Red Dynasty Paintball

Where : Yishun, Singapore
Place : The Bottle Tree Park
When : 29-March-2010

What I'm into lately? Exploring something that I've never done before. So whats it this time? PAINtBALL!

Lotsa homework need to be done since this is the first time I'm organising a paintball game AND...I've never play this game before.

Why do I wanna play this game? Cos I've been doing the same activities again and again, and feels that i need to explore new game.

First thing that I need to do...look for players! I need minimum six players. And so I thot I might have difficulties doing that...but Alhamdulillah (Thank God) without me knowing a number of friends that are interested came up to more than six. Yahoooo....! Now...where to play? When to play? How much? All that is quite easy since we have internet these days.

And so...date set - 29 March. It's my team off day. Time...not so early cos prob some are not a morning person. Which field to play? Ask around from friends that have played paintball before. Thanks to Walla2Bang2 and Azhar...I chose Red Dynasty Paintball Park.

There's few packages to choose from. This is what I have chosen :

Package RAMBO.
Cost $49.90 per person.
Each player assigned with 250 paintballs.

Game duration : Approx 2hrs including safety briefing.

And so there were eight of us from an initial of nine person in total. Five girls and three guys. Two teams need to be form. So, we form a team of 4girls Vs a team of 3guys+1girl.

Three sets of game were played. As a warm-up and getting to adapt to the field and feel what paintball is about...we started with 50 paintballs, and subsequently followed by 100 paintballs each in the next two set of games.

At the end of the game, what do we have? Bruises, bumps on the head, sweat and most importantly FUn and lotsa FUNssss....Its a game that made us all laugh so much, get bonded, togetherness and team working and made us think - strategy planning. Who won? Its the 4-girls team!!!!!!! Girls...WE WON!!!! Hip Hip HOooooRayyyyyy....

To all the seven that made this game so much fun...THANK YOU SO MUCH! Girls and guys...See u again in the 2nd session. Soon to come with a new member joining us! ladykecik...next session will be made possible, JUST for U! Muaksss.....!

Luge with PPGs

Photobucket

Where : Singapore
Place : Luge, Beach Station - Sentosa Island
When : 5 March 2010

A trio of PPGs has always wanted to do an outdoor activity together after getting separated from a common work area. We always meet up for makans (in proper english means meals), movie watching and window shopping. But we have not done any outdoor activity together before.

Where we plan to go? Luge. Why? Cos we heard that its fun. Why delay for so long? Cos no one initiated. Why now? Cos one of the PPGs is posting out soon and probably will not be in Alpha anymore, and that means difficult to meet up for a whole day outing.

This is where it all happen. Ohhh...we can't decide which deal to take up :

Photobucket

Luge and Skyride combo deal:
One trip each - $11/prsn
Two trips each - $16/prsn
Three trips each - $20/prsn
Five trips each - $29/prsn

First trip up by taking the skyride is so scary especially when i'm not so favourite with heights. But after that first trip...i just love and enjoy the view from the top. Its breathtaking....(Sorry, i was so busy laughing and cam whoring that i forgot to take a snap of the scenery from the top. heheee.......)

Photobucket

Taking the luge is so so much fun! How much fun? U can race your friend down the track. Manoeuvering is a piece of cake. But the track is so short. Regret not taking the five trips deals.

For first timer, worry not cos the friendly staff will be providing a simple brief before the ride.

Nature lover.

Hate late-comers. I dunt hv high patience level u know.

One thing that i always hold onto; wenever sometg bad happen to me, i'll nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos in times of goodness and happiness i nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos everything that happened, happens for a reason.
