Aw man, do I even remember what happened yesterday? All that has remained from yesterday, are the aches and pain from running around on the beach at Sentosa. Good thing I didn't get sunburnt, though.
Anyway, yesterday was a continuation to our orientation - this time, by bonding through games on the beach! (After the CAS talk and administrative stuff, of course.) I think I genuinely had fun yesterday, albeit very tired. We got splashed and wet multiple times, and got down and dirty in the sand. There was so much sand in my shoes, that I was literally walking on the beach as I went home. My clothes dried surprisingly fast, although my hair still feels dry from the salt water.
Apparently, the games this year weren't as dirty and disgusting as last year's - they had eggs and mayonaise, and I don't think I want to know what actually happened. Or maybe we will know what's going to happen - on Monday, which requires a change of clothes and shower things. Anyway, I think the most strenuous game was the bucket one. I mean come on, I haven't done sit ups for the longest time, and we're expected to lift a full bucket with just our feet? My shoulder hurt the most after that one, 'cos I was leaning on them too much from behind. The dirtiest one was the obstacle course, which I offered to do, considering that it wasn't very wide and I was small enough to go through the whole thing. We were splashed with water along the way, which made it worse 'cos then sand stuck to me like glue. I was completely covered in sand after crawling on the beach, and probably scratched my knees too. Why must the sand at Sentosa be so rough? The most vertically challenging one though, is the one where they strung marshmallows on a line, and you have to eat them - the catch, is that they're tied to trees. With a class of six girls and four guys, you can pretty much picture how it went. (I'm so sorry to the guy who had to piggy back me omg)
After that, we watched the animal show at the beach. I had no idea that it even existed, to be honest. I only got excited about the dog lul. We also had tug-o-war, which was surprisingly tough. I couldn't get a good grip of the rope or the sand, so uh, I fell once or twice. Our class lost, but ah well.
School aside though, I'm getting my birthday presents from DFTBA HOLLA~ It was a good thing I didn't order earlier, because their shirts are going at USD $10, as compared to $16-20 initially. I ordered Alex's and Charlie's CDs too, so yey c: Ah yeah, and my birthday was yesterday too. I kinda forgot about it as the day went on. My villagers celebrated my birthday in the morning, and I had cake at my grandparents' place at night.
