7 November
The first day of our SparkC camp. There was a lot of talk and murmuring in the hall..about bags and what-did-you-bring-and-what-did-you-miss-out that kind of thing. When we got on the bus, my bag couldn't fit onto the floor..it was too big and bulgy (hehheh) so I had to put it onto my lap..I daresay Meiying was uite uncomfortable, cos part of the bag also landed onto her lap. :P:P...anyway, we got to SparkC without much fuss and had that kind of briefing stuff. I was sorted out into the group CRUX, and my trainer was WILFRED. He looked like those kind of nice jock, and he had a rather "long" tooth. Most of my group consisted of 6A people. There were Michelle.c, Debbie, Valerie,Si Qing,Tian Hoe, Sheng Hao, Ren Hao, Ryan, Jordy and Alan from 6Aand 2 other boys and 4 other girls form other classes. Wilfred talked some stuff to us, demanded (not really demanded la) our wallets from us, then sent us changing into shorts. Then we had a tour round the camp. Pretty nice and clean. Then, we went to the "storage room" (??) to get our harness and helmet and blankets and the tent bags. Wilfred showed us how to pitch the tents and we had to pitch the tents before going to eat lunch. Pitching the tent was so much easier compared to the time at the p5 camp. Just click the hook here and click the hook there and you're done!! Hehheh..we could have our lunch now...
After lunch, we were supposed to do rock climcing, but we had to go through "belaying school" first. We had about almost and hour of practice, then we came to the real thing. I was the IC for the day, so I kena the first person to go up the rock wall. But before that, we had to set our goals first-how high we wanted to climb the rock wall..well, I set foot with only 3 blocks, but after much sweat and toil (??), I managed to climb the whole wall. :D:D I guess I could not have done it without the help of Miss Hayati shouting down there, cheering and telling me where to step on..and the encouragement from my friends below. Thanks so much people!! When I came down, my arms felt sooo extremely tired and I could hardly lift them to write down what i had achieved. I then sat down and watched others going up the rock wall. Everyone was trying their best, and quite a number went up to the top!! Congrats~!! hehheh...after everyone finished climcing the wall, we were sent to shower. Mich, Debs, Val, a girl called Melissa and I went to the farmost toilet. There, each of them booked the cleanest cubicle for themself, and I had to make do with a not-as-clean one. But it ended okay. We showered and had our dinner. Then our whole group played ice and water. The boys kept on cheating and the game ended up as a never-ending game. Haiz, BOYS!! I was really sweating after the game, and I was so glad Wilfred had chosen to sit at a place with wind ot play some games with us. The games were quite fun and when it was around 9, we all went to have our supper, which was biscuits and milo.Dippping the biscuits into the milo...the supper turned out nice!! Well, with that done, we brushed our teeth and prepared for a night in the tent. It was REALLY warm and stuffy in the tent, and I tried closing my eyes and sleeping, but inside, I was really wondering how on earth was I going to sleep. But in the end, I DID sleep, thank GOD. BUt I was woken up at around 1 plus by the others as they wanted to go toilet..so I dragged and lugged to the toilet with them. When we got back, I struggled to sleep again. Soon, it was time to wake up....(to be continued, now i got to go le..stay tuned hor~~! and i promise it won't be such a long time before i update my blog again..BYE!!
