MINI-OLYMPICS

Due to Marcus' insistent demand, these photos have been uploaded. LOL. Well, guys it had been a fun - no, SMASHING SATURDAY for all of us. We met up, had cg and geared up for what would be the most SPORTY event ever of 2008 - even more sporty than the 2008 Olympics, i dare say. Yes, it's the most sporty... 'coz though i didn't even watch Michael Phelps grab his 8 medals, i actually participated right here in our very own Minilympics. And that makes me consider it the most sporty event ever.

I give the honor of having the 1st photo of the even to none other than..Marcus! Mainly because he was the 1 who asked for the photos. LOL! We were grouped into different teams doing different events.

So we went out to this muddy field where we were supposed to play captain's ball and soccer. It was fun..and well, muddy.

Here is Jon. I don't even know what he's doing here. ADD A CAPTION PLEASE. :)

Judee..apparently happy 'coz her shoes haven't gone 2 inches deep into the mud yet as some of us have experienced.

N391. It was hot. It was muddy. And we were all sweating like crazy but we all wanted to enjoy ourselves. A 1.5L bottle of water per person was not enough, really. See Alexis in the background? Haha.

Here's Maria, Kim and Alexis. Still clean 'coz they haven't played soccer or captain's ball yet. Or maybe it's 'coz we didn't take a full body shot.

"What?!" Here is Jon again. LOL. This is the first time i've seen Jon in shorts. I can't believe that he has even smaller thighs than me. LOL.

Want some mud?

Check out how muddy that field/place/whatever was. We got smoother skin on our legs and feet!

No sweat. LOL. We're happy coz we won! I'm happy coz i scored a goal in soccer. For once in my life. Haha.

Next up, we had the vertical marathon where we had to climb 21 storeys as a team. I was up against Marcus in running floors 6-11. I beat him coz i held onto the railing while climbing up. Was that fair? I don't know. LOL. He took larger steps than me anyway.

Here's Ivan Lee. As you can see he's not muddy. He's not sweating and he's not unglam. Unlike the rest of us. Haha.

Bronson's team!

Peter's team!

Alexis in action!

After the vertical Marathon, we had the sort-of weight lifting race. We had to carry a pail of water. Shoot a piece of newspaper into a container. How far the container you shoot in will determine the points. Then, you had to carry the pail again without spilling any water.

Aswin's team!

Shaun's team!

SEXY, DIRTY BACK!

Here we were in dog and bone which was the best part for me coz it was the easiest!

Basketball. Shoot. Block. Pass. Bounce. Actually, a lot of people played it like it was captain's ball-passing the ball way overhead instead of bouncing it. LOL.

Marcus here showing all his slick basketball moves.

Shaun's team in dog and bone trying to come up with a good plan.

Bronson: NO ONE MESSES WITH MY TEAM. Y'WANNA FIGHT?!!!!

Here's Bronson really showing that he won't give up against our team-to the point of showin his butt off for the camera, like HuiYan. But we won. Haha.

Alfred asking Aswin's team some stuff about the Olympics.

Jon looks ready to snatch the ball.

Marcus: "Hey c'mon u guys i really want to play!" LOL.

Here's Kim showing us how to run the proper way so you could win the race. LOL.

100 m race-female. LOL. Came in last. I thought the finish line was where the crowd was so i stopped and slowed. LOL. Chiu Wen was so unbelievable! She gave her all to run. She even left her slippers somewhere. LOL.

100 m race-male. Aswin ran so fast we didn't even see him pass us by. But what really amazed us all was WHO WON THE 200m race-female:

None other than our very own BEARBEAR!!!!!!!! Here she is claiming first place! You can see victory written on her face! Was she crying? LOL.

200m-female race.

500m-male race. LOL. Couldn't believe Jonathan actually went for it. We had the relay after this but i can't remember who won. LOL.

Here we are-finally. I never thought the hour would come when this day would finally be over. We're sweaty and dirty and muddy and tired (except SuTing and Alfred ) but we had fun!

Our bodies may be aching all over the next morning but we had fun! We may have to wake up at 6am and book seats the next morning but WE SERIOUSLY HAD FUN! LOL!

Of course, we must not forget what we all have been waiting for. WHO WON?! After 4 hours and 45 minutes of deciding who won..no, just kidding, they only took 4 hours and 44 minutes. NO really, after about 7.5 minutes, the winner was:

JY's team!!!!!!Haha. We didn't expect that. They'll be sharing a $100 voucher. I think. Yeah. ALL PRIZES SPONSORED BY: SuTing and Adidas. LOL.

"WE DID IT! WE DID IT!" HIP HIP HOORAY!" LOL. THIS IS THE BEST/FUNNIEST PIC EVER.

Finally, we headed home. LOL. You would think that after everything that we've been through, we'd go back home, take a bath and sleep until the next morning.

Of course not! We were still going to have dinner! SO yeah, that was that. Let's do this again sometime. Or maybe not. Maybe we could have a MINI-WATERBOMB GAME or something. Something less sporty perhaps? I'm not so sure now if i would still say "I don't like sports" whenever we have introductions in cg. Is dog and bone or throwing waterbombs considered a sport? LOL.
