after looking through all the station, we decided to start from the nearest place first and slowly go further down to far places.
and so first station, Republic Polytechnic. we have to look for those people in green, i swear it's so hard to look for them. the whole poly is so big, who the hell know where they are hiding at? we walked for very long before finally found them at some corner. there were actually at somewhere very near the entrance.
started off with some quiz to complete, all of us started browsing handphone, go online and look for the answer. and second quest is to play the bowling made of water bottle. just throw and throw the ball to hit all the bottles down and we're done.

the quiz and the bowling game
completed station number one, we decided to head further down to Hort Park. this was the worse station we went through, we wasted 2 hours plus at Hort Park looking for some unknown-weird-ridiculous plant name.
yeah, this station dealt with crossword puzzle, we have to go according to the hints and walked around the whole hortpark looking for the correct plants name. there was this stupid Thailand plant name which made us going round and round the Hortpark like mad.
the in-charge there insisted that we completed the round. we went online search but cannot find at all. all our handphones 3G until battery all die! in the end, the in-charge there see us so poor thing, finally sign the paper and let us leave to next station.
grrr. two hours wasted here :(
HortPark
crossword puzzle
and Corntos given by them xD
at HortPark
station two cleared finally, after 2 hours. and then, proceeded down to Farrer Park. this station we were given 8 pictures all taken in different angle.
we have to base on the picture and look for where the picture was taken, and we have to use our own handphone or camera to take the exact same picture in the same angle.
we were hunting high and low for those pictures, wasted around 1 hour or so.
Farrer Park
the 8 pictures
next up, to Mount Sophia. i think they really purposely placed one station there, the staircase up there is so high. and i bet they will be up to no good, so when climbing up the stair, i counted the steps too.
and true enough, they really asked us how many steps are there. the team before us have no choice but to go all the way down and climb up again counting the steps. while our group, heh, we were prepared. it was 137 steps ^^ hahaha. and when the team before us climbed up for the second time, we were already done with this round! yeahhh!~ say boo to them xD
8 @ Mount Sophia
look at the people in green waiting for us there
going down
137 steps yo!
next station, to SMU School of Accountancy. i don't like this round, we were made to draw henna on our hands. awww, after negotiating with them. we were allowed to draw on our leg instead ^^. at least on leg, i wear long pant can cover, yeah!.
don't really like the smell of henna. heard that henna needs a few days before it really goes off, so i drew a very fine line of the picture, hopefully it will goes off faster and easier.
and second stage, we have to do paper cutting too. Moo did it anyway haha

and well, we don't have much time left. *SCAPE would be our last station before we head back to Woodlands. it was the most easy station, just to fill up the missing lyrics for the song only. anyway, everything can be found using handphone. hahaha.
