Too much free time
Prefect Camp @ Trolak [ Part III ]
After the early morning excercise, we had our breakfast. It was awesome . Ask Johan about the bread if you want to know. Then we groups 1 - 8 split into 2, 1 -4 went for the obstacle course whilst group 5 - 8 went for rafting. So anyhow, group 1 - 4 started the day with a short game. We we're divided into groups of 3 persons. Therefore there were 12 groups. The game goes like this. A groups has to "bomb" a group and the "bombed" group will "bomb" another group. My group was group 11. Well everything was going fine and there were only a few groups left. So, one of the groups "bombed" my group. And our group, "bombed" ourselves... LoLz... we forgot we we're group number 11. H a H a.
Later on we played a game similar to raja botol. But this time, any number divisible by 3 must be replaced with the word hutan. Nothing much to add here, just that the form 5s were the last remaining people. After the short game, the obstacle course officially started. My group started off with a balancing act. We had to hold another person while crabwalking on a piece or plank with water below! There were more "game modes" implemented by the evil facilitators. So anyhow, jian yao and jun wei from our team fell into the water... lucky didn't pull other people in =P
After that, we had another obstacle. We had to carry our teammates pass a horizontol pole at my waist level. So anyway, me and iqbal "played a mini game" to see who will be the stepping point for our teammates to go over. So I lost lo.. have to become the stepping point.. hehe =P had everyones foot print on my back ! ^^ So everyone passed the horizontal pole already. Jian Yao and Jun Wei were left on the other side.
Now, the problem is, they are freaking heavy! lol =P not trying to insult lar, but really heavy. So anyhow we managed to bring them over! Hurray!
Afterwards there was the balancing act. It was easy for me, but of course God made everyone different. Some of my teammates had balancing problems =P. I had to go through the balancing act twice, as I lost to Iqbal again. NoO! Having a bad luck streak today. Then, we had the "spider trap" obstacle. Our team chose to crawl instead of going through the strings. =P. Me and Iqbal crawl through the obstacle in weird and maybe funny ways.. haha. My body was totally covered with sand. Gila man.. Look like sarven. LoL.
Soon teams 5 to 8 came to the obstacle course. And groups 1 - 4 went for the rafting activity.
To be continued...
P/S - Im feeling depressed =)

Eat till you drop
went to church this morning and went home at 12 pm. Wasn't able to go out to see and1 or whatsoever...
5 o'clock in the evening, there was a youth camp committee meeting, I guess it was fruitful. =P But what I want to highlight here is not the meeting. Its all about the makan ! haha =p
After the meeting ended at 6.30 "we" went to bandar sunway for steamboat. A table was already booked for us, but when we arrived there, the table was sapu-ed as we came 30 minutes late lol. Anyway the shop was lucky lo, if we makan there sure they rugi one... You'll know why later.
We went down the row of shops and spotted another steamboat restaurant. This time it was cheaper and somehow better lol. I would'nt know cause I have not eaten in any of these steamboat shops. So anyhow we took 2 tables. After grace we attacked the raw materials, ranging from crabs, fishballs, squid, crayfish and many more. The guys table didn't have any greens at all ! wahhaha. We took mountains of raw materials and we managed to down 3 plates. Imagine that =P. I think that the shop made a loss instead of profit lo. But since not everyone gila eaters, so I guess they made profit too =P.
The restaurant even served ice cream. No mercy was given to the ice cream as we took the ice cream like there was no tomorrow. ahha.. Beside the ice cream, there were fruits, I personally took 2 plates full of honey dew.. ahha.. After that we went home with a bloted stomach. =
Thanks to Ee Leen's mom for the lift home =)
What I ate :
Crab stick
Prawn
La La
Bamboo-like-sea-creature LoL
Oyster
Squid
All kind of Ball!! ( H a H a )
Ice cream
Honey dew
and some weird weird things... ahha
Enjoyed the dinner^^. God bless the readers!

