• Thursday, 17th July 2008

  We went for registration somewhere in the school compound, and we were asked to get a group photo by the President of 2008 Adventure Club, Fillah.. We called ourselves the 'Royal Flush'... Royal Flush was not our original name... first we decide to call ourselves as 'Vampiras In Daylight'... Soon to realise that the name doesn't suits us... and since our Serasa Friends called their group 'Number 13' the unlucky one, we decided to have a lucky name, and surely luck is needed in Gambling, so the Royal Flush came up being the highest point card sequence in Poker. Here's our pic...

The actual day...

PTEB ADVENTURE CLUB EXTREME CHALLENGE SEASON 2, HERE WE COME!!!!

We wore Blue Chealsea Jersies on that day... People could tell its Royal Flush from far, obviously, we are the only ones that run in flocks of Blue Chelsea Jersies.. F.Y.I we added our names, numbers, ranks, group name to the jersy by ourselves.. It took us a week to finish it, more or less 4 days...

So whether or not its a fine finish, we are still satisfied by what our hands has done to the Jersy. It also gives the Team members a sense of pride, to wore such thing together as a team.

At the start of the ceremony, we meet up with our guiders... They call themselves as Along The Spade And Mukmein The Joker... As you could see in the pics, our Blue Chelsea Jersies that we are wearing.

Waiting process... Some Technical problems occur, which means our start off will have to be delayed till 9.00a.m... which worries me since it will be hotter...

And We are off!!! That's team Number 13 by the way...

• Royal Flush First Task: VELOCITY

- Each team members have to carry a leaking pail of water around the circuit and memorise symbols as they go along the circuit. Total of 20 symbols to remember, timing is crucial. When the water in the pail runs out, we had to start again, and when one member finish the circuit, he/she wern't allowed to do it again... so memorizing is also crucial...

Go Ju!cY!!!

• Royal Flush second task: S 2 the F (survival to the fittest)

-Each team have to follow the instruction given by the task keeper... Simple as that..

Our instructions:

Push Up 10 times (nOrena)

Sit Up Ten Times (Ju!cY)

Star Jump 15 times (D'Ba)

Balance water in pastic cup with two fingers (PIE)

Crawl through the tyres (c~Sur)

Pose to the camera as ordered by task keeper (together)

• Royal Flush third task: Numero Uno

-Each Team were given a colour, team members have to search the 8 numbers written in that colour, punch in the symbols and numbers into a calculator, hit equal. Give the ans to the task keeper. Royal Flush Given Colour: Dark Brown.

No pics on this one, coz our guider a.k.a photograpgher, Mr. Along, was exhausted by all the running, climbing stairs and the scorching heat. They were dehydrated too..

• Royal Flush 4th Task: Gross Relay

-First member of the team run to the first bucket, find 4pcs of 20cents coins in a bucket full of mud water. Bring it back to the task keeper.

Second member then run to the second bucket, find a pair of scissor in a bucket filled with raw fish and bloody water, with all the flies flying around and give it to the third member.

The third member take the scissor and run to the third checkpoint, open a container with the scissor, and ate 3 raw egg yolks from the container.

Fourth member then suck water from a bucket full of mud and saliva using straw and pour it into a bottle until it reached a marked point.

Fifth member then bring the bottle of water inside a pail filled with heavy sand and run through the course.

1st Member: nOrena

2nd: D'Ba

3rd: PIE

4th: Ju!cY

5th: c~Sur

Our comment: 2nd task was dangerous, coz they put knives inside the bucket too.. 3rd task was quite easy for PIE, she ate those for breakfast, it was almost half-cooked by the heat of the sun anyways, and was mixed with soy sauce... quite delicious. 4th task, Ju!cY had to suck the saliva and mud water to her mouth, coz the straw took long tym, when she got back to us, she spits around, luckily, we got water bottle in the back pack... she get rid of the taste by gurgling the water.

~Smelly Raw Fishes~

Run Sur, Run!!

• Royal Flush Fifth Task: Cubic B

-One team member will be blindfolded, two members will guide her in searching and digging up for bottles containing balloons by giving verbal instruction. The other two will blow 5 balloons and burst it up in any way they want.

That's Us trying to cross the so-called 'moat' to get to the Cubic B task site. Ju!cY's Handphone got damaged during this crossing...

PIE, the blindfolded victim

• Royal Flush 6th Task: Are U A Smarter Bruneian?

Status: Incomplete

Yup, we didn't complete the task, coz we were told that if we weren't there at the starting point by 1 o'clock, we'll get disqualified... But then, the other team were given extra tym since only about four or five teams arrives on tym... And becoz of that, we didn't make it through to the next round, which is a fortunate thing for me, coz, the next round involves eating fried Sago worm... Jeng Jeng Jeng

While waiting for the other team to finish their 2nd round task we found Along the spade!! so we took pics with him.. we tried to search for our other guider, Mukmein the Joker, but couldn't find him anywhere, so we assume he's daiting or having important work to do.

Our Jersy... A Work Of Art!!

Then we found Mukmein, and he was so jealous of us taking pics with Along that he asked Along not to be in the pics.. hahaha.. but still, its quite rude to left Along out, and we know mukmein was just kidding around, so we took pics in the chalet with BOTH our guiders..

At last, Royal Flush won the Fourth Place... Which also means we are the highest All-Girls team... but we didn't get prizes for that...

c~Sur, nOrEna and Ju!cY during the prize presentation ceremony.

Last Agenda of the day, Serasa Crew (Royal Flush & Number 13) decide to play Truth Or Dare until 5 o'clock, that's when our parent starts to pick us up. One of the seniors were all excited of our game, so we decided to bring her along and play the game... since she like the 'Dare' part very much, we or is it rena, dare her to say 3 words to Zimo, either I Love U, or I Hate You, with extra dare... she must bring Zimo by the hand to the center of the camping compound, shout it out loud until we, the Serasa Crew satisfied with it...

That is if she was up to it.. Amazingly she was... hahaha. so here's a pic of our brave senior doing her dare... "I LOVE YOU' she said. Zimo replied "hahaha, ur confession of love is not sincere" or in Malay " Nda Ikhlas ko ah"

She told Zimo we want to take pics... Zimo fall for the lie... Ahahaha, quite awkward though, but after the dare, we did take pics, so its not a lie if u put it on the other way.

So, Let me summarise averything:

We didn't complete all 6 task,

We get dehydrated easily, so water bottles are essential,

Umbrellas and hats are essential too,

I opened my tudung when it starts to flop down caused by all the running so next tym i'll tie it tightly,

Despite that i used hats to cover my hair, which doesn't work at all, but it did protect me from the heat,

Heat strokes are unavoidable so use umbrella any chance u get,

Having a photographer and a magician as guiders are awesome!!

Other than that, we manage to go through the Challenge without Fainting. Yes, we are Physically and Mentally Fit!!

~~ROYAL FLUSH~~

Till Next Year!!
