Day 1

Accounted by TK Netball Media Crew in KL

Day 1, 23rd May, 2008.
The Netball Teams (TK Thunderbirds, TK Phoenix, TK Swifts and the TK Ravens) and the Media Crew set off for our 5 days 4 nights exciting KL trip. Our main objectives for this trip is to participate in the Cross-Straits Tournament against schools from Singapore and Malaysia and at the same time prepare ourselves for the Nationals.

The day started at 6.15a.m in the morning when we gathered in front of the general office. I felt so excited! I could tell that the others were also, because of their bright faces despite the early reporting hours.

Finally, we departed from TKPS at 7a.m and headed to the Tuas checkpoint before proceeding to Yong Peng for our breakfast. We then traveled to Malacca for lunch and by then, it was about 12.30p.m. On the stage of the restaurant, we were dancing one of the ‘Bring It On’ movie dances. It started when Maverick’s PSP was snatched by the netballers and the only way to get it back was to perform a dance and it created a join-in crowd.

Due to the limited number of seats in the coach, the Media Crew was separated from the rest of the netballers and was put in a van. During the two long hours of the journey, we entertained ourselves by taking funny photos of our ‘sleeping beauties’ especially our coach, Mr. Njoo who slept like a baby. We finally reached KL and checked into our 5-star hotel, which has great facilities. Three students shared a room, which was rather crammed.

Soon after, we went to a warehouse for our food supplies. We came out ‘armed’ with huge bags of snacks and beverages. Dinner was arranged at an Indian restaurant. The dishes served by the Indian Restaurant were all spicy. Tears were brimming in my eyes as I stuffed the spicy egg into my mouth. To my surprise, I realized that it tasted quite good! I glanced around and looked at the hungry netballers, wolfing down their food.

Anyway, we are now looking forward to our matches due tomorrow. TK NETBALLERS ALL THE BEST!!!
