For the past 4 days (11th-14th Preparation Camp included), the committee had been working hard to ensure that the camp would be a successful one.
For the pre-camp (1st day), I reached school at around 7pm and played some basketball before our Captain came. Next, we helped each other to complete their props for the games when the camp starts. Mr Chan treated us roti prata for supper, and I enjoyed it as it reminded me of the times we used to have roti prata for our previous camps. However, it was a huge mistake to drink half of the curry sauce at 10pm+ (You will know why), then we slept in the BB room for the night.
First day (Official starting day for the camp): I woke up with a bad flu, and sneezed for the whole morning. As a result, I had to rest in the bunk until I felt better. I felt kinda bad missing the drill section so I arranged part of the classroom so that my friends could sleep at night. I slept until 1pm feeling all hungry with the strong urge to eat some meat (pork especially) then I ask Shawn to accompany me to the hawker centre to buy my lunch :)
Next, we conducted the drill session for the boys and then we had station games- I was in charged of the "Break Your Heart" station. For this station, the 2 teams would have to choose 1 boy each to stand on the extreme ends of the bench respectively. (The bench is placed on top of a soft, thick gym mat, aiya, the blue thingy that you see in the school la!) They have to battle it out and knock each other off the bench using pillows. Pillow fight. (Yeah) The game reached the climax when our Captain battled it out with one of the boys.
Second day: We went for Sunday Service, then to drill and band practice for some (like me), then it came the mass games. For the 1 mass games, we played "Search & Destroy". There are 2 teams, each with a totem wrapped with newspaper, and the teams have to destroy the totem with water guns until the totem is exposed, and a heart-shaped hole will be revealed. The committee joined in the fun and "attacked" the boys and for once, I felt sadistically exhilarated :)
After that, we had dinner, the dinner was excellent, the drumstick caught our attention. It was like heaven. It tasted so good and batter-ish. But our hopes were destroyed when we realised that the drumsticks were most likely from the Tyson chicken company. Xuan Zheng told us that the Tyson chickens are injected with chemicals into their bodies to increase the size by multi-folds, or as what he said, "Big body, small head".
After dinner, we had bunk inspection (we had many many many bunk inspections throughout the camp and many of them were not worth mentioning as it is sadistic and "just like that lor-- pumpings and more pumpings"). However, this time, we used the soft approach. We told them nicely about their mistakes and they did not do a single push-up.
Next, we had our mass games 2. For this game, there are 2 teams, each person will have a balloon in his shirt and the teams will have to attack each other by bursting their balloons. Next, for the 2nd round, we played the game zombie-fied style, which means that all but one will have a balloon in his shirt and the zombie (the one without the balloon) will have to burst the survivors' balloons and infect them, and the cycle will go on until everyone is infected. Finally, when the games ended, it was time to send the boys to "hell" (Lala Land). With their bodies wet, the boys crawled under the tables in the field, did Seal push-ups and shared 4 huge bottles of 18.5L of water, yes, you heard it right, 18.5L. Next, debrief and lights out.
I gotta keep this short.
Third day: Woke up, had breakfast (IT WAS LIKE OMG.. Sausages with scrambled eggs and baked beans and bread. Awesome...). then band practice for me, I'm playing for the 2011 BB & GB Enrolment! Woo Hoo! Finally, the secondary fours left early for the English course... (bleh..not worth mentioning as well.)
To close the camp properly, Mr Chan treated us to Mac for lunch. :)
Okay. Bye!
