NBT Car-Toon Hunt 2012
Hey guys!
How's your day so far? It's the dreaded Monday after all. Mine has been a busy one. Day started really bad but things get better in the afternoon. Met up with an old friend over a cup of coffee and lots of catching up on both of our lives. I've just received a piece of news, which I think is not that good cos I don't want any promotion in this project that I was involved in last year! I've got quite a number of stuff to handle already!
T^T
I'll leave that to fate and see if I can squeeze out of this one! Wish me luck!
Anyway, as mentioned in the previous update, I participated in the treasure hunt that's organised by NBT yesterday with my friend, cousin and cousin's friend. The event started earlier this year compared to previous hunts that I've joined. We left for ICC from Seria at 4.10 am! Wow! I've not got up so early before not unless it's to the airport. Hehe...
We reached ICC a lil after 5 am and we were the 43rd car to flag off. The first car waited at ICC at midnight! Wow! The challenges are fun (all those cartoons themed challenges for example, synchronised swimming on land? and thank goodness no more hiking! :P) and hunt questions are slightly easier compared to the previous hunt. Ok, let me take the last bit back. There were 2 questions in leg 3 that were soooo difficult that we got stuck looking for the answers for quite a long time. So, we completed all the legs and submitted our treasures and questions at JIS.
We had lunch and rested for a bit before the afternoon session. My my, it was a memorable one cos Vj Jiggie(I don't know how to spell his name) was so damn funny! He got the whole lot of tired hunters laughing out loud with his wacky moves and funny remarks! Not forgetting the Tarzan, Jane and ferocious tiger role plays too! *two thumbs up* Thanks for making everyone's day even better! Then, hunt questions were explained followed by the announcement of the winning teams.We didn't win anything this year but it's ok. I believe one day, we'll win something. Haha
Congrats to the teams that won! :D
Now, some pictures before I end the post. Pictures courtesy of my cousin except for the last one being mine.

A growing crowd!
This went onto the bumper of our car.
Ceiling and walls in the theatre at JIS. Really beautiful I'd say!
People donning cartoon characters!
Po, Batman, Woody, Captain America, Snow White, Spongebob, Peter Pan, Shrek and Ghostbuster!
Overall, yesterday was a tiring but FUN day. Another thing to sum it up, I LOVE this year's cartoons theme! Gotta say it's the cutest hunt so far! Thank you NBT for creating all these lovely hunts all these years. We shall wait patiently for the next one(hopefully next year!).
