im here to update about the camp.
day1
reached school at 7.00am in the morning. waited and waited till the SGLs told us to gather. grouped us. im in
teamTARA (: SGLs gave us our red camp tee shirt. :D
took coach to malaysia. sat in the same one as teamZENIR. the guys of teamTARA sat with teamVELDA. longgg trip to mawai lama.
reached. was really amazed. shocked. you name it. haha. had to walk a short distance to the mini-jetty. took a boat over to the opposite "island" where the campsite is situated at. Mawai Eco Campsite is darn cool. lol. total kampung! :D:D:D i'll post the photos later.
went to our sleeping quarters and i was shocked. the sleeping quarters look like this,
(took this on the last day of camp, that explains the towels)
yea, those are our "beds". one "bed" will look like this,
this is my bed. i slept on the first bed. hahaha. yea, so we were totally stunned. then we gathered again at the SGLs' sleeping quarters. they taught us how to tie the canvas. :D so the beds look like this after putting on the canvas,
(taken on last day of camp too, so the towels are still there. but before we took the canvas out)
my bed!
so yup, we took a boat back to the opposite shore and went for a Historical Walk. visited bunkers once occupied by Australian soldiers during World War II. darn cool! there're words carved inside. quite scary actually. hahaha.
came back and played dirty water games. obstacle course. this is a different kind of obstacle course cuz once you fall, you fall in muddy water. remember? that camp is situated right on a swamp. the camp is fully made out of materials taken from the nearby forests ( the camp is surrounded by forests, in fact ) but i couldnt play the games cuz ive got sensitive skin. rashes pop out once i get uber dirty. :( so teamTARA played while i sat aside with the SGLs. haha. woah, its darn funny la. seeing people fall into the water with a loud "Thud!" lol x:
then came the wash-up time. YEAY~ bathed! froze to death lar. there's no heater there, luckily there's still a showerhead. and a mini-toiletbowl. LOL. pictures will be up later.
went to the Hall and ate. said tick-tock cheer. woah. the food is alright la. but spicy!
after that was the nice part! teamTARA went for
firefly cruise! we took a boat and went down the river. DAMN PRETTY! imagine la, all the trees were glowing cuz there were fireflies all around!! woots! but if only it wasnt a full moon night, it would definitely be much prettier. :(
listened to facts about fireflies. and ghost story. lol. freaky~
went back and had supper! then we slept! YEAYY! :D:D:D
