Dreadful day . I made a super-big mistake during Bio presentation ! Like WTH , I also know HCL kills bacteria not breakdown food . I was so tongue-twisted at the time . LOL , I don't even care wad impression I left for kickapoo . Anyway , SS test is difficult ! I didn't really read up on the given factor . Sianess , Mrs Lim said that we must remove our texts from the class cupboard to revise . Damn , as if I will really revise if I brought back my texts . It would still be lying around on the floor . Back to heavy bag days . After school went for Robotics then Mc and home . Went to cut Koc's fur . She look more tidy and cuter now (: Then I went back to my room and I can't sleep . LOL . Lucky it rained the previous days . The whether here sux and my air-condition is having a problem ! ARGH . If only I'm in Aussie right now ... The breeze from the window at night is colder than air-condition here . I was like shivering there at night even with a thick blanket over me . Ok ... Tmr , morning needa go school . Gotta slp (:

Vichet , Cheryl and I went to Cathay last friday to watch Messenger . The show started around 9:20pm . The show is damn scary . More than 10 times scaring ppl . The movie only started 5min and my sanwich flew away . LOL ! Damn funny. Cos the part was like normal and no one would expect wad would happen then suddenly it jus gave a shock to everyone . Reached home very late . Today waited for Lihua den Karen and I went to library with her . Borrowed some books and we went to popular to get some stationeries and we went home . ARGH , I think Mdm Mala is da best . I kinda missed her lessons . Usedto hear tales that she was a very scary teacher but she is the best El teacher I ever had ! I never felt bored during her lessons . I just hoped that Mdm Mala would be back to teach us ..

3 DAYS IN BINTAN !
Posted Sunday, March 11, 2007 // 12:47
Whahaha~! Back from Bintan ! The camp simply RAWKS ! My itinerary below !

Day 1 ;

Woke up late and met them late at Mc . After we ate , we went to school to assemble in the hall . After everyone was present , the first group set off first . Our class was in the second group . Played some ice-breaking games with our instructors and we went to have a bite and we set off soon after . Reached Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal and we checked in . The ferry was moving and moving even before it set off . Me sat with Pei Shan and Roy . After a few minutes of the ride , I felt so giddy and feel like vomiting . Fortunately , John got 'suan mei' . After that I was quite ok . Reached Bintan and we waited for everyone to check out before we went on the bus . Firstly , the bus is so small and we had our haversack wadever with us and one of the seat was spoilt , the air-con was like not switched on but it was actually on . Lastly there were many many flies inside . Haha , Cheryl and I decided to stand throughout the whole 1hr plus trip to camp Loola . The road there was so bumpy , no concrete roads . Luckly I brought some cardboard and we fanned ourselves and others in the bus . Reached camp Loola and we had a de-brief . After that we put our stuffs in the tent and we changed into our wet attire . Our first activity for the camp is KAYAKING ! We spilt into 2 groups . First group will follow Instrutor Eaz for the Kayak and the second group followed Instructor Su Zhen for sea walk . The tide was very low then . Swap places with Caterine . Cheryl and I took over their places for Kayak . Kayaking is really fun ! Haha after that we went to change and had dinner . That night we had SONG-SESSION . Did our reflections with the instructors and we went for our bath and we slept . We actually thought of bathing in the morning as we were very tired . But lucky we changed our mind to bathe that night as there was no more water at around 4am . Haha , felt so fresh after bath . I actually thought I would have problems sleeping but I slept like a pig .

Day 2 ;

