'Excursion' @ the Outward Bound Professionals!

28th July 2009, Tuesday

today is our so-called self-proclaimed 'Excursion'! a day before, we were discussing on the dress code... cool & casual =) *yay*

Ah Kel came with Donney in his car to pick me up & we had breakfast below my house before setting off to Punggol End Jetty. when we arrived at the carpark, rang Jian Hao & he couldn't join us as he was not 'feeling well' & will be on 'MC' duh~ =x we were issued name tags which i thought it was good as previously they did not prepare name tags for us.

our Exclusive OBP Guest passes!

in the end, only the 4 of us - FA, Ah Kel, Donney & me went to the Outward Bound Professionals!!! (AJ: OBP here we come!) the weather was super hot & sunny. the sun was scorching brightly & hot up there in the sky shining above us! well, poor Ah Kel... he wore a knitted cotton long sleeves top! (AJ: it is hot de lo... cannot understand why he can take it..) we boarded the ferry, enjoying the beautiful sea & scenary...

making our way to the ferry... *spot Ah Kel!*
(AJ: Look at Ah Kel, he can't wait to board lo...)

'Symphony' the ferry of the day!

dozing off? hmm... or hiding away from the sun?
(AJ: no idea wth he was doing, just snapped it!) *LOLz*

the journey was approximately less than 10 minutes & soon we arrived at Ubin Camp 1. we were being welcomed & then followed by a orientation tourage of the camp led by Boon Wee showing us around on the facilities as well as the prgrammes OBP offers... =)

this boat can take up to 18 trainees to go on a boating teambuilding mission

(AJ: Ah Kel is forever doing this when shot! hmm... Ah Gal so happy lo!)



during the facilitation... 'Dicey Business' game
which involves us counting the dices!
(AJ: forgot the name le la!)

after Dicey Business game, we had a shuffle in our groups & continued with the last game - Decipher the message... something like this. this game has strips of the storyline... we are supposed to guess who 'drives a truck'! LOL... anyway, non of us got it right.. given the time was so short & there were alot of 'Red Indian Chiefs' which i hated! finally, the whole thing ended... it was somewhat a relieve... we took the ferry back to land...

Ah Kel... still in deep thoughts~
(AJ: hey Kel, zo si mi?)

Welcome back to 'Singapore'!
