Orientation Camp!
Saturday, January 17, 2009 ; 8:09 PM
Orientation camp is super fun!
I'm super enthu too! :D
WOW.
Friday.
I went to school and met Marissa and Vanessa near the staircase and they said they needed to paint the flag.
Then , we couldn't get the access to our classroom even though we've asked around.
They said we needed to wait til after assembly...
Assembly le!
That day very special , first time we were allowed to wear PE attire and assemble and no need sit according to index number! xD
After assembly , we proceeded to getting our survivor kit , including our landyards and booklet.
We settled down our bags in the respecting classroom before going to the parade square.
Speaking of bags , I was so surprised that my bag isn't the biggest...
And people with bigger bags than me , even luggages (those small ones that roll on wheels! omg) , had to take their sleeping bag seperately , while mine is already inside my bag. WOW , how I pack de? Lols.
Then we went to parade square for the icebreakers.
Our student leaders , Dennis , Kian Wee , Nicholas , Carissa , Zi Xin , Vanessa , Wen Xuan , lead us through the icebreakers!
Ten pieces of newspaper was still managable ,
Five pieces a bit squeezy.
Then after we completed five pieces (was it five pieces? not sure) , Nicholas told us that we were the first to complete the five pieces.
So obviously , we cheer!
After we cheered , Nicholas laughed and said ,"Actually we weren't the first , I tricked them!"
LOL.
Then the other leaders gave him a diao look while he was laughing?
After that we went up to the hall and did our cheers...
Survivor challenge!
First we went to Sky Garden to do the "Hunt For Survival"...
Basically we blow the ping pong ball to the other end of the table and make it drop into the bucket , but only ten person can surround the table at one time.
Quite fun.
Next , "Net Of Safety" !
We had to pass the raffia string around while we stood in around a rectangular blue mat as the "river" or something.
Then the net on our end had so many big holes but the people on the other end didnt pass the sting to us!
At first they said the "victim" had to climb the net but after that he just had to lie down.
And guess who the "victim" is...
it was JunMeng! LOL.
Randomly chosen de...
When he laid on the net , he weighed the whole thing down despite us pulling the strings very tightly already...
I think somehow we passed , cos I heard one of the station master say that it was because of the "victim's" weight and not because the net was not properly "wove".
After that was "Survival Tribal"!
We had to form a group of three and tie our legs together.
Haha , I was at the side so I only got one leg tied!
Also , we attached a balloon to each pair of tied legs.
Game starts and we went around stepping on each others' balloon!
Luckily the balloon wasn't big cos it was mouth-blown so the popping sound wasn't loud!
Some tripped because they didn't held each other tight enough or didn't hold each other at all...
And... a girl twisted her ankle cos she tripped quite badly , if i'm not wrong...
But luckily her ankle wasn't painful already after lunch time.
And speaking of that , the SJAB was really very effective!
One of our student leader , Carissa I think , called the SJAB leader and within minutes they were here already , with all things prepared!
We were suppose to complete four stations before lunch but we only completed three cos we're noisy and out of control at times.
And we were scolded at the "Survivor Tribal" there for not keeping quiet to listen to instructions.
Lunch!
Stupid.
I brought a very small plate!
Lols. Partly cos can't fit in a big one.
Then people with bigger plate get more food while my teriyaki chicken and all that were stacked on top the rice cos there isn't space!
The girls serving the food was so shocked at my plate! LOL.
And I got less than enough rice...
Then form teacher , Miss Saw , couldn't resist but take a photo of me with my small plate.
Eek. Embarassing much?
Back to Survivor Challenge!
We played "Food Hunting"!
FUN!
I wanted to be the blindfolded one so it would be more fun.
And we had to walk through the "maze" blindfolded.
Along the way , the station masters kept pouring water on us!
Some went into my shirt , some on my hair...
Actually I like it!
Cos it was very warm and the water cooled us all down.
Too bad for those who weren't blindfolded! :P
We had to pick up the objects in the pail at the end of the maze as "food" and take off the blindfold and return to the front.
I did it several times...
Then all of those blindfolded were wet!
YAY!
So funny de , I couldn't help it but screamed when they poured water on me cos it was sudden and cooooooooooool!
Lols.
After being wet , we went to play "Camouflage"!
We had to so called "camouflage" somebody by putting on newspaper , leaves and face paint.
LOL. We've all sabo-ed Nicholas (Our SL wor...)!
Most people kept stuffing stuff on him and made him look so funny!
Made him had a hard time washing off the face paint... Lols.
Let's "Escape From Cannibals" !
The station masters mixed up boys and girls and we had to squeeze from standing on four benches to three in order to get the last bench infront so we can move.
Eek. So unbalance de.
We felt like we were about to fall.
But but , we didn't reach in time before the balloon bursted on our friends' head...
T.T Had to do duck walk round
the whole canteen.
So tiring and embarassing la!
Wahaha , our SLs also had to do...
"S.O.S" is so stupid and disgusting!
The station masters arranged us in one boy then two girls or sometimes three in a line.
There was more girls than boys , wahaha.
We pass pass pass the items.
And Nicholas kept telling the boys , "Boys , don't be scared to interact with the girls , cos someday they might be your girlfriend."
Everybody went EEW...
Pass pass pass the items and the most disgusting part is , we had to pass the poker card with teeth! OMG.
Infront of me was a boy and luckily behind was a girl.
And and , our faces came into close contact , close contact!
Eek.
Most of us kept "spitting" after we passed the card.
TEETH. omg. Everybody bite it de.
Next next , we played "Twisted Jungle Vines".
We had to go through the holes in the "web".
And the holes at the bottom couldn't be used more than twice!
Then had to carry each other.
