waitin and waitin for the photos to become available for posting...but well...still not yet ready...but shall just go on and write about Sports Camp 2007 first!

this was the first FOC that i attended...so was pretty unsure of what to expect etc...but everything turn out quite well! I totally enjoyed myself and the company of new frens that i made...

30/06/07 - Pre-Camp
this special session was set aside by the MOMO (name for the management and organising committee), so that all the lame ice-breakers that supposed to be played on the first day can just be skipped...so went for this pre-camp-cum-dinner...

met up with wanxuan my OGL @ city hall mrt there and met up with my group...KURO! we were introduced to the theme of this year's camp...secret society...so our house was YAKUZA! the other houses were The Gangbang, Sopranos and 白莲教 (Bai Lian Jiao)...our sister OGs were Yaro and Zaro...=)...did some introduction and walked all the way to TCC near SMU for some ice-breaker games...hahaz...then our dinner, Canadian 2-4-1 Pizza, came and we had a quick dinner before moving over to the open space near the Cenotaph for a camp-level briefing...and then the night was over!

02/07/07 - Camp Day 1
first day of camp! reported for camp @ MPSH 2...dressed in my house colour...RED! hahaz...met the rest of my OG who could not come during the pre-camp...and played some ice-breaker games...as well as learn cheers...hahaz....after some introduction by the MOMO to the camp...the day's activities finally started! =)...first up was pool games! played several games at the NUS pool...as well as had some dive try-outs along the pool...hahaz...tried out this life-guard surfing board that was quite cool...but also picked up 3 injuries...on the first day! argh...

after the pool games...we had a session for introduction to the various martial arts available in NUS...that was quite an eye-opener and also quite interesting...hahaz...although it was about 9pm liaoz...but the night was still young! we proceeded with the night games all the way until 3am! hahaz...the games were quite fun...got steamboat mu tou ren...tissue papoer volleyball...paintbrush sumo wrestling...pass the items etc...hahaz...loooooong day...a longer day ahead tomolo!

03/07/07 - Camp Day 2
the highlight today is primarily the various sea sports try-outs! first stop was @ kallang SSC...but before the place open...we played some games there...and our house ic, jamie...was dared to do a SUPER DUPER CRAZY forfeit for some pts for the house! and he did...shall not describe it here...might be revolting to some...=P...tried out dragon boating and kayaking @ kallang there before proceeding for some soccer fun @ the Cage...hahaz...a little no link...but who cares...it was fun!

after lunch, we went over to east coast SSC there for windsurfing! it was a long long time since i last windsurfed...so it was quite fun to try it out again! hahaz...i still can survive larz...unlike last time when level 1 course...the wind was crazily strong lorz! hahaz...after trying out the activities there @ east coast, went back to NUS...

had the SP session for 1 hr like that i think...before proceeding with the mass dance session...the dance was choreographed by one of my OG councillor, yijun...then we all rested for an early night! =)...

04/07/07 - Camp Day 3
today is sentosa day! it was a nice and sunny day...time for all the various beach games! the games that we played were fun...dumb...disgusting...hilarious...etc! and the forfeits that came along with it was crazy too! wahahaz...the day activities all cumulated in the telematch that we had...but i think all the groups totally enjoyed the day activities...after every thing...it was time to wash up and get ready for SP night!

during SP night, there was the reveal...then was the buffet dinner catered for us...then came the mass dance on the beach itself! after this...the councillors led us into this room where they screened movies while they dispatched the SP couples for the fright night...personally the fright night was not that scary larz...hahaz...maybe it was just me...but at least the councillors managed to scare the girls...after the long night...it was time to get back to school...reached at about 2am plus back @ MPSH 2...after the briefings and wash-up...finally got to have some sleep @ 3am plus...

