camp has ended! and now everyone is out into the outside world where life begins with complications and all that. anyway.. let me tell you all abt camp!
i'll start of with
pre-camp
it was really messy and a real busy day moving arnd stuff and preparing last minute stuff but i guess overall it went well:) we had like abt 2 hours free time.. was writing and planning some stuff too. and i taught clarence and edward SAT! haha. well done to me! but all the answers came out to like always "C" cos i was like just picking anyhow.
andden on monday..
01dec it was my birthday!
it was the day went all the campers were going to arrive!
and the funny part was this.. no one knew my brithday was on that day only claire.joey.zhimei and obviously my sister! and yeah they did not greet me "happy birthday" that loud so no one knew. andden i think claire told kaye. andden kaye was shouting for my name from the music rm to the conference rm where i was and she was screaming "happy birthday" at me! so so loud. and so that was how all the pre-campers knew it was my birthday!
yeah. going to skip the part on what the campers did and all that sort when they arrived! but yeah.. first day of camp was more on the "getting use to the environment and all that".
yeah had wet games and ice breakers when we arrived! and guess what.. there was this station on like there's 6 pins in the front and we have to slide down on the canvas sheet filled with water plus "mama lemon" haha. a kind of detergent. that makes your tee-shirt really fragant. okok. what rubbish! haha. and my grp was challenging against with grp five! [claire and lifeng grp] and we were only at like the second person of each grp when group 7 already arrived. [steph and nat's grp] and so all the guys in my grp had already went.. and only say 2 girls in my grp went?! yeah. and they were like.. we need one more person and the game would stop! and so everyone.. were like "go sarah go" cos practically.. that day was my birthday.. so they were trying to sarbo me! argh. haha. but it was super fun!
alright. and we played "
amazing race" on tuesday! it was so so fun! i love my grp.
[lisa.maurice.qing ling.mark chiang.johannes.jonathan teo.nicole. plus the three counsellors we have.. michelle.alex and clarence. but practically alex was not there all the time. he only came for camp for a day! and you know what..
I CAN'T STAND THE TOILETS! it's so dirty. from my point of view.. i think the guys toilet is cleaner! argh. anywayy.. during dinner on monday.. it was like super scary when i was talking to my grp mates and all. kaye and some of them were like sitting at the back of me talking and talking andden when i turn back.. they kept quiet and when i turned back to eat my food.. the whole entire camp people was singing 'happy birthday" to me. so sweet:) thanks everyone!
anywayy.. pratically i was lazy the whole entire tuesday so i had to ask nicole to take all my meals for me as i did not want to stand up. sorry. haha but anyway..
i did not ask her to take my meals on wednesday. clarence and i made a deal on like he takes my breakfast for himself and for me and i take his lunch and my own and he takes my dinner and i take his supper for him! it sounds quite complicated tho.
clarence and i got lost while we were trying to find our way to the audi that night with total pitch black or maybe just with a light stick that he found inside his bag! and it was super funny.. cos i remembered that we had to pass this small entrance andden you would be able to see lights already but in the end.. we ended up going to another lane! so stupid. and like after five minutes in pitch black.. we found the small entrance thing. so funny!
haha. yeah and we had theme talks in the morning and in the night. and i fell asleep during one of the talk. [confession time!] haha.
argh. and every single night.. camp comm had meeting in the female leaders bunk that has air-con in it! and it would end really late till everyone practically falls asleep.
and now to wednesday.. had no games but more on group discussion and all that.
and group two people were just talking and talking non-stop abt constipation and all that during practically every meal of the day! argh. yucks. haha had campfire at night. maurice and i were helping justin eng.clarence.edward and all the logistic people to set up cos majority of them were BB boys and BB boys don't have campfires! it was super fun pouring kerosene and all that. but as usual.. they were quite dangerous! but after all.. it was a good skill for me to learn again when the last time i did a campfire setup.. i screwed up the whole entire bottle of kerosene!
and did i tell you this.. camp food is really good! i mean i shld not complain abt it as what i always do! but it's seriously quite good esp. supper! and if i did not mention this too.. P.T sucks. i hate it.