Bigger size people goes first.
And Mavis and I went to the washroom so when we're back , suddenly a lot of people were at the other end already.
I was the last one I think.
It was so scary leh.
People carry me through the hole.
And I meant carry... ><
I screamed... omg , I screamed. Lol.
"Lead the Lost Sheep"!
We had to give the blindfolded person on the "Keyboard" directions to the letter to "type" in.
Not much to elaborate.
And finally , "Mysterious Hut"!
Something like treasure hunt.
Had to search for pieces of the picture around the eco-garden.
18 pieces all together. Six for each picture.
I've only found one piece of it.
And the piece I found was quite obvious but nobody realised it?
It was held down by the pot and a big part of it could be seen.
Play play play.
We found 14 pieces. Yay!
Went to the hall...
Learned the OC Dance.
By then I was tired already... Cos of all those games...
We prepared for the Tribal Runway after that.
Dinner!
Luckily my kind SL , Wen Xuen (I think... I'm not sure) , helped me take the paper to put on the plate , cos during when it was our turn to get the food , there wasn't any paper left.
So I asked her to help me take just in case.
Now I could get more food with the help of my paper! :D
Eat eat eat.
Back to hall~
We did some cheers and then Tribal Runway.
We were so nervous for Yu Hong who was our model...
Lols.
Also played games.
After that we went to wash up.
Luckily Vanessa brought me to a "secret" toilet , if not we would have to line up to wash up...
Zzz
Ooo...
Night activities!
Haunted house and Night games!
Haunted house was scary.
SCARY.
They made the atmosphere very eery...
The music and messed up tables and chairs.
First room , we were told the ghost story :
There was once a girl named Adeline and she had a Teddy Bear.
The Teddy Bear possessed her soul and made her see some things...
And that caused Adeline to commit suicide.
But after her death , the Teddy Bear still won't give up and continued to try to get her soul.
Our job is to find the charm of the undead and Adeline's soul.
Second room :
Have to find the charm of the undead.
I began screaming already...
Cos got the phantoms.
I was holding on to Vanessa very tightly...
And got a councillor act as the girl Adeline and carry Teddy Bear.
So scary from far...
With torchlight shining and her expression...
And she like follow us de...
MUSIC ALSO made it scary...
Third room :
Phantoms and black ghosts.
Had to find Adeline's soul , which was a light stick. O.O
OMG.
Black ghost grab people de.
Luckily the ghost only tap me on the shoulder.
She kept tapping me.
But she grabbed Marissa's neck...
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap for lots of time.
But I was too scared to look le.
I was closing my eyes while Marissa lead me on...
Forth room :
The coffin room...
Had to put the charm of undead in the coffin...
Then got black ghosts walking around...
They kept following us!
I was very scared..
Yeah I'm very timid.
After the charm was put inside , the station master switched on the light for us to see the coffin.
Wow.
The "dead" Adeline in the coffin look so "ghostly".
She was sitting up and she sat very straight!
I wonder how she could sit up so straight for such a long time...
And she was wearing Qi Pao...
Oh ya, in one of the room , forgotten which , there was a phantom which pat me...
I was like closing my eyes while covering my mouth...
And was very very scared...
Marissa stood with me at the front of the room...
Then got one phantom come pat me and asked ,"Are you alright?" several time...
Haha...
Also got people talk to the ghosts.
After the lights were on , some even shake hands and talked to them...
They aren't scary when you face them calmly , but I'm not calm!
I screamed like dunno how many times. O.O
After that went to play "Chingay".
Like act out the word and pass down...
They acted out "T" with hand which looks alike.
Then the "V"... became like flower like that...
LOL.
Also played the whatever game that is...
Blindfold and walkthrough a "tunnel" and get soft toy...
Next ,
Blindfold and crawl underneath the net.
So embarrasing... Me and another Vanessa was the last ones.
And everybody was watching us crawling.. I can imagine how retarded I look.
All of them went "Jia you jia you"
Lolol.
Everything's over...
Brushed teeth...
Went to washroom...
Etc...
Lights out alr we still haven't settled down.
One midnight , then laid down in the sleeping bag...
Zzz.
Wah.
I so lucky , didn't wake up in the middle of the night at all...
Slept through! :D
Saturday...
Flag raising , morning exercise , breakfast...
Then , cheering session!
We also did our OC dance.
Then it was disco.
Disco was super fun.
We all super enthu de.
And I meant SUPER.
Everybody screaming and shouting while we ran along our "tutu-trains" songs after songs.
SUPER FUN de.
We were holding on to each others' shoulders...
Some who we don't even know... Lol.
Prize presentation.
what the...?
We won most artistic flag...
I was like... our flag artistic ar?
And Mavis and I agree that... it was because each class could only get one award and they couldn't find us any award so just give us this.
Cos 101 de flag much nicer than ours.
After that ,
The student coucillors in charge , Karine , James and Noel all spoke.
While Karine spoke , I was receiving things from my friends' HP so didn't pay attention.
But then I heard what James said.
He said till really couldn't control and cried le.
What he said made me want to cry too but... I don't want my mum see me cry.
But my nose sour sour already.
We waited quite long before we took our class photo...
Then went home.
Too short the camp... I want it to be longer! :D
I want to say thank you to all the student leaders who planned this wonderful camp for us. I really loved it! ^^ It was really fun! And it was all because they planned it and made effort to let us enjoy it! When we slept , they haven't slept and before we woke up , they already woke up. A BIG THANK YOU SENIORS! 辛苦了seniors! Also special thanks to my class leaders , Nicholas , Vanessa , Zi Xin , Wen Xuan , Dennis and Kian Wee! :D
Oh gosh.
