Be prepared for a long long long post! :D

This update will be on from 20th Dec to 23rd Dec! :D

23rd Dec 2010, Thursday.
Woke up by xintao. She told me, wake up, 7.15 already. 7.20 need to report. I opened my eyes, and i said. Now what time? she said, 7.15! My mind was blank, and i hit my head back on my sleeping bag, then after struggling on my mind, my head lifted again and say, now what time? she said, 7.17. We need to report at 7.20! I stared at her awhile, now 7.17, we need report what time? 7.20. AHHHHHHHHHHH, and i jumped out of my sleeping bag! xD alot others was still sleeping, shook them awake, went to change and brush teeth wash face! Report at the atrium, our OIC and facils still pigging! xD Had breakfast, waited awhile, given instruction for the sec one registration. Some parts of the camp, helped to moved the tables and chairs, i forgotten when. slot it in whenever you want la! xD Went hall, i was incharge of interacting with 1E4, together with qiaobin. And well, i'm the facil for 1E4 during the sec one orientation, so its good that i can make friends with them earlier! :D From what i survey-ed, they all feel shy and nervous :P But i know the sec one orientation gonna be fun! :D The hall was very cold, cause they on air-con. And the Co-Form and form teacher was Miss Shahana and Mrs Lim, Maria Lim. LALA, ended and had debrief. Opened up all the doors cause it was freezing. Some got this helium balloon from the guzheng members, and mingkang was annoyed by the balloon when he gave his debrief. xD Was feeling super sleepy. Mass mass mass debrief for HLC @ the AVA. Best camper male and female were anthony and eunice, WOHOOOOOO! :D:D The video by the facils were awesomely - funny.! xD Break camp.

Thanks and also because of ZiYang, i'm feeling much better now. He kajiao me, say someone beside me also have boyfriend. LOLS. hide under the table at the atrium there. Many people walked pass, and KPO like what happened. Thanks kuku for giving me some time alone, and also comfort me. Felt much better, and i told myself, this is the last time i'm gonna cry like that! Saw Xavier Peacock's message, really touched ley! HAHAS, tears almost wanted to come back again, but hold it back :P Eyes was small enough already, after crying even smaller! xD went point to eat with the girls, including jerin and zikang. Miss MAC! xD Bought icecream, it definately cheers me up. Borrowed kuku money buy sweets, then walked to bus stop take 88 home.

Overslept on bus, pro me. BAG super heavy, so lazy walk back :P Took another bus even though its only one stop. xD
Reached home, immediately fell to bed.

22nd Dec 2010, Wednesday.
It's the 3rd day of camp. Woke up gather at courtyard, move to parade square. Didn't really do PT, did some interactions with buddy. My buddy was amantha :D After that played fire,
hunter, earthquake, ice age, and tornado! xD Went atrium, did the human table with XinTao, KaiLin and Eunice. We couldn't hold all the way, but we tried our best right! :D Both the facils and the guys did it! :D (claps!) Went up to AVA, legs still feeling very soft after the human table. It was stacking onto the people you're lying on. It takes alot of trust, and confidence on the person you're lying on. And alot of willpower! :P Given time to rehearse on our performance. Practiced at the little stage at courtyard. YiSin helped us pick flower for ziyang, cause he's acting as the tree :P Went hall, played the play fold square. We all were blind fold, a string is thrown around us, and we have to have a leader and lead us to form the square. But the leader is blind folded also, so it's about communication and teamwork. Only succeeded after a few tries, our leader was fathul :)
took our stuffs, and went atrium gather. Briefing, and left group by group for our amazing race! :D

