Adventure Camp =]

Saturday, September 5, 2009

Haha first thing first, i am back home now.. Break camp at around 8.20am haha =] Cool, could go home and rest.. =] haha I would tell you about my three days two night camping =]

Day one,

I was very tired as you know it's Friday; wanted to rest at home =[ Never mind.. I went because I thought it would be a fun camp =] When I assembled at the parade square for inspection, my officer appeared to be a very kind one =] XD Yeah !! At the start of the camp, he told us that he didn't want to be too strict like the normal camp we had because it was supposed to be a fun camp as it was adventure camp =] Slowly we took out one by one from our bag pack =] We sang song, listened to some briefing about building a Basha as the basha was part of our camping objective =] It looked pretty simple at start but when started building it, it seemed like damn tiring because all the while we need to ensure that the foundation of the basha was good.. Took two and a half an hour to complete 14 basha only ! X.X By the time we finished building, it was 11.30 pm ! X.X We cooked maggie noodles for our supper... I didn't feel like eating =[ I lost the taste of maggie noodles =[ I hate it now =[ It seemed crappy and 'kanasai' to me now but last time delicous; wonderful; sensational =[ Well never mind about the food as long you were hungry or thirsty, you wouldn't bother to care what you were eating or drinking =] I wouldn't complain about the food because it was only $10 for the camp fee and plus the food quility was good enough to filled my tummy =] Well, during day one, didn't sleep well enough =[ First, it was very cold as we were sleeping outside at the open field of our school, perspiring a lot and lastly, almost rained =[ LOL ! Well, basically the tent had two open sides so we just crawl in and crawl out.. So i fell asleep at about 12.55 am then suddenly i woke up because something kept poking me, i thought it was some insect but turned out to be my buddy wallet kept poking me =[ Oh by the way, my buddy and I had a good time inside the basha when we were about to sleep =] I presumed the story =] Then later i looked at the moon and soon dark clouds formed, wind got stronger and stronger, everybody was still shivering in their basha but not yet awaken lol.. Then my buddy woke up because he was very cold =[ So we wore our socks and put on our shoes for warming ourselves=] Then we were laughing at everyone because they still thought it was paradise lol .________.ll Then a strong gust blew down the equipment at the canteen and made loud clanging noised =] It did wake many primers and officers up so they told us to proceed to the classroom to rest =] I thought it was already 5am but it was only 2.35 am ! lol... Had very difficult time to sleep because the ground got harder then before =[ My head hurts and my hand numb =[ Haiz, the first day destroyed my mood...

Day two:

I was more enthusiastic about day two because we were going for HIGH ELEMENTS ;Rope Course =] In primary five, we had some sort of similar camp and they brought us to the high elements to carried out some activities there =] I Played the flying fox once, though i was pretty afraid of heights but i didn't look down and continued climbing =] It swift down fast and hit furiously on the plastic block at the end of the cable to stopped the thing from going any further... This time round very different, how different ? No Flying Fox =] Haha.. It was held at the Boy's bridgade campsite =] XD Haha, pretty old but some of the things there seemed new =] Never been there before =] So was very curious XD We started out with playing games, hehe Fun =] I especially like the one which called ''blog'' something couldn't remember.. But it was very exciting =] It was about four of us held each other hand and the other two at the both ends of the ''human string'' each held one styrofoam circular cylindar-like block =] Well though it was just using it to wack the other parties leg but very interesting =] Well there had lots of mosquitoes haha XD So helped us to beat our legs, killed some mosquitoes haha XD After that, we had our lunch and continued our next challenge =] The low tension rope =] Well, again looked easy but when do, very difficult as in to balanced ourselves holding each other hands =] Next challenge was called 'Rebirth'.. Well didn't know what was it at first but later then know what was it for =] It was to increase the level of the group members teamwork =] hehe.. We rest a while then we moved on to the last activity of the day: High Element ; rope course =] Haha, sir was afraid that we were at the top, we would shivered and trembled if worst, pee on the pants, so he asked all of us to go pee first then come back =] haha X.X I learnt many things though, example like wearing a harness =] Command when up there, tension or slack ! X.X slack : loosen;eased, Tension: Tighter hehe =] The used of carribean =] Haha Mostly about safety =] Heard that no accidents had ever occur there =] So it seemed pretty safe =] haha I tried the 'Heebie lunge' and the 'Cat Walk on a Log' ! X.X Crap =[ The heebie lunge, it was about three storey high and i had to lean on a white rope in order to walk on the cable =[ It gets tougher when the thing was reaching the end =[ Thee white rope gets shorter and your position must be like pumping position ! X.X I managed to complete haha =] I leaped off from the position and grabbed the rope immediately =] XD Haha Pretty scary but fun =] Next, i tried the Cat Walk ! LOL zz Crazy =[ It was four storey bloody high and the log was round =[ The instructor told us to be like fashion models lol ! -.- But at the same time balancing ourselves =] I didn't able to did a perfect one but instead did crab walk =[ Too high =[ At least, i tried =] Experienced =] XD Actually i was not afraid of the height, i was afraid of slipping and falling down =[ Later then, went back to school to shower then i rembered that today have 3/4 mile parade programme ! GOSH ! .. Quickly went to second level and took 36 chairs from the examination hall to the ground level and carry all the way to the classroom block to arrange =[ Wa! Made me perspire like nobody else business =[ I didn't had the chance to had a good break during dinner time =[ Was rushing to complete everything in the programme =[ We played games like caterpillar walk, hand tangle, mind game and hide and kidnap =] I love the caterpillar walk the most =] Haha because we expected them to carry one by one, per chair to the foyer in twenty minutes =] For those who know, good, don't know that's your problem haha =] XD I refering to the caterpillar walk =] XD They said we were torturing them =] XD haha But it was just a game, can take it as exercising your muscles =] XD haha The other game was not really that fun =[ I move on to the promotion period =] XD haha I was promoted finally =] X.X Moreover we had bubble tea and roti prata for supper .. HAHA YEAh! I do missed those food =] XD Long time eat once should be nice =] haha XD After that, I heard something that made my jaws dropped =[ My officer in charge of the whole camp told us that tomorrow morning three am had to wake up for hiking ! Oh My God! But never mind stilll, i did expected that to arrived =] haha XD It was the matter of time =] The happiest thing was, i slept smoothly well =] XD

Last day ;Day three:

In the morning, i was very cold that i chattered my teeth along the way to the toilet to brushed my teeth =[ Fortunately i didn't bite my tongue or lips =] XD The Hiking was very exhausting =[ Plus my whole body aching =[ Especially my feet because for the past two days kept running around like crazy =[ Nevertheless, i completed =] XD One thing i didn't like about was one of my group member, he was leading then he didn't even knew where to go =[ LOL ? He was older then me somemore, he should be more experienced then I do but instead the secondary one boy and me was leading=[ He was obliged to be the back of the group and one of my other group member lead =] We walked through a pathway at Sembawang park that leads to bottletree and walked back from there onwards back to school =[ By the time reached, whole body expired =[


Well it was about adventure so it was sure to be something adventurous for us =] XD Looking forward for the fun camp at the end of this year =] haha XD Hope you guys enjoy your holidays =] XD
