Ice Bath

So one day the mighty HRB asked if we brought extra pants. And underwear. (we shall never underestimate the power of underwear) Said he was going to take us swimming. So we were all like "Yay!" and very excited. Except for those who had no extra underwear. So he told us to wear no underwear. O.o

Anyhoo. So we all went to change and then we asked Huang Lao Shi if he knew where we were going, but he didn't know. So...when HRB the Mighty came back we all had to go help unload his car. Here's a quick inventory.

1 Inflatable pool
1 Air pump
5 Bags of ice

Ice. I kid you not. Apparently we were going to take an ice bath. Ice bath. Totally ninja-style, man!!

Okay. So the guys were supposed to bathe first. So the girls went back to the room. Then Zhen Xuan came to call us, so we went to the bathroom lor. From outside I could hear Wei Yoong's and Rocky's (Rokkee, haha) voice. Yelling. Like mad people. At the top of their lungs.

Then we entered the toilet. I saw Kenray and Jia Jun jumping around like crazy. Really crazy. And smacking their backsides. Hoho. Then I looked around the corner and saw Rocky, Shaun and Wei Yoong sitting in the pool, yelling at the top of their lungs and clapping their hands. Something like:

Wei Yoong Rocky Shaun
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! *clap clap clap*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! *clap clap clap*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! *clap clap clap*

Hee hee. So Teacher Robin said he would brief us first on how to do it. (I think he thought we were going to take our clothes off) So we waited outside the loo. Then the guys all filed out saying things like "Aaah, so nice!" and "Wow. So fun!" and after they all trooped off, Shaun appeared at the door of the toilet going "Argh!" and collapsing against the doorframe. This did not comfort us one bit.

So in we went. The small kids did one minute, I think, while the big not-kids did two minutes.

Teacher Robin Me Janisse Denice

One...two...three! In!

*all step in*

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

*stop to breathe*


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

And so forth. I tell you, the water is not cold. It burns! It burns the crap out of your legs!!! It burns the way only ice can burn. Basically, it burns.

But after that we felt very...numb. Woo. Noodle knees. Heh.

Later I found out somebody sat in the ice, jumped up and out of the pool, pulled down his pants and started smacking his own backside. And he wasn't wearing underwear. Huhu.

And then Teacher Robin took pictures. Oh noes.

Did the ice bath again today. With 7 packs of ice this time.

Now I know that our whole team can do nanquan because of the way they shout like gila.

Woosh! My legs were cold for a long time afterwards. Acks!

Oh yeah. Today Wei Yoong's foot met my head while I was sleeping. Then my foot met his face when he tried to whack me with a pillow. Hoho. Revenge!

Neh. The small kids never sleep! Argh!

Denice shall now be known as Chun Li. When I say "Chun Li!", you all must say "Jia You!"
P.S. Denice, this is all Wei Yoong and Rocky's fault.