alright. down to thursday.. we played "game of life" there were abt say 13 stations?! yeah. stock market.the den.church.hospital.working place.skill school.secondary school.university and all that. i only visited the church for like er say 30 mins and i failed my secondary school so i could not go to work andden.. i stayed the whole entire time at the stock market trying to sell and buy my shares! and i was called to jail by justin but i escaped tho. haha and i shld have done "skill school" it was super easy kaes. like what i do in guides. have to tie rift knots and do square leash. but actually after like i had so called "quite alot of money" already.. i went to help the "skill school" cos clarence actually needed help. and jac was asking people whether they could lend her their fingers to be practiced at! and she practically ask anyone that was with her. and so that's why.. my fingernails are painted now. and she painted melvin's fingernails too. anywayy.. was trying to give some clues and hints to melissa woo. cos she was at "skill school' trying to tie the square leash! but after that.. she had to re-tie it again! haha. and clarence gave me 300 dollars for painting his fingernails. so so funny:) they look like some nerds now with glitter nail polish on. haha. and my sister got married to yado. and she had children like out of the blue! so so funny! but you know what.. something happened when everyone was like so happy. there was a bee attack and daniel was trying to ask everyone to quickly hide in the toilets and everyone did not listen to him. cos all of us thought it was some kind of stupid and silly joke! and yado and some others were stink by the bee too. but anywayy.. yado was sent to the the hospital cos he broke out into rash and all. thank God that he is now safe and no longer in the hospital! and last night.. all of us slept only at 4am. and what's more is that.. i went for a run that morning. i'm so proud of myself now! actually maurice.johannas and clarence was suppose to join us run but they could not wake up! so it was just justin khoo.kenneth lee.lifeng.ria.yoon sann.and i think that's all. and i tell you this.. don't go running with justin anymore! he runs like some mrt train. haha. when all the others are like still at the very back! haha. and i sort of twisted my ankle! don't ask why cos i might not know why too. haha.
yupps. did not go for a run today cos all of us had to wake up at 0630am and we were too tired. so no one ran. we had to do area-cleaning tho.
yeah and my grp was doing the guys and the girls bunk. sort of dirty!
haha. and i gave a whole lot of m&m's to clarence cos during camp.. we always had like all that sort of stupid "daring" thing. whether he dares to eat chilli and all that. and he dared me to eat as many rambutans on one morning for breakfast. if i am not wrong.. it was on wednesday! haha. and i owed him altogether 8 bucks. so the m&m's came in hand! haha.
reached church at arnd 1230. help unload all the stuff and were placing them back at the rooms where they belong too. and went to waffletown ltr on. [quite alot of us] again.. taking up the whole space in waffletown. haha. and yeah.. i'm back home now.. and my clothes are just damped on the floor. i was messaging halfway at the living room sofa and i fell asleep till abt 8.15pm?! haha. see how tired i am?! oh and i forgot to write this down.. yesterday when we were all going back to church.. and when the campers were on the bus.. i did not have any seat so i sat on the floor. and i so did not know that my angel was just next to me! cos he did not reveal himself to mE! and i was complaining to danpek abt my angel. that he or she was so heartless. and only gave me a note in tissue! argh. and just stuffed m&m's which i did not have any cos of clarence! and after that.. at arnd scgs that area.. someone said" sarah.. i'm your angel" then i went like.. liars go to hell you know.
and he was like it's true! and i was.. ok so.. what did you give me on the first day? and what sweets did you give me?! and what was the flavor of the m&m's?! was it peanuts or milk chocolate and everything was just so correct! argh. feel so bad man. haha. sorry mark chiang. did not mean to insult you that badly.
anywayy.. hannah wants to use the computer now! so i'll let her have it:)
bye. will continue tomorrow!
and before i pen off.. would like to say a BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!!
esp.. THOSE WHO PLANNED CAMP AND THOSE WHO GAVE GROUP TWO AND MYSELF ALOT OF ENCOURAGEMENTS TO COUNTINUE AND NOT GIVE UP! AND TO ALL THE GROUP COUNSELLORS.. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!
