Paint Ball


Early in the morning, my friends and I went to try paint ball for the very first time. We started moving out from UTM at 9am. Though we got lost and took a cab instead, we reached there safely anyway. The place is a oil palm estate and it is not as hot as expected. It is quite secluded and greenish haha.


We tried out the starter pack which was rm 15 if im not mistaken. We were giving like 50 bullets each person. The air gun is called the marker. The marker has a safety pin and a barrel sock to avoid misfire. The briefing was short. We divided ourself into two teams and wore mask with different colors. The protective vest and mask were very smelly. Once a person got shot, he can surrender by raising up his hand and walked out of the field. We had 12 people. So it was a 6 vs 6 game.

On the first round, our team was completely wipe out. As we did not know what to do, we just hide there and waited to be shot. The fire power of the air gun is freaking strong. It made one of my friend bleed on the spot where the bullet hit him.

During the second round, i was wiped out within 15 minutes. When i walked pass my own base to exit the field, i was caught in a cross fire and got hit on the neck. It was very painful and my neck was had a big bruise.

During the third round i managed to take out a person which was quite an achievement considering we lost 3 matches out of 4. During that third match, i saw one of my friend(our friend with the initial S.B.) attacking the referrer just because he was wearing the mask which was the same color as the opposing team. It was damn FUNNY when i saw him evading the bullets. In the last match, our team manage to beat them.

During the whole game, i was quite passive and hid a lot behind obstacles. When i was hiding behind a tree or wood, i could feel the strength of the bullet hitting them. I even saw chips of tree flying off when the bullet hit the tree I'm hiding behind. It scared me seeing the bullets were that strong. Anyway, the funny thing was, my friend that got shot in the butt by his team mate. It was hilarious but his team mate did it on purpose as a joke. Well, we ended up spending rm40 with a few ringgit change. It was worth while i guess.

First Post

This is my first post today. It's late in the night but i can't seem to sleep at all. Maybe it is because i still cannot adapt to the university life. Somehow the room seemed so empty and there is no one with me. Even though there are people that visit me, but i still felt very lonely inside. It is a feeling that i wished to rid off.

On the bright side, i got to taste Seremban Siew Pao today. It is not what i have expected though. There are two types. One is the chicken meat while the other is pork meat. I bought a dozen of it and gave some to my friends. The bun with sesame is chicken flavored. I think the chicken is more delicious but it is still not as good as those i had in Sandakan. Maybe because it's cold or it's just my imagination. It costs about rm1.20 per piece so whether good or bad, i think it has its worth.
