OSIM Excursion

Felt like blogging again, so here I am. :D Please relink me back, all old friends. Thanks. :)

Went to OSIM this morning for school excursion. Was told by form teacher that handphones and MP3 players are allowed to be brought yersterday, but I was still a bit scared. What if they got consficated? :S

No choice! :( I put my iPod Nano (being very slim) into my wallet! O_O My handphone does not fit though, so I have to put my left hand into my pocket the whole day, just to prevent people from seeing it. XD

OSIM was quite fun. Got to try a few massage chairs, fitness equipment and stuff. Wanted to run on the...



[Don't mind me, I don't know the name, and I'm afraid people may think dirty if I say "running machine. :P (Edit: I have just realized the name, lol. It's a treadmill. This edit was made on 31 October 2007. ;))], but I did not know how to use it properly at the beginning, so I just have to drag the belt with my feet to make it run. The whole class was damned excited about the iGallop...


(A picture for the noobs. Keep the change, you filthy animals.)

But I was more excited whether the machine would stop or collapse when Alvin (the fattest guy in my class) sits on it. o_O

I admit. I have to thank Alvin, thank his father, thank his mother, thank his auntie, thank his uncle, thank his grandfather, thank his grandmother, thank his cousin, thank his brother and thank his sister that the machine did not break when he sat on it!!

Played around with the various massage chairs and even forced Alvin out of the...


(Another picture for the noobs. Again, keep the change.)

...just to try it! :D Very shiok!

Shiok: Originally a Malay exclamation, but now a universal Singaporean expression denoting extreme pleasure or the highest quality.

This little thing can massage your whole body, from back to shoulders, from wrists to legs! O_O

Finally figured out how to use the running machine " (with a bit help from Yoshida and Faizal) when we have to go. Sigh... :(

Then we went to the eighth floor, where they show us the place where OSIM employees can relax. There is a swimming pool (YES! A FREAKING SWIMMING POOL ON THE EIGHTH FLOOR, WITHOUT A SHELTER AND WITHOUT THE BUILDING COLLASPING DUE TO THE HEAVY WEIGHT OF THE WATER! SHOUT "HOLY S***!" QUICK!! ^_^") there, as well as an air-conditioned room with gym equipment, two billiards tables, a table soccer (which has no cover at the top happily, so people can just snatch the ball when others are in the middle of a game and annoy them :D) and five massage chairs. Everyone stayed out of the gym equipment area and playing billiards, except for "Larry" and his gang. Meh, I was a newb (not a noob ^_^") in the game, so I was always owned to the point that I disrupted the game by using the cue to hit the balls like how you use a spear to whack people. :D

Then we have to go to the third floor. Thanks to Alvin overloading the lift, I have to take the second one. *rolls eyes* When I reached there, I saw Yoshida (who took the first lift) sitting in a meeting room all by himself and eating sandwiches. Vernon (the self-proclaimed pro ) and I quickly went to take some food and we ate with him. I locked the door (so we get the room all to ourselves :D), while Vernon quickly went to the whiteboard, where three markers and a duster lies, took up the marker and wrote "PRO MEETING" (which, in other words, means "a meeting of pros" :D). Alvin joined us later, and was still eating when we finished (though I bet you knew that, or at least, guessed that ^_^").

Having nothing to do, I went outside, wanting to get more food, but they were all finished, so I went back to see Yoshida shouted some vulgarities and the whiteboard having a bunch of circles:



Turns out Vernon, having nothing to do, draws a "dartboard" on the board and uses the marker as a dart, but hits Yoshida's uniform instead. What the heck... On the second turn, he missed the dartboard. XD

Having nothing to do, I grabbed a market and wrote on the whiteboard:

1. D0 N07 B39 F0R PHR33 S70F PL0X!
2. B0W D0WN 70 73H D4RK L0RD!
3. B3 4 900D B0Y 4ND 91RL!
4. CH4771N9 R3V34L5 J00R P3R50N4L17Y!
5. P4Y 4773N710N 70 73H D347H G0D!

And after number five, I drew something like this:



But with a smiley face! :D

Then I wrote on top "RUL35 0F 73H L337 PR0 M3371N9" when Larry came. Being unable to understand leet, Vernon and I had to translate it for him. XD I guess I should translate it for noobs who don't understand teh pwnage language of 1337.

Rules of the leet pro meeting
1. Do not beg for "free stuff please"! ("Phr33 st0f pl0x" is a common phrase used in games when noobs beg from pros.)
2. Bow down to the Dark Lord! (Dark Lord is Vernon's nickname, and since he always wants people to bow down to him, why not?)
3. Be a good boy and girl! [In a MMORPG named Survival Project, where Vernon and I played (I quitted, while he still continues to play), this message will pop up when someone is spamming the chatbox.]
4. Chatting reveals your personality! (A message in Survival Project reminding people not to swear.)
5. Pay attention to the Death God! (Death God is Yoshida's nickname. Don't ask me why we must pay attention to him though, it's Vernon's idea.)

When the teacher pop in to tell us that we have to go, Vernon and I quickly shouted "S***!" and rushed to erase what we wrote on the board. :P

And next follows a very boring lecture from two managers, talking about their company logo, status, departments, aims, franchises, retail outlets and whatnot, with me and Vernon writing messages in our handphones to avoid the scolding titled "Don't talk!". :P

And then we left for school on a bus. Vernon, Yoshida and I quickly snatched the back seats, and Vernon and I were listening to our MP3 while eating the potato chips we kope. :P

kope: To steal, usually something trifling. Similar in meaning to "stun".
"Wah, where you kope all this stuff from?"


Quite a long post for someone who has not blog for a long time, eh? :P Remember to relink me, for those whom I used to link! You know who you are! ;)

This blog post was edited on 31 October 2007 to fix broken images. -.-