Prefect Camp @ Trolak [ Part II ]
After the free time, it was dinner. We had a nice dinner and then we met our motivator, Miss Wong Lei Lei the best motivator I've ever seen in my entire life. Then, we went to a hall for her motivation talks. Her motivation talks was servant leadership ( I think! ). In between her talks, there were slide shows and fun activities. That made her somehow better than your usual motivators. Well one of the activities she did was, each team had to have the first person blind folded and the other team members having their feet bound to each other. The objective was, we had four mats that we can only step on/use to cross the acidic river.
At first, everyone tried on their own to cross the river with only the four mats provided. Soon, me, xue jieh, ivan, wei ling and danny's team collaborated to cross the acidic river. We made it safely even though we were last. I really salute the other teams which made it across with only 4 mats. Cheers to Sarven and Nicholson whose team reached first. After that, it was another activity where we had to "fish" items out of the river with a stick and string. All teams did not understand the rules properly. H @ H @. And we sorta invaded the river and instead of fishing, we went hunting .. LoL.
After those activities, we went for nightwalk. The only catch is, the nightwalk is WITHOUT blindfolds. I mean have you wondered whether is it better to be with blindfolds or without? So anyway, the eight teams were rounded up in the jungle near the flying fox area. And each team waited for their turn to be released into the jungle, with only a string as a guide. They facilitators released each group around 5 minutes apart. Well, poor Sarven had to wait almost 50 minutes before his group was released, lol. Blindfolds certainly do us good. We have been doing nightwalks in school with blindfolds and some of us think its just to make sure we dont see what the facilitators are throwing at us, or what is coming at us. Well, I personally think that blindfolds are way better. I was leading my team during the nightwalk.
I was relieved to find the way out quick. We had to wait around another 20 minutes before all the teams arrived back at the guardhouse. Then, we set back for our rooms.
I was walking together with sarven, wei hsien and wei ling at the back of the pack. When we were near to our rooms, I heard the sound of shoes rubbing against that tar road. That freaked me out. When I told sarven about that, he thought it was a dog. ahha.. He was more scared than me!! By the way it was 2 a.m. in the morning.
I sleep around 2.30 a.m. without my shirt, as it was wet with my sweat. Woke up soon after that because I was super cold.I jumped into the blanket to keep myself warm and woke up at 6.00 a.m. the next day. At 6.30 we had our excercise with Edwin Wong. We jogged and did major stretchings. I was amazed as I did not think I could jog that far, H @ H @ ! cheers to mE! Edwin taught us abit of tai chi in a fun way!

Remembering the Trolak Camp

Prefect Camp @ Trolak [ Part I ]
Went to trolak for a prefect camp on the 18th - 19th of March 2006.
Everyone met at school at 6.00 and left at 6.30 in two buses named Bus A and Bus B. The form 5's and Form 4's got to sit in Bus A, which looks more appealing to the eye from the outside, wherelse the lower form got to sit in Bus B, which is simillar to a normal school bus, but with air-conditioning. Our dear head prefect didn't attend the camp for certain reasons which I do not know =). Yao Siang and Wei Ling were the "Ketua" for the boys and girls respectively.
We arrived at the campsite around 9 or 10 a.m. and had sausage buns with chocolate milk. Later on we were assigned to our respective groups. I was in group 2, having Iqbal and Azeera with me. The other members were of form 4, 3 and 2. After the groupings, we were again assigned to our Rooms. I was assigned to room 101 with 2 other friends. Room 101 was beside room 102 which was assigned to my other 3 friends =). Room 101 and 102 were the largest among the other rooms booked by my school. It was actually the teacher's rooms. H @ H @ !
After that, we walked a really long walk to meet up at a specific location. There, group 1, 2, 3 and 4 were brought to execute the flying fox activity while group 5 to 8 did the low rope. Everyone had fun, did many poses. I did a meditating pose as I "flew" through the air =). Later on we had lunch. Lunch was okay, nothing much to add. The only thing that astonished me was the fact that we were not required to put our plates, forks, spoons, cups and etc into basins. There were waiters waiting to clean up after you. This camp seems more like a vacation by now.
After lunch, groups 1 to 4 did the low rope. It was like a mini obstacle course in mid air. Your legs will not touch the ground. Had fun with the obstacle course and did it a few times. After that it was "free time" till dinner. =)

Force of Nature
Recently unable to go online because my router and my modem got burnt when a lightning hit SOMEWHERE, which I don't know as I was out on my way to tuition and suddenly it rained when I was along some shops. Had to wait there for the rain to stop, but it didnt. So I walked to USJ 5 from USJ 4 despite the rain and arrived there, amazingly not soaking wet. Ha Ha!
Well you must be wondering why I'm online now. It's because I borrowed my friends modem. He's taking it back at 10 PM.. which is like 2 more hours. Anyway just camp back from my church youth camp few days ago. It was great! =)
