Team building

The trip to Port Dickson was nice. I was actually down there for my department's team building session. Have to wake up at 5.30am and a Saturday! and then take the LRT to the office to meet up with all the participants. About 120 of us but only 6 from my (sub) department were able to make it, but it was still all very fun.

We departed from the office place at 7.50am after when everyone finished breakfast that was provided. We reached Port Dickson's Guaman Resort at about 9.30am. Guaman is a nice place, but I think very expensive to stay. I heard that this resort was the most expensive among the hotels and resort in Port Dickson.







All of us registered ourselves and then proceeded for the ice-breakers session and then a half a day of briefing and speech by the big bosses. I have actually learnt quite a lot about the history of my department and its growth in the past years. Currently we have 180+ staff in the department! Yeah mannn that's really a lot in comparison to last year! They only had like 90+ people. And according to my manager, we are going to see even more growth. She's expecting 250+ of us by the end of the year. We are a really really big department man.

During the ice-breakers session, we all found out that what we were doing was actually forming our teams for the team-building after lunch. And guess what? I'm so lucky. I got to team with my big biggest boss, my manager! She's like on top of the company hierarchy for my department. I don't think I'll have another chase to work with her in such close in the office.

After the talk, it was lunch time. The food was so so but all of us were stuffed. We then proceeded outdoor for our team-building activities. First up it was commando obstacles for us. Physical Training.



We didn't do all that in the pictures though. I don't think my company would actually arrange for too difficult trails for us. Not all of us are physically able to perform all the commando trails. There was also the flying fox but ...nope, not for us. *darn* But all is good. There were some trails that I found to be scary....and dangerous if one cannot do it.

It started raining at the ending of the session so even was looking for shelter and most of us were wet. I wasn't that soaked because I had my umbrella! Muahaha! I decided to bring it along in case it rained when I need to walk home from the LRT. When the rain stopped, we proceeded to another field for another set of team-building using the head. Mind Games.

All off us headed back to the conference room for our lucky draw and price giving. My team came in 4th out of the 8 teams. Hehehe OK ma. We only had 2 guys out of 13 in my team. Oh yeah, my team leader for the team-building was a Japanese! Wahahahaha! We all left Goaman at 5.30pm and reached the office at about 7pm.

I didn't feel like going home then. So I decided to stick around in KLCC and go for the Heineken Music Thirst completion semi finals in Zouk later that night. Michael was taking part. I had spare clothes so I decided to visit the RM2 toilet in KLCC to freshen up. The toilet looks the same as the ordinary toilet actually. The only different was they had 2 lilted candles burning and body shop and Johnson and Johnson baby products for customers to use. So of course I sprayed a whole lot of body spray on myself to cover up whatever sweaty smell left on me. But now when I think back, ....OMG I'm so dirty! One shower in the morning, and sweat like hell in the day and then go clubbing? HAHAHAHA I'm so gross.




Michael and his duo. They call themselves Boxset. They spun mixtures of everything. They were good at capturing the crowds' attention. Michael hid under the deck and wore a Gorrila mask for his closing! and he picked tracks that people were more familiar with. I kind of like the 4th DJ that came on, just after Boxset. He was a solo, DJ Learn. Ahhh but he was pumping hard trance like no one's business. Awesome stuff man. Too bad I wasn't in my cargos... my pair of jeans (and I didn't have a belt on) was dropping every time I danced.

Yesterday was energy draining, but was fun.
