GIVE ME A SCREAM IF YOU'VE MISSED MEEEEE ! :D

*crickets chirp*
Alright alright. Okay it's not been THAT long, but still... You guys do... right ? Right ?
RIGHT ! :D
Okay! Haha. If you hadn't found out, I've been overseas for the past three days in Malaysia, Petaling Jaya, for the most awesome COUNCIL CAMP'10 ! :D
The past three days have really, really been awesome. It exceeded everything I expected and thought I'd get to do. I'm feeling really happy, and warm and fuzzy all inside :D
So I recount everything that's happened this past weekend. Hold on tight yo !

19NOVEMBER2010 ::
Was really excited to get up and going, so getting up at five-ish on a holiday day thing was kinda alright :D Bus-ed down to Bowen and met the rest of the Council there.
I was the only idiot wearing white then. So I went to change to black, what everyone else was wearing. Heh :B
I started to panic when I couldn't find my passport, but I found it, tucked away safely in my bag. Whoopsie ! :x
Loaded up our stuff, and hopped on the coach ! Met AGNES for the first time, our camp conductor, along with AMANDA and CHRISTINE, who were conductors for this as well (:
Drove down to the Second Link, where we crossed the customs and got on another bus . There, we met UNCLE BOB, our tour guide :D Uncle Bob is cool ttm (Y)
Switched to another coach, which took us down for breakfast somewhere in Johor. Most of us ate from the Ramly burger stall :D It was AWESOME . And really, really messy. HAHA.
Bought some stuff and hopped back on the coach. In the bus, the teachers and conductors settled some admin stuff with us, and Uncle Bob gave us some background information about Malaysia.
Stopped at Melaka for lunch ! Ate at this country club high-crass restaurant!
But the food okay okay nia. 12 dollars per person sial. Scammz :o
Our table was probably the CRAZIEST ! We made the most noise and laughed like maniacal hyenas ! :D So awesome right !
In the end our table became the rubbish bin, where the rest of the tables' food were dumped to ! BUT WE ATE EVERYTHING (Y) HAHAHA
Then hopped back on the bus again and kept going, all the way down past KL and into Petaling Jaya :D Uncle Bob kept us saturated with information on every few kilometres of road :D
When we reached the hotel, we gathered at the lobby and waited for our keys. WEI XIANG and I were assigned to the same room ! :D
Had workplan in the seminar room :D Started out with the leg tower game ! We were supposed to stack our feet on top of one another and form the highest tower.
We were HILARIOUS I tell ya ! Everyone were trying their best !
But apparently we failed. HAHA
After that, we learnt how to contruct a workplan. This was important so as to encourage the reader to agree with us.
Thoroughly enlightened. HAHA :D
After that, we went for dinner ! We met up with the BOWEN BADMINTON TEAM and went to eat together!
Had Thai food :D Yum !
Shopped at Giant after that. Bought cup noodles :D
After that, we went back to the seminar room and started planning for next year! We had a really awesome discussion and I think the presentation was alright (: Satisfied ! :D
When we left the seminar room, we were talking pretty loudly. Then this ANGMOH FELLA came up to RANDALL, and in his face (literally), the angmoh guy hissed "SHUT UP!".
:o
IT WAS HILARIOUS . HAHAHAHA .
We were all really tired, so we went back to our rooms (: went over to SHITING, CHLOE, FADHIILAH and NAQEA's room with Xiangxiang, where we played Uno.
We saw an advertisement, and now Fadhiilah's name/face is linked with "FABULOUS"! HAHAHAHAHA !
After that Xiang and I went back and cooked cup noodles :D Yum! Ate the noodles, and went to bed.
Until JOASH showed up and stayed in our room for awhile, shivering on the couch
We didn't sleep straight away though. We stayed up and talked, until I think about 1 plus (:

