Friday, 24 October 2008 9:06 pm
I'm so happy that you people read my posts!
Why would I think that you guys don't read my posts?
Well,
when I just created a blog,
I am usually lazy to read my friends' posts cos they are usually super duper long.
Then, I started to read them and really found them interesting.
And now, I'm trying my best to type super long posts.
Not to test or torture you all but just to make my posts more interesting?
How do I know?
You guys ask me to POST more!
Of Course this means that you want to read more right?
Or maybe I mistook it ...
Before you continue reading the rest of the post there are some things to note when you are reading.
If not, you will not understand anything.
'#'
This means it will affect the later part of the post.So you better read that part and not skip it.
'*'
This means there is a reason to it and will be revealed at the end of the post.Zin

Esabel!Kim
Kimberlyn!Oh Well,
Here's the not-so-long-awaited PART 2 !
--Part 2 of CAMP!--
I opened my eyes at 4+AM but then I saw no one awake.
So, I went back to sleep with only a sleeping bag between me and the cold, hard floor.
I'm not exaggerating.
It is really hard and cold!
I woke up at 6.00AM as I was not tired anymore and also because I saw Zinn awake.
[
At least have company... ]#Zinn then told me that she could not sleep well the night before and that she kept waking up every hour.
Charmaine had moved up to sleep on the bed.
How you might ask, we pushed the beds next to each other.
Kim, was then sleeping on my right while Bel was on my left.
Zin and I moved near to the door and folded our sleeping bags.
#She put hers down on the floor first and then my sleeping bag on top of it.
Both of us just sat there and looked around in the dark, looked at handphone, opened the door once in awhile, then at 6.30AM, wake-up alarms rang and we switched on the lights to make sure to wake up EVERYONE.
All of us then took turns to get ready for the big day ahead and went downstairs to the hall.
Since we were early,
we went to take a stroll around.
Its a good thing we were near the gate between the chalet and the beach.
Boy, was the beach DIRTY!
[I have pictures of the litter for post-use but then, I can't seem to upload it up.]
After some time, we went back.
We then had breakfast.
[A hot dog with a bun.]
After breakfast,
We had a short talk before we had QT.
And by QT, I mean [Q]uiet [T]ime.
Zin, Bel, Kim and I went back to the beach again, along with the rest and sat on a big rock.
Then, we started praying.
Well, not for Kim as she is not christian.
A few mintues later, we went back to the chalet.
We then had indoor games!
We had to complete diffrent types of games in less than 2 hours.
[I forgot the exact time but I don't have to be THAT specific right?]
We had to complete:
A treasure hunt Make love letters to the lovely camp comittee Untie knots on a string Blow and carry a balloon from one end to the other end Make shapes using a string while blind-folded and under the hot sun in the humid weatherEtc.
Then, it was lunch time!
Yummy spaghetti !
After finishing our spaghetti and washing our utensils, plates and cups, we had a jelly cup each.
But before Kim and I ate it, we went up the stairs to our room to put away our untensils.
Kim started packing the sleeping bags and saw that there were white little bugs crawling on Zinnia's.[the bugs looked a bit like ants]
I screamed and jumped onto the bed.
We then informed the camp comittee.
We took out our sleeping bags and kept flapping them to make them drop off.
[well, not me. HEY, I'm scared!]
Xiao Min stepped them and the ones in the room too.
[OF COS WITH SHOES.. don't be silly.. stepping on them bare-footed..]
After seeing that there were no more bugs, we put our sleeping bags back in.
[Silly much?]
Then, a talk.
Erm, kinda boring but quite hmm... how to put it .. useful?
[can't seem to think of that adjective]
We then had wet games again!
Peace and Fantastic 4 played against each other.
First, Scissors-paper-stone.
Materials:
2 Umbrellas [Best is, portable ones] 2 Cups 2 buckets of water that is bigger than the cup used A tableArangement:
2 Groups of people [3 or more in each] Groups stand in a line and face each other with the table between them On the table, put a bucket for each group, and a cup inside it.Put the umbrella beside each bucketInstructions:
The one in front of the line in each group will play scissors-paper-stone and the loser has to open his/her umbrella quickly before the winner picks up the cup from the bucket and splashes it at the group.Take turns to do thisThen,
we went to the basketball court and played another game.
