the camp started off with registration, participants had never a chance to choose the groups they were in (: haha, followed by........
Briefing / Envisioning I
each team had to come up with a group flag.. which each group came up marvelously
well done!
The next activity was an exhausting 1 for the teams..
AMAZING RACE!
yay! the game seems simple but it was tiring when each group had to run all over school to find the matching pictures.. i was with the blue team, survivors,
personally, that group was an energetic team,yet at the same time,their eyes are always peeled for the items they were finding..
Good Job guys.

Lunch was delicious,Chicken Rice,thanks Mr Rashidi's MUM... ahaha
Envisioning II was up next, I kinda forgot the topic XP

haha..they had their own breaks for 1/2 hour,
followed by field games! WET WET WET!!!
haha..yes it was fun..(:
yet,we were not suppose to play.. :/ naughty naughty..haha
wash up! it was kind of distracting for me :x
Another sumptuous meal for dinner, than reflections,
'What does my Reflection shows?'
im just being random, anyway,
the reflection was led by Mr Rashidi and Nadia N.
(even though she lost her voice,she TRIED to talk)
NIGHT WALK time, i wonder why are the teams so scared about when it was the facilitators were the 1s hiding and going around the school, with only like 1 or 2 partners??
anyways,the scaring part was unplanned,whereby yong lin and nadia n went around scaring them..haha..
We apologise for that.
Supper was oreo.. haha..
thn lights out around 10 pm..
zzzzzzzzzzz
while facilitators and mr rashidi was 'Busy' almost the whole night..
night watch was boring to some yet shocking to another *hint* *hint*
haha.

2nd day
morning call was at 6.30am??
then it was 'supported' by basketball match to make every1 freshen up!
unlike some people who just stayed at school >,>
anyways,breakfast was ok..just eating BREAD and drinking SOYA BEAN
