Monday, May 29, 2006,5:47 PMA rather WHINEY ENTRY.
SKIP IT if you cannot stand ppl who complain too much.
ahhh. it had been a tough week. the day right after one star kayaking, we were supposed to go for camp at pulau ubin. it would have been fun if i had not been so exhausted from the kayaking course.
looking good, healthy and ready for camp ( but not for long... = /)
the camp was actually quite slack. not as tough as OBS.
we were ferried to pulau ubin from marina country club resort. the journey was about half an hour.
when we were there, we were introduced to our instructors and briefed on what to do.
the tent was really easy to pitch. all we had to do was to connect a few poles here and there and tadaaa..a tent! its not like the obs one where we have to hammer nails down into the sand. =))
kityeng, yingchern, samantha, val and i shared a tent.
75 was in group 9 and we named ourselves AVIS SIVA . hahaa.
we did a number of activities like rafting and the team challenge pyramid which involves the overcoming of many tough obstacles on high grounds.
for rafting, we built a raft which was rather flimsy.
i was asked to go up the raft because ive got kayaking bkgrd and noe how to paddle -.- in fear of losing my specs when the raft capsized, i passed my specs to sy.
ahh.. as expected, the raft gave way and we capsized twice. then i found out tt sy has accidentally dropped my specs into the water. we tried searching for it but to no avail.
='( my poor lil red colour specs. its still stranded somewhere in the lagoon...
on the last day, we had team pyramid challenge. our team ( chri val me terry) were rather fast. we encouraged each other and managed to pass all obstacles and reached the top. yea! gd job ppl!! =)
ohh. the food given at the camp was all very nice. =)) i esp love the hot milo! yum!