We had to line up at one side of the court and shout 'mai tu liao' [hokkien] while running to the other end and continue shouting while unlocking the banana on the chair.
If the combination was wrong,
We had to run back and the next person goes.
If we run out of breath when unlocking,
we had to run back.
After that, we played captain's ball.
What's wrong with that?
Well, the "ball" is a bar of super slippery soap!
Being on the chair is not fun.
standing there..
watching the other team score points..
[Boring, don't cha think?]
Suddenly, groups whatever and nameless came to the court after their game with water and they poured it all on Wan Zhen.
[Aww.. poor thing..]
They said that it was Sheryl's idea.
Wan Zhen was determined to get her revenge.
Then, we played volley-ball using trash bags and water balloons.
[Don't wish to elaborate about it]
When clearing up the mess we made, we had a water balloon filled with soapy water.
Wan Zhen took it and ... SPLASH! A WET SHERYL!
xD
We then had free time.
Xiao Min, Kim, Zinn, Bel, Char and I went to the indoor playground and played with soft balls.
[Kiddy? So what?]
Not long after, Michelle and Jia Wei also joined in the fun.
No sooner had they joined in, Jason and Zi Wen came along.
I was walking about the playground with a purple elephant couch thingy in my hands.
[Silly, no?]
After awhile,
we went back to the chalet for the barbecue [which was also our dinner].
The guys took quite a long time trying to light the fire.
[actually, I wanted to try fanning it as well but then I might have been the only GIRL doing it]
While waiting,
we played Taboo again.
I only answered 2.
[looks like I'm just not good at this..]
den started blowing balloons.
I actually blew them without hurting my cheeks!
First time ya know!?
Grabbed a marker and started drawing on them.
After quite a loooong while,
we had our dinner!
Yummy bbq food!
After that,
more games!
[At basketball court]
Firstly, "Action Bedek".
Then, running around the circle we formed.
Abigail, Char's sis, put the bottle behind me and I stood up, grabbed it, and gave chase immediately.
#[not wearing my slippers.]
[I had to, if I want to sit down again...]
When chasing, I fell down and skinned my knees.
[Aww.. memories of P2 coming back...]
{My skin is still trying to cover it up now still}
I DID NOT CRY ON PURPOSE!
The tears roll down my cheeks instantly.
I did not feel like crying at all.
I could feel eyes staring at me.
Mostly concern but some, a little hint of laughter.
I shut my eyes and shouted at myself, inside: WHY ARE YOU CRYING!? YOU WEAKLING!YOU ALWAYS CRY! UNHAPPY/UPSET? CRY! STOP YOUR STINKIN' WATER WORKS AND GET UP!
[Hard to believe? Well, its true okay?]
I stood up with my knees a bit bent as there was a stinging pain.
Wan Zhen then brought me back to the chalet.
[Limped all the way there.]
Walked on the soil without my shoes..
T-T
Went into the toilet and rinsed the wound.
While the rest of them continued the games,
I just sat on a chair, blowing balloons, drawing on them and chatting wib Sheryl.
[hais... I think sec life will be scary lehs ...]
Then, all of us had ice cream while wathing telly.
Not long after the youths had left,[ not including camp comittee ]
the white little bugs I mentioned earlier,
they were termites!
And there was a whole COLONY OF THEM IN THE ROOM WE SLEPT IN!
*high-pitched screams of horror and fear*
Everyone took their stuff and evacuated from the room.
They then started emptying the bags and whatever, checked and double checked that there were no termites.
[I did not help as, again, I WAS SCARED! And also, my knees were killing me!]
The only thing I did was grab my stuff down.
[HELLO! I'm talking about Chua Michelle here. The timid big crybaby!]
{I ADMIT! I'M PATHETIC! Now, What do ya wanna do about it? Change me? It'll take more than a life time to do that...}
After this, we bathed and slept in the camp comittee's room.
While the camp comittee slept in the hall.
[I feel so sorry... I owe ya guys BIG-TIME !]
The next day is to be continued the next time.
Woah ....
I'm way behind my events.
I hab 4 more to post and 2 more stuff coming up the coming week!
EEK!
Gotta go rest now.
I don't think I'm going ut 2moro.
Maybe I'll spend the whole day blogging.
*deep in thought*
