back from Camp Diamond!

how was it? I guess it was a good mixture of fun and tough? I was placed in grp 3. We named ourselves ' Ang Dao Teng' aka 'red bean soup' (dont ask me why it is so lame, lols) Anyway, I knew none of the ppl in my grp in the first place but they were all fun ppl throughout the journey! Jeremy was our facilitator, jinglong, martin, derrick, jovin, terrence, jay, shawn, nissa, suetmei, charlene, wings (who gt the same name as me too) were in the same team with me.... and so, the 2 nights and 2 days begins! I try to write down as many interesting part of the camp that I can remember so far (=

1st-15km nighttrail

seriously, I don't how I ever completed that in the first place! WE WALKED ALL THE WAY FROM ECP TO CHANGI BEACH! Started on Fri night at ard 12am and reached ard 6am finally...we just keep on walking and walking with our backpack over a distance of 15km++ with 4-5 stopovers to complete some obstacles. Though I carried the largest backpack, it's was the gangs who had to put the heavier drinks into their bags, (mine was all bread..hehe) My team is like...horribly fast! Our walking is more like running, overtook a team which left like 15mins earlier than us, (that is how fast we were)  In the never ending route, the team just keep on munching on breads and sweets in order to keep our awake and alive too. Halfway through, Jovin gt gastric, so the team slowed down and we walked tgt. Finally we completed the race as the 2nd place (=

2nd- kayaking

I didnt went! LMAO! Beacuse my rashes broke out after i completed the night trail. (in case u're wondering, I will have rashes after my body generate excessive heat/sweat... or simply, being out in the sun will cause rashes) so i stayed in the shade with cath and a few SU ppl and had a little nap while the rest went off to kayak. LOLS! it's nt my intention to slack :p But kinda regret ltr for not going because Kayak sounds so fun and there no sun infact! Still... i appreciate I gt the 2-3hrs nap. The later half, we were asked to help set up the 'spider webs' with the SU. There's freaking tons of giant red ants on the tree! We were like building expressway for the ants to move frm one tree to another...horribly yucks. But the moment I entered the area, my sensitive skin develop rashes again and we left the guys to play with the spiderweb themselves..hehe.

3rd- Campfire

Was in Dairy Farm to conduct this. Ages since I had a campfire! But before that, we gotta cook our own food using mass tin. We had spaghetti that tastes horrible anyway... our spaghetti sauce were mixed with Colgate! Double yucks. anyway, campfire was a blast because everyone in the camp were damn on. Was asked to out do a dance in the campfire.. damn paiseh=.= but still quite fun. Learnt alot of new cheers which we plan to plagarise into the TKD version. HAHAHA.

4th- Games & water activities

like all other camp, we had the usual games like the toothpaste passing, water bombs etc. the mass water was like damn OMG. Before the game started, I was stoning while the ICs were explaining the rules. Then Nic and Cath played cheat, went behind me and 2 water bombs down my head! During the game, Nic cheated again..he took the bucket and half pail is over me. During the phototaking at the end, then the game ICs suddenly spray water in the back...before we could react, suddenly kena 1 whole big pill in the front! I was like in the front and center of the when the water is poured somemore manx=.= Drenched from the head to toes after everything. Well, that was the last activities of the camp anyway.

Food

Food throughout camp was horrible anyway. Had been munching on bread and more bread! not forgetting our colgate spaghetti dinner too. But cabbed down to pizza hut with Nic, cath, alex & linlin after break camp to have our lunch. (=

Bath

damn suay, 1st time, I was Q-ing for someone who spent 1/2hr to bath in the camp and the water was damn small too. There gone my precious sleeping time. 2nd time, i bathed at 1am. damn cold and water was too big, no hook to hang my stuff too. and for the 3rd time, which is after gettng all wet frm water activities... I decide not to bath. bleah.

Sleep

I doubt I had any proper rest in the camp in the 1st place with such packed schedule and i spent the most time sleeping on the roadside/bus/bench more than anything else. I probably only slept for a total of 7 hrs++ throughout the whole camp. Night was damn cold but I learnt my lesson in the previous camp. So.. my night attire were jacket, shorts with another trackpant over, eye mask, (but i forget my sock) and zipped myself up in the sleeping bag! LMAO. Even woke up the middle to switch off the dorm fan...hehe, paiseh ah XP

After returning home, I slept all the way frm 6pm-10am the next day. 16 straight hrs...damn shiok. That's exactly how tired I was.

So yes, Im back now to face the reality. The life with a comp completely wipeout and sooner, a hp with mass wipeout too. I haven't got back my hp frm the service center though. So my life here is basically without communication. and there's some many things i wanna do but cannot do.
