Okay so hi. Well, I've gotta study. So I'm gonna make it quick, I think. On the first day, we had to come to school real early because they had to brief us about what's gonna happen. It took at least an hour. We then had a land expedition, in simple terms it means we practically WALK to our destination. Which I would like to say that it's at freaking Changi! Exhausting, yes. Engery draining, yes. Fun, no. Definately not. So we got there and all. First thing we did was get into our bunks with our huge bags and wait for lunch. It was pretty stupid, really. Why? It's because we have to wait for everyone to finish getting their food before eating. And there's at least 300 of us. So screw it, most of us ate. After that we did team building games. The class was splitted into two and for my group, we had to get everyone on top of this rock without anyone falling off. It was kinda a mircale, I would say. There were at least 17 of us on this huge rock and none of us fell. Excluding the fact that En Qi was screaming her lungs out cause she was being pushed off. The next one was this obsticle by which the whole group had to get across to the other side with one wooden plank and 3 rocks. We managed and off to absailing! As far as I can say, it pretty much scared the crap outta me. The insturctor asked me to lean back, so I did. And when I did, I took a glimpse of my fellow classmates and bang! I let go of the rope so I fell and hit my head on a metal rode. Yeah, ouch. But I managed to get down safely and yay! Next was zipline. Only a few gotta do the zipline and I was the fortunate one. We had dinner and campfire prep before they let us shower. I was shagged that night so I slept soundly even though my body ached. Day two on camp Camelot and I managed to get a quick shower before the day began. Breakfast was average. You don't really think about weather the food is great because once you're hungry, it doesn't really matter. So to start the day, we did a multi vine rope element. I was terrified like crap, serious shit. We had to get to the other side on a single rope over 4 stories high. Scary much. After that we did the Burma bridge and something stupid happened. I won't call it stupid. I'd call it attitude problem or should I say, racist jerks. Bitches didn't know when to be serious and when to joke. Talk about major fucked up. Whatever. And as if my day couldn't get any worst. My partner bailed out on me while kayaking in the middle of the ocean. I had kayak with Kevan cause En Qi felt sea sick too. So in the end, I got ultra pissed cause my current partner couldn't row properly and he left me to row by myself. But lord answered my prayers. Kevan had to switch with Shol so I was suck with Shol. Couldn't complain much though, it was way better than Kevan. No offence. Campfire prep was horrible. The class wouldn't cooperate and I got pretty pissed. Eventually, we performed and no one understood what it meant. Whatever la k. It's the effort we put in, not what you see. I was exhausted and managed to get into deep sleep even though there were a lot of planes flying over us. The last day was exhausting. We cleaned the boy's toilet which was digusting, mind you. Someone HPP-ED all over the floor and I nearly barf cause of the stench. Most of the class helped to clean which included me, duh. Lol. But I seriously helped okay. We finally got to go home and I slept from 230 to 11pm. How awesome. I woke up at 11, watched Tv and I went back to sleep at 1. Overall, the camp was alright I guess. The food wasn't that terrible. But the toilets were. The frigging toilet was flooded because of the poor drainage system. One thing I learnt was that motivate is everything. Because of 3a3, I managed to overcome my fear and finish the obsticles. Even though I shouted and sceamed my lungs out because of their incooperativeness (is there even sucha word?!), they're freaking awesome. Labels: Sec three camp, si bei jia lat. |
