a spot of tugging

the evening came with large ominuos rain clouds hovering overhead, threatening to postphone the event for yet another day.


still, the calm weather prevailed and although the monash sports carnival was to have ended the previous week, we participated in its final event - tug of war.


there was a total of.. THREE teams participating in this event and we had to go through two rounds to clinch the title of "tug of war champions".


the other teams were the student association of monash and erm.. a bunch of friends calling themselves the rojak team or something.


what can mbc do against such opponents but to win. and fast.


musa photographer temme lee exclaims, "why did you guys have to win so fast? it was over in just 4 seconds and all i could take was a photograph or two!".


the whistle sounded and we started tugging. the strategy was to place our biggest and baddest man (sesshy) at the anchor position (the back) and tug our hearts out to the cries of our president, "kill them all! kill them aaalllll!!"


the field was a little mucky due to the rainy season and those who faced us soon found themselves sliding over the soggy ground. i contrived to remain spotless as i had to fetch qianyi from the ktm station afterwards.
