back from camp

yn and eil are back from China woohoo. and at this moment as i blog, eileen is blogging as well while our dearest yining is trying her very best to scrape every bit of china out from her scalp.

before i forget i must really tell you guys how camp was like.

camping is forever such a hassle. it was fun while it lasted.

first day was our land expedition and so we walk 5km, that bloody 5 km earned my group 2 points and me 3 blisters on my feet. nightcycle was great feeling with the wind in my hair and the smell of nectar in the cold yet lonely night. the trees cried in the wind as though calling out for us to stop, to listen, to accompany. the horny cicada screamed out for their mates in the silent night. actually none of that happened, except the cicada part which Estelle insisted on. our dearest group ic (adrian) decided to stock up on apollo biscuits from the snack pile during the break, which we feasted on day 3 in the guy's dorms ... without the girls.

second day was sea exp so we build a raft out of barrels and poles which was to be sailed out to sea. under the delusion that the raft we built will float, we proudly set it out to sail. well it wasnt long before the raft started to disintegrate - one barrel abandoned the raft at mid-sea. it wasnt all bad except we had to turn back half way coz we were too bloody slow.

third day was kayaking. woo hoo hot and sexy all the way with Safarina (what a pretty name). oozing with charm and energy out at sea, i can confidently say that all the other kayakers were jealous of us especially the sorrowful duo who went "fat", "ugly" at alternate strokes. we had out door cooking that day as well which wasnt much of a disaster (besides the part where i broke our only two eggs on the first day of camp) considering we got 3rd out of 8 groups. the corned beef looked like dog food but if you really stared hard you would have really though they were meat balls. thank god we pulled that off in front of the judges. group 2 FTW!!

fourth day was ropes course... nothing much to talk about except how the teachers cheated us of the ride on the zip line and how they threatened to burst our testicles with the freaking tight harnesses and taut belaying rope at every station.

fifth day was a 8km run at 3AM. i officially declare my legs fake from now on. we did an area clean up after during which my group had to clean the bunks, good luck to those cleaning the toilets (floating pads, squished worms, disposable undies you get the idea). nothing note worthy except you can observe how often people turn a blind eye to a mountain of sand at the corner.

food everyday was ok except my group mates dont eat their greens and i end up with 4-5 serving of vegetables.

lastly, it is true that you lose weight after camp, this applies to everyone, no matter what weight. got 1.5kg over 5 days now i am bloody 48kg. FREAKING 48kg. all time low in 3 months
