YA Camp 08 - Love God, Love Others

About a month before the camp, the RCT and the mentors were cracking our heads over the name of the camp. After plenty of weird, lame and simply CMI suggestions, we decided to just go with YA Camp 08. Then our t-shirt was made and frankly speaking, why on earth didn't we think of "Love God, Love Others"??

Anyways, the camp was quite fun. I'm glad the participants had fun. I'm sad that a few ppl couldn't make it.

Day 1
We had a slow start to Day 1 because of the late check-in time. But things picked up when we started playing the games.

And I found out that I am sua-gu queen!!
We were playing this game in our group: All of us will put our hands flat on the ground and go around saying sth that we have not done before. Others who have done that particular thing before will have to fold one finger in. After the first round, I realised that I was the only person who did not have any fingers folded in! In the end when somebody finally had all 10 fingers folded in, I only had 2 fingers folded! So that's how I became sua-gu queen.

We had a talk after that by Daniel Teh and it was quite.... entertaining? Haha. I can't believe all of us sat on the floor for more than 2 hours. I think I have not sat on the floor for so long since primary school.

Then we played Clu-do! Isaac got killed again!





Day 2
The Ubin day that I did not take part in. I know I should go learn how to cycle so that I won't miss out on these outings anymore. But I'm just so lazy! One of the groups had a great time wading in the mud while I was taking a nap and watching TV. Hahaha.

Talk that night was by Stanley.

Then we took a looong walk to the Changi Boardwalk and we did WUTS! It was fun! We really should do it again soon.
We also played campfire-y things like the Friendship Dance and Father Abraham. I can't believe the younger ones do not know the Friendship Dance! -_-

And then we did this mutual encouraging where we sat in 2 circles - inner and outer and rotated so that we can speak to different people, encouraging or simply getting to know each other. It was really really good. I think we all benefited from it. :)



I still don't know why, but I was still quite high after we got back to the chalet and all the other girls except Krystal had gone to sleep. But we decided to go to slp in e end. And found out that we didn't have space on the mattress(es) for us! So we forced Amos and Sam to give up their rooms to us. Wahahaha! OK, I did feel guilty then. I did! But... no choice right. =P
