CNYE camp

Last thursday, i've been thinking bout joining sumthing which is kinda new to me...... CNYE Previously i've neva been involved in CLS events but nevertheless i figured out that since this sem i'm quite free, it wouldn't hurt joining sumthing dat can help me improve my chinese language proficiency and make sum new friends along da way. One of the reason why i've neva thought of joining anything related to CLS is probably cuz of the difference in culture. I'm not chinese educated while u can say that the club is mainly consist of ppl wif chinese educated background.

So, there's this camp which i attended, which was held last saturday n sunday for the working committees of the CNYE and some CLS high-coms as well. It was kinda last minute decision, thought bout it countless times cuz i was worried ..ehhe before the camp i was pondering how am i gonna mix with a chinese speaking group cuz i can't really speak chinese. I'm a BANANA~!!!

The moment we arrived , we were lead to our rooms. We stayed at the camp where the National Service was conducted. Our rooms are like those rumah panjang type. The rooms are quite clean unfortunately the toilet is not really clean cuz the water is kinda stucked and one of the bathroom has holes in it, large hole. After that, there was a short briefing and ice-breaking session. From there we were divided into groups. Our group name is ' xiao long nu' haha... and every group has a own sort of like team cheer, all thsse thanks to the brilliant idea of Suki. One heck of a lively gurl.
After lunch we had dances and then we had games. During the games i was kinda blur, very blur actually cuz all the clues are all in chinese. All i did was juz follow my team around not too sure wat's goin on. It's like a guessing game. I juz buta buta follow, if ppl yak si i oso yak si. The games wasn't that fun but towards the end of it, there's the obstacle course which is wat the NS guys did. Well it was a lot easier than i thought. I dun think i even need to break a sweat to complete. yeh man, it was dat easy..believe me. The only thing which were tough is the 12 feet wall, which we did not hav to do. It would hav been kinda challenging. The games took like 2 hours, after that we had time to bath, a lot of scenes in the guys toilet.... as usual....guys... and we had dinner after that. At nite there were more games and more dance.
Towards midnite there was like a sharing session where we went to the beach and split into our divisions and sort of tell our your feelings. Just for your info, i did talk ok and it was in chinese probably one of the longest sentence that i've ever form out of nothing. muahahahaha......
After the session there were still games for us which was crazy cuz the games are like non-stop all the way barely any time to rest.
The last game for the day was bit crappy, we were blindfolded and supposed to walk with the rafia string leading us. It was crazy cuz i stepped on this antz nest and both my feet were full wif antz..kena bite like shit. It's already been 4 days but it's still itchy. Sigh..

The next day after breakfast, we head to the beach and finally at least there's sumthing that doesnt requires you to be able to read chinese words. It's like bola baling type of game. Unfortunately our team lost the first game and no longer need to take part..lolz.. hmmm..somehow i hate losing man, cuz overal i'm a competetive person , when it comes to challenges like dis , i live for it. But then again win and lose is part of the game ; acknowledged that. After that there's more water sport games which was OK quite fun.. get WET babeh~

After lunch each team supposed to do sort of like drama. Uhh..i dun even wanna talk bout it, my acting skills are juz 'too good'. I think the only role i can take is those like Bruce Lee ..muahahaha
After all those there were more dances and songs den photograph session and saying goodbye to everyone bla bla bla... Overall i think the camp was ok, everything i did there was new to me. Neva done such things b4. Wanna thank V V for inviting me to go..eheh and also Li Wen of cuz, helped me a lot during the camp and the rest of my grp members. After the camp i felt that i'm actually NOT as BANANA as i thought. Probably all this while didnt really try to speak where else when i was at the camp i think i tried my best`~ and it's alwiz nice to make new friends.
