G MAx ultimate Xtreme Swing

After our NE tour.. we planned to go to the central's Waraku for dinner... while waiting for zhengjue, jan nee and andrew.. i did sth crazy!! haha

was on alvin's car when he was suggesting to go for the bungee jump.. darren suggested to play pool while terrence wanted to go for a drink at the pub... when reaching clarke quay.. alvin was crazy lah.. we were sitting there chatting den he suddenly came back wif terence saying.. "i bought 5 tix for the bungee jump, lets go".. so dacia and myself was like... "ya right, dun bluff".. he immediately showed us the tickets... 200 bucks for 5 tix.. omg... thats where i start to panick.. i am so not prepared lor.. and i rmb watching pple "playing" the bungee jump wif cousins.. there were 2 types... one is the ultimate bungee (bouncing up down kind).. while another one was a swing (where you were brought up to great heights den being flinged down).. we all agreed that the swing one was more scary!!! and now i cant imagine i am gg for it.. like in the next 5 mins... and all the 4 of them are miltary lor.. tried air borne kind of activities de lor... gosh...


The going up process was damn scary lah.. we were seated facing the Singapore River.. can u imagine there is no support.. nothing to hold at all.. juz a seat belt around(or supporting) me.. that feeling is super duper scary okie.. coz we were tilted at the angle where all the weight is on the seatbelt (that is we were facing down the open space.. the gravitational pull and all... argh)... as we were bought to super great heights (13th storeys lor).. i started to regret.. dacia was like shouting.. "oh no i think the seat belt cant support me".. and i was like "help.. i wanna go down".. and alvin was the best.. he said "eventually, we all will be gg down".. wahaha (now i can laugh about it... but at pt in time i was like ya thanks ar.. - wif my legs dangling in the air.. body facing down.. hands grabbed so tightly to be seat coz i feel like i am falling down... the always so tall trees became so tidy.. the buildings were so small too... heart was pounding so rapidly).. my eyes were closed liao.. dun dare to open my eyes... den darren was asking alvin.. how u know when u gotta push the lever? alvin said.. when u see the green light.. u see its now yellow.. can see or not kind (i suppose he was pointing to darren.. my eyes still shut)... den we heard the sound... the ever-most scary sound.. signifying we reached the top!!!

Alvin was like.. everybody are u prepared.. at the count of 3.. i will push the lever down and off we will go flying down... i was in the dilenma den.. on the one hand i was like quick juz press it down lah.. get over and done wif... on the other hand.. i was like... oh no if he let goes.. we will be flinged down.. from such great heights.. oh no!!!

The another-ever-most-scary sound came.. when he push down the lever and off we go... flinged down 13th storeys!! hair flying all over.. legs dangling in the air.. hands trying so hard to grab onto my seat but quite useless (that was juz to make me "secure" tts why i dun dare to hold onto terence and alvin's hand.. coz it will be so insecure... i need to hold onto sth hard).. Ahhhh... after reaching the bottom.. it swinged high up again den down.. its after the second swing den i dare to open my eyes.. oh i SURVIVED!! i "conquered" it... wahaha... i am so brave.. i din scream at all ok.. haha... terence was shouting vulgarities while gg down.. dacia was screaming (which calmed me down abit like 0.0000001%.. i dunno why)

The after effect was.. stomach churning.. argh... the free fall and adrenaline rush was definitely thrilling and exciting (not forgetting the terrifying part!!)... Great experience!! well done gwen... hehe... but damn ex lah.. 40 bucks for juz like 5-6 mins..

den we proceed to waraku for dinner.. i was so hungry.. was so busy b4 the NE tour tt i din haf time for lunch... but after the ride.. my stomach was churning badly.. although hungry but i dun haf appetite to eat.. was better after awhile of chats.. haha...

After work Branch Outing

Yest, we had our first br outing (less hy, ys and boss - all unable to make it) after work (organized by me.. hehe).. suppose to set sail at 5pm sharp.. but i was so busy on fri.. left at 5.30 instead.. reached Sakura @ Orchard shopping center for dinner buffet.. I dun deny the variety is large.. ranging from fried food to peranakan food to crabs, oysters to dian xin to sushi to sashimi to satay to western food like fillet, chicken chops etc to snacks like durian puffs, nonya kuehs to ice cream to cakes... but i think the food quality is bad.. and i had to admit i din try lots of things.. din try prawns coz it dun look fresh.. din try the nonya kuehs coz they lok very dry (kinda like left there from morning till now de).. din try the dian xin coz i am full already.. the crabs are not nice coz there is not much crab meat.. the western stuff and satay are not too bad.. durian puff and the others that i tried was so so..

