wahaha, see im so nice, i blog here first instead of my own blog le, when plenty of other faithful readers are waiting for me...
DAY ONE.everyone came to school as usual, cept for me. i came late haha. and i noticed ashley, jia min and some other people brought trolley bags. er... i shall not comment la. i only know i brought too much stuff when people like zi le brought only like, ONE battery bag.
after surrendering our handphones and wallets(
did you? hehehe), we went on the bus and went to sarimbun camp, passing empty dirt roads, cemetries
and malaysia and finally reaching Sarimbun Scout camp.
blahblahblah camp groupings and briefings. Then after much crap, went to go pitch tents. by now weather quite hot, and everyone was like spraying on insect repellent and yeah, it was damn hot la. then, being the slow people we are, we kinda delayed everything until lunch, which was alright, was an hour later, group flag making also and yeah. btw, im from group
Adrian. we had lunch duty btw, so all we did was serve and clear up. not that much really. and we had fun doing it anyway.
ROCKWALL CLIMBING.
the wall is 7 stories high and i only managed to reach like, 2/3 of it? yeah and it was really stressful when people are down below yelling at you to go to your left or right because both are difficult. but thanks for the cheering, even if it's not true. =D i think i heard several other people had screamed for their lives. Joanne never climbed, but Wei Cheng was NOT pro also, nvr climb nearly 3/4. haha.
RIVER CHALLENGE.
we had to cross the river in 20 minutes, using either all, or some of the materials given: 3 poles, some rope and 3 tubes. everyone had to wear a life jacket. and we basically got wet i guess. oh and since we were always with group
Bond, so we did things together. yeah,
Bond finished around the same time as us. hmm i guess the most significant thing about the game was that when we had to tie the rope around this small tree, the rope actually pierced through a whole nest of caterpillars. and something about the bristles of the tree was poisonous i guess. i got only a few strands but Benjamin had his hand covered with them so it got numb and he had a fever after that. as, annoying as he is, we shouldn't call him a loser because i bet he didn't want to get sick either.
NATURE RAMBLE.
bah! i hate mud at that time but after the whole thing, it was very fun because we got close with spiderwebs and trees and dead fish and snails and murky water and plants and leaves and plenty of other things you might not want to say. well, at least there were no bees, because
Justea had a bee attack drill at the spot where everyone was supposed to roll, lie or sit in the mud. we didnt do it because, haha! we had no time. i kinda regret it though. anyway,
Justea had to duck into the murky water. eww. hahaha. there was also a story of AN OWL which was nearly 2 metres long and had a nest just outside the camp. it hasnt been spotted for years now, so most think it died or it flew away.
then anyway, we went back, kinda tired and tried to shower, but alot of girls were occupying the cubicles, they were the lucky people. others just showered in the outside shower, which i think those who stripped are really seh.
dinner was delayed for us because some of our members werent back on time so we had dinner when everyone was washing their utensils. yeah, so we were so hungry that we finished our food in 10 minutes. then reflection by form chers were boring and i slept through it really. bathing was near impossible for girls like me because bathroom was full and sleep was fitful. bloody sand, mud and insects.
#####
