hehe. today was our sportsfest and i had a hell of a blast. during college i stopped participating in activities that had something to do with kusug and paugnat. but today, i felt so alive. joining all those events made me feel so high. hehe. yep, in the end, we were the lowest ranked group but i can truly say we played the HARDEST. haha. true to it's name, our team, Cotton Candy (don't ask me why the hell we're called that - and yes our team color is PINK!), we may seem soft but we play hard. we worked together as a team, bonded more with the entire group, and had fun. i joined three events, tug of war (which lasted for like a second..haha), shootfest (takeshi's castle kind of game where you shoot each other with water guns) and the oh so exhausting, exhilirating, most kapoy but lingaw event of all, the obstacle race. the tug of war game was a bore. because we weren't a match for any of the teams. haha. well, i'm not making excuses but around 70 of the population in accounts payable are girls. and they had big guys lined up in front. with just one pull, we were hopeless. now the shootfest game was something i didn't expect it to be. it's a game played by pairs. i was half of the pair representing the men's division for our team. the set-up is on a pool, on an inflatable boat - one paddles while the other shoots at the opponent's paper-thingie target until they're destroyed. reminds me a lot of takeshi's castle. so yeah, the targets are attached to our heads and we are to shoot those of our enemies until we're the last ones left. to cut the story short, we managed to end the game with our target in tact. victorious at last. sad to say, that was the only event where we got 1st place in. hehe. but it was so much fun. i played like a kid. hehe. after which, i swam in the pool for a while because i haven't gone swimming in a loooong time. although it was in the shootfest where we were victorious, the obstacle game proved to be the most exciting and exhausting of all. it rained on our sportsfest by the way but we didn't care if we got dirty. we swam through mud and dirt (on the inflatable obstacle course..hehe). i liked this game because we all worked as a team. we had to interact with each other, think up strategies to end the race faster than the other team, and complain about our dirty clothes and bruises. but it was in this game where we really bonded as a group. no such thing as team leaders or band 2s. haha. we were all equals doing our best to win. unfortunately, we didn't win any of the 4 rounds of the obstacle event. some got sprained, some slid and got hurt, but it was all worth it. of course there were other games that were very exciting as well. there's the volleyball match were we keep on ALMOST winning but never do. we had the paintball event where we won every round except for the finals match (oh how unlucky we are), there's the flag football, the velcro event, boat race and swimming. i can only wish i joined them all. if i knew they would be so much fun, i would've signed up for all of the events. hehe. oh well, there's always next year. my first sportsfest in P&G was a blast. i still can't get over it right now, actually. too bad i didn't have too many pictures because stupid me forgot the SD card on my laptop. hahay. oh well. sorry, i only have 2 decent pictures on my camera. hehe. and i'm not even in them. i will be uploading an entire album once i am able to grab a copy of the pictures from my teammates.
