UNIONE part 1
I am so sorry for not updating for such a long long time...cz my computer has been really crazy...i even had to send it for repair><>< ='( but i sort of learnt one thing, i must really not let my nerves get the better of me or else i will really lose focus on what i am suppose to do><>
after the briefing about what the camp was about, i think the line that left the strongest impression was "i think you all know that this is no ordinary camp, this is a council TRAINING camp" then they were saying they expect us to exhibit strong discipline and a sense of urgency...
then we carried out stuffs and ran to the atrium, we were given 20 mins to clean our sleeping quarters with the cloth and detergent we had brought. I started to panic a little cz the detergent i brought was for clothes...not for washing, but we still started wiping like some mad person up down up down, then the seniors kept saying"make sure you get every corner, the drawers, the sockets, the whiteboard, EVERYTHING" we were really running up and down the classroom, i remembered alicia, grace and I were like...alicia will use her soaped wet cloth to clean the latch top, then i will use my wet cloth and wipe over, then grace will use her dry cloth to wipe it again... we seemed like some car wash personnel ><
after 18mins, we started to rush out to assemble back at the atrium, i was really afraid that it might not be cleam enough or smt, but the facilitators decided not to check as it was our responisibility to keep it clean as we were going to sleep there... that is actually quite true, if the room was dirty, we would have to suffer as it would be us who is going to inhale all the dust... but the classroom was sparkling clean, it was like 10 times cleaner than what it was before.... ...
the next activity was trustwalk. We were suppose to support each other by leaning towards each other on a bench and had to walk on a series of benches, tables without falling and with a balloon in their mouth. at the end of the trail they had to burst the balloon and execute the punishment stated inside.... at first i thought it was quite an easy task but then the seniors started dropping and falling, in the end the facs had to changed the rules a little so that we could completed the task... we only managed to get one pair across, and that is hernhern and bianca...they are really amazing, i tried and i know how hard it is...i guess they really trusted each other...and also i think they knew the technique...everybody had a try but even after asking for time extension, shortening the route, changing the rules, we only managed to get one pair across...that was really sad... but i think that the sadder thing was that hernhern and bianca had to do crouches alone without any support from use cz we were too pre-occupied with the new pair that was walking that we sort of forgotten about them...i am guilty too...i didnt even know that they were doing the punishment...i only found out at the debrief...so it is kinda sad...
after that was lunch's on Us! Part I... that is all for today..i shall upload more tmr...
