I AM BACK !!!

yeah !! i am finally back from the pulau ubin !! A total of 5 days spent there on that island... Came back with alot of mosquito bites and sun burn and muscle ache all over the body..... slept for 1 whole day when i reached home and woke up at 6pm on the nxt day... haha

The activities were fun but tiring. But, i want to tell those who chose not to go, its your lost that you gave up the chance. Cause, its really FUN !!!
we had activities like kayaking, trekking, cooking our own food, high element, trust jump, building raft and so on... All of them were simply so fun !!! hehe
There were so many activites each day so i wont mention all, i will mention the activities that have deep memories on me.



First is the kayaking, first day reach the island they want to do kayaking, so shocked !! but no choice la... my heart is like 即期待又怕受伤害
cause, i dont know how to swim and dont know how to kayak... And the first thing they want us to try after teaching how to kayak is to capsize !! i was so scared !! i almost fainted ... >.<" i paired with one girl who knew how to kayak, lucky.
The first time i capsize (on purpose) my shoe stucked in the kayak and i almost couldnt get out, i thought i die le.. lucky i pull out my leg in time without the shoe if not i really die le!!
secondy day still kayak, sianz.. i look at how far i have to capsize, my jaw dropped onto the floor... reached liao still accidentally capsize..[>.<] which is after he teach how to save other ppl and yrself when capsize in deep sea.. so it became a practical.. eager to practise ?? And i want say sorry to justin as i made him worked so hard to get me back on the kayak as i got no strength left.

Second, we are going to stay in the forest !! actually this is nothing. But one accident happened on the way that made it memorable. The whole grp of 32 of us were carrying the stupid heavy bag into the forest, at first i like cannot take it so i walk slowly and thus have a gap with the people in front. Its like 7-10 people in front and 20+ ppl behind me then got gap between me and the front ppl. walk until halfway, i hear some cracking sound, sounded like tree falling, so i stopped as i didnt dare to walk. In split seconds, ONE BIG TREE FELL IN FRONT OF ME !! if i walk few steps ahead, i would have been aimed by the tree. Now, i am the life saviour of gina, guo xiong and so on... The idiot guo xiong say is the tree want to make friend with me. SO BAD !! x.X

Third, land navigation. we walk 4-6 hrs altogther with a bagpack weigh 10+kg(estimate) our grp walk with another grp. They like walk so slow la, in the end, the instructor say if have gap again have to stop for 2min everytime. Lucky i go in front, then managed to stay in front. hahaha we stopped like 6 times ?? i dont know. cause stop too many times le, lost count. The happy thing is, we reached 1+ hr earlier than we estimate despite so many stops as we nvr rest throughout.

fourth, sea navigation. Before setting out, we had to do another capsize drill to practise. i pair with hakesh and after the drill, we paddle very hard back to the shore but the stupid wave keep pushing us back and we like getting further and further away. In the end,i paired up with nick and we had to kayak around the pulau ubin to reach our intial campsite. It took all of us almost 7hrs for the whole journey. The best part is we navigated back without compass but only a map. Cool right ?? i think so too!!!
i want to tell nick:
i am sorry as i made you paddle so hard !! and, you are really good !!

Fifth, rafting. we build indivdual raft with another grp but in the end as their raft cant even pass the lifting test. Lift up only all the floating barrels dropped and only our raft can work. In the end, we made it a point that we rotate the grp to raft so that everyone gets a chance to do it. Our grp went first cause we wanted to test it. But, when out raft went in the water, the barrels popped up. luckily we managed to keep it down. then 1 barrel popped up at the back. at first gina went to sit on it but couldnt keep it down, so i went instead. But, the barrel from pop up abit to totally pop up straight when i sat on it. luckily i held tight, then nvr fall down and in the end i hugged the barrel like a kola bear. The whole trip of rafting didnt even last for 2mins and we had to turn back as there were 2grps. overall, it was fun hugging the barrel!! haha=)

Last is the high element and the trust fall. The thing i want to say is i am really really very grateful to my grp mates for their encouragment though i still didnt make it in the end.. i tried and tried many times for the trust jump and still failed. Maybe i didnt trust them so much ?? or due to my inner fear ?? i have no answer. i tried like 6 times still cant. i stopped trying though they still want me to. cause, i didnt want them to be too tired. And for the high element, i want to thank syed for giving me courage to even try. i tried 2 times, failed. couldnt even made it past the ladder. felt so sad and stupid. saw everyone climbed up and walked past rope and i couldnt even make it pass the ladder. So sad.
But thanks guo xiong, for initating to be the rope holder... haha

Despite all these, this camp will be of the best camp i attended due to the encouragement and all that i received during the camp and because of the friends i made during the camp like reuben, haikal, justin, mustaqim, hakesh, amanda and so on.

THANK YOU EVERYONE !!
