Awesome art done by my very talented team mate, Chee Ching.
Team Shark - Vernon, Chee Ching, Tian Chad and yours truly :)
This is a longgggggggggggg blog post.
Got up at 6+ in the morning and drove down to The Curve.
What was up? Maxis 4G Bloggers Blaze!!!
This is how blur I looked at 8.30am.
Nana is so competitive, she said it to my face"I'm going to win today!"
I was like"ahhh, just win, I don't really care about winning."
I was so dead because all I wanted was to sleep.
Then, MC Ben announced that the grand prizes are 4x Samsung Galaxy Note3 and 4x iPad Mini.
Oh my, something just hit me at the back of my head.
WHAT????????????? Note3 and iPad Mini???
I told Nana "I'M GOING TO WIN THIS", super energized, hahahahaha.
So materialistic, lol but WHO DOESN'T WANT NOTE3 OR IPAD MINI?
I need a new phone, I honestly do and I'm a blogger, iPad can totally help a lot.
After slightly warming up with seeing almost all my girlfriends in blogosphere showing up.
Ok, I still looked a little groggy, haha!
But, honestly, I was very happy seeing my lovely girls and we got to chat a little.
Thanks to Maxis for bringing us together, it was like a mini gathering.
We were devided into groups of four.
I went to look for my team mates right after registering.
Meet 2 of my team mates, Tian Chad and Chee Ching because VERNON WAS LATE.
Finally, big boss mr.Vernon Chan made it!!!
WE ARE THE TEAM SHARK, RAWRRRRRR!!!
Ok, that's not a shark, that's a lion but anyway, we are as fierce as a lion.
So, RAWRRRRRRRRRR!!!
Our first team photo :)
I was highly motivated, hahaha.
I'm more a quiet person in real life, I usually don't talk first, I take time to warm up.
Seriously, I was just not me that day, I was so...WILD AND LOUD.
OMG, it was embarrassing that now I think back but I really had fun.
We were given a phone with Maxis 4G LTE service to complete 5 challenges.
First, we had to download the app QR code on our phone.
Game : There is a barcode on every balloon here.
We hav to take turns to scan the barcode.
Some reveal the location of the next challenge, some are there to waste your time.
Every team member only gets 20seconds to scan.
I WAS THE FIRST ONE WHO COMPLETED THIS TASK!!
First!! First!! First!! First!! First!!
I couldn't believe my eyes, I dragged the balloon, ran and screamed, "violently"
"YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
It wasn't just a yeahhhhhh but YEAHHHHHH!!!
Like how"THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!!!!!!!!" is said, lol.
I just ran without looking back and I dragged few balloons out together.
Hahahahaha, sorry, too happy, too excited.
Everyone was so stunned, especially my girlfriends.
They were like "what is wrong with Daphne?"
Everyone wish they had a video of me running and screaming, lol.
This is the only picture I had when I ran to get our passport stamped.
.PNG)
I picked our car.
Then, we were the first to take off to the next venue, Sunway Lagoon!
Nobody knew how to get to Sunway Lagoon from the Curve with the fastest way.
So, we used GPS on the device provided with Maxis 4G service.
The internet connection is so fast, it really helped us a lot.
At the mini challenge at Sunway Lagoon, we had to download a car racing app on our device.
Come on, again, with the Maxis 4G service provided, it was downloaded in like... 3.18seconds?
It was no problem, no hassle at all.
The only thing was we weren't told that we could change our cars in the game.
We used the slowest car and our average speed was 15secs, which was pretty bad :(
Got our passport stamped again and headed to the next challenge!
GO KART-ING!!!
Our team did so well, especially Vernon, HE IS A RACER.
I was just at the passenger seat and the seat vibrated like a massage chair, haha.
Moving on to the next challenge.
It was the toughest of all, ROCK CLIMBING.
Game : 2 of us have to climb up to get a flag down at the meeting point in the centre.
Then, 2 of us have to bring the flag up and put it back to the meeting point.
Look at my tiny twig hands and arms.
Oh, my hands, my arms are still hurting now, typing this post, haha.
I was just thinking "I can do this, I can do this, do it for the phone" hahahaha.
It was harder than I imagined.
I almost cried when I just started climbing, it was so hard to hold on.
My arms felt so weak and my hands and legs were shaking.
They said "use the strength of your legs, use the strength of your legs!"
The thought in my head "HOW TO USE MY LEGS? MY ARMS ARE HURTING!"
Vernon and I went first, he was fast.
Everyone was looking at him and cheering for him, I was at the other end trying so hard, haha.
I screamed "PLEASE HELP ME!" hahahahahaha.
Then, everyone turned their attention to me and guided me.
I made it, I MADE IT, without falling.
We were told that we were the fastest team to complete the task.
We were the only team that did it without falling.
We also did it in one shot without getting to practice.
OMG, I was so proud of myself for such a small thing.
Hahaha, so so proud because only Povy and I didn't fall, other girlfriends fell.
Nana's group got 20minutes penalty because they couldn't do it.
Chanwon had to climb 3 times, hahaha, poor little girl.
Last round, watermelon eating, haha.
Game : 3 of us have to finish the watermelon with hands at their back.
1 of us will be the leader (that was me) to push the watermelon towards them,
We were TOLD that leaders can't HOLD the watermelon, can only push.
I shouldn't have followed the rule of not holding the watermelon cause others didn't.
Else I would have just held the watermelons and shove them into my team members' face, haha!
Anyway, my team did very well, we were the second team to finish, I think.
I was disappointed that my team didn't win because we all think we did well, haha.
Anyway, congratulations to the winning teams.
Team Leopard with 2nd prize!
I LOVE TEAM LEOPARD! They are lovely and friendly people :D
Team Stallion with 1st prize.
Waaa, waaa, waaa, 4x Note3, so gooooooood!

Enjoyed myself so much!!!
So happy to know new friends, especially my team mates Tianchad, Chee Ching and Vernon!
