I shall continue with my adventure data.

Let me tell you about the night walk. Boy! It was fun. There is a story to it. Here goes...

All who go through the night walk are suposed to save POW's. They would set off doing a solo walk and end up at check point 1 in which their identity will be checked. It is to ensure that they are not illegal immigrants. They would then continue their journey to check point 2 where they will be assigned a partner in crime. This pair will move off to check point 3 where there are border guards walking around. They are supposed to crawl through 2 consecutive holes but if the border guard shines the torch at you, you have to go back to the start. The borderguards are xuanli, javine and my bro. After that, they will walk along a path leading back to the campsite. They have to go to the girls dorm to save the POW but they run the risk of getting caught by the security guards. Once they shine the torch at you, you will enter the TORTURE CHAMBER. So you LOSE!

Well, basically in the torture chamber, the GIRLS toilet, is a whole mock up. There are guys shouting and the girls screaming. I believe the sec 1 and 2's were really scared as they told me so. Being young and naive, they were terrified. But actually what they got was some shouting that left them confused like MONSTEROUS Randall asking them what was the last chapter of the geog textbook. LOL.. HOW would they know? So they practically will get water splashed at them. Thats all. =]

Yet another camp has passed. The Prefects and Pe Capt Camp. I gained a whole new experience. The experience of being the camp commandant. It is so different from what I've been doing. This time is on a large scale and I have the power to make decisions instead of previously asking Mr Lian for permission. WOW.

Wanna thank..
Teachers. For allowing me to come back
Jasmine. Thanks chio bu! Without you, I think I'd just faint from exhaustion
Hwei Ting. With goal setting, I think they have something to look forward to.
Camp committee members. Working ever as hard
Campers. For enjoying yourself, that I could enjoy as much as you did...

I know I will remember the memories of blowing the whistle till my guts were about to come out, sipping coca cola with jasmine in the air-con room, coaching my dad as we played cards in the command post of Jalan Batera campsite, asking around whose underwear got stuck in the tree at the girls dorm and of course not the unforgettable night walk.

We had a solo walk followed by a pair walk. This pair has to go and save POW's or not they would be caught to go to the torture chamber. Till later...

Ah! Half of what I am supposed to do for school is almost over. We've finished at least the proposal for the OGL war games. We do hope it is fun and enjoyable. The Sagittarius banner is done! The words encarved spell out Sagittarius Strike force. We took almost half a day to complete it. Really do hope it is up to the expectations of the teachers and students.

Then again, what are the expectations? Who sets the expectations? Man? God? Who is fair? I rather set my own expectations and meet them. Simply because when I win a medal, I am beating someone else's standard and the mark changes. It is set by man, thus it cannot be trusted. Soon, I begin to feel that reaching my own expectations is so much more exhilerating. Yes, people always set a mark that you should reach -- your parents, teachers, friends. Well, you decide who sets the standard and whose you shall meet...


Today, I met what I set off to complete. Lead climb the red overhang route and complete the green overhang route! I guess through all that hard work, I get to loose weight. Ernest's vow is to lead climb the roof. I'll post the pics the next time. Then, you shall decide on the difficulty of the route. So far only 2 guys can climb the roof (the name of a route) and he is one of them. ONLY 2! Imagine how hard that is. I dont even dare to try but I still did. Of course I didnt reach the top. He told me a very lame joke. Next time when he grows up, he shall name his son Ee Han. His surname is Teh. So if you put the first letters of his name, it reads TEH. His daughter shall be Teh En Hui. Spastic! Anyway, I sprained my knee again! It shifted when I was trying to do some move. Exercise shall remain untouched for some time. DANG! There goes tomorrow's floorball training. TIME TO RETURN TO MY BOYFRIEND. Collecting dust now. Books, here I come.

If there is a man I admire, one of them would be William Shakespeare. This is one of his poems. A reason why I also love lit class in Innova. The super fun h1 class!!

SONNET 116
PARAPHRASE
Let me not to the marriage of true minds /Admit impediments
Let no barriers hinder the marriage of 2 lovers who truly love each other
Love is not love/ Which alters when it alteration finds,
Love is not really love when it changes when the lover loves someone else. It means that true love is not supposed to change under any circumstances.
Or bends with the remover to remove:
When someone tries to lure the lover away or has left him, his love will still remain.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken;/
Love is like a rock, even if the storms brew, the rock still remains just like love. It will be unchanged.
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Love is like the guiding start to every lost ship
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
But the value of love is not treasured by us.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks/ Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Even when beauty fade or the lover dies, love will not be deceived by time. It shall remain steadfast.
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,/ But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
Love doesn’t change in death even though the marriage vows often state, till death do us part
If this be error and upon me proved,
If what he is saying is wrong and it is proven by him…(that means if he is unfaithful)
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
That means he would not have ever written such a thing and no one in the world would has ever loved. (His declaration of love)

I went climbing again yesterday to numb the pain. The braces kills. Arggh. Anyway, I got a chance to wear uncle Justin's helmet. It is the latest Petzl meteor 3. Super light till you can even forget that you're wearing a helmet. Not to mention, it's super ex. If you climbed before, I think you'd know the large difference between the yellow construction look alike helmet with this. Cool! Justin and I tried the grey route the whole night but because we were short, we couldnt reach the tile. Next week then! Anyone wanna come join? HT?

YAY! I've been offered to work at Justin's company too!! As a outdoor camp instructor. To get what I like to do and get paid...FUN FUN FUN!!
