YO, I'M BACK FROM CAMP! ^^ I SURVIVED IT ALTHOUGH I DONT RMB HOW I SURVIVED [?] THE FEELING OF ATTENDING THIS CAMP WAS SHIOK! :D At first, being the only girl from my own school kinda sucks, it feels lonely. However, I knew people from Whitley, Springfield and some Juying sec sch . The feeling was kinda new! :D My group is Cousteau ( go check who is this person ) and instructor is Chloe! :D Combined tgt w/ Junko became Camp Two Delta! First day, we learnt to pitch up tents and kayaking. Seriously, I don't know how to paddle and turn. And we're gonna to be out the sea for practice kayaking. Thank you, parnter for partner w/ me :D ( Idkhowtospellyourname) . Second day, headed off to another campsite with a backpack of 8litres of water and our personal clothing & shoes. It was so damn heavy. You can get heatstoke/fainting easily siah! Not joking. Learnt how to belay . And when I climb, the instructor want the climbers to let go of hands and legs, the belayers'll put us down. SCCAAARRRYY! HAHAHA! ITS OKAY LA! Then we all went off to the real high element. This was really much scarier. I did until my legs shivered like shit. And the another instructor very "funny" la , ask me to walk backwards on the bridge which is leaning towards the right. I did and started to walk & I PASSED THROUGH! YAAAYY! ^^ Had our games and reflections at night before sleeping. Third day, we had our land expedition. We trekked for hours! Our backpacks were filled with freaking lots of ants!!! And when Cousteau went the wrong way, and we are supposed to reach there by 4. Thus, we went back and started to go the right way, we chiong 2km road in 25 min! :D IT WAS TIRING! We faster pitch up tents and learnt knots & lashings. We guys faster cooked maggi mee for ourselves. At night , weather turned bad and everyone stayed in their tents for 1 hour ++. Oh, did i mention, that we all are sleeping in the middle of jungle for this day? Nvm, we have to wake up at night to do 20 mins per tent. Seriously!? I woke up at 12 plus to do. Scary & sleepy much. >< Fourth day, we guys are supposed to wake up at 5.45am. But due to the bad weather in the morning, we went out slightly later, packed to load up our bags to the safety boat. In the end, Junko and Cousteau had to team up to build a raft. Not easy but quite fun. When it was done, the raft was lodge into the sea and Cousteau had to kayak on it first. Shiok sia the feeling! Next is Junko. But we're very clean as we went inside the fresh water to kayak actually. THE FEELING IS LIKE SOO NICEE~ as we all never bathe for one day. Then, we all headed to sea expedition. Parnter up w/ Khayhow and everyone started to kayak. Everyone kayak through the river, the swamp & sea. Experience before getting stuck on the mud and paddling on it. After 5 hours of kayaking, we all reached back our original campsite. Pitch up tents, bathe and cook dinner. And 6 girls squeeze into one tent, but it was not hot, you know why? Because we all pitch up tents near the beach. We all slept like a log until we woke up late 15 mins later. Fifth & the last day, we woke up, packed all the things inside the store and had our life run ( reflection ) . I almost cried when our instructor started to cry. :'( We started to draw and write what does Cousteau means to us, all sort. But in the end, instructor teared up and gave us one piece each. MEMORABLE MUCH!! >< We headed back to Punggol and I bought 3 OBS tee :DDDDD Hahaha! 5 days and 4 night camp is seriously very memorable!!
