Fun @ clubmed


It was a 2D1N teambuilding and project update @ clubmed... Subsequently it was free and easy to enjoy the facilities... Unfortunatly I didnt get to try the sport that I would like to ... "Sailing", however I did get to learn and try at the Flying trapeze. I am by nature have controlled fear of height and I am really not flexible, hence I was really not convinced that I could actually do it and I didnt want to participate the actual thing. I kept thinking "oh no, I dont have the strength to hold myself long enough to do the little stunt"... However, due to "peer pressure" from my colleagues, I had to bite my teeth and go on with it. I was shaking even as I climb up the ladder. I was visibly shaken ( I watched the video recorded by one of the manager! ) and took a long time to dare to take the leap. And before I could react much, I had taken the plunge and was still holding on to the bar. I wait for the instruction to perform the stunt, I didnt make it the first time, and I was glad that I still managed to hold on to have a second try. At the second try, I could feel my legs were able to lift high enough to my chest and I could hear "encouraging" cheers and claps from the crowd and my colleagues and the next thing I know, I had executed the basic "stunt"!! :) I knew its a basic and simple stunt for beginners, given my age and my inflexiblity, I was really happy that my colleagues had encouraged me to think positive, dont be bothered by the result and just have fun. http://www.clubmed.com.sg/bintan/leisure_circus.php
