We eat, pose, camwhore, eat, then we gathered for game of Taboo whilst still eating....

The Taboo is a word guessing party game published by Hasbro. The object of the game is for a player to have his/her team guess the word on his/her card without using the word itself or five additional words listed on the card. The game is similar to Catch Phrase, also from Hasbro, in which a player tries to get his or her teammates to guess words using gestures and verbal cues. Taboo was later the basis for a 2002 game show of the same name on The New TNN, hosted by comedian Chris Wylde.^{[2]. For more information see: Taboo.}

The rules of the game is get the team to guess as many cards/words within 1 minutes.

When it is time... The DBK will make sure it is known!!! Like below:

Shobha: STOP STOP STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everybody else will take turn picking a card and giving hint to their team members.............

and everybody else will guess the words... whilst the kiasu Luyen holding the 'timer' high up ......

After 2 Hours of Taboo...... we, being the Gentlement that we are, let the other team to win and started another game called Charade. Charade is the opposite of Taboo. See:Charade. With taboo, we cannot use body language for hints; all hints must be in verbal but no verbal or spken hint is allowed with Charade. With Charade, ONLY body language is allowed.

No no no........... its not Monkey..

1 syllable... No no no..... its 2 syllable eh... oh forget it...

Errr.. its sound like me...... It feels like me............ No its not Me!!

Errr...... Aaaaa......... Mmmmm........ Eh.. yiiiiiiiiiii ... i give up 

Heheheeeeee........ errr..  Hmmm.... Oops no talking .. Ok ok... eh..

Listen... Let me think............ HAH!!!!!! eh.... 

Read me Shirt.... BRAIN FREEZE!!! sh@#t... its really frozen

Danny what you doing? .......... do what you got to do.. I'm eating..

Everybody so serious wanting to win.............. damn kiasu

Our night ended early at 2am. What a taboo & Charade night. I grew up with Monopoly and Scrabble... this was the first time I played taboo & Charade and it wont be the last..

A good start for the weekend... we had food, taboo, charade and camwhore......

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY 

& 

HAPPY NEW YEAR

OBC-FEB 6/12: DROP DEAD SPRINT WORKOUT...

.

Its half-way through the February Bootcamp session and two days into the Chinese New Year. A very challenging month for ACE with the CNY holidays but thusfar, we are all still ACE....

Even before the Chinese New year, we were given FOUR "ANG PAWs" today... two 40 seconds Squat Pulses from Farah Ahmad & Scott (the two AWOL) and twice "Time Added" from Chun SSJ (for being greedy wanting to take heavier sandbag from Nawal) and Nyna Mohsen (for not listening to instruction).

There were three Red-tee trainers today, Sergeant Simran, Corporal Faizal Ariff and Lans Corporal Elin Klemetsen Fossum and two trainers trained with us in grey t'shirt Lans Corporal Stephanie Chok and Hafiz Omar.

Our platoon was divided into three sections according to their rank, the Delta, Seal and Ranger. The Delta began with Lans Corporal Elin. Lans Corporal Elin had the Delta on TABATA (Twenty Seconds workout, 10 Second break and active again) for 4 minutes on a One-Leg Squat, Tricep Dip, One-Leg Squat and push-up. This TABATA circuit was repeated for 2 sets of 4 minutes. Its either we were all concentrating and fantasizing the killer leg or everybody was still asleep but there was no sound or noise from anyone. I entertained myself looking at other Deltas.... some had a perfect form and some were quite funny especially on the one-leg squat.

The next circuit under LC Elin was the Duck Walk-up Steps.... Here, I was thanking god for my longer leg than some.. some delta with shorter legs had to struggle more to walk up the giant step. Then we did the One Leg Lunges which I avoided and took the option due to the knee problem. I can feel the ass and thigh muscle contracting in pain on every movement. Finally, we did the deep-squat before we were sent to run across the rugby field from Goal post to Goal Post and to Sergeant Simran.

Sergeant Simran awaited us with a line of sandbags. The Delta was split into two group (G1 and G2) and both group were aligned in partner facing each other. I partnered with Nawal. On TABATA-relay; Thirty Second active, 10 second break, Thirty Second active etc,  G1, was given an exercise and the G2 performed a different exercise. The workout was alternated after the 10 second break

The first set of exercises are as follows:

G1: Squat Hold; G2: Squat Pulses (then alternate the exercise with G1 doing Squat pulses and G2 did the Squat Hold, this was repeated for a total of 4 minutes). Legs again!!! My ass was burning in fire and the thigh was crying for mercy but no, we did not cheat....... I wanted a Thunder-thigh!!!

