Today, My bro and I went for a treasure hunt game in Shah Alam. We went with my primary friend Kimberly and her brother Gerard. Because it was an activity held by their church so we tagged along. The place we went was also called Skytrex i think. Skytrex is where you can go and do those outdoor adventure stuff like flying fox etc. It was damn fun. Most fun thing I've ever done in this holiday. The leaders went to have a meeting about how to start the game and the younger youths (us) were doing warm ups for the "amazing race". So in this game, it works exactly like the amazing race you watch in TV, we had to find our stop and do a task before getting the next clue to our next destination. So all of us we're like practically running around the forest. We were divided into 6 groups before we entered. At the beginning I was lost because I didn't know any of them. My leader was an indian guy named Daniel Joshua. Coincidentally there was another guy with the name Joshua Daniel but he was from another group. Then our groups members were Johannes ( I can't seem to remember his name at first lol), me and Joshuah (i think that's how it's spelled) Daniel was 13 years old, Johannes was 16 and Joshuah was 12. lol. The leader said that we could do our mission throughout with either walking, bus (but we have limited time because he bus stops at 12 because it was a fri), or cycling. At first we wanted to cycle, but Joshuah didn't know how to cycle. So that was off out list. The only choice left was to walk. Okay, so we did walk. When the leader shouted "start!" All of us rushed to the map and wrote down whatever that is there. We were given a map but it wasn't clear. the words were so blurry and they didn't write every places in the forest. At first our group was lost, our first clue was Boats. we went to the first destination, there were like wooden boats on the grass. We didn't know what to do so we just followed the group in front of us, which i think didn't know where they are heading either. Then halfway we followed another group down to the skytrex tower (which wasn't actually included as the place we had to go in the game. lol) We got a bit lost there then we decided to go back to the Boats, because that is where our first clue was. Johannes went back first then he called us and said that he found the clue. We were runnning towards him when we saw him, the next clue we got was ' I am red during chinese new year, on fire during deepavali and on trees during christmas trees' we couldn't get it at first but then we related it to the map because the place is the answer to the riddles. then we found taman Hiasan. So that was where we we're heading for our second destination. We walked and ran and walked again because Joshuah couldn't catch up. lol. That little boy.
At the second destination, we had to do the fear factor. One of the elder youth was waiting for us at the station, he gave us a plate with raw si ham, salted fish, quill's egg, bitter gourd, RAW GARLIC with still the leaves on it and some kind of drink called "drink of life" (aft tht we found out that the drink was milk mixed with water, a bit of rabbit blood and cow blood.) WTh... I ate the salted fish and the leaves with Joshuah while the other 2 guys ate everything else. lol. Johannes ate the egg in a really gross way, I almost puked the chewed leaves in my mouth. THE more i chew it the thicker my saliva became omg. aft we finished everything on the plate, we were given the third clue, i think it was ' what kind of room can you eat'. hahha. This one was easy, so we checked the map and ran to the taman cendawan. That place was horrible, we had to eat 2 biji of watermelon, what more is we had to break it ourselves by throwing it at the floor. Omg, I ate until i almost puked. I was eating and feeding Joshuah at the same time while the the other guys were eating like barbarians. lol. halfway eating suddenly it started raining. OMG. the rain drops were dropping into our watermelons and we were still eating it. O_O After we finished the watermelons the rain got really heavy so we had to find shelter. Actually we wanted to continue because we didn't mind getting wet but the leader at the station told us not to continue and wait til the rain stops. So we did. i think the rained for about 20 - 30 mins? then we continued to out next destination, I forgot what place was that but we had to throws cards to a half-cut watermelon and make sure it pokes into the watermelon to get our the next clue. It may sound easy but i gotta tell you it wasn't. We kind of cheated there. lol. And then the our next clue was "everything looks smaller from here" So we went to the menara pandang jauh. Fuyoh, i tell you the menara stairs were so freaking steep. It was almost 90 degrees up. When you're going up the stair you could only see stairs right in front of ur face. When we finally reacher up the menara. There were 2 older youths. One was chinese and the other was African. We had to pronounce the African words and try it by ourselves after that. We got one wrong at the 1st attempt so we had to go down and back up. Which was quite dangerous because it was raining. lol. Everything was wet. after that our next clue lead us to the playground. We went there and we had to stick back pieces of newspaper the older ones teared. We used our U-turn there. Because we thought that it would use a lot of our time. So we did sits up, push ups and crunches. each 20. Then we went to the next station. The task in that station wasn't easy. the leader of the group had to stand a side and the other member had to be blind folded. Each of them have a specific colour of ball they should pick. If you touch a ball that isn't your colour you must restart. So we used our last U-turn there too. sits ups push ups and crunches agn. lol. I felt grateful that i practiced those at home. hahha. Then our next clue lead us back to base. We thought we were the first but ended up the second. lol.
Although our leader was desperate to win first but It's okay. we had fun and that's what matter. lol. We waited for the other groups to arrive and then head back home. lol. I didn't have a chance to take any pic because we were either running or finding for places. should've took one at least. but oh well. I had fun today...tEHHE. :D