It’s a loooooong day ! So get ready ! Woke up and got ourselves ready for breakfast . Haha , I loved the breakfast there and the pineapple !!! The pineapple is soooo sweet ! After breakfast , we went to do our first activity ROCK CLIMBING . My legs went wobbly when I saw the height . LOL ! So I sat at the back and joined the rest as cheer leaders . Sigh , we were forced to play in the end . But when it was my turn I don’t feel sacred and even when I climb , I don’t feel anything too . Weird ... I gave up in the end . Haha , my hands are damn tired and the rocks are like moving here and there then I gave up . Quite sad lar , cannot climb up . Ok , after this we went for our second activity which is TEAM CIRCUIT . It consist of low elements and the wall thingy . Haha , I held Pei Lian and John’s hands for the first segment . When I reached the second segment , I wanna give up . I’m afraid that my hands and legs are too short to cross over . But instructor Eaz don’t let . LOL . No choice , I just go ahead and then I realized that it was very fun ! Because I told myslef that I must try everything here , I decided to go on . LOL . But at the third segment , I almost fell down sia . Lucky got those guys there help me . Haha . Thanks . Then after that the fourth segment one guy there help me then fifth segment Instructor Leong and Karen help me and tadah ! I completed the low elements ! We played the wall after that . My arm got cut and scratch by the wood . Haha , Yuki so sweet ! Help me take med and plaster . Thank you ! Oh and I realized that 3e1 got loads of team-sprit ! Starting to like this class more and more . Lunch time ! After that we go changed into our wet attire ! Assembled and we went to the sea . The tide was high ... We started our third activity SAILING ! As usual we split into two groups and I was in the second group again . Haha ! Went for second sea walk with instructor Su Zhen . After that we played some games in the sea with Pei Lian and Hui Xin . Swap places with Mr Loh and Mr Wang . Haha . They help Ke Qi , Cheryl and I to sail . Sailing is difficult ! Poor Mr Loh and Mr Wang needa help us when our sail overturned 3 times . LOL ! After that I sailed with Karen again . Failure too . The wind was too strong . Took some pictures and we went to dap dry ourselves because our next activity will also be a wet one . But we will not do it in the camp site . Buses and Taxis came to pick us up form the camp site to another place . Cheryl , Ke Qi , Shu Hua , Pei Shan , Ru Huan , Kai Jie and I went off first in a taxi . Lucky got Kai Jie because the place there was so deserted . Reached there and we waited for the rest . There was a stream of water there and we started to throw stones . LOL . When the rest came , we set off to the other sea for our last activity of the day BOOM-NET ! We went in groups of eight from land to sea . Reached the boat and we waited for all our classmates to come over and we started ! We were suppose to jump from the second story of the boat to a net attached at both sides of the boat . LOL . I was quite scared to jump lar .. But those boys down at the net were very supportive and they conuted for me to jump . At the count of three I just jump from the second story . The feeling was damn weird . I won’t want to commit suicide by jumping . LOL . After that I jumped the second time the other side and I stayed in the net . Don’t feel like coming out anymore . When the boat moved , it was real fun ! The water was very salty ans very clear . After it ended , we were brought back to land . We were damn cold at the time because it was close to night . So we saw huge puddle of muddy water that was deep enough and very warm . Guess what ? We actually soak ourselves in there . Gross ? But it was really soothing ... The water was sea water la but it happened to be muddy becuase of the conditions ... There was a hole there and the sea water was collected there when there was high tide . When all our classmates arrived , we had to go . It was really very very cold . So we hugged together . Went off in a taxi and we reached Loola soon after . 15 min drive . We were not allowed to bathe at first and we had our dinner with soaking wet shirts . Grrr ... After that we ‘complained’ and we could bathe ! But the sad thing is , we used the time for our rehearsal of cheer to bathe and we could not practice . In the end , we managed to do the cheer too . Haha . We had CAMPFIRE for the night . Again , did our reflections with the instructors and we went to sleep . My arms ache a lot . Slept like a pig too . It rained in the night .

Day 3 ;

We missed the sun rise again ! Awww ... We were all too shag . Because we had 4 activities in a row the previous day . Anyway , we washed up and we met for breakfast . After breakfast , we went for our first activity RAFTING . Our team had 12 ppl . After we built our raft , we waited in the sea for the tide to come . Haha then that Houng Sheng say if our raft fail he will quit NP , and we did not succeed . LOL ! One of the barrel came off . LOL . Only the one that John tied was stable . Anyway , we dismantled all the parts and we went for our last activity of the day and the camp , HIKING . It was real fun . I was so close to nature ! There were loads of rocks and we had to help each other in climbing over . Saw a dead puffed up puffer fish ! Cool . It was decomposing and John actually tried to burst it with a coconut on the way back , but it did not burst . Packed up , met at the assembly hall and we filled in some evaluation form and our reflections and we had our 1 hour lunch . Ate 4 pineapples that day . No more sweet pineapples in s’pore . My tongue got cut by the pineapple . Haha . Took loads of pictures with the instructors and the scenery . After that we left Camp Loola and went to the Bintan Ferry Terminal . SAD . I missed Camp Loola !!! This time the bus was better . Haha . Reached , checked in and we waited for the ferry . The ferry was delayed for more than an hour . Bought Fanta . Haha , I remembered last time in Aussie I also drank loads of Fanta because we don’t have it in s’pore . Went in the ferry and we snacked our way . I slept as I ate the motion sickness pill . Shucks lar , I don’t even think I have motion sickness . The first time I felt like vomiting is because I didn’t like the ‘smell’ of the ferry . LOL . During the boom-net I also never felt giddy . So I ate the pill and I slept ... Sad , I missed a lot of snacking . Haha . Reached Tanah Merah and we checked out . We had to say Good-Bye to our instructors. VERY sad sia . So miss them . Especially Instructors Eaz and Su Zhen . So sad . Bidded them gd bye and we went off . Reached school damn late . Went home bathe and unpacked and sleep . So tired .

So miss the place and the instructors . I wished the camp was longer . Will upload all the pics as soon as Lihua , Shu Hua and Mr Loh send me the pictures . Ok . I took an hour for this post . LOL . Tata ~

Sec 3 camp is a MUST go ! It rocks ! You won't regret .
Missing Bintan , Camp Loola , Instructors Eaz and Su Zhen ...

Hi, my name is Samantha. I love travelling, reading and meeting people from different walks of life. This is a documentation of my life and my travel adventures. In a way, it is a homage to faded memories of mine. The memory span of a human being is short, hence the existence of these memoirs. Because fifty years down the road, I want to look back, smile to myself and say: "I've lived my life with no regrets."