Bused 101 to hougang mall, and took MRT to little india. We had 9 (*i think) tasks to complete. And was given $5 as our budget. Went around places, interacted with alot indians, asking for directions. Also took picture in the bus, it was part of the task too! :P Kept sneezing, sorry no offence¬¬ Cause got sensitive nose! Found temple, ate roti prata, and drank the 'pull tea'. Did the temporary tatto on my hand, bought the flowers and hang it on kennedy, ziyang then jun ren. Last station was the singapore's only 24th hour shoppning mall. It was somewhere near farrer park. We were out of time so we walked very quickly there, then sort of ran back. Cause our facils looks very stress. Our goals were not to get first, but to complete the game. Reached back little india, played chirates, me and amantha did the actions. First was AstroBoy, second was Hello Kitty, group photo, HURRAY! :D although we were last, but we enjoyed ourselves ! :D MRT-ed and bused back school :)


WE'E ONE PIECE, AND OUR FACIL IS YISIN! WE'RE AWESOME PEOPLE THAT ROCKS! :D


Reached atrium, was called to stand inside a small box, and do our cheer. WeiQing was talking to yisin's walkie talkie, but he refuse to tell us where is he. And somehow he can see us but we can't see him :P After we did our cheer, he suddenly went missing! Like suddenly no reply from the walkie talkie. Our box was very squeezy, stood there quite awhile, before we were told by derrick to go to the parade square gather for debrief with the other groups :P It was a short debrief, well, everyone agreed that Eunice really growed through this camp! :D applauseeeeeeee :) Was using Calvin'twin's phone to change my status, but somehow the dumbdumb save changes button cannot press! :( Went back to our bunk, changed back ino our home clothes. Had dinner. After that given time to rehearse for our night fever. :)

Disco fever, everyone's performance was really AWESOME! First 2 groups were so hilarious, that made me lost abit of confidence. Abit like anti-climate cause other groups performance all so funny, the ours abit sooo sadds :P Anyways, we used the song wedding dress, had a script. ZiYang was the narrator befoe the story started and changed into a tree. Basically the storyline was the same as the real mv. :P junren was the sad one, kennedy and me happy ending. Was forcing myself not to laugh so much! Somemore jiaxin was infront of me watching! xD My chinese dance senior which i respect alot! :P We were the 3rd group to perform. LALALA, applauseeeeeee. After that weiqing gave us sort of a 'talk', which brought out most of our emotions. It's a great challenge to show and to hide your emotions. Somehow i couldn't find my tears to cry, it all probably dried up yesterday! :P Hugged togetherrr. Said thank you, did the cards and stuffs. The 3 traditions, played songs, videos. After that we party-ed till 2 plus. Slowly slowly, alot went back to their bunk to sleep. Was freezing cold inside the ava, so i went out to walkwalk. Went canteen, saw aaron, lionel, mingkang and yipeng. Aaron was eating the leftover curry chicken from dinner :P I was feelign extremely hungry, so took one to eat too. Luckily it was not spoilt yet, but just super cold! :P Oh ya, joke! I forgotten to bring toothbrush. And aaron help me buy during the first day before camp, hahas, thanks! :D After that went back girls bunk, moved our sleeping bag over with few girls to the AVA room, got aircon. They were watching the something titans. I watched before already, and i don't want to watch, cause it bring backs memories :( It's about like a soccer game, then moral of story is teamwork. Went into AVA, hide inside my sleeping bag, super tired, so very fast fell asleep already. And it was 5 plus already! :P

