hello ! Ellysa here .
Class camp is super awesome !
we bonded very well and we felt like a FAMILY !
so , i'm gonna describe to you on what happened on the three fun days .
1st DAY :
Came to school as usual. Assemble , and off we go . Firstly , we went to the camp room to put our bags and only bring day pack and stuffs that we are needing for the first day and night sleeping at Changi Coast Camp place. While sitting on the bus , we got to know our facilitators nicknames; Pepsi , Lala and Bob. During the ride , i fell ASLEEP . then after 45 minutes , we reached . First , we put our belongings at one side , we went off for kayaking . At first we got a safety briefing on kayaking .
After the briefing , off we go . I partnered with Junnesha. We were having fun kayking . BUT, IT WAS REALLY TIRING !! after kayaking , we ate first . the lunch was awesome . we were starving at that time . after eating , we went to pitch our tents. we co-operate at that time . TEAMWORK . after pitching , we went to form into our groups and started making a raft . i was really glad that our raft turns out nice . but on water , its not nice at all . after rafting , we clear up the place .
After rafting , we were starving and its time for dinner ! but , we had to cook ourselves . OUTDOOR COOKING . i ate tom yum maggie with vegies and baked beans ! it was delicious ! after outdoor cooking and eating , we went to play the whiz challenge . we were in our teams . it was fun running around , doing tasks . WE were all seriously having fun. After the whiz challenge , we were all really tired . Finally, we wash up drank milo for supper and went off to sleep .
2ND DAY :
Woke up at 6.10 am . Change our clothing . NO BATHING . then we ate our breakfast . it was mee bihoon . NICE ! i seriously love it . then we walked up the bus and off we go to Sungai Buloh . when we reached there , we went to the theaterette .it was about the different types of species living in Sungai Buloh . It was very wonderful . it felt very nice as i felt that i had finally come close to nature . we walked around taking notes as we are going to do some worksheets later .
After walking around, we took a bus and went back to school. Then , we went to eat our lunch. Its quite okay . After eating , we went to Indoor Sports Hall. We had the safety briefing about the helmet and harness. We are going for the Challenge Rope Course(CRC). I was really scared at first even though I do not have a fear of heights . Firstly , my team did the first course . I did the low element first. I was nervous but i know i had the strength to overcome it and so i did. Then it started raining . We had to stop for awhile and rest. Fortunately , the raining stopped. Then we started our CRC again .
We did the Leap Of Faith . We had to climb up this pole . It was a bit shaky . After we climb up the pole and stand on the board which is on the pole , we will give the command , "Jumping!" and the people below who is belaying will say "Jump on!" and the climber will jump to a trapeze which is around 1 metre away from the pole. After 4 of my friends done it , its my turn . I was really nervous . I was scared of falling even though i know that my classmates are there to support me . Finally , i got up . I'm trying to gain balance from the shaking pole . I heard my classmates were cheering me on . I was very happy then . Then , i tried to build up my confidence and i jumped . I felt like i was flying when i was jumping. Then , i caught the trapeze . I felt relieved . Then i came down .
After that i did the other elements . There was the net which was really difficult . I had to climb up the log which was placed like a slope . But , i accomplished it .
After CRC , we ate a very weird dinner . The noodles really look good , BUT , it was horrible . It taste soury and it feels like the noodle has been expired(Sorry to say that!) . Then ,we had to discuss and rehearse our skits for the campfire . My group did a skit about a war . One of the country's soldier do not like team . He loves to go solo . During the 'war' , he was asked to pair up with somebody as team works better than a solo . But he was stubborn and just went off alone , and as expected , he dies . Its all about team bonding . During the campfire , parents came . My mother came too . I was happy . Then we started the campfire , we were all so hyper with all the cheers . IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING . Parents were hyped up too . Sadly , the campfire ended . But the memories and all the bonding will all be in our heads . Finally , took a bath and went to the music room . We did a lot of hyped stuffs . It was really absoultely amazing and fun .
3rd and final day :
We slept in the hall . We woke up and brush our teeth . At that point of time , more than half of our class were having really bad stomachache , FOOD POISONING .
its all because of the noodles that we ate for dinner . One of them even vomitted . I didnt get to finish my breakfast because of my stomachache , SUCH A WASTE .
now , im sitting here typing . Thats all . Im very glad i bonded with everybody .
Here's a phrase ,
we may not have it {all together}, but {together} we have it {all} .
