'I wish you enough hello's for the final goodbye'
-Jasmine, Munshi's instructor
~
Okay, obviously, I won't blog about the entire camp, cos then it'll sorta ruin the surprise for the people who are going next year etc.
BUT, there are some highlights.
- 1st day was pretty awkward. Everyone didn't know everyone, and we all thought Munshi was a retarded name for the group of 16 who consisted of 4 SAC (Me, Mary, Janella and Meredith), 4 St. Gabs (Lester, Jared, Wayne and Ming Kang), 4 Regent Sec (Liyana, Kayal, Benjamin, Evan), and 4 Serangoon Gardens (Erni, Izzah, Xin Yi and Bryant).
-Someone actually thought my name was EVA and Janella's, JAMELLA.
-Admin stuffs and tons of briefings, everyone's energy was pretty darn low and I swear, all of us wanted to go home.
-First night, we had to pitch tent and cook dinner in pitch dark.
-Me and Mary were like, 'Pitch tent in pitch dark. GET IT, PITCH?!?!'
-Girls did the cooking while me and Jan were the only girls helping the guys pitch the tents at first.
-It started to pour really badly but we still continued to pitch the tents.
-Jared and I were pitching one side together and I totally forgot his name, so I was like 'EH EH...umm...TOM! GIMME MORE CLOTH'
-And thats how Tom for Jared started.
-Then I called for Lester, but accidentally said Leslie and it sort of stucked.
-The SAC tent was next to St. Gab's tent and we made lots of noises.
-And SAC were talking, laughing away, when our sleeping time was supposed to be 11am.
-Me and Meredith were the surviving ones sleeping at 1am, so we're GBF, GayBestFriend.
-2nd day,Next morning, the girls woke up at 4.30am, (with no help of an alarm) and started unpitching the tents.
-Oh wait wait, Mere and I woke up first, cos Bryant(with a silent T) woke pass our tents at 4.25ish shouting, 'EH WAKE UP LA BIMBOS'
-Pissed, me and Mere woke Jan and Mary up. We then started unpitching our tents.
-Me and Mere wanted to wake up the St. Gab's, but to our surprise, SOME OF THE 4 were half naked. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Topless, la.
-We were so shocked, we walked back to our tent and unpitched.
-I woke up the other girls and off we all went to the store, together.
-Had Physical Training (PT) with Marshall, but it wasn't that draining. Push ups, all the guys show off only laaa.
-The day went by pretty slowly, and I wishing how time would fly, cos I wasn't having a good time. Mistake.
-Wayne complained to me that he couldn't sleep at all because of my giggling and that I shone the torchlight at him in the middle of the night. WHAT.
- We did belaying, and I FINALLY belayed someone -JANELLA MY BRA DUH.
- And FINALLY, I had my hands on the rock wall, after 6 years of yearning to be on one.
- We tried kayaking too, and capsize drill. IT WAS FUN LIKE SH*T.
-We land trekked abit to our second camp site, Camp 2.
-MAN, we felt pretty good after putting down our heavy bags.
-Yet again, our tents were next to the St. Gab's. TSK.
-Dinner at Camp 2 was good, cos we all bonded pretty darn well.
- Me, Mary, Jan and Mere sat down in a circle with Leslie, Tom, Wayne and Ming Kang and we started talking, bonding.
-And they claimed they could HEAR EVERYTHING when we were in the toilet cos our toilets were side by side.
-And we shared that sometimes, we felt as if the guys were in the girl's toilet and that the girl's were in the guy's toilet cos our voices were so 'near' ish.
-Slept well, ish.
-3rd day, BAN KAI-ed. (Munshi's private joke)
- We played the Mingle (Minger) game, and the 4sac taught Munshi BLOB.
-They all pretty much sucked at the game, and alas, Wayne emerged as the winner cos he was the last one standing. THE BOYS ALL SPRINTED, what do you expect!
-Had PT again, this time, I could feel muscles forming mun.
-Packed, and got ready for land trekking.
-Land trekking was the worst, but one of the bestest experience ever.
-We missed our first check point, and we all got pretty pissed and LOST too.
-Our walk to our first check point, everyone was solemn and quiet and pissed, prolly the first time you'll ever see Munshi dead silent.
-We walked alottt (about 10km ish) and it took 5-6hours to reach Camp 3.
-3rd night, yet again, SAC next to St. Gabs. Tom whispered something mean to me.
-Kayal thought that Mary and I were drunk cos we were laughing like crazy and running everywhere.
-4th day, packed for kayaking. Tom ditched me and Mary(HAHAHAHAHA) and so me and Mary went with Ming Kang (I call him Micheal and soon, so did everyone else. YOU'RE WELCOME MICHEAL).
-Sea expedition was combined with another group, Marshall. So it was Marshall+Munshi =MARSHI
-Me, Mary and Micheal had a real hard time to get the tri-yak in position but we had loads of fun singing. Just the 3 of us.
-Well, 3 ish. When me and Mary sang 'Stop and Stare', Micheal only sang the 'Stop and Stare' part and 'Heal the World'.
-Avons and kayaks were supposed to switch place. Btw, tri-yaks had three while the 2 Avons had 7 and 8.
-OH OH, Bryant was the only one who pee-d in the sea. And he had his 'Oh-this-is-heaven face when we all stared at him pee in the sea'
-Switching time, Mary at first did not want to get on the avon BUT I PERSUADED HER.
-And since Mary and I switched places with Angelica and Jane, MICHEAL wanted to join us, so he switched with some guy.
-So the COOL AVON had 5 St. Gabs and 2 SAC. (Aaron, Hyper Boy, Wayne, Mary, Iffa, Jean Peng and Micheal)
-We all went pretty nuts and sang our hearts out and I didn't know they knew Taylor Swift's songs. It was all aweZUM.
-Lord knows how much fun the COOL AVON had. Really. The AVON people didn't want it to end. And I had people wanted to get on the AVON to join in the fun.-Lunch break was awesome, we had in the middle of the sea and it started to pour really badly, so we were all wet but still feeling good.
-Felt sad when we reached Camp 1, cos we knew it was all over):
-We kayak-ed for 4-5hours. But it felt really short):
-ALMOST jetty jumped, but instructors called it of for Marshall and Munshi cos it was jellyfish season.
-I knew that most of the Munshi peeps had their hands held together already and were ready to do a high school musical pose before we hit the waters.
-Awww ):
-Cooked dinner with Marshall and the Mushroom soup tasted real bad.
- Took lotsa pictures.
-St. Gab's and SAC in Munshi actually planned to wake up at 2am to do stuff(please don't think wrongly) but SAC didn't wake up, so we all woke up at 5.45 in the end):
-Packed our bags, and had our lunch. CORDIAL DRINK (Munshi's private joke)
-Souvenir shop was closing, so me, Mary, Meredith, Janella and Wayne were running down for our lives just to get to the shop.
-Our final goodbyes): OH, St. Pats performed 'Nobody' for the campus.
-Marshi took pictures all together.
-Hardcore exchanging of phone numbers and emails.
-SAC were leaving, and St. Gabs were screaming and jumping, saying goodbye to us. It was all whacked. Plus, it was from a distance. Pretty cool, no?
