In the second round, they change position. The group who has many survivor, they win. My class (X-8) against X-4. Here I became a supporter, because I didn’t join the game. And happily my class won. After that I supported women’s doubles in bangsal with my classmates. X-8 against X-7 and finally my class won. I am so happy that my class never taste defeat. But unfortunetly, when relay race my friend slip so we didn’t win. Next, tug of war’s team have prepared on tug of war’s place already. Tug of war is a game which is played by 2 group, one group have 10 people and they must pull tug with all strength until another group can’t pull it back anymore.  Here I become a supporter again.
