August Chalet

      I'm really tired... but... i am happy... Just return from chalet yesterday. Though, to be honest, i had expected a little more than what we had over the two days... Never thought that i had a little bit of unhappiness in this chalet... But that was a very small portion, as majority of the time... we are enjoying ourselves... I am sure it is a wanted break for all of us from the tiring work/study life.

      We watched a movie, played Deal or No Deal, UNO, PSP Battle of Naruto Tournament, Kbox Marathon, Bowling, Watch "No-Sunrise", Had great food... oh ya, how could i possibly forget about the exercise-cum-fun arcade game of ghost hitting (forget the actual name). It seems to be quite few activities for 3D2N chalet. Its largely due to the fact that we could only start the chalet on Day1 late night & ends on Day 3 morning. There are time constraint due to our own schedule.

      Maybe i simply highlight 3 events from the list and offer a little explanation on our activities. Watch No-Sunrise. Normally, people will go to beach just to watch sunrise. Its one of the more romantic event IF it turns out well with the right person besides you. BUT unfortunately, we waited for about half an hour or more at the beach there and yet, what we get to see was dark sky. Only during day break, we saw the sky lighted up at other area but the dark/red clouds still covering the sun-rise. A little disappointed for some of us, but at least, it didn't rain. Hence i call this even "Watch No-Sunrise". Isn't it cool?

      Hitting the Ghost - Arcade. It was, indeed, an addictive game. Initially, we simply laugh it off when Nat introduce us to the game. After we actually played with it. We totally lose control. No longer care about our image, we simply living in our own world. Imagine this. Right at the door step of the Arcade, a group of young adults playing a cute game, creating a hoo-haa, attracting a small crowd. We don't even dare to turn back and look at the crowd. That is disgracing. I was even caught in a camera. Special Thanks to Xinyi & Xiao Di, Kangwei. Unfortunately, the video will not be released to the public. *laugh* (Those who had a copy, HEARD THAT???)

      After that game, we had our whole body aching, even till now. I actually slept till 11+, this morning. I was awaken by a call from my friend. It was fun. Hey guys, remember to hit the gym before we go down to strike back the game. Oh ya, out of the mini-games, at least me & Nat managed to hit the #1 spot for a game or two. An achievement leh... We played this energy consuming game after bowling. So, you can imagine the tiredness we had, upon standing in front of the game station despite having lots of enthusiasm.

      BOWLING. All four personal best records was broken in the two games we played. First, Xiao Di broke his personal records with 119pinfalls. That was his first game ever in his entire life, so breaking it was easy. But still, for a first-timer, he was good. I remember i merely scored 70+ on my first game. Up next, Xinyi also scored her personal best. (i will updates the scores after getting the photos back) Follow by Nat. All 3 broke the records in the first game, while i was still a distance away from my personal best. But in game two, i was surprised by myself too. A few misses, but managed to get to my best result ever. 179 pinfalls (if i not wrong). Though not high for many pro-bowlers, its high enough for me, the amateur one.

      Initially, Kangwei still say he don't want to play. After the game, he say "let's play again next time". The power of fun is really hard to resist. For me, i also have the feel to continue bowling.
