BINTAN WAS ABSOLUTELY FREAKING SUPERB FULL OF ENJOYMENT.

FIRST DAY
Reached at Bintan when the weather wasn't nice. I was raining cats and dogs. Mud puddles was all over. Cold wind was extremely cold. To add more misery, the bus wasn't up to standard. We expected air-conditioner bus and comfortable seats. But nooooooo. The bus was extremely small not not even spacious. No air conditioner at all. After a one and a half hour ride to the destinated place, Loola Resort, we all had the same mindset that the resort would be a nice place. BUT it didn't look like a resort at all. The canteen was absolutely awful. The ground was made of sand. Had lunch after that. To my suprise, the food was awesome. After that went to our dorm, our sleeping place. I like the dorm. Reminds me of camp. Softball and some sec2s one dorm. And the netball and soccer another dorm. Basically softball was so called an outsider.
Some of them thinks softball VERY anti social. So what ! Softballers is very close to one another. We go in a group. Hate us, we don't blame you.

After that had some ice breaking games. Softballers Netballers Soccerers and SlCers really get to know each other. Can still remember their names. After that had obstacles course. Fun. After that had kayaking. One word, AWESOME. I enjoy my first time kayaking.

After that we had dinner. Then had a Kampong walk. We had to walk with total darkness. Listening to the frog croaks, in some way i reminded me of how awesome nature was. Nature environment, anything can happened. You can be free in nature. Nature is like a land where you can get peace and freedom. Around 30 minutes of walking. We bought some snacks at the shop. The shop is freaking different with Singapore's shops. Theres no aircon. Its dirty and stuffy. They dont sell cold drinks but hot drinks. They don not sell a lot of things there. Their shops are linked together with their house. Basically they lived at their shop so called. After the shopping we went back to the resort and had our reflection. After sleep, duhh.

SECOND DAY
Softballers woke up early at bathed. The toilet suck at first. But soon realised that the toilet was awesome. We got to the canteen on time. The other dorm got there late. Dapat puji from cikgu tau. Heh.
After that went to Local school where we built a netball court. We help building it. After that we talk to the students there and took alot of picture with them. They were soo excited when we asked them to tale a few pictures with us. I dont think they even touch a camera.
After that went back to Loola resort. Had our lunch. Suddenly i started to rain heavily. The plan was after lunch we all get ready for the jungle walk and to the Survivor Island. But then it rained. So it was delayed for 3 hours, i think. Softballers and some netballers decided to stay at the canteen and just hang out and play softball and captains ball. Before we started playing, we had a small chat with the teachers. They said that out of all the cca's there we were the only one who has a lot of discipline and something something i totally forget. We were pleased DUHH.

After that we were sooo damn hyper we started playing softball and such. Awesome bonding time with my beloved. At around 4 pm, we headed out by walking to the nearby jungle. On the way there, i was damn pissed with the mosquito and someone's big freaking mouth who stands behind me. That person kept talking rubbish. I mean we all do talk rubbish, but her's was awfully too much.

After that we took a small speedboat and to a bigger boat. It sends us to the survivor island. Trufully it doesnt look like a survivor island. But an awesome wonderful island. The sencery was awesome. The water was salty yet nice. We could see the sun set. The Loola staff help us by setting up the big tent where all 30 of us sleep. Thank you. I didn't see the built toilet but some people likes it and some don't. Ozroon loves it. Haha. We cooked some hotdogs and some kangkong for our dinner. I love the taste of kangkong. Tee hee. We ate together and after the dinner we had our reflection time. All of us had to share some thoughts. After that ghost story, skeleton, tskk. Funny story. They just want us to sleep before 11 pm and not going to the toilet alone. Tsk. Slept after that.

THIRD DAY
Woke up very early. The sotfballers went out and sat at the beach looking at the beautiful scenery with Miss Soh. She though us some chemistry things which i can't be bothered to even hear. I had some runnning nose at that time, so was feeling a bit down. Anyway, had breakfast without even brushing our teeth. I find it disgusting and awful. The staff gave us a cute lunch boxes that contains fried rice and an egg with it. Mine was salty. Extremely salty.

After breakfast, we helped the staff to put down the tents. We HAD to help cause the teachers suddenly was pissed with us without any reason. Tsk. Boom netting was next. One word to describe it, AWESOME. It was my forst time doing it and i simply enjoyed it. We had to jump at certain height to the big net below while the boat was moving. I jump a couple of times. Scary yet enjoyable.

After the awesome the boom netting, we showered and then lunch. Headed to the local school again. Had a soccer match with them. Obviously siglap won since it was the first time girls there played soccer. While they were busy playing soccer, the softballers and some netballers too played volleyball with them. Awesome. Their good in volleyball. Our teachers was amaze when we were well playing with them. Haha.

We headed to a market where they sell all sorts of things. From biscuits to drinks to even shoes. Bought some snacks and off to Loola resort for dinner. Then goodnight.

FOURTH DAY
Woke up early. Our dorm when one wake up everyone magically wakes up too. Magic. Haha. Had breakfast. I swear i love their food there. Awesome. Went to the school again and had a netball match. The softballers thought some of them softball. I'm surprised that eventhough that was their first time playing sotball, they were better than us when we were still learning it. Embarrased much. Had a group photo with them since we're not gonna meet them anymore. So sad man. I was famous at that time as many people wanted to take a picture with me. Haha ! Famous. Tsk. Anyway, said our goodbyes. Shake many many many hands. And off to the orphanage. I thought it would really look like one orphanage and their place would be awful or even smelly. But surprisingly i wasnt at all. It was clean. The toilets looks good enough. It was an okay okay environment. Had fun there.

After we had a group photo together with the orphanage people, said our goodbyes and came back to Loola and had our lunch. Flying fox and skywalk and archery was next. It was my first time doing flying fox and i was extremely scared. I was the slowest to get down. But in the end i did it ^^v The skywalk was okay. Manageable. Archery was fun. After those activities, the teachers let us to shower. But the sotfballers didn't instead we chat and hang out i think if i'm not mistaken. All of us gather at one spot and had our last reflection. Spend a lot of time doing our reflection. I was happy thinking about the memorable things ive done.

Had our last dinner. It was a special one. The music was turned on and we had seafood for dinner. Awesome. After that we had campfire. The teachers slept early while we hang out. We were simply allowed to okay. We softballers were hell crazy and had loads of fun ! We were damn hyper i tell you. Took loads of pictures. Suddenly Kassim joined us. We started to talk and sing and talk and sing until 2 am. It was a blast. I will never never forget about the night we spend with kassim. We all treat him as a brother you know. He's just awesome :D

LAST DAY
Woke up as usual and packed our luggage. The sotballers took many many photos every where. Thats our speciality you know. Haha. After breakfast said our goodbyes and headed to the Shopping mall where we really shop till we drop. After that went to the ferry place. Some of us cried. I cried when no one notice. Haha. After that finally met my family and home sweet home.
