dear all, i m back from Students Leaders Camp!! and i fucking love it yahoooo!!! :p
ahhaha, at first went there dun have the feeling..coz we got some jc outreach event in the morning in school..so when we all reach e east coast chalet, all of us feeling quite shagged out..but i was quite lucky, coz my group Chen Shui Bian was very onz..and ya know about camps, normally how much u enjoy it will depend on how fun-loving yr group is..haha
it was great too..to mingle with people from different faculties, diff organizations and groups..learnt a lot from this camp realli..at first tot it wud be those kinda serious camp, but in the end it was a damn relak and shiok camp haha..
the Beach!!! i fucking love it! the weather was perfect, the sun was bright and it was time for a good tan! haha..love the beach games..the water..the waves..i always feel very wild when i m at the beach haha..
another funny and interesting 1st experience during the camp..instead of the usual Secret Pal thingy of camps, they had this Speed Dating thingy..and SDU actually came in with a lot of sponsorship..hwah..they have a lot of money to be milked, and i m thinking of bringing them in for next year's Arts Camp haha..anyway back to the interesting part..so each person is given a form..and each girl is sitted at the beach at night, with the waves cruising and the stars twinkling nicely in a very relaxing atmosphere..basically each guy will talk with 10 different girls vice-versa..and each conversation will last bout 10 min..haha..quite funny lah..then say if ya interested in getting to know this person more, u will tick his or her name..if the other person also ticked yr name, so u have a match, then u will get the other person's contact no and vice-versa
it got a bit tiring in the end..talk and talk and talk until no voice ah haha..then it was funny coz my group had sining and swee giang..so we all decide to go for a toilet break in the middle of the speed dating thingy haha..
hahaha then each group had to perform a skit during the 2nd night..thats when u see all the funny stuff and people coming out..gay transsexual acts etc etc, ya know..the usual stuff haha..our group Ah Bian won! actually we won almost everything haha..best skit, best race, 2nd best beach games, and overall best group! haha..damn fun lah..
for the finale event, we had to build this raft and sail it out to the waters, u-turn, and come back to the shores asap..haha damn shiok ah..me, ken and lynette were the ones on the raft, and we gotta keep kicking and paddling..anyway the fun part was when u u-turn back, all the campers wud be throwing water-bombs at u and yr raft, and IT WAS A LOT OF BOMBS!!! some people are quite accurate..keep throwing in our faces hahaha..NOW I KNOW HOW D-DAY FELT LIKE FOR THE ALLIED SOLDIERS WHEN THEY LANDED ON THE BEACHES OF NORMANDY AHHAHA!! it was like raining water bombs..felt like going to war lydat..but it was great fun
guess i still havent lost my spirit for camps woohaha..made a lot of new frenz from the other fac clubs and nussu people..and of coz nussu PRU (public-relations-unit)..i think they have a real fun group of people..and i like their president and vp..
i used to have this bias view of nussu and their exco, just like a lot of other nus sudents i m sure..but after going thru this camp, i realize that these people are just like u and me..they are also normal crappy fun-loving people... who do a lot of work behind the scenes, just that nobody sees it and very few people appreciate the work they do..there was this forum on the last dae of camp where everyone was sharing opinions and info and i tot it was a great sharing session..
guess its easy to just complain bout other people when u dunch know what they have been doing behind the scenes..its natural for people in a way..
really enjoyed myself during the camp! was a great experience and learnt a lot, as well as made a lot of good contacts..i got a wider picture or a better macro-view of nus stuff and e other fac clubs..of course! not forgetting the sun, the beach, the waves, the babes, the bbq, the games...i needed a good break during this holidaes, and i think SLC gave me a refreshing time haha..
2 issues are bothering me though..2 things which i feel i eventually will need to sort out..cramped inside me but these are sensitive issues which i cant write here..Or am i thinking too much? hmm..
prob going for a run later to clear things in my mind..i m getting darker haha