05/07/07 - Camp Day 4
had some land try-outs...had archery...aerobics and followed by floorball...should have more activities coming up one...but the rain came...and i missed the canoe polo try-out! argh...sigh...spent the rest of the morning playing games inside MPSH 2....hahaz...

today is the start of the amazing race! hahaz...after all the briefing...we were introduced to our first puzzle...that really stumped us...and slowed us down alot...after solving it...we headed to the student lounge @ YIH for a pool challenge...and got the clue to our next destination...guess what...climb adventure!!! i was just here on sunday! hahaz...but there was a huge choke point here as only one group can do the climbing at any one time...so some minor glitch here...did some climbing on my lousy pair of asics shoes and moved on to the next place...snow city! wahahaz! it was super cold inside! but i had alot of fun sliding down the ice slope! wahahaz! wheeeeeeeee! after that we went straight to HomeTeamNS @ Bukit Batok for some air rifle shooting! wahahaz...this amazing race is really some fun-packed! hahaz...

after the air-rifle...we rest for dinner before heading down to the DHL Hot Air Balloon...there...2 of our group would be viewing a number that the rest of us formed using cyalume sticks on the ground...we rushed straight to east coast soon after to clock in our timing for the first leg of the race...hehez...after some rest...it was time for night cycling! starting off from east coast...we went for some supper @ geylang...eating the famous 豆浆油条Dou Jiang You Tiao...and something funny happened along the red light district because of what one of my councillor michelle said...super diaoz then! hahaz....after geylang...we headed to suntec for some K-Boxing! Guess wad time it was...2am! and there were groups and groups of sweaty guys and gals singing crazy in the rooms! how cool was that! wahahaz! =P...after K-Box we went to the Supreme Court, Registry of Marriage, and the statue of Sir Stamford Raffles @ Victoria Concert Hall, before the open area underneath Esplanade Boulevard...after that...we cycled back to Costa Sands to catch some much needed rest in the Costa Ballroom! Along the way, one of my councillors fell asleep and crashed into a drain...fractured his pinky in the incident...sigh...

06/07/07 - Camp Day 5
woke up inside the Costa Ballroom after 2 hrs of quick napping...and got ready for the 2nd leg of the Amazing Race!

the first station was Ski 360...where some of the group would be pulled by the rope and having to communicate letters to those of us by the shore to get a word...after that...we cycled all the way back to Kit Runners...drop off our bikes...and proceeded to cineleisure there...at the *scape park...i tried out the mini dirt bike! super fun! hahaz...but think i would want to stick to 4 wheels...for now...bleahz...our next stop was SAF Yacht Club...for some banana boating! hehez...achelli...everyone from the group supposed to have a go at it one...but...due to time constraint...only 5 from our group managed to have a try...and we were off to our last stop...queenstown swimming complex for a confidence jump...but...due to time constraint again...our last stop was cancelled also...so we headed back to NUS...in the end...we were to 3rd grp back to sch and had time to bathe properly and change into our pyjamas for the pyjamas theme party!

we proceeded to xPlosion @ the NUS Guild house for the Sports Camp Bash...hahaz...the pagaent was quite long and draggy...after the pagaent ended...the party finally started...our house opened 2 bottles of bacardi to mix to drink...the deejay that night was not bad...so in the end had quite a fun night of partying there...albeit to little space...hahaz...left xPlosion @ around 3 am like that to head back to MPSH 2 for some rest...

07/07/07 - Camp Day 6
the last day of camp started quite late because of the late night that everyone had during the bash yesterday...once everyone was up...we had dinner and got ready for the last 1/2 day of activity! we had Olympic Games...which consisted of a couple of games...namely 4-way Tug-Of-War amongst the 4 houses and Push Ball. Push Ball was super violent...for those of u who know what i mean...cos people were simply just throwing themselves onto the giant ball! hahaz...but luckily...no one was injured and Yakuza won! Hehez...during the prize presentation ceremony...there were a few laughs because of the prizes that was given out...

Best Councillor
Most CB Councillor <----- (2)
