Orientation Week at IH: Part 2

Thursday, 25th Feb:
Played Laser Skirmish. It's similar to paintball minus the bruises, we have guns and detectors worn around our head. Something new to me=) That night was Casino Night. the common room in IH is equipped with 3 gambling tables, quite lame though. but i had fun playing blackjack coz i kep on winning chips!!!



 Friday,26th Feb:
I had a free morning and afternoon coz i did not go to the water theme park.
Mini golf at night! another new game to me! we have to take a bus to the golf centre. it was fun at the beginning but started to be a lil' boring when we reach the 12th hole.




Saturday, 27th feb:
beach at Surfer's Paradise in Gold Coast. IH catered two buses. It's about 1.5 hrs from my college. I did not take much photos coz I'm scared my camera would get spoilt( by the sand). the sand is super soft and nice! all my friend went down to play in the waves except for me coz i don't really know how to swim. hehe, so i sat and enjoy the wind (like an aunty right? LOL). we had Janpanese noddle soup for lunch, the taste is exactly the same as the one i had in Osaka a few years ago.it was $10 per bowl though. came back around 5pm. Another theme party: Bath Time! yeah i wore a towel around my waist.later we played with hot water foam. we were pouring cups of foam on each other. It was FUN! I'm sure it would be even more fun if all my penang buddies were here!

Sunday, 28th feb:
Annual InterTower Competition in the afternoon. I'm staying in F Tower so i was in that group. i hate that activity coz i injured myself. first game- Dodgeball, tripped and fell on both my knees. Got a huge bruise on my left knee. later we played the chain of hand game. basically the rule is to break the chain of your rival group. our rival group sedn a big sized girl over and targeted on my side of the hand chain. it's like a bull seeing a red cloth and terus put all her weight onto our arms. gosh, obviously i fell down and almost sprained my whole arm..damn 'sui'. of course AGAIN, i cried la after coming back to my room,LOL.
the highlight for sunday was the "Becoming a Housie" event. we are divided into groups of 10 and had to complete the task given in several station. it was rainig heavily also. i came back to my room covered with mud and flour. had to throw away my clothes(old clothes fortunately) it's some sort like the games we played in Red crescent punya one-day camp. it was FUN though=)

despite all the malang-ness, it was indeed a week packed with activities and new experiences!
