This song I love since I was small!

Here are my answers

I broke both of my ligaments when I was 19, and the operation for those torn ligaments has been postponed till now. Since then, my outdoor activities has been limited so I started doing something lighter like swimming, bowling and volleyball. But my movements were limited as i cant have sudden movement to my knees, or i might be bed-ridden for days. Much to my surprise, I started playing Paintball last year with my colleagues for an internal tournament which our team won. I know paintball is an extreme sports and require more movements, but the thrill and the adrenaline rush i got from playing superceded my worries and phobic of falling to the ground with a dislocated knee. When I started playing, there wasnt any good all women team around so I played with ARMADA till one day a friend suggested me to try out for a new all ladies team which was just newly formed. That was Ballbuster! So I went, and still playing religiously and faithfully with them. I do play for Armada sometimes, when ballbuster is not playing in the same tourney.



Paintball is a great stress buster I must say. Sometimes I accumulate all my anger and let it all out during the games. Isn't it better than releasing your anger at your innocent loved one and friends, or doing anything destructive for that matter.

There are some people who find themselves unable to "jive" with the paintballers crowd. Well, all I can say is maybe they need to get to know these people a bit more, because despite their fierce and sometimes snobbish looking face, they are actually very friendly and helpful. You just need to adapt and blend well. Dont expect everyone to follow your flow, aight!!??



Paintball has given me a lot of other opportunities, new profound joy, and more and more new friends. The friendship and sisterhood I got is priceless. If only everybody would just stop being superficial, judgemental and critical, and start accepting paintball as a good sports.

And yes, a good sports to shoot pictures too, I must say!

So what are you waiting for, go try paintball! I am sure you will like it!

Paintball suck the life out of me..and im loving it!!!

Why, you asked?

Why do you think play paintball???
Why do you think im so passionate about what i do? Be it paintball or photography?

But the song has been my favourite since last year!

The Day we spent with nature

See my Tabblo>

After we left the camp, Mas, Eddy and yours truly went for an awesome sight seeing into nature!

Superstar

I'd be lying if I say I have had better than this.
I'd be lying if I say I wasn't at all surprised.
Truth is, I've never felt this big before.
Maybe when I was a lot younger and slimmer, I did get those kind of appreciation and recognition.
Last nite, I was at Benum Hill Eco Resort, where I was a guest speaker for the Selangor Youth Outbound Camp. I was accompanied by two dear friends, who were also paintballers. Our arrival was greeted by Salihah and we were then brought to our chalet and later to dinner. Half an hour later, she said it was time for the "talk". Upon our arrival to the hall, all eyes were on us. We were completely clad with our gears and jerseys, even with face mask. When I was invited and introduced to the crowd, the participants and the instrustors cheered and gave us a BIG clap. We were shocked to see the responds. When I started my speech, the participants showed so much of interest and listened to all my "crap" in awe. I didnt actually prepare anything and was talking straight from my tired and worn out brain. But amazingly, the crowd was giving so much of interest and they didnt even wait a second to ask me a lot of questions. Fortunately, iImanaged to answer all the questions.
I must say iIwas like one kindergarten teacher, eventhough there were kids aged 15 to 18 too. They kept asking how to play the game so I asked Eddy to do a demo. We brought our markers and tried to do some shootings to the wall where papers and a bin were pasted. Eddy shoot and shoot till the bin actually smashed and that left the audiences astonished. I was so glad everyhting went well and the audiences like our demo and talk. After that we stayed for their "Talentime" which was hillariously funny and creative. The most funny performance was probably when one of the instructors performed Hindustani dance moves. That really made me laughed my head off!

After the talentime, the kids came to us for autograph and some more questions. I seriously felt like a real Paintball STar..hahaha...We were even treated like a VIP by the instructor, which really touched me. We had a very long chat with mose of the instructors who were very friendly and funny. We stayed over for the nite in one of teh chalet. All of them were staying in dorms but they gave us a lovely chalet. Such a great hospitality. I slept like a baby all through the nite!

The next morning, we wake up early to join them for breakfast, and when we said goodbye, everybody was really thanking us and the kids cheered for us again...isnt that lovely. I LOVE KIDS...and teens too.

We continued our plan for the day. We went to Lata Jarum to enjoy the beautiful waterfall and to Eddy's farm. We stopped over by the road on our way back to eat durians and rambutans. Had lunch in pekan Bentong , managed to get our hands on "gulai ikan patin". It was a perfect outing altogether.

I guess you don't really have to travel overseas to unwind, cuti-cuti Malaysia will do.
Pictures here...

Note to self: Never to watch SUpernatural alone again...Bloody MAry...Bloody scary!

Public relations

Im off to Raub, Pahang tomorrow. I have to be a guest speaker for an Outbound camp for teens/kids. I'm not really fond of public speaking but, its for my team benefit and for the love of the game, tomorrow im gonna face one of my fears.."Public Speaking". Well, they dont call me PR manager for the team for nothing, aight?

Please kids,dont ask me questions to which I dont have the answers..

On the other side of my life, I received two christmas gifts today...Sweet!!!
I cant wait for Christmas, 3 days of holiday.I need it badly. My body and brain is "overused". Need some rest...But next week we will have training as usual...Thats awesome! A week without playing paintball is like a day without bath! haha!

Have a good weekend!

In the STAR (again)

Afterglow

We got the 2nd place. The finals were such a thrill. If only my marker was not intermittently giving me problems during the game..maybe we could have been the champion..but as they always said.."memang dah takde rezeki"..guess we were never meant to win that Championship. But this will not definitely stop us from training harder and trying again next time.. It has in fact boost up our spirits to fight again next year!!!

But...i got my prize that nite...hehe:)
