OSIM Corporate Triathlon
This was a fun event for me but sometimes, I guess I took things too personal to myself, which turn the good side to be ugly. Anyway, I am quite chilled with the on-goings that day so I just give a short post about the event.
Andy stayed over my house after my concert and with just only 3 hours of sleep, we need to wake up and start packing. We had to meet the rest at East Coast Park Carpark E2 at 5.30am. It turned out to be too early as it just take us 30 minutes to East Coast, instead of the timing we assumed. Gosh!! I know Charmain and Daryl were late but I didnt voice it out. Since the actual time to report is 6am, it will not affect much on the event so I just kept quiet.
Our task starts with everyone helping out to do the Volunteers registration and it was messy at first. With so many people crowding around you, it seems that you need a short space for a breather. By 8 plus, everyone got their tags and Andy and I got started with our breakfast. Haha...
We ended walking around the area to check out if the rest are fine with their jobs. It seems that they do like it but were tired. I understand its a tiring thing to wake up at 4 and to do this event for 9 hours. However, my main aim was to get everyone to be involved and learn about events management, as well as having tons of fun if possible. Soon, Andy, Farhan and I were asked to help out at a drinks station as insufficient volunteers were faced.
It was fun being a waterboy but at least I got the taste of why waterboys are really called waterboys. You get wet and when there is no runners around you, you start playing the water hose by spraying it at your friend. Gosh!!! I was totally wet thanks to that guy who spray the water on me. Anyway, I am having a slight flu now but it doesnt matter anymore. I can get sick for now since concert has been over.
Once the event ends, everyone went back. We took a picture as it is important for my report but I ended up taking the bus alone while the rest took the cab home. Why? Easy... I was feeling emo and I want to be alone. Even though I acted tough and saying I am not tired, I am actually not. I took a long bus journey home and was thinking about the event. I felt good, as well as bad. Bad is because I didnt help to clear the drinks station, helping the rest to pack the stuff before leaving. That isnt my way of living but it showed how selfish I am. Gosh! (slapping my head in disguise) What is wrong with me??!!
Alright... thats all I gonna talk about the event. I have enough of these stuff and if by Wednesday, the Vertical Marathon crew dont send an email to me about being a volunteer then thats it. Haix... Poor me.. When will I stand up and shoot at the rest that I am a person with limits?? How...
