Shiok and fun for the past 4 days.
Went to the Adventure Camp at Jalan Bahtera last few days. As u know (okay, u might not know), I sort of being "forced" (oops, a strong word) to go. At first I am very bored, seriously. The thing is, im a sec 3, and people all around r mostly sec 2s (facilitators not included), so I feel like quite hard to mix with them, and it is weird! Oh and I forgot to mention something that made it worse, most of the sec 3s there are facilitators, and ... U know, juz weird.
So I was in group 8, being facilitated by Justin Yeo and Simone - okay, still not so bad, at least I know them. For the rest of the group members, I only know Yang En. After a few ice-breaking etc, we went to the camp site by bus. Wow, very long journey, took us 45 mins to reach there.
Every group is appointed one instructor, and ours was the super lame type one - I mean all the instructors are quite funny, I think, but this one is the damn lame type one. Anw we dint see him much in the first day, except for the flag deco. Our team is called Angel cuz we were lazy to draw anything on the flag, so Joshua (oh this is the instructor, forgot to mention) ask us to leave it blank to show the purity of angel, something along that line. After lunch, we learn how to belay and stuff. Nt much for the 1st day, maybe except for campfire prep.
Second day was fun! We go do all sorts of high and low element stuff. Bt for now I only can rmb abseiling, Rebirth, and kayaking. Abseiling was fun, although when Im a bit scared when I "walked" down. Then rebirth... I think this is the silliest thing I have done man - not in the negative sense of course, but Joshua actually asked us to roll on the mud if we wanna play. Justin was the so-called most sway wan cuz he was somehow forced to demo how to roll on the mud, and he had no choice bt to play afterwards. This game is actually to carry a person to the other side of a wheel through the wheel hole, with the support of teammates. Kayaking was funnn!! Sadly we only get to kayak for tt one or two hrs i think.
Third day is bad! Awful. When we proceed to the first station of the day after breakfast, birds flying off, ants crawling fast, wind blowing tight, dark clouds gathering, and it rained l8r, until 2 pm!! So we miss a lot of things. In the afternoon, we only managed to play challenged pole and ____ - Idk wad it's called, bt for this only one pair get to play. So ntg much to say. Campfire was fun, except maybe when our grp is performing, which sort of screwed a little cuz it dint follow as planned.
In any case, no matter which part of the camp is the most memorable one - whether it is the 1st time we met Joshua and he started teaching us "江王爷" where we've to clap with our hands on our head when he shouted the three words, or the times when we first started creating our grp cheer which contains five "hallelujah", or when we learn "Peace by the river" and Derrick hardly managed to follow the steps, or the time when Joshua wasted our 30 mins of campfire prep time and Justin and Simone dk wad to do abt it, or when we cheated when we played tangle baby that screw things up even after redoing, or when we literally PISSED Samantha off cuz we cheer when she said the camp would be ending in 23 hrs, or when we learn how to dance "洗刷刷" and wanted to dance it over and over again, or the performance where our plan dint work bt still somehow improvise thru, or Joshua who crap a lot and disturb our grp discussion bt still being very serious during the debrief and saying we've done a gd job in the campfire performance despite our awfulness - it doesnt matter, for I enjoyed the camp, experienced many new things, and learned a lot!
