haven't updated in a week. so here i am. gonna be a long one.

back from leadership camp!

i love my grp 3, we pwn! you guys really rock! <333 shaun sheng yashu weiwei! as well as josh and kevin our wonderful group facilitators =)

day 1
loaded up super heavy packs and walked from sa to labrador adventure centre. bball [grp 3 pwned] during which everyone got blisters then canned food lunch, rock climbing and fitness odyssey. 380 crunches, 420 pushups [pwn!], 11mins 40s endurance bridging, 600 squats [pwn again!], 120 jumping jacks [after collusion with grp 2 cos we were all too tired]! killer squats! ask sheng to show you his perfect squats! hahaha! then night trek at 9pm, carrying 4 1.5 litre bottles of water on our backs together with the groundsheets and ponchos, singing jay chou songs as we climbed up telok blangah hill and down again, then up mt faber [super nice place!] for the treasure hunt [grp 3 pwns yet again with 15 out of 24 clues solved!]. even though we were all so damn tired. my grp just suddenly went mad. chionged like hell. up and down all those steps to find the last clue.

day 2
chloe and i went nuts at some point. my fav hei se mao yi partner! our unofficial camp song. haha. she declaring that she was gonna pour away all the water in her heavy bottles and i encouraging her to pour some more. singing loudly like no one's business. talking and complaining and goading passing cars ["come get me lah!" "knock me down! knock me down!"]. shaun wanting to stab people. sheng and his crap. me carrying on conversations with myself. must be all the walking making us high. back down mt faber and off to labrador park where we had our solo night walk and missing person scenario plus nap. stupid josh and his oscar winning act. rahhh. had some kinda supper/breakfast with the points we'd earned in the games. so my grp had the biggest breakfast. we also had the can of cat food. courtesy of evil josh again who insisted that it was really good. tuna and chicken indeed. first time shaun and i ate cat food. haha. not too bad. i wanna try dog biscuits cos they smell nice. and shaun says they're tasty. haha. then nap again before setting off to kent ridge park where we had the very exciting canopy walk and blindman's walk [die josh and his "sandstorms"!] finally got back to labrador adventure centre at 12. total of 18km in 15hrs.

canned food lunch yet again. but this time with canned peaches, ahh heavenly. and a bath. stupid water carrying game which served zero purpose. nap. individual speech-writing time which turned into crap talking session. then bbq with punch satay stingray kebabs chicken chops. afterwards, campfire with hilarious group skits, personal speeches and singing competition [qing fei de yi! with josh on guitar, sheng and weiwei waving like trees at the back, and me yashu shaun singing/laughing in front]. rope walk, police and thieves game [grp 3 pwns once more with 3 gems!], peer evaluation and nap before being woken up for emergency drill. then searched a muddy field for 16 saga seeds while blindfolded and managed to find 4. afterwards, "1 night stand" for endurance, standing in a hoop in the middle of the courtyard for 3 hours before interview at 6. no sitting no squatting no lying down no talking nothing. damn cold.

day 3
by morning everyone was sitting around crapping or sleeping on the floor. and most were still waiting for interview. waited around with the others after my interview until 8+, then managed less than an hour's worth of sleep on my bunk before breakfast. whoo nutella. cleaned the place before leaving and walked back to sa singing jay chou songs/pri sch choir songs. haha. had debrief, photo taking, farewell pumping ceremony [!!! like we didn't get enough pumping throughout the camp hahaha], and appointment ceremony.

congrats to canoeing exco 05/06!

GLOATS] by bus for pepper lunch and to watch shaun buy stuff for his shanghai trip. all the amusing books in kino. will you die if you consume faeces? what the?! and the cds at hmv. after shaun and sheng left, nat and i walked heeren to find his class present. passed yashu and chloe their jerseys as well. then dinner at 6 with my og! shiying charlene joa xiaoxin marcel justin! nice to see them all again. but only managed to eat at 930 cos everyone was super late. had steamboat at marina bay. stuffing our faces. walking damn far with joa to buy bottled drinks. only got home at 1130. whoo. but damn fun.
