2nd day! 1/2 virgo, 1/2 redang!

We reached the coast of Redang at 2pm on Thursday! Everyone was kind of unwilling to exit the cruise, we were hoping we could tour the cruise longer, but we have to alight at 1pm sharp. So, took a ferry from Star Virgo to Redang's jetty, wow...look at that!

hehez!That's handsome saying hi to everyone! =P

Ok, this pix is kinda typical but at least it shows the beach. Ignore my "twist" sign... i didn't know what to do with it then.

Quite surprised to find that the place we reached were rather happening. People dancing, singing, shouting...ma'champ Hawaii like that.

Coming up next was snorkeling!! SO COOL LAR!

We're pushed down the waters so as to snap that shot above. However, after that we floated up again..i kinda feel something's weird. Didn't realised it until i went diving again. I found out that i can't breathe... LOL. My snorkel went missing. This picture was taken before realisation.

Never mind that, but i just like the waters and the fishes man. Such nice "scenery"! =P I want go there again!!

Even the ships there are so irresistible!

Yahoo!

Didn't know i could jump that high~ =P

Did i tell you guys about the meals we have during the camp? It's all buffet la!! The 1st day's dinner buffet included this! LooK!

Yum yuM! Shepard's Pie! Lasagna! That's why i grew fatter~ LOL. By the way, that's only the 2nd day dinner, i can't guarantee other day's meal to be just as good! =P

That's how our 2nd day went by... =)

Day 1 - @ Star Cruise Virgo~

WAHAHAZ!! Yes! I was missing from last Wednesday till Sunday morning! Guess where was I? LOL!! CAMP formed by SP's SAA! =) Director of SAA was the honoured guest to grace this event. On the whole, the whole camp was SUPERB!

Just a summary on this camp. It's a 4D 3N camp named "Leaders of Tomorrow Camp." In short, it stands for "LTC," looked like the initials of Leadership Training Camp. It is indeed not "Training Camp" as it looked much relaxing than a training camp!! Wahahaz!!

It started off with the 1st module held in school which took up to half a day. The module included a dining etiquette lesson and the 5 core values of "leadership." So sian, like any other leadership camp like that, but with a twist of "how to dine formally and properly." They specially invited a professional to teach us how to use the cutleries; even how to eat bread properly! -_-'''

Now, time travel...to 5th Sep - our departure date! My tribe, Jamupagwa gathered at a Kopitiam in vivocity, carrying our flag, wild card and barang barangs! We've all prepared our cheers and whatnots. So cool la! I love my tribe's cheer and our trademark..."Humptam Feya" It was thought by me, and fortunately my tribe liked that idea! =D

We were told to meet in Harbourfront at 2.30pm. Such lousy timing, the cruise is supposedly to leave at 5.30pm! We were so boring la! So we went to the open top of vivocity to practise our cheers! hehez... everybody was looking at us can! =)

Finally, time's up! We report to where we're supposed to assemble. WOW!! Sea of people! Aunties, uncle, children, teenagers, Japanese, ang mohs etc etc. Now we know why they wanted us to meet there at 2.30 le. Being typical s'poreans, our facilitators told us to leave our bags there to "reserve." =P

YeA!! We're on board after hours..report to our cabin of 4 each. Lucky my cabin mates are all my teammates. Among them, one of which is one of my best companion and brother in my team, Devester!! He's so coOL! We stick to each other wherever we go. Bo bian ma, we new to the places. Took care of each other as well, buddy buddy!

Then 1st activity came, fine dining with our director on the cruise. Wow, i had the nicest salmon and beef! Shiok sia! Follow on, it's slack slack slack until our supper. A buffet on board. Hahaz...we "stole" all the buns, cheese and good stuffs...Lucky no one wearing SP's shirt that day. We claim we're from NP. LOL!!!! *Sp in disguise*

Marking the end of the day was when Aaron, Nicodemus and Devester...the 4 of us went to an open lounge on the cruise to request song. They had a mocktail and relax to the songs they sang. *wow, how come they like know every songs like that.*

After that..we zzz...hehez...more up in next post! =)

fed-up

"if you think our airport service is efficient and user-friendly... think again" -Melvin

Handsome was supposed to attend a class at 8.30am. He reached the place he was instructed to at 8.20 but that lady die die only served him at 8.30am.

