2nd consecutive of going back to school for lessons. Yesterday was Maths and today was Chem. Both are equally boring. D= D=
It's the last time I officially see Apacheans in school before the holiday ends. Because there isn't anymore mass lecture slots organized for us liao. Only got those mini class extra lessons. This sucks man... want to see them again must wait until school reopens. D: D: D: But I don't want!!! Heard they going to organise an outing soon so yeah, I'm fine with wherever they going!!! =D =D Long live APACHE!!! :D :D :D
Followed the movie-goers to Dhoby Ghaut today (WeiHao, YY, YiXiu, YiKai & Sher + LY) then we parted. :P Me, YH & LJ went to eat lunch then we went to do something. Yah, do something. Don't think on the wrong side, it's actually something quite fun. :D :D :D
GP on Thursday, don't forget people! And yeah, Thursday is a special day for sooooomeone. It's his birthday. :D :D :D

So to sum it all up, AB Camp was fun, and I think the most fun and interesting part has got to be the night expedition. My first time walking 18km inside Singapore alone, it's a very nice eye-opener for me. :) And, thanks alot Nick & RH, giving me the moral support I needed when I was at the very end of the journey. Thank you APACHE! :P
Just to add on, during the night expedition I was a road marshall first, then a navigator, then a sweeper, then after that mix here and mix there become don't know what liao. Plus everyone was getting tired so we just conserved energy. xD
Road marshall was something like superman, stand in the middle of the road, raise your hand and command all cars to stop for your teammates to cross. xD Then navigator was the best, basically apply all the skills you have learnt in Geog & map reading into there and you can settle it EZPZ. Sweeper was rather boring, because it's the last person in the group before the SIs. Felt very bored behind leh.
Some observations made during the camp...
1) Alot of the campers are left-handers. Don't know why but the % seems to be higher. Left hander is so cool man. How I wish I was one. :( But I'm born right hander so... yeah. Ivan, YK & Cody are left handers. They look so cool when they write. :)
2) Instructor Jo-erh seems to be Malaysian, because the way she said the word "some" sounded like how Wei Hao would say "some" too. (Flat sounded)
Heh... so with that, it's time to put AB camp aside and move on with life! :) CTs are coming soon, got to chiong HW and start mugging liao. :D
Was assigned to Grp 1 APACHE along with Cass. Then if I never remember wrongly got 3 councillors, Razmiah, Cindy & Suang Fu. And then 5 class leaders, including me, Cass, Cody from 10/09, Wen Xin from 30/09 & Vivian from 15/09 --> this means I know all 3 class leaders from 15/09 liao lol. Vivian, Sunshine & Benjamin.
Ya so the rest should be CCA heads I think.. Ren Huai from Badminton, Richard from ODAC, Joelle from Volleyball girls, Wan Ying from Table tennis, Yong Kang from Air rifle, Ivan from track & Nicholas from Red cross.
And not forgetting our 3 very cool SIs, Instructor Kexin, Instructor Jo-erh & Instructor Xing Hao. All 3 were very nice people, learnt alot from them and also enjoyed their company. :)
Yup... Day 1 started off with games I think. Shan't elaborate too much because I forgot what happened liao. Basically those that promote teamwork building & trust one lor. Ya then after lunch got workshops, then after dinner got workshops again. Basically Day 1 & 2 at LAC was rather boring, Day 2 also games in the morning, then pia workshops all the way down. Day 2 got this Vision workshop in the afternoon, then the class leaders take a different workshop from the rest. So ya... we were made to come up with a class vision sketch and also given comments from Ms Pillai. <--- Shan't say if it's good or bad.. hehe. Then Cass wanted to go toilet mah, me and YT pretend to be an SI and ask "How much time do you need?"
"1 minute" "1 minute too long, I give you 15 seconds, go!"
Basically that was the last we saw of Cass in her proper shape... because she fell down while going up the staircase and had a really huge hole on her left leg. I think it required stitches. Ya so she had to drop out of AB because of that. :(
Without her our sandcastle planning went down a bit because she's the best drawer we had. Day 2 night we were discussing and discussing about sandcastle lor, somehow it felt unusual without Cass because her drawings all gone liao.
Day 3 we left LAC for Day expedition in the morning to Kent Ridge Park (in the rain, it was like OMG so hard to walk in the rain with the stupid poncho on), then afternoon go East Coast Park go build sandcastle liao. Wah shiok, the wind blowing at ECP is so cooling. More or less we had alot of fun building sandcastles, though alot of sand came in and out. Ya so we, because our group very unique one, came up with this Milo bucket whereby alot of water is added to alot of sand lor. Yup... playing with the Milo is so fun. :D
Ya then build finish liao, take some pictures and some jumpshots (me and Cody keep bugging Desmond to take pictures for us) then we left for AJ. Night time prepare for SL project on Day 4 de.
Day 4 --> morning go AMK FSC to carry out SL project. Benson the Handsome from Anderson who is President of the Student council was the in charge. Yeah. The kids are super hyper... something like if an SI ask for volunteers but then only a few campers raise up their hands. Then we ask for 6 volunteers all their hands raised up. -__-" Lol... ya we had alot of fun there also, playing with the kids, entertaining them, seeing them so happy I think we also quite happy de.
So come back AJ, then we clean up and prepare for Night expedition liao. Set off from AJ at 10.30pm and we walked for 7 hours to East Coast Park (the same area we built sandcastles). Finally reached there at 5.30am this morning --> which means I did not even sleep at all sia. And OMG we walk until sibeh tired, my legs all aching, think tomorrow no need go out le. But it was very fun & exciting, and we keep thinking of any lame cheers that came our way (like the L-A-M-E) one. Lol, and ya, basically when we arrived at ECP we just plomped onto the ground and slept with the super nice cooling breeze from the sea. One of the most shiok times during AB camp, especially when you have this sense of achievement after walking 18km (although our route is one of the shortest one) in 7 hours!
Then wash up, and had this so-called AB graduation ceremony. Ya so AB Camp ended at around 3pm, then I think the AHC --> Always Hungry Club went to eat lunch.
Maybe I shall say abit about my group bah. Yeah they all very hyper one, especially the power rangers. YK & Nick are the 2 funniest guys, always cracking lame jokes and then making us all laugh one lor. Then the girls... we always bully Cindy during mealtime because she eat so slow... Day 3 @ ECP then we force her to throw away the rubbish :D then she ate faster since then le lol.
Oh ya I remember... I think one of the funniest requests for the SIs was "Permission to eat, instructors". Lol go find out why yourself. =)
And I remember something again... the five power rangers by the colour of the house tees (Taking pink ranger to be wearing the Cheetah shirt lols...)
Yong Kang --> Jaguar (Red ranger) [Cool guy with a cool name wearing a cool Jaguar tee] Ivan --> Cougar (Blue ranger) Nicholas --> Panther (Yellow ranger) Cody --> Puma (Green ranger) Ren Huai --> Cheetah (Pink ranger)
Yeah and with that, the Apachean power rangers was formed. They went to bug Mr. Ong at ECP after the night expedition to take cool ranger pose shots lols. Will always remember this group of hyper chatty people! :)
Hmm I think that's all I can think of now... will update again later if anything pops by. :)
