Bacck from camp and everything seems so lovely at home. haha

Day 1:
Went to school only to realise Karen, Carissa and Amos are not going. Thus, the rest of us trudged to the hall for a quick briefing before heading to the buses. Slow traffic on the way. Reached Changi Coast Adventure Camp in about an hour and went to our bunks. the bunks were about 18m by 5m rooms, with wooden planks on both sidesw of a concrete central pathway. relatively cool and mosquito free.

We were up for lunch duty so we served the food, ate, and then Act 1: Kayaking!! had to joic 0714a cause they didnt let us use the single kayaks and my cls had an odd number. Almost kayaked to bedok jetty by myself cause my partner was having a free ride.. He kayaked for awhile, stop, then kayak awhile, stop again. haha. Beached up and then kayaked back. Luckily, my partner made a better effort in helping me, or else my hand could have just dropped off.

Dinner followed, with the well awaited bathe time next. Waited for like 20mins for a cubicle.. Then there was house meeting where we needed to decide what to do for the campfire. Pacer and cg rep meeting next, so missed most of the campfire stuff.

Supper was an affair with milo (1 tub condensed milk + 1 spoon milo powder) and curry puff (or as the odac leader said, curry pok, The milo was sweet, but it was perfect to end of the day.

Day 2:Woke up at 4.15am and lay in bed with arm aches till 5am. It seems that whatever orientation that i sleep in, my arm will start aching, then it would spread to my wriset, and finally my fourth finger. Agony.

Bathed and went for morning pysical training. We did like 100++ jumping jacks and alot more, including running.

Act 2: Orienteering. Ran around Pulau Ubin in amazing race style. Had to take pictures of the checkpoints. Very nice and quite physical. Drank 100plus!! woo!! (First time I'm so excited over a can of 100plus.)

Back to camp for lunch and the Act 3: Rafting + Dragon Boating. The raft we made was half-floating, but we managed to paddle to the instructor's kayak and paddle bacck without losing anything. Dragon Boating was funn!! We made 250m in 59s =)

Day 3: Nothing much today.. Pt was okay. Packed up, cleaned up the bunks, and went to the canteen where Aquila was announced the winner!!! 0711a made 2nd! 1st and 3rd place went to 0714a and 0712c respectively, both of which were also from Aquila. Great job!!
