Looking at obs pictures. I feel so proud of cousteau. Shall finally do detailled post tmr(HOPEFULLY)
One week ago,Wednesday. 3rd day of OBS - Sea expedition.
Kayakking was very very scary. Halfway through, it always felt like xx and I were gonna capsize cause the waves were so big. So we kept telling ourselves: STAY CALM, STAY CALM!
After only 1/2 hr after we started, it started drizzling, then pouring. I have never been that terrified ok. The rain just kept on coming down, our kayak seemed not to move an inch, the waves seemed to be pushing us further and further away from the shore. Almost all the other pairs were on shore already and we were one of the last!!! So we kept our momentum : Left, Right, Left, Right until we finally did reach. Major relief.
Cousteau,drenched form the pouring rain, gathered and huddled together (Reese's penguin theory)cause there was absolutely no shelter at all and we didn't have our ponchos. I remember just clutching on tightly to my lifejacket and squeezing in a circle together with cousteau and thinking to myself: Wa this is what I see on tv sia, people getting trapped on island. That experience still stays etched in my mind, just cause it was so unexpected and terrifying and was probably once-in-a-life-time.
Fongx2 + elton were in their yellow boats and they kept going towards the kelong, further away from us. So we cheered for elton when he was approaching the shore! Oya, haha hannah was the one peeking out of the circle doing the reports. Was damn funny!! Ponchos came and we squatted/sat on the shore for more than an hour i think. After the rain subsided, we had our lunch and played throwing rocks with fadhillah and fats.
Took the short cut route. 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 GO! HAHA. Elton and Fong put fishes and squids on people's kayak wa... Supposedly their dinner for that day.
Red ants bit me like crazy when we reached jelutong. My mood just downplunged from then. Plus we didn't get to bathe and the tents were being annoying so I was rather angsty that night. Xiuxian also damn pissed off with the tent. We spent almost an HOUR doing them up( and they still collapsed in the end at night) Thankfully, thankfully, thankfully, dinner made me feel so so so much better. Christabel and Fadhillah's double curry instant noodles and us(probably close to 10people) sharing whole dinner in a pot, without using mess tins!!!!!! Had the time of my life. It really didn't matter at all if I didn't bathe or was stinky and smelly and sticky then.
Offered elton our vunderful dinner, but he told us tmr, we would COOK UP A STORM. Fadhillah thought, literally, cooking up a STORM. Retarded and hilarious. It was that night, that we also realised, Huiyan was clueless about fadhillah's name. Fatimah, Faliha, Falilah. HAHAHA.
They had their mass peeing session hahahahhaha heard about it and then fadhillah doing her saxy butt thing in the sea. Because of Ruiqi, our tent woke up like TWICE in the night!!!!! HAHAHA She kept hallucinating that other watches had woken up, so we all stepped out of our tents, and saw that there was absolutely no one awake. Omgosh-_-
I kept thinking to myself : Tmr will be a better day. And sure thing, it was.