21st Dec 2010, Tuesday.
Woke by the kuku Hot Issue ringtone. Brought a smile to my face. Reminded me of the dance during XinYuan, memories! :D Brushed teeth, face wash, fall in @ the Courtyard. Moved to basketball court, did pushup, one by one. Shout name, and say number. I was the last, so i had to hold till everyone finished! And inbetween if got number wrong, restart! :P Also did squats, 50 i think! :O Reminded me of last year's PT, which was much more intensive. Ran around school 5 rounds, and while running still must keep thinking of cheers and shout together, but fun! xD After Followed by breakfast. Then, had the high achievers talk @ AVA all the way till lunch. It was very enriching though. Learnt alot alot of things, like stretching myself to the maximum, stepping out of your comfort zone, and public speaking :D Lunch, the meals were all spicy :( I wonder why¬¬ After that was water parade, went field, everyone drank at least 500ml :D Played a very violent game at the field. We have to disperse and gather according to ChunFai (campcom.) and then when we gather, have to create an interlock between all our group members, and not let the facils break us apart. We came up with all sorts of ideas, and there was once we always did it! Everyone one group is broken apart, we'll do forfiets as one whole campers. Did squats. AFter that we had a challenge, all the campers suppose to stay together and not let the facil break us. We were close to the target, but still, broke away! Good effort though everyone! :D Our arms were squeezed by each other till the veins very pain! xD all the girls below 50kg was inside the circle, and all the others was inside. Which means i was outside la! With Xintao and amantha (the only 3 girls!) amantha was not above 50kg of course, but she insisted on being ouside. xD Beside me was kennedy, he say his arm very pain, cause my arm like so hard. Of course pain la! :P But my arm not hard, got meat want xD Alot attempts, alot of us wanted to try again, cause we didn't achieve our goals. In the end, the facils did one time, and got 2 volunteers from each group to pull them apart. We manage to pull them apart! :D Brandon the pervert! :P Debrief, moved up to AVA. Had a talk by WeiQing, told us about setting your goals. He always make talks until emoemo, but very goods! Always had us thinking alot. Setting your goals, and the journey, people may pull you down. but in the end, you'll still reach your goal, after overcoming all your obstacles (kennedy and aaron! xD) After that was dinnerrrrr! :D Then, went hall and played the spider web game. aLl the group members have to walk pass this spider web squares 5 x 5 without touching the string. Our group did it in 10 secs, the fastest group was 7 secs (i think!) :P
Followed by the night adventure :) Partnered with ShiHui. Was blinded folded first, she gave me instructions and led me around the school, passing through obstacles. After that was my turn.

Debrief-ed, then bathed. Wanted to have another one piece meeting. But kennedy was too tired and he went to bed le. So discussed the script with amantha, callie and eunice :) BED. Was too tired to talk anymore, nights.

20th Dec 2010, Monday.

Woke up like super early for HLC camp. But its a happy morning, you know why? :D Cause i'm not going to work! I'm going for a funnnnnn CAMP! :D Bused to school, meet in hall, i was slightly late. Introduced, split into groups. Did group planning :D Same group as Amantha, Kennedy, Fathul, ZiYang, Eunice, Callie, YongSheng and Jun Ren. Our wonderful facil is YiSin! :D OIC is ShiYing :) Our group is called One Piece! Did a group flag and came up with some values for our group. One of our values is punctuality, so we had to report 5 mins earlier than everyone, nevermind, good start! :D

After that went to our bunk to put our humongous bags, i've got 4 bags! xD Basically we only split into 2 classrooms, each at one end, girls and boys. Cause we were a small group of campers around 40+ people :P Went back hall, played some ice breaking games. Like ouch, but yisin was nice to us, we changed to a name game, which we had to say our name, and a adjective to describe it, and had to remember everyone's. Mine was easy, Lynette Dance :D After that also played 'UMIMIU', it was just creating a big circle, and going around like choochoo trains and shake hand with everyone, saying like hi, i'm lynette! :D After that back to our groups. Played the word game, our group words most difficult. We had a list of around 12 words, and have to pass from the first to the last person. Other group words were all like, shiying, patrickstar, blablah. Ours is like, osmosis, liver, enzymes, deforestation. All those chimchim science term all come out! :P And the game ended at me, one more person to complete! Debrief, i learnt teamwork, communication and bonding. I think thats the key in almost all the games in this camp :P I cried during debrief, cause mummy suddenly called me and started complaining to me about Daddy. Like always, and i really couldn't stand it. Cause i wanted to say byebye, and faster go back to the debrief, cause i was very rude to suddenly pick up a call and walk away during debrief. But she don't let me byebye. Actually i still can hold back my tears, but one piece saw my eyes watery, keep asking me don't cry don't cry, ended up i cried. xD Cause the more people ask me don't cry, the more i'll cry! :P Thanks to shermin, who gave me a hug and brought me to toilet wash up and relax :) Lunch, followed by lecture by richginia. The 7 important values andd 5 model of leadership. :D Challenging the Process. Inspired a Shared Vision. Enabled Others to Act. Encouraging the Heart. Model the Way. These 5 are somethings which leadership always revolves around! :D

