The Ropes Day

It wasn’t ordinary a day; it was full of excitement and fun day. In hidden part it was an experience and learning out door. When Professor Johnson told us that she would take us to ropes, I thought she would take us to museum. But when she displayed the pictures, I became excited because I love to try these types of things. (Adventurous things)
Personally speaking it was good for me, because my classmates knew me well and understood me too. We learnt how to build a team and trust ourselves and others.
The first game (commander & attacker) was so good, it showed us how to work in group of two and trust our partner and listen to what he/she says while our eyes are shut.
The second game (wood) was amazing. I really loved Abdul aziz idea of separation and gathering again. If we weren’t separated then lots of voices and ideas would came out. We were separated and each group came up with an idea and we shared and then we made the decision.
Last one, (spider house) was unbelievable. When the coach asked what is your aim and goal. I thought we have to open all the mesh and think of new thing. But when he said that we have to use the spaces to come out, there I was staggered for a while…
Actually I didn’t tell them that I don’t want to be carried by men but the Malaysian boys said it. And I'm really thankful to them.
This course overall told us about leadership and ’can-do’’ spirit. We figured about that there are lots of leaders between us, some are listeners, planners and others are doers and decision makers.
Thanks all

  2. Those were amazing! I believe groupwork is much easier than solo. That's why so many business need cooperation.
