it actually need 4hours. faint! lols.

on our journey to pasikudah beach,
we saw buffaloes,

and this is how their street shop looks like.

the viva is very common at srilanka.

when walk along that one whole street,

can see alot of the viva sign.

reached the beach at around 12plus

initially wanted to play ice-breaking games with the kids.

but the moment they reach the beach they

all dashed to the water and played.

and the games that we planned was not being carried out.

but as we know, there would always be changes

when we are there.

things wouldnt always goes as planned.

ruiying and me is trying to hide ourselves from the

hot burning sun.

and the wind is so windy that when we sit there,

the sand was blow onto us. lols.

all the trippers went down to the water

except for owen (being the medic), hath, maggie, ruiying and me.

now to Day5 of the OSLT.
things are still going quite well=D
today we have to finish the first field before lunch time.
we clear away the rubbish, move away the rock
and clear the weeds.
as usual, we played and sing happily while working=D

geraldine, siman and my dear clare=D

the rubbish and weeds that we have plucked and picked

did you see the soil? hhehe.

refill-ed our water bottles.

we really drink a lot of water there!

my dear clare, siman and maggie=D

ben look so cute lar. hahah.

did you see the hairband on his hair? =x

after lunch,

we went to the second field to clear the weeds.

when we reached there,

we were so shocked! there were more weeds then the first one.

am having difficulities in clearing the weeds.

it's like no matter how many we have pulled out,

it still seems like uncleared field.

but we motivated ourselves to keep clearing

and not to give up.

and YES! we make it=D

we clear 1/4 of the field before sunset.

nothing is impossible so long we got the heart to do it!=D

we took the last photo with this small little playground

as it will be moving away from this field.

the guys helping to move away the playground

to anyother side of the place.

it's really heavy and they have to

pass the playground from the inside to the outside

of the field.

as you can see, there's fence blocking.

really xin ku them le.=D

after that, went to see the buffaloes.

there were hundreds of them.

there's baby buffaloes too. super cute lar=D

at first thought that the buffaloes will be attracted

to red colours but pastor said it would not.

and a sense of relieve. hahahx.

since im wearing red. lols.

the buffaloes will always gather at the same place

when night falls.

and leave when the sun come out.

then is dinner time and start to do some preparation for

tmr activities.

lights off at 11pm.

moving on to Day4 of OSLT.
it's will be a long working hour for the day.
after breakfast we had devotion.

the place next to the van is our dining area

the girls bunk

and the guys bunk.

we went to the field and start working after devotion.

the sun was burning hot and am having difficulties in

plucking out the weeds.

however, we are still having fun whie plucking the weeds.

entertaining ourselves by singing and joking around=D

and time passes so fast that it was time for lunch at 12++.

this is the place where we put our bags

our muscular yaohan trying to take out the roots of the weeds.

kk really looks like a japanese solider. dont he? =X

started work at 2pm.

this time was even more fun=D

chatted with yaohan and keep singing with my dear clare,

maggie and wensze=D SOOOoooo FUN!!!=D

have a GREAT chat with geraldine too=D

what did we talk about? hahahx.

it's our interest GuZheng=D

and this is when i started to be bonded with geraldine=D

and also to the other girls=D

it's a good thing isnt it? =DD

after a few days bonding together

we get to know each other better and am learning

to accept and played with them=D

this group of ppl is really fun to be with=D

throwing away the weeds that i have pluck=D

isnt that a lot?=x

the kids keep helping us to clear the weeds.

she's not wearing a gloves and can just pluck out like that.

Omy!

some of the weeds have tongs(spell?) on them.

really afraid that they might hurt themselves.

luckily they didnt! PHEW!

and the girl on the picture is sindhu if i didnt rmb wrongly=D

around 5plus, more and more laughter!

this is when i found that yunting was really really cute=D

yunting keep making kenny sian diao

and making us laugh like nobody businesss. hahahx! XD

can you see the pile of weeds that we have plucked? =D

we tooks photos before leaving the field and

then somthing happened.

hath said that one of the "chan ko"(spell?)

was missing but nobody respond.

kenny was then quite angry about that.

went back to the campsite and the facilitators had meeting.

we waited at the dining area and thought that kenny

would lecture us later when he come in but he didnt.

In fact, we start playing games while waiting for dinner.

played "polar bear"

and the bugs was really irritating!!!!

there's lots of insect around and keep flying to us.

super irritating!

so when dinner was serve, we switch off the lights

and put two portable light at the side to

make the insect move away from our dining table.

it was successfulXD

after dinner, seated outside the bunk and gaze at the stars.

and then played the number game.

was really super tiring as have to run from the starting point

to the game area and start to step

on our respective number that is infront of us.

i took the number 3 and have to run super fast.

there's a time goal for us so i have to run faster to reach my spot

and step on no.3 fast after no.2.

kk was at the same spot as me and see-ing me

so tired he took over my no.3

and we also meet our target=D

thru this game, we learn about GRPR.

Goal, Roles, Process and Relationship.

and in GRPR, i found that relationship was the most impt!

taking the no.3 as example.

if without the help of kk, we might not have

be able to reach our time target

no matter how good the process and the

different role that different ppl played is.

after game is facilitation.

then went bathing with clare again. haix. OOPS XD

have some chat with the trippers outside girls bunk

before lights off at 12am.

didnt regret coming for OSLT.

am liking the ppl and place and everything=D

today is yaohan last day with us in thirukkovial.

having fun with yaohan around=D

he's a nice guy=DDD
