recalling interact camp

currently listening to: 遇到 [恶作剧之吻]

TIRED AH.
plunked myself into bed the moment i got home.

oh yes and the PINK PANTHER TEAM WON!!!!
guess who were the group leaders? guess?? guess???
*beams*

the camp was tiring even though i didn't stay overnight.
the running around and rolling around was enough to kill.
*recalls mission impossible 4*

we had this treasure hunt in tpjc that had us running from one end of the school to the other and back again then to the other again then back again... you get the idea. ehh, solving the location clues and running around is still okay, but the DIGGING IN THE SAND part was hell. i think pink panther solved all the location clues first, then we spent a very very long time trying to decipher the locker number and the code number to the locker [they gave us some sequence and series kinda math clues. lucky we had science people around lah]. we had all our permutations for the code number correct but somehow the lock didn't open. so huiyan decided to try all the possible combinations from 001 to 999 while all the other groups were waiting behind us, then... tara~~ it was unlocked!!! it was a code number that we had tried before too. something's wrong with the lock larr. anyways kudos to huiyan for her perseverance!!!

it was not over yet cuz we had to run to the long jump pit to get our final prize. we found this yellow scroll in the pit, and we thought we had accidentally stumbled onto Pikachu's clue (Yellow Group) so we frantically buried it back again then tried to look for our pink scroll (Pink Panther mah). we dug... and we dug... and we dug with our bare hands... the other groups finally caught up with us, dug with us, and gave up but we were still very very determined that the pink scroll must be around the pit somewhere (since the yellow scroll was there). so many times we wanted to just open up the yellow scroll just like that but the sense of honesty and erm, guilt (cuz we didn't tell the yellow group we found their clue-- stepped on it sumore.) prevented us from doing it. so we dug and dug and dug... until i cannot take it anymore so i just stood up and called the exco straight to confirm with them. then it turned out that that yellow piece of paper was the prize lahh!!! *curses* why the toots did they use the yellow paper?? misled us into digging for a whole 20 minutes like mad idiots under the hot sun only to find out that we had already found the prize 20 minutes ago. and what if we had been so honest as to give the yellow group that yellow scroll? we would have been giving away our prize lah!! grrr.

but ANYWAY, we won!! and got ice cream for dinner, but we ended up eating ice cream porridge cuz it was already half-melted when we opened it.

next was the night-walk. deborah and me were rolling here and there on the ground at the titanic. got so many tiny cuts because of the stones and sand on the ground. *sobx* what happened was that deborah and me were suppose to be stationed at the titanic and throw things down to scare the j1s who were walking to the female toilet(hall) underneath us. BUT the j1s were walking from the rock wall, across the track then to the hall, which means along the way they would have seen deborah and me on the titanic. so the only thing we could do was do hide behind the pillar and roll on the ground when the j1s reached the hall...

and so we rolled the whole night away.

i think we were trying to renact MI-4 or some jackie chan movie lar.
hide behind pillar, lie on the ground, roll to the railings, throw the balls at the shutter, quickly roll out of sight then stay still in silence.
... and this we did for every single pair of j1s that came along.
and some j1s were so bad they threw the balls back at us!!!
hmphh. i bet some of them were scared. act only.

the main highlight of Day 2 was Shi Zi Lu Kou.
some food game where you have to link the words up to lead the your next food.
one food per ESTATE. 6 Stations in total. Little Angel included sumore.

The Pink Panther Route:
TPJC: BREAD
TPJC 7-11: DOUGHNUT
PASIR RIS: TEA
BEDOK: APPLE PIE
SIMEI: EBIKO SUSHI
SIMEI: ICE CREAM

heh. so we ran around the east side of singapore. waited sooo long for the Apple Pie-- i would say it was a miscalculation on our part. so we reached Simei East Point to meet our Little Angel-- who happens to be Shirlene, and she made us stand still in awkward poses individually all over the ground level of east point for one minute. i was standing in front of the lingerie counter lah! and my pose made me look like i was gonna touch my chest or something. counted 10 ppl stared and giggled. *sobx*

there goes my reputation.

but the worst was over after 1 minute, and we got our food and headed back to tpjc asap, and we were the first group to return!!! so happy!!! we thought we won so we were screaming and cheering away along the corridor... then some complications and misunderstandings cropped up and we were almost disqualified (eh, thanks to someone har, give wrong information). FORTUNATELY we ended up in 2nd place, but was still a little sad about our 1st place that was not meant to be.

next up, IU NITE!! i was a model for IU nite, modelling the Indian costume that was a little too big for me, and had this sleeveless vest that made me look like i was wearing pyjamas. fortunately there was a shawl to go with it *thanks god*. you should have seen deborah-- hers was some Thai costume that is so much more revealing. waika was modelling the male version of the Thai costume with her.

we were all so nervous when we were backstage waiting for our turn-- putting on makeup, walking here and there, taking photos, practising our steps etc. oh and putting on mascara is a torture, taking it off is even worse.



then came my turn! walked out to some Indian music, trying to balance myself on deborah's high-heel shoes (stilts to be exact) and giving this frozen smile that people like emu translated into 'so fierce' when i met them at the reception. *sobx* so many people told me that i was walking too fast, but there is an explanation!! i had to finish walking when siva finishes the narrative of the Indian costume, and my narrative happened to be very short so i had to walk faster to coordinate with it. then people told me the photographer couldn't take my photo at all cuz i was too fast and would turn and walk on when he tries to. aww, never mind. i'm not keen at all to appear on the tpjc newsletter anyway.



then everything was over!! we all had our 1 minute of fame and were busy taking photos at the reception. but my camera died. *sobx*

ehh.. today was slack day at camp.
it was a rounding up of stuff.
bought macs breakfast for the pink panthers with the leftover SZLK money.
cleaned up the canteen (whereby deborah and me just slacked cuz we were told to monitor and spot potential leaders from the j1s' reactions during the cleaning-- *guilt*).
then went to the auditorium and proudly receive our title as the champion team!!!

PINK PANTHERS GOGOGO!!!
hugs to hafizah, huiyan, fish, emilyn, iyliana, kenneth, holly, jiehui, liyu!!!
we were great, and you guys were even greater =)))

i'm extremely worn out right now.
despite the sleep i had earlier.
haven't gone about uploading the photos on photoshare.
but i promise i'll do it soon!!! *sumpah*

sometimes i think i think too much.
that's why i blog so much.
i can just sit here for 2 hours and type non-stop.
despite the fact that it's 2.30am and my eyes are falling out.
haii~~ blogging seems like a waste of time.
but i like to waste time. *shrugs*

having literature consultation with ms lam tomorrow.
i've only spent 1 hour preparing for it???
that's not exactly gonna work out huh.
argh, we'll see tomorrow.

need to turn in now before i just fall asleep in front of the computer.

記憶は明日のために強さになるものだよ。きっと。