G1: Curtsy Squat; G2 Squat + One-hand Sandbag Swing (then alternate the exercise with G1 performing the Squat + One-hand sandbag Swing  and G2 did the Curtsy Squat, this was repeated for a total of 4 minutes) ...and again Legs!!! Leg workout felt better with the correct form! Most of the time, many recruits compromise the form while in exhaustion. this led to various injuries including the knee. Truthfully, we should observe carefully the form during every exercises... and less whining on listening to the body for injuries (stick tongue out at someone).

G1: Sandbag Touch D' Shoe; G2 Side Bridges; (then alternate the exercise with G1 performing the Side Bridges and G2 did the sandbag Touches D' Shoe, this was repeated for a total of 4 minutes).. Jacob-8 PACK workout.. no complain.. !! Thank you Sarge... but please give more abs...

We then moved on to Corporal Faizal Ariff and his Mock Rifles. Every Delta had to carry a Mock Rifle with both hand at chest level (at all time) and run to all six yellow cones. At every yellow cone, we had to lie down facing the ground ala 'drop-dead' and continue sprinting to the next cone. After sprint and 'dead' at all 6 yellow cones, we reached a square made of 4 red cones. With the mock rifle at chest level and both leg together, we had to jump into the square box and back out of the box to sprint back to start position. It all sounded easy until the young Corporal  drop down on the ground and sprinted with us screaming our names at every yellow cones to provoke the maximum effort...... I love it!!!! but then... BEEP BEEP BEEP... alarmed my polar heart rate monitor watch, as my heart beat exceeded the maximum heart rate. Damn...

After three rounds of the 'Drop Dead Sprint' circuit, we were re-born and the exercise was changed. The next set, we had to raise the mock rifle with both arm stretched high up above the head (at all time), and instead of dropping dead at every yellow cone, we performed a one rep lunges (with both arm still stretch up holding the mock rilfe).......... Yaaaa. Leg again!!! Today was all legs... perfect!!!
.
A Kick @ass workout? Today was litreally a Drop-Dead Kick Ass Leg workout!!!!

HOOOOOOYAAAAAH!!!!

Suloshini Jahanath, Aisan Lim....... next benchmark, please aim for Delta. We need more DBKs to replace the Shobha DBK that is expected to give-up in March... I mean She is going on One-Month leave in March... or perhaps, i need somebody new to pick on haah.

Thank you Farah Ahmad, Scot for the Squat Pulses Angpaw, Nyna Mohsen & Chun SSJ for the 'Added-time' Angpaw.. please do it again! Hasimah, thank you for the KitKat Angpaw.. 

I burned 640 calories today. To friends driving back to hometown or holiday during the Chinese New year........ Drive safe and don't Grunts and Drive...

STAY TUNE for weekend specials...

OBC-FEB 5/12: TRAIN WITH TRAINER DAY

.

60 GRUNTS AGAIN........... Its the second time this month when KL Alpha was given 60 Grunts punishments... which of course, we did not mind. 40 grunts for AWOL, 10 Grunts for Syed Mahadzir Syed Manshor for not wearing Hard-Rock Cafe Tshirt instead of the OBC T' shirt and another 10 grunts for F@#k'ing... I mean cursing. On completing the 50th Grunt, i was so excited that I screamed the universal word F@#K.. which means..I DID IT!!! but Sarge understood my scream literally as F@#K. That was how we got our last 10 extra grunts. Tomi Soetjipto did not curse nor did any swearing of bad words today... He infected it on me instead.

The boy-hair-cut-look, super thin Stephanie Chok, trained with us today..foregoing her Red trainer T'shirt for a session with us... and she was super duper fast overtaking our super duper Delta Kenny Smith and Chun SSJ. Me......... I was being ambitious and screamed STEPHANIIIIIIIIIIE... as I sprinted all the way to catch up with her but.... maybe I need to cut my  hair shorter than her to speed as fast as her!!

Now that is what we call "trainer by-example"!!! .. the second trainer after Sergeant Simran that I had witness a 'performance' beyond expectation...

Today session was all about Run-Circuit-Relay..... the platoon was divided into a group of two.. G1 and G2. On the first set, G2 began with the 100 meter sprint and while G2 ran, G1 performed the Cross-Country stationary run. This was only the beginning of today's Hell-hour.

After 6 minutes of a few 100 meter laps and the cross country, the relay was stopped for the Second set, a change in the exercise. The 100 meter run was replaced with Tap-the-knee while running and the second group performed the 8-Point Body Builder. The Tap-the-Knee-Run was done with both hand fix at waist height and each knee must tap the hand while running... after a few laps, someOne decided to touch the knee instead of raising the knee higher to tap the fix-hand-height. Oops.. time added!!!

