Arts Camp, Comms Ball

23/6/08-27/6/08
Time really flies, the previous blog entry i was still whining about the prospect of going to camp and in a flash i am back home! YAY! home sweet home.

And anyway the camp turned out to be not so bad as i thought. some parts did suck from an organiser perspective but other parts r really not bad.

It was really dry and boring at first though especially the 1st 2 days. it felt almost as though, the organisers are just filling all the time slots with activities to keep us occupied without much thoughts put into the activity. Activities are crafted without the aims or objectives in mind. And tonnes of unneccessary filler activities as time buffers which shd be taken out and put to greater use like perhaps time for washing up etc instead of ending in the wee hours everyday and long waiting hours for some activities to start proper.

Such is the result of planning camps and running camps and having been to lots of camps. You start to compare and evaluate camps at the organisational level and find so much to complain. sigh. But to be fair, it's such a BIG camp and certainly very very challenging to execute. so great job!

But ok lah things picked up after the day at the beach and the day of mass games at the school field. and really happy to see my og getting closer especially after all the madness dunking ppl into the sea. only crazy ares (my og) did that lor. the other og peeps r all relatively dry. but still finding it abit strange cos i guess i need time to adapt.

starting to miss my og mates in SIM instead. haha. but oh well. forward looking. and i hope to bond more and better with the new og. i am really fortunate lah. i had great og mates n ogl n councillors. so no complaints! :)

oh n clubbing sux. such disappointment. it was a night of total bad music. :(


OG ARES n Mascot SUPER DUCK! :)
Scouting skills came handly in the construction of the mascot. :)

anyway this camp was qquite disruptive for me also lah cos i had to zao camp twice. zao on monday afternoon den back on tuesday for comms ball and then thurs evening for dance pract for charity dinner.

for gals out there, comms ball can really get pretty boring man. but the magician was good. but anyway still it's an experience. :)