8.30am"Oh...it's not here, you'll need to go to Terminal 1 and report to the CAAS management office at level 3. You know how right? Take Sky train (then the direction to SKYTRAIN)" -Lady 1

So handsome rushed for the skytrain and appeared at that destination he was told. It turned out to be an empty room with lights half-lit. He waited inside, no one approached him. He asked the cleaning lady, she told him to wait. Yes, 34 minutes. My class starts at 8.30am sharP!

9.24am"Oh...have you 2 attended the lesson?" -Guy 1
9.24am"Erm, no. I was told to report here at 8.30am for the lesson and submit the form." -Handsome
9.25am"Ya, you'll submit here and we'll endorse the form. But you need to attend the class." -Guy 1
9.25am"Ok, we're here to find the class anyway. Where will it be?" -Handsome and his new colleague
9.25-9.27am"Just a minute, I'll see what i can do... (walks away and come back with a paper) It's at this place (points)" -Guy 1
9.27am"I think we really need help here, what South Pier? What seletar room?"
9.27am"Ok, Let me tell you. Walk this way (hand direct) to SKYTRAIN... you know how? (we nodded). Go to terminal 2 (my eyes rolled) and you'll see a carpark beside burger king. Turn right and left then you'll see a lift." -Guy 1 (We don't really understand but both Handsome and his colleague was looking at "Multi-purpose hall.")

9.27am"It's alright, we'll find the place thanks." Handsome and colleague

Handsome and colleague dragged their legs to Skytrain and then to terminal 2. Walked the whole stretch of Departure hall to find Multi-purpose hall. LOST.

Back to find the 1st Lady handsome met. Took the lift from depart hall to level 4 in caas office.

9.45am"I'm sorry, but can we know where's Multi-purpose hall? We are told to attend a class. The place you told us just now is only for submission of form."
9.45am"Oh(acting blur)...it's this way(hand direction again), take the lift to level 2, walk to the center lift and take the lift to level 4 with lift 1-6."
9.45am"Thanks."

Poor handsome and colleague on the hunt again to find the multi purpose hall.

9.56am FOUND THE HALL...it's locked. I'm already cursing and swearing. A note on the reception table, it says it's no longer in operation. The new reception is at CAAS, take the lift to level 2 to departure hall, then in the CAAS office, take the lift up to level 4. - the place where Handsome first met Lady 1.

Feeling despair, handsome asked anyone, even pregnant lady. She pointed that way, away from Burger King to the other end of Departure hall. Walked the whole stretch of terminal 2, saw another CAAS management..hope they could help.

10.10am "Hi, we really need help, can you tell us where's south pier? We need to attend an orientation class and we're running late. It's supposed to start at 8.30 am, look at the time." -Handsome

10.10am "ok...so, who are you looking for?" -Guy 2
10.10am "no, a place (are you listening?) We need to attend a service orientation class" -Handsome
10.10am "oh..i see. Give me a minute, i'll see what i can do." -Guy 2 Walks back into his office, and yes...he lied about the minute.
10.16am "I've called the person, but it didn't get through" -Guy 2 *you were calling the entire 6 minutes?*
10.16am "This is the number, you can try to call. But i've called. She didn't pick up." -Guy 2
oh, so my number can call through her phone, but yours can't?
10.16am "How about you show me the venue or where you get this number? I remembered the guy from terminal 1 CAAS management had a schedule on that. -Handsome and colleage *Doesn't that makes thing easier?!?*
10.16am "Oh yah, okok" Guy 2 (went in to print that paper)
10.17am "THANKS! By the way, where is this?" -Handsome's colleague
10.17am "Oh, you have to walk to Burger king, there's a carpark. You turn right and left, then you'll see a lift. Take it to level 3M." -Guy 2
10.18am "Thanks, we really appreciate that." -Handsome, not sure if he was sincere about the sentence he made.

So handsome and Colleague walked back that stretch again and..YES! they found it. It's "hidden".

10.24am "HI! Can i help you?" -Guy 3
10.25am "We're so glad we found this place. The orientation course is going on in this room right? We'll go in now." -Handsome and colleague
10.25am " I'm very sorry you can't. It've started 1 hour plus ago, the trainer wouldn't allow you to enter like this. -Guy 3
10.25am "we know it's already 10.30 am, but we weren't late in the first place. The staffs misleaded us to some other place." -Handsome and colleague explaining

10.25am "I'm sorry I can't let you in. Tell you what, i won't reject you 2. I understand it's difficult to find here. What about this, i'll arrange you another day." -Guy 3

OK!! I'm too fed up now...how? You tell me... and i thought Airport will be a much friendly and convenient place.
