day 35.

Counting down to 7 days left to be back to Singapore. Today whole day was basically so called OBS in Singapore. All outdoor activities.

So this morning, was to meet up at 8am. For that period in the morning, what we did was some sort of team building game or rather a little of ice breaking game. Those game were squirrel and trees, guy and girl represent different team and after that we must group ourselves.

All this game doesn't suit us luh. This game suit more for secondary 1 when they come in for orientation camp. i don't understand a need for this game, unless they are waiting for another group to come. But they could have another better idea.

After the next group came, we were group into 4 groups. We were given 40 mins and newspaper. So we were suppose to make use of the newspaper to make ourselves into this Tank tire. This team building game is quite challenging. With no other materials, just pure newspaper, we must connect them to make a Wheel of a Tank. With this done, while the whole group members enter into the "Wheel". We were supposed to travel from one place to another. So, we have to co-ordinate making sure the newspaper does not tear too.

For the afternoon session, was such more fun. First was the thrust fall. In order to have more challenge and trust from the team, the instructor tie both hands and legs together. The actual meaning was not to let you open your arm and leg to prevent you from hitting others.

Secondly was the broken bridge, for that isn't much of a challenge as we are able to hold the safety line which is attact to us while we jump over. For me, adding more challenge to it, i didn't hold it.

Lastly it was the rock climbing. Wasn't able to reach the top but nearly, 3 more square. my hand isn't long enough! the peddles were getting farther apart.

In china, 26 years old can already become a University Lecturer. Their pay was around 3000+ RMB. To us, Singaporean, it's kind of little. But to them, it's quite a lot. Their standard of living is lower here, compare to us. The safety equipments here is almost the same as Singapore.
The certificate of those rope courses took up 3 to 4 years then you are qualitfied. And this cause about, 5000 - 6000 RMB. Over that 3 - 4 years, the course is considered cheap.
