Amazing Race!!

Dear Diary,

I am SUPER tired la!! haha.. but had a great experience today..

For my 3 years of poly till now, I have nv ran or exercised till I almost died of exhaustion and dehydration.. haha..

A bit exaggerated la.. but really felt that way!!

Today went to MDIS with Raymond for an Amazing Race organised by the Chase Inc.. Hazel introduced us de..

Actually thought our job was just to go to a destination point and give out envelopes..so just stay there will do.. But then was shocked that we were the team leaders of each team and had to run along with the students at MDIS.. there were 14teams altogether..

sian diao la.. then felt so guilty la.. cos' I was not very sure of what we would be doing then thought we just needed to be at one place.. then told Raymond the wrong thing..haha

Anyway, the race begun at around 12plus..and there were 14 of us as team leaders and all got seperated.. I got the 5th group.. with 4 guys and 4 girls..they were quite friendly..

Our first destination was at Little India.. to find an Indian Shop and one of the members had to dress up on the Sari..

Then my group was very enthu man!! when the horn sounded, all of them rushed all the way to the Queenstown MRT.. and the distance was quite far..all ran man!! so fast!! I almost couldn't catch up.. it's been so long since I ran like a mad person..hahaha

Then when we reached the shop, we were so happy cos' we were the 1st team to reach there!! Then all of us were full of confidence and excitement that we would win either 1st or 2nd place cos only the 2 places got prize..

Then after that, got our next clue, we rushed.. and i really meant RUSHED all the way to the MRT and headed to Chinatown to find a medical hall shop at Hong Lim Complex..

Guessed what!!!

The organiser purposely tricked us by writing the wrong exit!

We should exit at the Hong Lim Complex exit instead of Pagoda Street Exit.. my team was very excited and too eager so we didnt ask the station in-charge or see the signs properly.. Then when we alighted, we saw the exit sign 'Pagoda Street Exit' and quickly ran to the exit.. Then the MRT in-charge announced loudly, "Please Do not Run inside the MRT Station.." Something like that.. so embarrassing.. haha.. the Ah Mas and Aunties were like complaining about us running about..

But then so damn sian la!!!

The escalator going up was not working and you know the distance from the bottom to the top was so LONG!!

So we had a while of 'mountain-climbing'.. the ppl heading down the escalator were like laughing and staring at us at that moment.. so embarrassing..

After that.. we ran all the way up and down searching for that shop and asking ppl where was the place.. then some told us the wrong direction and we wasted a lot of time on that..

Lastly, after some searching and asking more ppl for directions, we managed to find the shop..task was to drink a bottle of herbal drink.. haix.. sian lo.. If i knew where was the place I would tell my group le.. I'm also quite 'lu chi'..

Then so sad.. Cos' from the 1st team, we became the 4th team.. =(

But my team members didnt give up hope.. all of us kept running.. to our next destination- Paya Lebar Geylang Market..

When we reached there, we were the 2nd and 3rd team cos got another team same timing as us.. and our task was to eat a packet of Kueh Makmur..

Then from Paya Lebar, we headed to City Hall- Esplanade!

This stop I was very CONFIDENT and PROUD of myself.. hahaha.. Cos I knew how to go.. go there so many times le.. then I showed them the direction and we ran like mad dogs..

Think the shoppers think we siao.. ran till so sweaty and fast..haha

Then when we reached there, I helped them to take a group photo in front of the 'Durian'..at that moment we were the 2nd team to reach.. so very enthu..

And ran towards our next destination-Merlion!!

Oh man!! This was the place I nearly died of exhaustion.. the distance was so long la!! So tiring!!

Then some of the members especially the girls were like on walking pace already cos' very tired..

Then when we reached there, we became the 3rd team and took a funky photo in front of the Merlion..

Then our 2nd last destination was the Singapore River-White Stamford Raffles Statue..

This destination was a bit meaningless la.. cos nobody stationed there.. so if we lied to them that we been there but we didnt, nobody will know.. haix.. sian la.. but we too honest le.. then after that, the organiser purposely told us to take the Raffles MRT.. when City Hall MRT was nearer..Cos he said we were too fast and wanted to delay us.. crap man!!

Actually if we didnt go for the 2nd last destination, maybe we got chance to get top 2..hahahaha but so bad la..

reached there and took a photo and asked them 2 qns.. also crap la.. cos don't ask also nobody except us will know..

Then we rushed back to MDIS again.. haix.. so tired.. whole body started to ache.. dehydrated..

Then when we reached sch.. I called the organiser said we reached.. then I heard wrongly thought we got 1st.. then I so happily told my group that we got 1st.. then think e organiser knew I heard wrongly then called me and said we were the 3rd in place..

SIAN MAN!! cos' 3rd place no prize.. even small consollation prize also don't have.. I think very crap la.. cos' got 14 teams leh! only 2 prizes and the 1st prize was $400 and 2nd prize $200.. haix.. so disappointed la!! And sadded.. cos' my team were all so enthu and co-operative.. but really a bit xin tong to see their efforts all wasted.. and so weird la.. cos' usually got top 3 prizes de ma..

Haix.. a bit of my fault too la.. told them wrongly.. gave them the 'yi chang huan xi yi chang kong' de feeling..

Anyway, also felt very bad.. cos we had to travel a lot!! think spent like about $7 plus on just travelling on the MRT and 1 bus to go back to MDIS.. then they didnt win anything.. but at least we team leaders (the so-called workers) got our $40 pay at the end of the day.. actually was supposed to be $30.. but happy that we got pay increment.. haha..

It was a great exercise and experience..

But think this will also be my 1st and last time doing this event.. so tiring!! And a bit meaningless.. cos' the whole planning was a bit weird.. The 1st and 2nd team to reach the 1st few destinations sure win de.. and already confirmed so quite meaningless for the rest of the teams to fight for the top 2..

But surely enjoyed today!! It was fun knowing them and playing with them.. hehe.. had a great lunch with Raymond at around 3plus after the whole event, at Queenstown!! Super hungry!! He didnt eat anything before that.. so poor thing but super leh.. cos can tahan till so long.. and ran all the way too.. if it was me.. I would faint liao...

Quite worth it la.. cos we like only worked for about 3,4 hrs and earned $40..haha..but so smelly... whole body.. =P

Thanks Raymond..haha.. and so paiseh ar..

Thanks Hazel too!! =)) hehehe

Tonight will be sweet dreams for all of us! I hope!! ^^

I think I really lose weight liao.. whahahaha!! =D


BTW, I really wanna Thank MaMa for helping me to 'Gua Sa' to remove my heatiness, bought me a lot of porridge, herbal drink and green bean soup and Michelle for introducing me the 'Sea Coconut Cough Syrup' cos' both of them really helped.. And also to everyone who were concerned about me and kept asking about my condition, helped me and kept wishing me get well soon.. esp Raymond, Joanne, Jackson! Thank You!! whAhahA! I am feeling WELL at last!! Didnt cough badly for the whole night and whole day.. Yeah.. I'm finally recovering.. ulcer also smaller liao.. yeah!! oh man im so happy!! hahahahaa.....
