OBS WAS AWESOMEEEEEE :D
I think on the first 2 days I saw it as so sufferable cos Tock Seng was so dead and weird and unhigh and everything. Then by day 3 it got so much better and omg I miss it so much now. I was in tockseng with
Yanping Linn NessaTan Zhiming Yanling ZhangXue Elaine Yunan Rebecca Cheryl Tessa Lanqiao Lidan Yingxin. (heh yingx I koped that from your blog) and we're such a sweet group seriously. especially at the end when we had to thank/apologise to various people then it was all so sugary sweet and abit mushy?
I am too lazy to blog exactly what we did each day so I shall kope yingx's post and edit! (thankyousomuch yingx muahaha)
Day 1: learning how to pitch tents and stuff. we were at Camp 1, so we got proper food and toilets awesome :D
Day 2: kayaking practice (gosh i do not like capsizing swallowed so MUCH seawater) heh I loved capsizing it wasn't that bad!, then we kayaked to Camp 2 where we had belaying practice. and Camp 2 is quite sad :/ first outdoor cooking! I think Tock Seng cooks really well. Our rice was better than my homecooked rice please.
Day 3: Height Elements were not fun ): i am such a loser yeah i really hate heights. I thought the log game height elements thing was quite fun except that ness and I were so loser. we were the tallest pair and yet the shorter pairs all completed it faster than we did. trekked with our heavyyyy backpacks about 3km to Kekek Quarry, where we jumped into the quarry and swam around haha very fun :D
Day 4: Sea Ex! we kayaked from Kekek Quarry, then cut through all the winding rivers inside Pulau Ubin, crossing over a mud bund and concrete roads (must carry the silly heavy kayaks!) and then ending up in the sea and kayaking back to Camp 1. a few of us had to carry the stand at the ledge and carry the kayaks and stuff. me jodi isabelle rebecca and i think alisa joined us. then we kept going "AHH I FOUND A ROCK YAY YAY" (cos you will sink in the mud unless you stand on a rock) so that part was quite amusingly fun:D haha i threw away my water shoes awesome (: ME TOO ME TOO my Kayakis were poor Zhiwen and Yanping who had to endure my annoyingness for 7 hours :/ no you weren't that annoying. I think i was annoying cos I had to keep going to be my silly starboard marker so y'all had to keep turning for my sake.
Day 5: debriefs and performances haha we changed the words of Uptown Girl (i know WanTing loved our performance) to:
OBS
we've been living in our dirty tents
surviving on biscuits and food in cans
writing reflections with our pretty pens
OBS
kayaking under the hot hot sun
trekking under the weight of our backpacks
conquering our fears of heights and ants
(Chorus)
and when we talk, when we sing,
we all love TOCK SENG!
OBS
we've had lots of fun with our buddy group
from morning exercise to games to Sea Ex
Washington plus Tock Seng is Tockshington
OBS
we would like to thank our instructor
Fong Jie has been there for us all the way
guiding and teaching us to cook yummy rice
OBS! and we sang our silly fongjie's boyfriend song as well. to the tune of i-forgot-what-song. I thought our performance was quite good actually :D:D:DI think tockseng and washington (our buddygroup) worked super well together! kindof. and can you believe it, OBS has 7 couples getting married in 2009?! whatthehell I think they miss having a familytoo much so they just create families among themselves:D
ohoh and i kept saying hi first and bye last to rain.(cos according to her first hi and last byes are the most important) as compared to the second hi and second byes that i always gave to sherry. but aww sherry no need to be too sad you know i'm just kidding :D
k now it's back to homework and drawing land):
I can't believe mr wong is making us illustrate a coverpage for our sap sketchbook according to 130:livethelegacy -.-"
bye world
