Day 23 - Outward Bound
Outward Bound activities today! Therefore there will be no lesson for today. Meet up at the park near our hostel at 8am. The instructor divided us into our school; mde 1 group, lsct 1 group and ict 2 groups as they had more students. We did some activities similar to camps, like planning for ideas as a group and giving support to each other. Our mde group called ourselves as dragon team as we get ideas from Xanier. After a small performance, we proceed for rock climbing. I remembered my last rock climbing session was in secondary school, which made me have no faith in climbing it right now. I only managed to reach the middle height of the wall today. The session ends at 12 noon and we went to have lunch before returning back again later for afternoon session.
Sharing any ideas we have...
I owned the marker's rights for today wahaha

Gathered back for afternoon session at 2pm. For this session we will be doing free falling and high elements. For free falling, everyone of us must stand at a high platform, hands crossed and fall on the back. The people have to use their hands to support. This game is all about trusting your friends to support you. However, due to time constraint many of us didn't get the chance to play this station. Next, we went for the high elements obstacle. For this station, all we have to do is climb to a piece of wooden plank at the top. Once there, we have to leap over to the other plank. I managed to leap over succesfully without falling. Everyone of us gave encouragement and support to those who are doing it, and everyone of us completed the station with much ease.

Reflection:
Today's outward bound activities has built me up some confidence. The main purpose of all these activities is to emphasize on determination and confidence, and I find it very useful for us. For example, rock climbing tells you to keep moving and not give up easily, free falling wants you to trust your friends and the high elements plank leap focus on enhancing your confidence level. I feel that through this activites, we have achieved and attained a great sense of sastifaction, and most importantly, our confidence level has grown.
