Back from OBS camp

yeah!! finally!! im back home again!! i missed home alot!! i missed my family, my bed, my bathroom, my com, my TV, my sofa, my chilled yogurt drink..!! aww... during the 5-day camp, i was hoping to get home asap, to relax myself in all these ' luxuries ' i have now.

talking more abt the camp, well..the 5 days were tough, packed with tasks to be done within the strained time limit. and to CCHYSB pple, the camp is tougher than our own camp. be thankful for our 'relaxed' camp already hor..

ok..talking back about OBS, on the 1st day, we learned some basic tasks such as pitching the tent and cooking outdoor food( rice and maggi mee with very little dishes).

2nd is a much interesting day, because we are gg for a sea expedition!! kayaking for 10km i think, from one campsite to a 'unknown' land, it took abt 3-4 hrs. hands and shoulders were sore from the contionusly rowing of the boat. We only had powder bath, after all those pespiration from the kayaking, and we were damn stinky and sticky tt night, not at all suitable for sleeping. =(

3rd day, one of the day where my mood and spirit was very low, because we were going to for a expedition. It was a day so dreadful for me, because we have to hike/trek for around 10km of roads, with our heavy backpacks contaning all the stuffs and equipments we need for the whole expedition. Each backpack weigh 20 kg approximatly. Another restraint is that we had to complete the trek within 2 and the half hrs. And during the trek, i was like gg to topple over, with the heavy load pulling back down on me. Shoulders, arms and legs were further sored from the treking. It was more than exhausting, but i can't think of any word more impactful than 'exhausting'. We did high elements after tt, not too bad, even though our strength and stamina were drained off from the trek.

4th day, one of the slackiest day, there was a YJC challenge where 3 rafts and 2 launchers have to be built by selected pple, while the others have to play games and complete tasks to earn and raise funds to 'purchase' materials for the rafts. We did another treking, but it was in the night, and only a few km of forest trail. It was much relaxed than day 3.

Last day, everyone were in high spirits as all of us can't wait to get home!! We did some cleaning, cheers after tt, before getting on the boats and set off to Singapore mainland!!

From the camp, i learnt quite a few things that we have to apply to our daily lives; perserverance, endurance, appreciation to all the things we have now( our family, our bed, our home-cooked food, etc..)