20NOVEMBER2010 ::
Was woken up by Xiang, who woke up now and then throughout the night (:
Prepped ourselves, and got a (few) visit(s) by Joash again, after which we headed down for lunch.
Sat with the rest of the Sec 2 guys, and crapped while we ate ! Hahaha :D
Xiang and I went back to our room, to bring down our backs. I went to shit d:
Met with the rest at the lobby, and bus-ed down to Rumah Hope! :D
Some background on Rumah Hope: Rumah Hope is a non-profit orphanage, where children abused, abandoned or of whom parents have passed away can find refuge. They house about 70 in Petaling Jaya (:
Walked a little through the residential area to Rumah Hope. We were greeted by little kids running here and there and screaming! So cute :D
We had a little last minute preparation first, before we met the group of kids we were assigned to (:
But little did we expect... The group wasn't kids. At all. They were teenagers, OUR age, so we had a hard time trying to hype them up and communicate with them.
We started off with "Bang!". We managed to get them a little hyped :D But then they got bored, so we played "What time is it Mr Wolf". The girls were screaming, and the guys... were standing in a corner. Whoooops :o
Then we started on the lesson. We taught them about the digestive system! :D According to one of them they had already learnt this, but from what we saw, they, heh, didn't d:
The girls were really listening to ZHANHAO, who was teaching them skilfully, I must say, but the boys were distracted by the game of Captain's Ball Organisational Support were playing outside.
Then we played Musical Chairs! :D But nobody cared. HAHA. So we played Lao Ying Zhua Xiao Ji. And FINALLY all of them were hyped! WOOOO ! :D
After that we went to do some maintainance for Rumah Hope. Events was assigned to clean up the perimeter of the building, which includes picking up litter, clearing the drains and... pulling weeds.
Personally I've never pulled weeds in my life and I must say, it's hard work! But doing it with the rest of the department made the job really fun :D
The grass area were full of bare patches from all our uprooting. Some of the weeds were HUGE. :o
I think we did a really awesome job with it all! Am so proud of us :D
Then we gathered and waited for lunch to be ready. Agnes taught us some really cool action songs (Y)
Then we had lunch! The food was AWESOME ! :D And very spicy! HAHA.
After that, we bid farewell to the kids and the teens and the adults who took care of them (: All of us couldn't bear to leave the cute little kids! D:
Walked back through the neighbourhood and got back on the coach, which brought us out of KL and to the Batu Caves! :D
At the Batu Caves, the conductors had planned for us an Amazing Race ! We had to solve a puzzle, beat one of them to the "modern" scissors paper stone five times, climb and count the later-revealed 272 steps to the caves and let Uncle Bob take a jump shot for our dep. It was really, really tiring ! :o We managed to solve the puzzle and beat the conductor on the second try and count all the steps, but we failed the jump shot. It's not really Uncle Bob's fault. The camera's hard to operate ><
But we enjoyed ourselves and climbed back down to the ground (: It was drizzling, so all of us were really afraid we might slip and fall down 16 flights of century-old steps. :x We were so relieved when we finally touched ground! Hahaha :D
Then went for shopping ! :D Didn't buy anything though. Besides some chips from Giant. And Starbucks! HAHAHA :D
Ate at a Indian restaurant somewhere down the road! It was AWESOME ! :D BAOCHENG was spazzing over the curry and the chicken. I TOTALLY AGREE (Y)
Bus-ed back to PJ Hilton after that. We had our Performance Night, where each department had to perform a rendition of our school song that described our trip :D HAHAHA all of us sang out of tune despite my guitar :B OH WELL. HAHA .
All of the departments did a really good job too :D Woohoo!
We ended the camp with a activity called "Sticky Thoughts", where all of us wore a "Superman Cape", and what we did was write nice things on little pieces of paper and stick them on each other's capes. It was so fun ! :D Was chionging to write as much and as many letters for everyone :D I hope you guys liked it! :D
Everyone was really sweet. Seeing the cape makes me smile (:
We wrapped up the camp in high spirits, and all of us were really happy :D
After that, we had to do Hotelwork, so we gathered at ZhanHao's room and discussed the points given to us. We took awhile, debating over all the points and opinions. Was really tired and was attitude-ing somewhat. Sorry yoz.
After that, went back to the room. Felt much better after showering ! :D Hahaha.
Xiang and I had another round of cup noodles! :D
A few people came after that for a while, and we talked a little before chasing all of them back :D Don't worry teachers, we didn't sleep late ! :D
Xiang and I stayed up for a while, and we wanted to tank the whole night. After making coffee for him and myself, we sat down on our beds and well, fell asleep :x

21NOVEMBER2010 ::
Woke up at 7.15, when the morning call came :D Xiang and I were too tired to wake up by ourselves!
Went down for breakfast, and chatted with the rest of the people there. Was laughing and cracking jokes. HAHAHA :D
After that went up again, and packed our stuff. WE WERE LEAVING MALAYSIA ALREADY! So sad ):
Gathered downstairs, and took a few pictures before leaving :D
Then hopped on the bus and went down to the KLCC ! We visited the KL Twin Towers, where all of us had a camwhoring session with the two metallic towers :D
Then bus-ed down to Berjaya Times Square for shopping ! WOOHOO ! :D
Went to buy stuff with WEIXIANG, ZHITING and KEERTHANA :D Bought a sweater and some stuff for my family members :D
Then bought Starbucks again ! BECAUSE IT'S CHEAPER THERE (Y)
Got back on the coach, and said bye-bye to Christine, who wasn't going back with us (:
First part of the trip was boring. We just sat around and crapped a little. Until we called Vivien to come and play Uno with us ! THEN WE GOT CRAZY .
The road trip back was probably the most fun and most crazy one I've ever had! We were all crapping and making jokes and laughing. It was AWESOME (Y) Thanks WEIXIANG, AINEE and VIVIEN for that amazing afternoon :D
Took out my guitar in the later part of the trip. Even though I ain't really good at it, I got some people singing along so yeah, it was pretty cool :D
Passed through the customs, and reached Singapore! :D Bode farewell to Uncle Bob who stayed in Malaysia (:
It was cool in a way, to be home, but I was also really sad, sad that camp was over ):
Alighted at Bowen and said bye-bye to the uncle who fetched us home all the way from Petaling Jaya :D
Went for dinner at Point afterward with YINGYIH, JARON, WEIXIANG, AINEE and VIVIEN :D Ate Macs. And can you guess what we did?
Right. WE CRAPPED. Hahaha :D We laughed till our jaws almost fell off! HAHAHA.
Then said farewell to Ainee and bus-ed home with Jaron, WeiXiang and Vivien. My stop was the last (:
Reached home and showered ! :D Used comp for a while but was so tired that I went to sleep at 11 !

Just wanna thank all the TEACHERS and the CONDUCTORS for the camp, and all the COUNCILLORS who made this trip so awesome :D I'm so glad to have spent the last three days with y'all ! :D
There'll never be another trip like this !
Rock on :D Hahaha.
Alrights. Spent a loooong time writing this post! Shall stop here :D
