Wad a day! Woke up at about 6am and got ready to go for the SMRT challenge at Civic Plaza. Reach Orchard MRT to meet Yong Hong, Joshua and Evangeline. Well, I thought I was late, infact, the others were even later! haha! I met Yong Hong at the MRT and we went to the Macdonalds in Lucky Plaza to meet Evangeline and Joshua. When we reached there, I see Joshua eating like a Pig with lots of food there, infront of him! haha! Wad a glutton! We sat down and talked for abit. After Yong Hong came back from changing in to the SMRT Shirt, we proceeded to Civic Plaza where we saw 100's of teams already there. We then proceeded to registration where we each got a goodie bag! haha! We went to the toliette in Takashimaya to relieve ourselves and also to pin our number on our shirts. We went down and prepared for the race to start. The first to go out were the Family team and the first Open category at 10am. Then it was the second open category and the Student A to go out at 1015. Lastly, it was our turn, we were with the open category and our time of start is 1030. The horn is sounded and everyone rushed to take the clues. Evageline took the clues while we waited for her.
We got the clues and immediately searched for the answers to the clues. We slove some while other were not solve. We then proceeded to our first destination at Scape Park at Somerset. We ran there from Civic Plaza and was there before we knew it. hah! It was our first challenge. It was to kick a soccer ball to the end without touching the cones. Yong Hong did it and we were then headed to our second clue. We ran to take Somerset MRT to Raffles Place.
Once we alighted, we ran to the second destination. The second task is to run and do shuttle run within 30secs with four bean bags. We did it in 20.56 secs! haha! The fastest! Yeah, now onto the second game, this was to do up a poem. Joshua automatically did the poem and we were done before we all knew it was over! hha! Great! So far so good! And now, fro our thrid destination!
We arrived at Bugis and were headed to Sultan Mosque area! We ran and saw another team, we were running against them. Soon enough, they were following us instead! WTH! But alas! We still got to the destiantion first! Our first task there was to wear a sarong and play chap tay. Just tap three times each person and it's ok. And so we began our task. Yong Hong Completed it first and followed by me, joshua and finally evageline! The next task was to draw a pic of safety first on the SMRT's MRT, Bus and Taxi. And so Joshua drew again! Well, we were done this time! Yeah! NExt clue! Tenah Merah!
We took the MRT to Tanah Merah where we got off. WE immediately ran to the bus stop to wait for a bus which would ferry us to the NEWater plant where it's our nex stop! Yeah, we waited for quite a while before the bus came to take us. While we were in the bus, the camera uncle ask us some questions. Well, we answered smartly! haha! well SMRT! hah! When we reached the New water plant, everyone rushed to the front and line up. We lined up and our team leader Evangeline went to the front to collect the clue. Well, Guess it was my turn to help the team, I was suppose to put a blind fold and walk to the next destination. I put it on and followed the instructions of my team mates to guide me to the next destination. Well, we reached there quite fast. We then proceeded to solve some simple problems on a computer. Just match the correct water source to the correct usage! haha! WEll, it was fast, we completed it and proceeded to the next task. We "boarded" a taxi waiting for us. We then fastened our seat belts and told the driver where we want to go and our preferred route. We pass! yeah! Now it's back to waiting for the bus. The bus came and we took it back to Tanah Merah where we ran when we alighted. We then went to the platform and took the MRT to our next stop, EXPO!!! YEah!
