dont dare to rubbbb =\
DAY TWO
- kayak one star course -
was supposed to be there at 10.
bloody woke up at 9.
didnt manage to hear the alarm.
argh.
hate it when that happens.
rushed all the way there.
got there 3mins passed 10.
haha.
not too bad.
there were 2guys that wenta get breakfastcame back late.
D asked why i came late.
haha.
i gave a stupid answer.
so anyway.
yea.
had a briefing.
and we werent going to the open waters just yet.
were going to the bumboats' yard at the back =\
EEKS.
dirtydirty.
and OILY and SMELLY.
cus' he didnt wana have to start the day off
saving so many helpless souls yet again.
so yea.
we suffered in the gross waters.
at least we didnt have to do the capsize drill in there.
yuck.
it'll be totally horrid.
2 guys capsized inside though.
the sun was gentle for the time being.
head off for early lunch.
as usual.
dripping wet.
hehe.
the five of us again.
omg.
i ate so much.
noodles and extra bowl of fried wanton.
YES. i know.
fattness to the max.
but whatever.
D was sitting opposite me and stole one of my wantons.
gary took one too.
D was telling all sorts of stories.
and gary was being gross.
mr A was quietly enjoying his meal.
drank a huge mug of grass jelly.
off we went.
back to the sea.
headed to sea after lunch.
was damn full.
thought i wont survive.
but i managed.
hmm.
taught us how to surf.
there was damn alot of extra and free time.
so he kinda taught us how to surf.
cant remember the name of that stroke alr.
but anyway.
yea.
SURFING was DAMN FUN!
rawks to the MAXX.
serious.
should try.
its TOTALLLLYYYY WOOOHOOO.
shiok BO.
hahahahahaa
imagine surfing in a kayak!
rawwwks.
okay.
not as if spore as high waves.
but when a huge ship sails by.
there's bigger waves..
big enough to surf on it and
cause WILD and choppy waters.
so yea.
there were quite a no. of big ships crossing.
so caused quite a pandemonium in the waters.
and it was damn fun to ride the waves!
hahaha.
well i was daring.
chased one of the big waves.
and ended up capsized.
MUAHAHAA!
-in front of the instructor- =\
at first he was saying
"yeayea! that's it! you're doing it right!
you can go four star course alr....................."
and i capsized.
AHAHAAHAA.
came up out of the water
LAUGHING my head off.
omg.
cus' surfing was actually a fourstar course
but time permittedso he taught us loads more
than what we were suppose to know for a one star.
haha.
ohman.
i was busy laughing like crap.
swam to the front of my boat and shouted for help while laughing.
wha.
best everyone was laughing too
and took so long to come to my rescue.
guess who came.
the two guys who capsized the day before.
mr A and the other one,
B i guess.
hahaha.
so much for crying out loud.
totally WRONG time to capsize.
the waters were CHOPPY like anything.
felt as though i swallowed gallons of saltwater or smthng.
seriously.
my head kept being squashed under the waves.
damn.
and the life-vest kept brushing roughly against my top ear hole.
saltwater plus this = infection.
but miraculously,it was stil fine after that.
Thank God.
okay.
then after that we had to capsizedo rescue drill again.
cus' he finished teaching and there was nothing else to do.
but the waves were stil super rough and mad.
paired up with my friend jocelyn again.
gosh.
we had one helluva time.
hahaha.
managed to empty one boat and turn it over.
then she tried to get in.
but she couldnt manage.
so i got in first.
wasnt able to help her to get her boat drained.
so we needed the help of the guys once again.
cus' i was half seasick + tired from trying to overcome the waves.
was damn tiring.
trapping water, keeping head outta the water,draining the boat.
was a great challenge.
the instructor said fourstar had to do it in .5m of waves.
which was double the waves we were in.
OMG. just drown.
haha. anyway.
so she manage to get back in her boat too.
and we were SAVED!
hahah.
finally.
then guess what.
the guy kayaked away with her PADDLE!
ohgreat.
so she was stranded.
HAHA.
stucked with me.
and we were bloody laughing our heads off
and shouting to the guys to come back.
they were damn far off already by the time we finished talking
and wanted to kayak back
then she realised her paddle was missing.
right.
started laughing like anything again.
ohman.
what a show.
then she was like
okay."i kayak one side then you kayak the other"she kayaks with both hands..
then she goes."nah you kayak your side.."
we were both using both hands to kayak.
expecting both our kayaks to stick together.
then we started drifting..
"AIYO!"
AHAHAHAAHAAHA.
more laughter.
OMG. we were two madddd souls.
SO RETARDED!!
so she paddled on oneside only.
while i was singing "DAYONG SAMPAN"
OMG. and we burst out laughing even more.
while we kayak towards the rest of the group.
WHALAU.
and she whacked the paddle at my face by accident.
there goes my left cheek.
all scratched with fibreglass cuts.
OMG.
hahha. i couldnt help but stil laugh.
and we just laughed it off.
although yea. i'm with a bruise on the left cheekbone.
but whatever.
doesnt matter.
we had TONS of fun.
AHAHAAA.
kept thinking about it.
if only i had a snapshot of the day.
AHwell its all in my memory.
GREAT DAY under the sun and
un-countable amounts of laughter and fun.
totally enjoyed myself.
before heading back
near the shore
we tried something else.
haha. its called half support.
using the paddle to support the kayak.
filled the boats with water.
almost 3/4.
then paddle around.
super bad.
rather unstable.
then used the paddle to do halfsupport.
when the boat was about to capsize.
half tilted.
first few time was alright.
then the last time again i was in front of the instructor.
was trying to do the halfsupport
but did it on the wrong side of the boat so i capsized.
and he was shouting to do it on the right.
but i did it on the left.
so capsize again.
but was near the shore.
swam back.
headed back to shore.
me and joce were damn tired by the time we hit the shores.
stil had to carry the kayak back.
poor guys.
had to pull the trolley full of kayaks back to the shed.
we helped but not much.
drained of energy
laughing and kayaking.
racing after the waves were TOUGH but SUPERFUN.
i managed to chase a few without capsizing.
i SURFED. accomplishment of the day.
hahah.
back at the shed.
had to wash the boats still.
joce and i were EXHAUSTED.
but at least we were girls.
and all we had to do was spray the boats with the hose.
the guys will load and put the kayaks back on the shelves.
HAHA.
the good part of being girls
get to slack on the hard jobs.
AHAA.
aww. the guys were jealous.
but anyway.
yea.
we did it quick.
so off we all went to shower.
before getting our certs.
that's if we passed.
AHAA.
i took a bloody long time to shower.
was the last to arrive at the waiting area.
and D was shouting "kok jing lai"WTH.
cus the first cert in the instructor's hands was mine.
and he saw my name. "kok jingli"
right.
he was an ass. being so lame.
haha.
right.
but anyway.
yea.
and so i passed.
so did the others in my group.
YAY.
that stated the end of the course.
end of the day too.
it was evening already.
