it was actually fun lahh.haha.okay.i must recall all the stuff tt happened for the NYAA thing.start. ---->
day 1:we reached there, then we were split up into groups called watches?mine was LIVINGSTONE.then our instructor was wilfred.then when they announced the instructors for the watches, i was like, huh?out of so many instructors, why did we have to get him??!?haha, but then as the days went by, we realised tt he was actually very good and nice.we feel tt he is being an instructor because he likes it and not just because of the money.but tt's just what we feel.haha.none of the ppl there was from my class.except tt i only knew sandra?haha.then we took the group photo.then we took the boat to camp 2, where the stalls/stores were.the area's sure big.haha.then we went kayaking.but before tt we looked at the stores.and we had to carry two water bottles, each 2 litres?and we filled the bottles up with water from??tada! the tap!with chlorine infested water.haha.a bit too exaggerated.and we had oreos to eat.it was part of the rations.which meant i brought the cookies for nothing!hee.but i didnt give the instructor my sweets.oh ya.our instructor was wilfred.and he was very funny.and nice to us too.okay.the first day wassnt much.and ya, we pitched tents.we had to climb up so high just to pitch a tent.and gg up to sleep also must climb so much?hahas.anw, the ground wasnt so hard.so it was a pretty gd sleep.but cannot be compared to my bed!

day2:we had the trust fall thingy. like u had to stand and fall backwards.tt was so scary kae.it's like u're afraid tt u'll fall on the hard grass.lol.but there was a canvas.more like afraid tt ur team-mates will not be able to support u?yeap.and there was also the mini rock climbing.and i scratched my arms and legs while trying to get down?i'm useless.haha.and we had to put on the harness.xhui said it felt like wearing a diaper?hahas.actually, a bit lah.oh yeas, and there was cat1, which meant a storm was coming.so we had to stay in shelter.then after tt we trekked to camp 1, where there was cooked hot food for us.it was rice with egg, veggie and chicken wing.there was also cold drink!then all of us were saying, so excited!we're gg to get to eat those food.we were tt desperate.haha.but before tt we of course had to pitch tents.and it was rocky ground.and i woke up with a backache whole body ache? we were damn tired.carrying those heavy bags which weighed at least 10 kg?and walking on uneven roads.and i smelt of sunblock, sweat and mosquito repellent everyday there.and we bathed there too.in a toilet no one went except for out watch?so it wasnt crowded at all.and it was clean.haha.we're the geniuses.lol.we had breakfast there too.it was char kway teow.it was delicious.haha.as long it's not what we coooked ourselves.and i forgot to mention, we also had cold water.it was like a luxury there?even though i can just buy it outside?

day3:we had our kayaking expedition.s. ying and i were on the same kayak and our kayak kept gg out of the way??!?i guess i made s. ying very frustrated and mad at me?but it's my fault la.i didnt have enough arm strength.and we kept lagging behind at the start.but after tt it was okay.we managed to catch up.so it wasnt tt bad i guess?but i had sunburn.not on my legs even though i only wore shorts?but on my hands and face.ugh.and we packed food in our life-vests but didnt eat any?how ironic.lol.we couldnt keep our hands off the paddle.there were waves/tides!haha.we were so afraid tt we would capsize.and we kept banging into people and people kept banging into us.lol.then we finally reached our campsite.the place which looked like jurassic park?the gates opened.then we carried the kayaks in there after carrying them to shore.omg, they were sure heavy kae.then came the heavy backpacks.which weighed at least 10 kg?haha.then we came up with our motto.'livingstone, truly mobile.'haha.oh yahh, we also had a mascot, it's name's wilfred jr/wilfree.haha.we carried it along.and at tt campsite, we stood there getting burnt by the sun, applying lots of sunblock.there was no shade at all!and my sunblock was useless.SPF 30 while others was SPF 130!!tt was the reason why i got sunburn.and not to mention pitching tents in the hot sun.and we were there saying tt we would rather get demerits and a cold drink rather than be there.hahas.then after tt we built rafts near the quarry.but we couldnt get it into the water.cuz it cannot make it.when wilfred saw it, and after we did the tests, wilfred said, dismantle the raft and we'll go for a swim.hahas.jumping into the quarry was quite scary at first.but the swim was nice.the quarry was so nice.the scenery was like china.and we saw kingfishers.(:then we 'bathed' in the quarry.then we refused to get up.kept asking for a few more minutes.then when we finally got up, we were so freezing cold.a far cry from what we were feeling just now.(:and we were making sarcastic remarks about how hot we were.lol.and we changed into dry clothes with our team-mates holding ponchos.there was no toilet at all!we had to go near the sea to do a small business.so i ren-ed until we went back to the other camp.then we cooked our own food.that was when we ate the TASTIEST maggi mee.added too much water.no extra ingredient.the noodles turned soggy.ugh.i want to try it again!haha.but there was vegetable soup.and tt was nice.but salty.hahas.then we washed the mess-tins at the sea.using sand.but we couldnt see cuz it was dark so it = not washing at all.cuz it was still oily.tada!~then we saw a dog while filling up waterbottles.it was scary cuz it was dark and we could only see the outline of the pupil.it was green.then we went to sleep.but i couldnt sleep.so i ended up talking to sandra. we talked about many things.haha.until almost 12.jess and the others said they heard some poeple from far away 'SINGING KARAOKE'haha.so loud some more.but i didnt hear, so i must have slept like a log.just as usual la.nothing surprising about tt.then the instructor said tt it was acutally prayers.prayers so loud one meh?unless they use a mike.lol.haha.