Overall, i dun think its worth 30 bucks (which includes an additional of 2 bucks for fri nite and another 2 bucks for Orchard outlet).. food quality is just one aspect.. its too rowdy like a market... so noisy like supermarket... and pple nv queue up.. they just cut ur queue and rushed for their food as if they were starved for few days liao... its oso kinda sqeuezy as the walking space between ur table and the next table is so limited...



After dinner, we (all except the NSFs) headed towards Partworld at Int building for ktv... 9pm to midnite.. wahaha... david and myself spent most of the time holding on to the mic.. coz nobody wants to sing.. occassionally adrian will sing abit here and there (coz he dunno how to read many chi characters) and ph helped out for few songs.. din manage to convince Joyce and Jane to sing!! wasted.. haa.. coz they said they were there to hear us sing..
Took a cab home after tt.. hmm... midnite charges.. heart pain sia... surcharge of 50% leh!!! but nvm lah.. once in a blue moon.. long time since i took a cab..
I had lots of fun today.. good unwinding session where we juz tok cock sing song and play mahjong.. had been very stressful and busy at work and i need a good laugh, a shopping trip, a meet up wif friends.. and most importantly, my weekends to recharge my battery!!

G1 retreat + pride day

Met maj david for breakfast at saltwater-- Le meridien's hotel (changi)... the buffet breakfast there was so so onli.. Its my very first time having breakfast in Sg's hotel.. wahaha.. When i am overseas.. "enjoying" the breakfast at their hotel.. i always wondered wat would be served in our hotel (fantasizing all the yummy yummy foodie).. it turned out to be quite disappointing, considering its a 4 star hotel.. I feel the spread was pretty little.. wif bee hoon (which david says it isnt nice at all), hashbrowns, saugages (those cheapo kind), grilled fish (which is too saltish), and the standard bread and omelette stall... tts all...

Rushed to changi haven coz we are supposed to haf a retreat over there... my first time attending a retreat.. a mini one i would say..haha.. (Anw, i will haf a feel of a real retreat in Jan).. Following that, we went to changi v for lunch.. jan nee and darren joined us for desert.. I tried the chicken cutlet ipoh hor fun.. was quite nice but the weather was too freaking hot.. it was so unbearable tt i couldnt swallow anything except the icy cold sugar cane drink..

Had our pride day at 2pm.. Joyce, Poh hong and Adrian finally arrived.. can u imagine.. they took bus 67 from office to tamp interchange.. their whole journey to changi haven was easily a 2.5 hrs!!!! Anw, as cpt yong meng from AOMC jio me, i took part in the treasure hunt.. we combed the whole stretch of changi.. under the hot scorching sun!! oh man.. the scope was really too big!! right from changi v to the yatch club.. maddness... anw.. we managed to find our pots of treasures after walking (followed by dragging my feet) to and fro.. wahaha... we got second.. wif a pathetic 5 bucks popular voucher each.. for our wits project, R&A got second too.. hee... first was none other than CPC.. congrats to karin's dept..

Had bbq and happy hr after tt.. overall.. i had lots of fun.. met karin, karen and steffaine.. oso met some of the CO's PA in person.. alwats laise wif them but dunno how they look.. haha.. Once again.. i look like a lobster.. sigh..

oh btw.. seaview chalet is nice.. after the renovation, its real new and nice.. can consider booking it.. think there shld be 2 rooms at the second floor... while the cleaners are doing their rounds.. we juz peeped at the living room.. not very very spacious but not too cramp either.. can easily house around 20 pax? (abit smaller than NSRCC's living room but definitely bigger than many of the chalets.. There are 2 air cons and guess wat.. they haf plasma tv lor and a majong table.. haha..

On the whole, this event was great.. getaway from work and a know more pple session.. another plus pt.. its so near my hse!! hehe.. but my br pple.. Joyce, Poh hong, Dave and Adrian had a "hard time" gg back..
