smeiloh.blogspot.com™: What's up, Green Heritage Game 2011

The game is not only a game.

There's stories behind every game. Much efforts had been done; to find members, to form a group, to build up stamina, to collect few kilos of Plastic and so on. It has been a challenging one before the game itself started. I'm glad to participate in 7th Youth Trophy Challenge- Green Heritage Game 2011, so here I am to present you the game, a day that we rocked Georgetown!

Early in the morning on Saturday, I should be sleeping like a pig on cozy bed instead of started to pack a lot of recycle materials like a "karung guni" before I headed to Georgetown.

A very minor part of our group's recycle items for investing purposes.( Part of the game to gain more points)

As the photo shown above, we actually brought more than those in the photos and walk all the way from Times Square to Esplanade. Lesson learnt: Give up newspaper which is super burdened!! Unless you have Mr.muscles teammates :p

First and foremost, before the game officially started, each group is required to work together with another group to melt the ice cube, which is like 45cm x15cm. Here's the link for the Ice melting video!!

After the big ice cube is finally melted, 5 of us have to finish up a loaf of white bread, which taste like ~~SHIT~~! Even Bangali Roti sell at roadside also taste better than that! I almost vomited out but forced myself to swallow it down to my throat by drinking huge amount of water!

Our group get this done in like 10-15 minutes? Soon after we got our very first clue, we rushed to GuangMing office to buy each of ourself a newspaper and completed our very first side task :) yet, this is only the beginning!!!

What to shame to say, being a penangite for 17 years already, we still have to study the Georgetown map for quite a time to find out where is our exact location and where are we heading to! Come on, I mean this is our hometown and has been recognised by UNESCO as world heritage site yet we as local resident do not know how does Georgetown actually looks like? How sarcastic and irony?

Lesson Learnt: I should start knowing my own hometown before I'm qualified to visit and find out other cities :)

First station: Shuttlecock kicking!

In case you don't know what is a shuttlecock, here's it.

Normally, we will only see this thing in those chinese drama series. (though I have one at home^^) However, it's kinda challenging to kick on this shuttlecock and PASSING IT to others! Seriously, not easy, don't play play ah!

Informed to attend special event in St.Xavier's volleyball court! ~~MY GOODNESS!!!~~ That freaking place is freaking far away from our current location! As expected, we're late upon arrival! Such a sad story!

This photo tell more than thousands words HOW TIRING WE WERE!

See, I'm so kind still fan Peace with a ...big leaf? Hahaha!

THOUGH we failed to complete to complete the first special event, but we managed to reach the second special event, and guess what? We reached an hour earlier! So we started studying the map and strategies all over again, and also settled our lunch there, ENERGY BARS!!! provided by Peace Tan!

Lesson Learnt: Time estimating is really important! Lunch is important as well hehe!

The rest of the game is about finding game stations and complete as much as we can. Attending special events and gain as many marks as possible! I find one challenging game is playing GASING! I don't even know how to tie up the rope... :( mempersiasuikan sahaja!!! The rest of the games are not bad but I shouldn't have tell on the blog so much! :p

My AWESOME group & teammates!!!From the left:Peace;Me;Chinghou;Boonleong;Weiyuan the leader!!!

The whole game finished at 5.30pm and we're required to reach Times Square at 6pm. After a day of long journey around Georgetown, all of us were extremely, HUNGRY! our hunger had overcome our exhaustion and fatigue!!!
