teambuilding - off to ubin

this is the first month i'm feeling the joy of not having BAU closing activities!
sure, I have stuff to do and it's not altogether rosy but finally I don't have to go through the same closing tasks that I've been doing for the past few years. :D
 
so this have been a happy 1st week of the month for me with hours stabilizing so that i can go off relatively on time.
the husband and I even find time to visit the local library with the boys on wed! :)
this is good!
 
and today, some of us left office early for a spot of teambuilding!
even though we have left the business team (finance was taken out of business as a central function almost 2 years back), we were still invited for their almost quarterly teambuilding events. *sweet*
 
and so today, we went to...... UBIN!
in fact, the whole event was kept so hush hush that only until the transport van dropped us at change point ferry terminal then we were aware that we were going there!
it was in fact my first time to the island - not really a sporty/nature person...
 
on the bump boat approaching the island!
 
and so the teambuilding event was we have to first find cards at the herb garden that determine what ingredients we were entitled to and with that, we needed to whip up dishes!
imagine my horror hearing that! I who cant cook for nuts!
so most of the time, I was just hanging around the main chef for my team helping him find the spices etc. not even chopping the vegetables for there are other more capable ladies in my team for that task.. @_@
so it's really drinking beer with some others most of the time.. ha! 
 
the team! can you spot me?
we managed to whip up 12 dishes between us and had that for dinner
 
the dishes are not the tastiest but it was really team efforts that created them so we finished most of them between us.
we took the last ferry out of ubin at 7.30pm - it was a fun evening!
 
some of us continued to changi hawker for some more food and drinks and we chatted all kind of nonsense before calling it a night at 10+pm.
Fridays are best spent with chatting with friends while having drinks and food. shiok.
