Garuda Softball - S'Pore Trip

I just had an amazing trip with my softball team to Singapore last weekend. It was incredible. In fact, I am not officially a part of the team. I was there as a free raider, I mean, I go there on my own. We just meet there by the time we arrived. The only thing in my mind is just I want to be a part of this trip, take pictures as much as I can, and do anything I can to assist them during the trip. And that is what I did.

This is the first time I go abroad with Garuda Baseball Softball Club. And it was such a wonderful experience. All those young softball girls are awesome. And we get along all the way. 5 days and 4 nights is not such a long time, but it seems sufficient to know more about each other. There was enough time to get closer to every team member. Get in touch with players, coaches, to the team’s officials. We felt the togetherness that we build long before this trip.

Having friendly matches, going shopping, and dining out are the favorite things to be done during this trip. It was an experience and togetherness-rich trip. I really enjoy it, and would never forget it. It gives me a break during my short semester at campus. And it was like a weekend getaway for me from my hectic and challenging life. Breath some fresh air abroad together with those lovely people, and forget the recent most challenging obstacle in my life, for a while.