The 8-point Body builders starting point is at standing position (point 1). Point 2, form a push-up start-position. Point 3: Down as low as possible for push-up; Point 4: push the body up back to push-up start position, Point 5: Spread open the leg with back and arm straight. Point 6: Close the leg into the push-up start-position again. Point 7, bring the leg in with knee nearest to the chest and both arm on the ground. Point 8: stand up. When G2 completed the run, we tapped the shoulder of the G1 as a relay and G1 will now start running and G2 performed the 8-point body builder. This was repeated for another 6 minutes.

The Third set was also for a fix 6-minutes and we are back on normal sprint run, the relay exercise was the military sit-up. My Favourite!!!! Waiting passionately for the arrival of the now-hidden-under-a-layer-of-fat-6-pack abs!!

The Fourth set was for another 6 minutes relay run and the other group did the One-Hand Frog. The start-position for One-Hand Frog was similar to push-up but with one hand on the ground and the other hand at the waist. We must then jump bringing both leg forward into a squatting position with One-hand still on the ground whilst the other still at the waist. This was a killer exercise!!! but I could not cheat because Sergeant Simran performed the exercise with me.. and his form was PERFECT!!! I think Tomi Soetjipto tried to cheat too... Sergeant Simran went and did the exercise with him until Tomi Soetjipto was 'noise-less'. This Sergeant then went to another recruit (and another and another) and did the all the exercises with them!!! Sarge Simran, simply cannot stood quiet!! He is actually the reason we are all so Kiaasu!!! I love it!!!!!! ......but I simply dont understand how a frog can be so fat when we almost died doing the frog-step.

The fifth set of Run-Circuit-Relay was the 100 metre run and the Side-Bridge. The Side-Bridging is one of the most important exercise for those 6-pack dreamers..... like me!! So I did the Side-Bridges with passion and was very noisy as the excruciating muscle pain worsen....

Everytime we ran on the 100 meter track, Lans Corporal Elin like a phantom, appeared out of no where several time (or should I say, many times) during the 100 meter track.......... and you can hear her whispers........ Armin.......... Armin. I thought I was hearing things but the thought of a Hantu-calling my name..... woke-up me up and I ran faster and quicker.

I was very proud to see Rachel Sebastian and Saroop Rampal ran and gave their full effort while running. In fact, everybody did well.

HOOOOOOYAAAAAH!!!!

I burned 703 calories today. 

It was an excellent run with Trainer Day today!!!!!!!!!!

STAY TUNE for the next kick @ass workout...

WHEN CRAVING TURNS CRABBY...

.

We must have broken our life-time record in barely two months into the new year with endless cravings for crab...... thanks to someone whom kept mentioning the crappy word crab! This  year... or in barely 1 month, we had crab at fatty crab @ Taman megah, Kampunt Thai 33 @ Ampang and Nong & Jimmy at Pandan Indah, Nawal's Crab Masak lemak cili padi and Shobha Bala mom's cili crab at a potluck dinner..... Last night we were at LALA CHONG SEAFOOD RESTAURANT @ ARA DAMANSARA.....

Lala Chong Seafood was originally located at terminal 3, old Subang Airport and that was where we headed to hunt for our next crab meal........ somehow, we were always lost when navigated by Ili liyana Baharon. The last time we hunt for Nasi Lemak Tangling navigated by Ili too, we ended-up at Pelita Mamak Restaurant.

The Lala Chong Seafood was relocated to Ara Damansara. We called, spoke and verbally navigated by Dr Malek Aziz to arrive at the restaurant at 8:30pm. Farhanah Bamadhaj, our Order-er (dont bother looking into dictionary, its a term given to Farhanah for always ordering on our behalf.), ordered our meals.. and the fried prawn in milk arrived first... unfortunate, we wallop everything before we could take any pictures.

But the dishes that arrived after that was....................

Fried Crab in Salted egg.... THE BEST!!!!

Sour & Spicy Crab....... NICE....!!

and Kailan..... yummmmmy!!!!!!

We also had Cockles (lala)................

and tasty buns... that tasted alot like Paw.......

Those crabs were gorgeous.. the prawns & cockles too were excellent......... but we did not order any rice........ apparently on diet!!! After indulging ourselves in good food and crabs , we chatted, gossip and talk crap for a few hours....

We then asked for the bill and pass it to Farhanah Bamadhaj as the check-er (dont bother looking at dictionary for this word too). After the check-er verified the bill, each of us paid only RM50  and we went home short of a multiple orgasm......... but an orgasm indeed!!!

Please do not ever mention the Four-letter word again...........

We left home a happy man.........
