Back from Camp

I returned home from camp today.
I must admit, it was quite fun. Although, the food was sort of horrible. We did lots of activities like rock-climbing, build our own raft and night-walk. The night-walk wasn't that scary, we had to walk in a dark place with no lights and could not bring our torchlights. In twos, we walk into the "jungle" path, it was so dark that you couldn't really see your friend. Some of the lucky ones saw fire-flies.
One the first day, we slept at about 12 to 1 plus, me and my friends were about to sleep when the teachers called all to get out of their tents. The reason being, it was already lights-out but many people were still talking and walking. I slept quite badly, I kept waking up.
The second day, my section first activity was rafting. Each group had to build their own raft. But every group's raft didn't even manage to get into the water. The rock-climbing was difficult. My nails became rough because of the "rocks". We had a camp-fire that night and sang lots of cheers and songs.
The bathrooms were small with no hooks to hang our clothes and we rushed through our bath. Worst of all, all the toilets cannot be flushed. We heard that the boys' bathrooms had no curtains, which means they were "bathing for all to see".
We were all discussing what we were going to do the moment we got home. Most of us wanted to take a long, long bath and had some proper food.
Many of us were sun-burnt. My hands and face were all red and hurt.
I was glad to be back after two days without proper bath and food and computer.

Updates

1 more week before school reopens, and then it will be the Sec 3 Camp. I dread this day. There are still some homework I didn't do, like the English book review. The book is really boring.
I have enjoyed myself during this school holiday. I played lots of maplestory and neopets and at last, I bought the books I always wanted. These are the books I bought, The Princess Diaries Sixsational by Meg Cabot and The Frog Prince by Gillian Mcknight. I went from bookstore to bookstore in search of these books, and each time I was disappointed.
But now, they are mine. I've already finished the books.
Going to enjoy the last few days of my holidays.

Special day

Today was a special day. It was our duty to mend the stations in Zoolympix 2006. No adults were there to help us, just us, a bunch of Sec 3 students. My station was the Cheetah Catch-Up. I mended the station with two other friends. Besides explaining the game and rules, we also must sell posters. We sold a lot of posters which costed 1 dollar. However, we only managed to sell 1 goodie bag, as many people already bought it at the registration counter.
Many children came to play at our station. To participate in Zoolympix, you have to buy the goodie bag which contains an activity book. There are six stations to complete.
It was an enriching experience for us, because we have to approach strangers to buy posters and explain the rules to them. We also did a lot of complaining, about how we could have stay at home and watch TV and play computer games instead of "wasting" our time here. We came to the Zoo at 8.45am and the program ended at 4.15pm. We were all very tired at the end.
On Thursday, 8th June, we did a SPH Wildlife Buddy Media Launch. We have to buddy up with little kids to explain about aquatic animals like the sea lions. It was hard talking to them. The media was there to interview some students. On Friday, I had a nice surprise, my picture was in the newspaper. Although, it only showed the side of my face, I was really pleased.
Take Care

Updates

This is the second week of the June holidays. I have just started doing my homework. First week was mostly for extra classes and computer games. Now, I still play but not that much. I am worry that I may not be able to complete my homework on time.
About two more weeks before school reopens, and then is camp-time.
