Paintball more like Pain Ball

the peaceful of siLence


On July 26, 2008, I forgot to add up about RWP Paintball Tournament which is held at Astaka PJ just nearby Tun Hussin Onn Eye hospital.

They announced it thru email and I was like >>o-O<<> when I saw my name was there.
It was Saturday morning ;(I had to wake up darn early, 5.30 am during weekend to be precise!Akmal offered to fetch me ;) im so lucky.
So, nevermind. Akmal arrived - chatted a little with my husbby and off we go,to PJ, for paintball. I reached there, with butterflies in my stomache. Thankfully I had a dose of coffee in the morning. It seriously helps I tell you!
Coffee~ Coffee~ Coffee~ Breakfast was provided there.
We waited for everyone to gather and a briefing was given beforehand. All the rules; do's and don't were emphasized and explained and boy, Actually I was scared, my hands were trembling. Xl
Listening to Mr.Commander (forgot his name) explaining about paintball was urm,
entertaining actually.
The moment has arrived, everyone was gearing up and separated into teams. Mine's consisting of:
Razib the QA guy our COOL TeamLeader, Dzir the IT Guy (but he did'nt turn up), Shavan (she's one of the boss secretary), Danial from Structural dept, Azlan from Support Dept, Azwin from Instrument and myself !
Game time!! It's so hard to breathe under the facemask! I seriously suffocated many many times.


Can you indentify who is who?
For sure you can..:P

Before paintball, kena pose pose sikit for confidence!
Soldiers, onward march!
This is right before we headed in for the first round.The gun (it's actually called a marker) was pretty heavy and it's so oily!The pellets that we shot out is actually really oily,once you step on it you'll glide like you've stepped on a banana peel!
So for a final confidence boost before battle!
Safety is a must to be obeyed or face the consequences!

Our L&D Team
So this is how our battlefield looks like.there are tons of things around for us to hide ourselves.
I tell you, whatever confidence you have beforehand,
For the first round, it was like so crazy can!It was my first time in paintball, so it's very hard for me to be "in the zone."I was thankful that I have that Radzi guy backing me up.Luckily I didn't get shot, and I wasn't aware of the surroundings.
Suddenly, Zamri the Mechanical guy who was on the enemy team forced me to surrender!He aim his gun right infront of my head.I can't do anything but to surrender but I vowed,Zamri, I'm gonna get you!
And indeed, I got him!I killed him in the second round!I killed him first with a headshot and then a buttshot.Muahahahahaha happy gilanya aku!
During the third round.Luckily for me, I didn't get shot at all! Although I did kill a few, hehehehehehe.Fourth round, I couldn't breathe!I was so close to passing out so I just stay where I was I don;t even move,I gave my marker to Danial who ran out of pellets and he managed to get the flag.Our team won for that round ;)
For the final round, celaka-ness I ran out of pellets! But, I managed to kill that QA girl before I ended my session. Yay for me!
It was so tiring after we ended, everyone was just drained!But we had some leftover pellets, so we did target practice!We took turns to shoot and it was nothing fun la,just shoot at objects only!I'd rather be shooting humans! (everybody was so damn exicited to shot Mr. Rashdan our HR Manager including me) hahahahahahahaha.
Everyone enjoyed the outing very much, Thanks to the Learning & Develop Department. they work hard to make this happenthat I can see. Hopefully there'll be more of these exciting outings to come!

From this pain-ball game we learn how to be alert so that we are not directly in the angle where they shoot. I only got shot three times during the whole tournament. tell you what,.. after sleeping for 12 hours straight,my body is still aching. I can't even walk up the stairs without feeling excruciating torment,but thinking back about the crazy times I had with the Shouters and shoting that QA girl that day, (sorry eh Liz) it was well worth every drop of sweat and adrenaline rush.But unfortunately haven't been to any since then.this is fun to play and fun to shoot nice action shots!Hehe, yep it is fun. It is challenging as well! Like being in war zone tu la i told you guys, wanna burn some good calories, go paintballing. the energy used, the adrenaline rush fused together hehe, and you'd lose fat too hehe So, before we leave,
we all had lunch after paintball!We were tired, and hungry! Overall, the outing was exciting and I guess everyone will remember it with a BANG! Some even have marks etched on their skin as remembrance too. Hope you guys heal soon yah!

Finally I got the Certificate of Participation From Team Work Clinic
for the PaintBall Tournament held at Malaysia Paintball Academy, PJ.


YeHHH... Bravo to me!!
