oh yea it was :) I certainly enjoyed myself and we all also got to know each other better. I'd say this camp was a very successful one and it's also the first time our Bowling IG held a camp outside of school, at a chalet! :)
Day 1
Reached school around 7:30 in the morning. Yeah I was too early, haha! Thankfully Wisely reached around 2-3 mins later than me, so I wasn't so bored and had company while waiting hahahaha. As usual there were people who were late but we waited for most of em anyway :) And something funny, people like Kennedy brought his BOWLING BALL to camp. We all laughed cause we didn't need one. It was just a bonding camp for everyone and there wasn't any training involved, hahaha. He also brought so many bags. One for his shirts... the other for his pants... the other for his towels... etc. That definitely made my start of the day. I couldn't stop laughing hahaha. Anyway... our camp started off in school with icebreakers. We played a few games and all of em were fun except for the first one hahaha. We had to sit in a circle and there were quite a lot of us. And we each had to say our name, followed by 1 thing we like and dislike. But the hard part is that, let's say your the 3rd person (which is kinda lucky already as there were so many of us), you'd have to say your name, dislike+like, followed by the 1st and 2nd person's name and also like+dislike. So it was sorta of a memory game and I was like the 2nd last person in the circle! So I had to say from the 1st person alllll the way to like the 25-30th person? Hahaha. It was tough! After the games, we had a short breakfast break, a not too heavy one. Then we got split into our teams for our AMAZING RACE!!! :O Hahaha. It was really fun but very tiring as we had to run with our own bags: bagpacks, sleeping bags, whatever bags, hahaha. My team was the 4th to leave and we were kinda enthu at the beginning as we were so excited then we ran from school all the way to woodlands mrt and managed to catch up with the first team that left school, at the mrt itself. So we kinda took up a lot of space on the mrt and my team alighted at bishan and took the circle line to esplanade, which was our first stop/station. We had to look for Kingston and his team and we had to find envelopes with clues that were pasted anywhere/all over the esplanade building itself. We could only find 2 out of 3. The last one which was at the rooftop was quite tricky/difficult to find. It was stuck behind a small "wall" which was kinda covered by a bush. Hahaha. Oh well :) Then we had to solve another 5 more questions before we could find out our next stop/station. My team spent about 10mins on it? Hahaha and managed to decode it: FUNAN. So we took a bus down to capitol building and walked over to Funan. I have to say that this stop/station was quite tough and required a lot of thinking skills. We had to kinda think out of the box and also look for post-its at the shops that we were supposed to find out or look for, from quotes & short sentences which were our clues. Okay I shall skip all the details that we did cause there are too many, really. Haha. Our next stop was... SINGAPORE FLYER! This stop/station was kinda funny and a bit hard hahaha. We had to put potato chips (5 in total) on our foreheads and try to eat em without the use of our hands. So we all kinda did funny gestures on our faces and I swear we looked retarded! We also had to drink a can of mountain dew with 3-4 straws together so it was really long haha. We managed to drink it in like 5 seconds I think, hahaha. We all got caught on video somemore! After that my team had our late lunch @ Popeye's :) After lunch we headed to our next stop/station. It was somewhere around opposite esplanade, "Our Glorious Dead" something... hahaha. We had to do 3 things over there. Firstly: we had to pick 1 member to do this. It was to have him blindfolded and walk through chairs in a zigzag manner and to also stand on the chair, with the help of the other team member's instructions/voice. Secondly, we had to find and eat marshmellows that we buried in a tub of FLOUR. It tasted disgusting and gross, pui pui pui! hahaha. After this stop/station was Suntec's fountain of wealth but we ended up at Starbucks instead and we had to say A-Z backwards within 3 mins. My team had to do a forfeit and take 2 pictures with foreigners before we could move on to our final destination which was our CHALET (like finally), haha! So we did it and then headed to our chalet which was a terrace at downtown there. Aloha Loyang I think, I didn't really notice. Hahaha. It was a big chalet :) We put down our stuff, relaxed awhile and then went out to ehub to have our dinner. Came back, bathed, slept at around 12plus-1. I didn't sleep well for that night :( too noisy and hard the floor, haha.
Day 2
Woke up at around 5 in the morning though we had to just wake up at 6:30 but some of us got ready earlier and I just couldn't go back to sleep so yeah, haha. Then some of us played card games till 8 plus in the morning and then we left to have breakfast together at Macs. Breakfast was nice and I realised many of us had different ways of eating. I laughed at how much chilli sauce Suhaimi took, like he put it on the cover of the big breakfast and covered the whole cover with chilli sauce! And Cynthia, cutting it up like a pizza and eating it slowly and neatly. Joey covering the whole patty with pepper and salt. And many more, hahaha. After that we had treasure hunt around the whole of downtown and everyone was still quite drained from the amazing race then but still, we played. Hahaha. We had to take picture with certain groups, find empty soap bottles, cigg buds, insects, etc. And the sun also killed most of us on that day, it was so hot! Haha. As my team and Gabriel's team had somemore time left before meeting back at the meeting point, we went to play mini bowling at the bowling alley, hahaha. After meeting back at the meeting point, some left to eat and I left with some others to go back to the chalet to rest and shower. At around 2pm, we all played charades in our teams again, both acting and drawing. We played it for like 1 and a half hr if I'm not wrong, hahaha. After that we could bathe and have our free and easy time to ourselves!!! The part that most of us had been waiting for, hahaha. Me and a few others went to the arcade in the chalet itself and also the children's playground for awhile before heading back to the chalet to wash up. Aaron, our captain, made preparations for a buffet dinner in our chalet from a caterer. Food was definitely gooood, hahaha. After dinner, Wisely, Kennedy, Akif, Ariff, Suhaimi, Afiq, Zahid, Wan, Cynthia, Meiyi and I left for ehub's arcade and also bowling. We spent like $40+ on it and also played 1-2 games of bowling. We exchanged a friendship beads set from the tickets we "earned" and bowling was very funny with our cmi scores, haha! We then headed back to our chalet which was already around 12plus. And back at our chalet we decided to go for a swim and they even had a slide, so we got changed and went to the pool! We were there for like 3 hours. Some seniors joined us too and we played monkey in the pool. Haha. One thing I'll never forget is Wisely slipping into the jacuzzi! Hahahaha, real funny. Somemore the jacuzzi was quite warm. So it was like a sudden change of body temperature for him I guess, hahaha. We headed back to our chalet at almost 3am and bathed. Then we did the friendship beads together and tried making one for everyone but there wasn't enough so we only made for those who went to the arcade. After making I couldn't wait to SLEEP so I went to sleep. It was around 5:30am then.
Day 3
Woke up at around 9am, packed everything, left for our breakfast @ White sands, Arcade, cabbed home with Vanessa!!!
