Felicia, Hafizah, Eleanor and i met up and took a cab to school cos' we figured that, our bags were going to be extra big and we wouldn' be able to fit into the crowded bus. My morning started with a morning run. Why? Eleanor forgot to bring her TOOTHBRUSH (loads of ppl didn't) and i had to run to the provision store to get one for her. When we arrived in school, we saw that we weren't the only ones. Pamela brought 2 big bags, and several others did too. So, all for the embarassment. Aaron and i wore the same outfit. LOL. People were like staring at the both of us la. Scrabble black polo tee, 3/4 cargo pants and sports shoes. Awesome, Aaaron kept his promise! Anyways, we were then separated to our houses. Damned MingYi and Chris pulled out of me and didn't go for the camp. So now, the only people i knew were Edmund, Eric, Crystaline, Edwin and Kai Feng. No choice lor, everyone different group. Had to mingle around. The last thing on my mind was to run AGAIN. This time, i had to run up to the computer lab to get the camera. Mr Rusdy didn't prepare the stuffs so when i arrived at camp, Viva realised that i brought the wrong charger. WTF WTF. In the end, they only filmed 7 minutes.

Okay, so.. when i arrived at the campsite, i was super happy to see Viva and gang la. I practically hugged them and they were like, o.0! But was very very happy to meet them again. Now i realise how much i treasure them as much as how they treasure me (as if i know). But i think we can't live without each other in our lives cos' we're very close, and we do almost everything together. "All for one, one for all!" Kay, back to camp. Our first activity was some wire-walking, or so i call it. Quite okay la, cheered a lot for mates. Met some new friends like JianHao, Liana(i think) and got into better terms with Suresh the big guy. The next was almost the same, but this time, on a single log and didn't have any support. I almost gave up la. Haha, but i managed to complete the course cos' my team who cheered non-stop. Also, suresh gave up but again, team spirit, he gave another try and succeeded. The next one was i-dunno-what-i-should-call-it. Pretty frightening, the trainer, Alicia told us that it was to conquer our fear of heights. BOTHER. I wouldn't say i'm afraid of heights cos' i do tend to get a bit wobbly on top. Almost caught onto the "white-thing" but my hand slipped.

After that, we had lunch. Catered fooood. I'd rate 7/10 la. Probably cos' i was tooo hungry. Joined the gang and had loads of things to say to each other. See, told you. We do almost everything together. After lunch, we continued with abseiling. I think i took an extra long time to be comforted, lol. I was up there saying," I can't do it! Cannot!" LOL, but the trainer had me going and i finally arrived on the GROUND. The funny thing is, when Matin did it, everyone cheered cos' he was damned afraid of heights and didn't dare to look down. So when he was going down, he landed on his butt instead of his legs cos' he really didn't dare to look down. Next up was rock climbing. My worst element of all. The first and last time i did was during my primary 5 camp and hey, i didn't do well. Eric, Edwin, Mazlinda and some others reached the top, which was pretty AMAZING LA. Utterly disappointed with myself. We did the flying fox next. I was supposed to be the last but JianHao decided to give it a try too. Friggin scared la, first time somemore. While i was in the air, the trainer took a picture with his phone. I went WTF la, haha. WHY ME! I pratically got "bullied" by 2 trainers already. First was SKY who kept hitting my helmet, LMAO. Not that bad though. Then, we took baths and had supper. The weather there was awesome i tell you. On going wind and the smell of the sea, woah, i told the gang a couple of times, i wanna live there. Minus the heat though. For the first night, i slept very well but counted the aeroplanes flying pass before i went to sleep, which was 1am.
Also, i forgot. We had our night walk. I walked with Felicia instead cos' Viva was a leader and he couldn't walk with me. :'( Felicia grabbed my arm like one sausage la. PAIN LEH. Haha, i didn't fear a thing when i went in actually. Cos' i read multiple prayers in my heart and just kept looking out for light sticks. Oh ya, some kukus tried to scare us. Some who went in before even told us that they saw "something" and what Michelle told me, "walk on the left, trust me". The trainer even said,"They don't like necklaces ah, watches also, hairband all take out." I was reluctant. Cos' i never took my necklace out unless it would really cause me ultimate danger. I didn't la. Suprisingly, Felicia and i walked so quickly that we caught up with Eric and Edmund in front. Funny, JingZhong and Rong Jie was behind us too. 6 of us walked together la. Haha. When we were back, we had a debate on Pre marital sex. I went, WTF LEH! Girls was supposed to SUPPORT it. Again, WTF! I'm so against it and now you want me to turn my back on my opinion? Furthermore, Clarisse and gang icked me as one of the debators. *DIES. But the girls won in the end cos' the guys went really out of point when they started talking about AIDS and such. Come on' la. GIRLS RULE! Girls won 2 ice-cream each. But i gave one to Ashok cos' i couldn't finish it. Went back to sleep after washing up lor.

