A Robot named Wasabi Koma

Remember those cartoons featuring the robotic knights (like POWER RANGERS) with different strengths and they can eventually combine into ONE giant robot to fight the giant monster?

By the end of the Shah Alam Xciting Race yesterday, I sort of see this analogy between a Robot wand my team -- Wasabi Koma. .. -- Well, OK, MINUS the 'Robotic knights with different strengths' part.

I don't know how would my teammate think about this, but I really saw a ROBOT was rushing around throughout the whole race course -- A robot that composed by 4 members (NO, I DO NOT say we're robotic knights here..) namely Fariz, Zana, Coco, and myself; a robot that functioned well and did not have any major hiccups, a robot that enjoyed the race course passionately, a robot named Wasabi Koma, a robot that finally ranked the 6th out of other 34 teams in the same category.

How Wasabi Koma robot worked?

AbangFariz, first of all, is the soul and the master mind of the robot. Experienced, composed, strong and steady. If you manage to recall the robotic cartoons I mentioned earlier, Fariz is the knight in RED colour, who always sit in the heart of the giant robot, in charge of the main control of the whole operation towards the mission.

Next, Zana. The knight in PINK or YELLOW because of the feminine factor, but that doesn't mean she is relatively weak. Zana, I would say, is the eye and the brain of the Wasabi Koma robot. Clever, fine-hearted and sharp-eyed, when you need accuracy and precision to be done, she's the one to be called. Elastic striking, paintball shooting, sodoku, quiz, weaving... she'll handle them like eating nuts!

.. Chop. Back to the robotic knights or rangers cartoons, you should have noticed that besides some smart and steady and reliable characters in the team, there must also have 1 or 2 troublesome but aggressive character who always lost their way and lost their cool, and always be scolded by their team leader... -- Here come Coco and I..

Coco and I are like the arms and legs of the robot, which, I think, we couldn't function efficiently without Fariz and Zana -- Hey, wake up! How could your arms and legs function if your brain and your heart do not tell them what to hold and where to go? Considering that both of us are the youngest (hey, I am!) and 'supposed to be' the most energetic duo in the team, we always run and swim and climb and ... erm..catch ikan belacak , as quick as we could. If you still accept us as knights or rangers here, I'd say both of us maybe the rangers in BLUE or GREEN or BLACK colour.

Although there were, due to my reckless and brainless action, several incidents that had been quite frustrating (like running around Shah Alam Garden like a headless fly and causing Fariz and Zana shouted like hell...) or even ALMOST ended up like a disaster (like jumping off from a kayak and ALMOST capsizing it and then get Fariz drowned in Shah Alam Lake.... huhu..*phew*..), I still hope that nobody among our team would think that there's a big tail on the Wasabi Koma robot's body, because --

-- the official statistic proved that Wasabi Koma performed so efficiently at almost every task, and we lost our race time only because we're playing the game decently and we raced with sportsmanship.

Again, thousand thanks and thousand sorry, and as well thousand KUDOS to WASABI KOMA, for making the 6th place and raising our teammate-ship to another level! Love u lah!