The aircon made me felt super cold and frozen in the AVA room. Did planning for the disco fever on the last night. Decided to do the song wedding dress, girls taughts by me, guys taught my junren :D It's gonna be awesome :) And dinner :D Our flags got confiscated 2 times due to our careless-ness! Shall hug it even to sleep! :P

Followed by night game :D Had to complete around 6 stations. Roughly it was like, got this colgate toothpaste game, had to pass the toothpaste from one person to another till the last person through a body part. Like we have to lucky draw what we get. Luckily most of us, including me, got arms :D Another game was to pass the soap. Passing the dry soap with right hand was easy, but passing the wet soap with left hand was difficult. Especially for me with clumsy hands! :P Oh ya, our cheer was awesome.

JUN REN: I SAY ONE YOU SAY PIECE.
ONE.
US : PIECE.
JUNREN : ONE.
US : PIECE.
NA NA NA NA , NA NA NA NA (with the elmo's world melody).
*While doing that, we're suppose to shake our head, our whole body like kukus! :D* (my idea!)
US : ONE (clapclap, clap clap)
PIECE (clapclap, clapclap)
ONE (clapclap, clap clap)
PIECE (clapclap, clap clap)
OOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, (run together, and stack our hands)
ONE PIECE! :D

Another one of the game, one of our partner, me (was blindfolded) and partner was amantha. She had to guide me along this track, only can say 'GLUE' and finish the maze :P We were the only group that didn't spill any water along it! AWESOME!" :D One station we went was HARDCORE. NO NGs, something like PT. So if one station fails, have to restart again. Did buddha claps, 10 x like few days. And passed the marbles to 4 people through chopsticks. And crunches. The guys did pushups, 2 M jumps :D Next station, had to carry move a bucket of water from one spot to another with the cloth. We were smart, we used the cloth, to carry the bucket and brought it all the way to the other end and pour! :D Super fast, other groups still like soak the cloth in, and run to the other end, and squueze the water out! :P Last station, group members suppose to carry one container of water, and fill a half bottle. they said, need one volunteer, so i just volunteered. xD In the end, i'm suppose to lie on the other end, at the parade square, put the bottle on my stomach, and they're suppose to tie the container on their head, and slowly walk towards me and pour into my container. Super ticklish when the water didn't pour inside and hit until my stomach! xD I was drenched from stomach to toe. After that wanted to spoil kennedy's spiky hair, but he went to push the container away and it aimed on my head. I'm drenched, from head to toe! xD Debriefed.

Given time to bathed, and lights out at 1030. (maybe abit later:P) There was still some time before lights out, so meet once piece and practiced our performance on disco fever outside the principal's office window'mirror. Alot of audience! xD ran back to our rooms just in time for 1030 :P couldn't sleep, used xintao's phone to type rubbish cause my phone was charging at the other side. then accidentaly went to sent the message. Cause i don't know how use blackberry, i thought thats like, back button instead of enter. :X But it was xintao's number. After that he sent me a very long message. well, i guessed its over, it means Goodbye from my point of view.

Forever, its just ending. I'm not exactly angry, just sadddddddd. Kept crying like shit under the sleeping bag. Thanks to huixin and xintao who cheered me up. Went to the toilet 2 times, spotted by facils and they sort of lectured us abit. But they have no idea whats going on :X Well, i guess i need time to just let go. Shall not say much on blog too. :) Shall just enjoy myself during this camp :D