Day 2

Wooot, the most anticipated event and most exciting of all! KAYAKING! I didn't wear my brother's booties cos' only the trainers were wearing and i was .. PAI SEH LA. haha. I paired up with Eric cos' supposed to be mixed la. Eric and i almost capsized once, but thankfully, NO. Not at all. Very fun la. I had to drink the sea water as well. Anyways, 3/4 through the course, Eric was giddy cos' of some idiots who keep crashing on purpose into our kayak while forming the raft. While paddling back to shore, Eric got a bit more dizzy and i had to paddle alone. Quite okay actually. Still wondering how the female trainer can move faster ALONE. Crystaline and JingZhong ehaded back to shore too. Loads went back to shore la. Everyone had sun burns except ME. :D Was laughing at them the whole time la. Haha, all red and all were complaining on how much they turned darker. BOTHER. Don't complain about being dark la. I hate hate hate people who hate to be dark. Why? Dark = ugly meh? Prove to me lor, use me as an example la, fine. I may be dark and ugly, but check out the other dark people. Take for example. Don't Black women look awesome with their blad head and dark skin tone? Wa lau, go check them out, they're pretty more beautiful then the fairer ones. I'm not criticising, but stating facts k? We had lunch after that, and started the orienting. We walked in East Coast and i was the only girl in my team la. SIAN. But Ashraf, Firdaus were very supportive. WE DID IT. We enjoyed though it was very tiring la. But we lost by 25 points. Still, we have pats on each others' back. We did well. *APPLAUDS.

Also before that, (sorry, memory low), we had to cook our own lunch. I went to Darren, Edmund, Eric, Ashok and Jonathan as a group la. Funny people. We had trouble cooking our noodles and had to eat raw. Like Darren and Ashok, who put in the eggs thinking that it was cook. Ashok, with the help of Jickky, mixed the egg yolk and all. YUCKY la. Both Darren and Ashok had to eat raw eggs. RAW EGGS. Another problem was with the sardines. The wind was against us lor. So the gravy splashed here and there.. While cleaning up, Jonathan was carrying the plate full of sardine gravy. Guess what happened? THE WIND BLEW AND EVERYTHING SPLASHED ONTO ME LA. WTF WTWF!!!! LMAO, that was my last PE shirt and i had to survive the whole day like one sardine too.

After dinner, we had campfire. Campfire was awesome with Michelle beside me. AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! We danced to the songs, sang our hearts out, and presented our cheer very well (we got 3rd placing). At first, while gathering near the fire before cheering, Firdaus and i got hit by the sparks. LMAO. Then one by one got it and honestly, it hurt badddd. Could have burnt Viva's hair in fact. XD After the campfire, it was Disco Night, which i really didn't think was grand at all la. All the dirty dancing and stuff.. Didn't join. Instead, joined Mr Taufiq, Mr Chai, Eric, Darren, Hafizah and Felicia on the benches. We were like REJECTS waiting for people to invite us to dance at a prom night. Haha, funny. Darren did some what a "dance" that made me laugh loud la. Funny. Mr Taufiq even wanted to pay me 10 bucks to cry cos' Darren wanted to do something to me. LMAO. After Disco Night, we had supper at around 12. Mariam, Viva and gang had to leave camp for their scrabble competition the next morning. Sad.. really sad. Again, had a great night.

Day 3

Didn't do much cos' i spent half the day in the sick bay. I woke up with sore eyes! Damned Kai Feng la. LMAO, kept staring at me on purpose while he was supposedly be resting in the sick bay. Mahsury and i both got on the same eye. After cleaning up, i gave up with the pain and told Michelle that i was going to the sick bay. I was sad la, i wanted to end this BOOT CAMP with happiness, but i did in the end. Rajes didn't allow me to go back down to join the rest. So, stayed in the air-conditioned sick bay with 8 other people. Slowly, Joshua, Sathies, Darren Low, Manfred and Afiqah joined. Funny la. Kai Feng was entertaining us all the time. He took out the sleeping bag and told us that it was his mermaid suit. So, while he was busy standing and talking, Darren and I counted to 3 and pulled everything down. "SAO RAO AH!" LMAO. Had loads of fun la. Kai Feng then wrote some help messages and practically pasted him onto the door. Then Farhan came,"Eh all you sick people.." We were like, "OI!!!!!" LMAO. He was too afraid to open the door cos' we were extra infectious already. We made loads of jokes la, but unfortunately, brain not working well now. Haha, but we got onto the bus FIRST and arrived first too. I cuddled up with my sleeping bag in the bus trying to sleep. I will definitely miss the trainers, wind, sea, aeroplanes, funny people, him. Amazing stuff. I rate this camp a 8/10. But nothing can beat my primary 5 camp 9.5/10! Wooot.
