29/09/09 - Early in the morning waking up preparing to go BINTAN. 41 ppl were going including 2 lecturers. We went to the pickup point @ NYP. Waited, as usual others were late again. Off we go to Tanah Merah ferry terminal. Upon reaching, I saw a ferry heading towards the jetty. I felt so excited as it was my 1ST time boarding it. Everyone gathered and went past the customs. Times up! Time to board the ferry. My friends and I were the first few to board the ferry. Walking down to the floating platform and I could feel the wave of the current as if i was floating on the water. Climbed up to the open roof of the ferry, awaiting for the ferry to go. ENGINE STARTED! I love the nvr ending WIND. Everyone's hair were so messy. Took some pictures. I stood up holding the rail and enjoying the wind. "IM SURE EVERYONE WERE VERY FULL AT DAT PARTICULAR TIME. EAT WIND!" if u understood tis. 110mins journey, quite long actually. As the ferry proceed, we were wondering where is BINTAN island and kept on guessing. Reached the Tanjung Pinang Ferry Terminal @ Indonesia. Unload ourselves and went past the customs as usual. Walked to the street as a grp and bus were waiting for us. Put all our bags inside a car and all of us board the bus. The bus was COOL but no aircon, seats were cramp. We dont feel the wind when the bus was moving. Retro bus, bus driver connect the wires to his phone and we could hear the songs. Amusing. 60mins trip to the LOOLA RESORT. Sweating, very hot and stuffy. Unpacked our things at the dormitory and pack our things need inside our small backpack. Gathered and prepared ourselves for hill-trekking, boom net and survivor island. Up on the bus to the forest. We split into 2 grps. Apparently, im wif my fellows course mates and classmates. We took a towel and water bottle from our backpack and go on ahead leaving our backpack on bus. Walked into the forest and out of it into an open space. Continued to walk along a long stretch of road. At one point we climbed into the mountain trail. At first i thought was nothing. Hill-trekking like in SG, walked 1 round and come back but tis was COMPLETELY different. As we climbed up the mountain, the trail get steeper and steeper. If we fall, we may DIE. There were 4 sections. Only 2nd and 4th section, ropes were tied to guide us up. 3rd section, we use those tree trunks as to help us climbed up. 1st section was not as steep as 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Obstacles and obstacles, we climb like nvr ending. 60mins past, we managed to reach the TOP of the mountain. My very 1st time in my life. Den i realised something. Climbing up was easy but climbing down was worst. Very steep and slippery. We may fall anytime if we nvr hold on to anything. I remembered once, i slipped and hold on to Shueze since there was a big tree trunk in front of us, we were safe. I startled him. It was fun though it was dangerous too. Back to the bus, safe and sound. Proceeding to next activity which is the boom net. The bus travelled past the blast mine and to the shore. We saw a ship coming towards us, almost the same size as the ferry. Speedboat was there already. We put on our life vest and board the speed boat to the ship. Placed our bags on one side and prepared for the next activity. I was afraid. The person in charge of tis briefed us abt how to play. There were 3 levels for us to jump. At each side of the ship, there were 2 poles extended out and fishing nets were tied to each pole. The ship was moving and the fishing net was inside the water. We were required to jump for either level into the net. My 1st try, i jump from the second level which was the height of 3/4 of a floor and injured my left elbow. Still alive. Very scared. "U JUMP, I JUMP." My friend encouraged me, and I try to jump again but failed. Reaching the survivor island already. I plucked up my courage and JUMP. The 3rd level which is more den a story high. Managed to jump down and a safe landing and drank some seawater. Fell into the net and the water pushed me to the side. Everyone jumped inside and took a grp photo. Swam to the survivor island. Was afraid of drowning though i know a bit of swimming, wif life vest. Speedboat brought us our backpack. We unbutton our life vest and put on the shore. WET and SMELLY. Went to the tent but too many ppl, so my friends and i decided to sleep outside on the open island. Before the sunset, we walked around in the seawater. The seawater was very shallow, below knee level. Even if we walked 1km from the shore, the water is still shallow. We found a lot of beautiful seashells. Crabs were seen alive and crawling. The seawater was VERY CLEAN AND CLEAR, we could see the seabed underneath. The sky getting dark. The food we had were the one dat transported by the speedboat only. The sky was clouded, we could not see the stars. After dinner, we placed our mats on the grounds and spread our sleeping bag on top. Swept away the sand on the sleeping bags but it seems useless. As long as the wind blows, the sand came back. Hate sand flies, very irritating. We spent like few hours trying to get some sleep but couldnt. The sand flies just keep coming. Sprayed insect repellent also useless. After 5mins those sand flies were back again.
Few hours later we saw the stars in the sky as the cloud beginning to clear. Star gazing, very nice. The time past very slowly. One night of hell in survivor island. How i wished i had brought along my track pants dat day. It was a dream of nightmare dat came true in my life. Tired, fell to sleep. Everything was an fulfilling experience. it was very different from SG. Everything was still acceptable to me. i nvr regret going to BINTAN.
