expedition. Sub-team with Sasi, Norman, Mia, Sandy, Melko, Douglas, Cherie, Kang Wen. And I had to hone up my skills in following the map! 'Cause we had to lead the teams to different checkpoints to fulfill our quest.
Halfway through the quest, when we were at Checkpoint 3, Kang Wen came running to us suddenly telling Sasi that a monkey took his thrill-mix (our lunch when we're kayaking tmr) away.
But Sasi didn't believe him, me too. 'Cause ... Would you believe? A monkey? BUT. When Sasi made his way over, not to check his thrill-mix but to continue searching for the clue, he saw a monkey taking a plastic bag up the tree.
As his eyes followed the monkey, he saw it opening the bag and eating. Haha! And he began swearing at he monkey! LOL! The whole scene was super hilarious! Goodness! And we witness some pretty "good shows" from the monkeys too. Haha! We even saw a young wild boar. Except that it doesn't even look like a young. It looked ... huge. Haha.
In the end, we couldn't find the clues. It's super hard! God. So we ended up viewing Chek Jawa instead. Haha, it's a really pretty scene! And to think I had no idea how pretty these places can be! (:
After the expedition, we proceeded back to the meeting area and had a debrief. After which, we headed towards Republic @ Ubin. Some place which belongs to RP, I'd say.
AND GOD. THERE'S NO WATER FOR US TO BATHE. EEEEEK. AND ALL OF US HAD TO GO WITHOUT SHOWER FOR THREE DAYS TWO NIGHTS.
It's really a back-to-basic kind of living you know! The water wasn't even clean, not alone mentioning how little the flow was.
So can you imagine how the 34 of us felt? After a day of walk, and mozzies bites, but no bath. Straightaway dinner and sleep. Ugh. We just had to make do with wiping our body. :[
Again, another hard time trying to fall asleep for Lydia, Jazlyn and me. 'Cause it's so freakin' hot! Ugh. And all of us were praying hard for wind, not just the three of us but the whole 34 of us. Lol.
Our prayers were being heard, really. But ... way too heard I would say. 'Cause there's rain. And lightning. And thunders. Storm, actually. Lol. So the people woke us up to move into the shed and sleep inside.
But it wasn't any better. 'Cause I felt cobwebs all over. Ugh.
