Home Sweet home!!! haha... just came back frm mega camp on wednesday at 6pm...
Sunday 12/11 :Arrived in sch at 9am with back pack and sleeping bag. Met up with my new groupmates for the mega camp which consisted of 20 pple altogether. Met my facilitator, Andrew. Created a group name and started knowing the names of the group. Group name is P.U.S.H!!! Which stands for Power to influene, Unity, Serve and hyper. A.K.A Pple upon 7 heaven!!! hehe... First mission of the camp was to go on an "Amazing Race" in S'pore to get clues and find our coaches to bring us to malaysia!! P.U.S.H was the first grp to arrive!! WOOT! At the last pitstop, we created our grp cheer while waiting for the other grps to arrive and eat their lunches. We used Bob the builder's theme song. " P.U.S.H can we do it?! P.U.S.H Yes we can! x2 , Push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ... 1 more time! Push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah push ah ... PUSH 7!!!! "
Hehe... went onboard the coaches and set off for Kota tinggi Rainforest Resort. Arrived there around 4pm. Collected our stuff to create our tents. Made our tents and went to conference rm to get to know our group mates more. Had dinner and played Seated soccer, which my grp came in as 2nd!! had supper and grp time and went off to slp in our ants-infested tents!!.. .lols!!!... P.S im exaggerating...
Monday 13/11: Woke up and did morning exercises followed by a morning jog. Had breakfast and my grp had to clean the toilets. 2nd mission was to create a 3D map of our camp-site that was drawn to scale... Had lunch and came to mission 3! we had to build small Go-karts using sticks, rubber bands and cards to carry a waterbottle. And the go-karts had to consist of an axle and 2 wheels. Had dinner and played Star Wars which objective was to use candles to burn other group's strings at their base. We could defend our strings by blowing other pple's candles which could be lit again at the base. But, we could only blow if only our candles were lit, if not we were disqualified. After that great game, the whole campus sang "Go light your world" and did the "PL cheer"!! Than we set off for supper and had grp time with our facilitators. Bathed and slept!
Tuesday 14/11: Woke up and had breakfast. and sadly, i slipped and fell. Therefore my leg was injured and it BLED!!! Some kind souls picked me up and carried me to sit on the bench. I wanna thank those who helped me here. Sadly i did not take time to see their faces. Was kinda shocked by my blood which stained all the way to my socks. The medic, Dominic, came and helped me dress my wound. Thank God for my friends and Sister who comforted me. I cried!! wahhh! so embarrassing. Not becoz of the pain though, but because of my Blood??? lOls!! anyway, i still decided to follow my group to go for the rainforest trek all the way to kota tinggi waterfall resort. which all together back and forth was abt 8 km? im not sure... anyway, the trek consisted of my group's ranger pretending to faint halfway so as to test our survival skills, having all our group's things to be packed into 2 backpacks only and also having to blindfold one of our group mates. haha... but sadly, i was not allowed to carry the back packs due to my leg ... -.- my group mates would not let me... kept telling them "Its my leg!! not my arms that is hurt!!" lols... but still, they were kind (: Love them loads! while trekking we learned many songs frm the ranger and finally reached the waterfall resort. There, we were the first grp to arrive and were allowed to go into the water to play. but due to my leg again!!! haiz.. haha... anyway, there, another medic helped me to dress my wound again becoz the cotton wool was flooded with blood again. haha... than we walked back and sang "Dare to Run" at the entrance while cheering on our facilitator, Andrew and Mrs Tng who followed our grp ... haha... ate lunch and we had to do many high and low elements which included flying fox, rock- climbing, etc. haha... i did not do any... haiz... after all those activities, we had dinner and we had Campfire!!! Each grp had to perform an item. P.U.S.H performed a skit on what we did and what we should have done instead. (: Our facilitator was kind enough to act as the ranger and fainted on the ground twice... haha.. For that, he cut his hand ): we all felt guilty and kept saying sorry.. haha... Sorry Andrew!! After much cheering and screaming, and after the Queen of the jungle and Kung-fu master game, we went to have supper and went off to bed!
Wednesday 15/11: Last day of Mega camp arrived. we had breakfast and had to strike our tents. We had our last devotion and most of us pledged ourselves to God to guide us to become great leaders. Than, the teachers gave out prizes to the facilitators. We sang many songs and proceeded to test our go-karts infront of every other grp. After that, we had our group photos taken and even our campus photo!!! haha.. Than we were all awarded with ice-cream!!!!!!! Than we boarded the bus with our belongings and proceeded to Johor Bahru to SHOP!!! We bought stuff for Andrew. We bought him plasters for his hand, a monkey becoz he looked like one, a card which was sincerely signed by the whole grp, a donut bought by Charmaine, some candy and one bunch of bananas!!! HAHAA!!... there some of our groupmates and me ate KFC. (: we than boarded the bus after one hour and headed back to our home sweet home!!!
