GREAT !
I survived GB camp !:D
Cheer for me , all:D
Lol , for those inerested , you can read the below post on my grandmother story on what happened during camp:D

13NOVEMBER:
Well , i woke up to find out that my mom apparently left home at 5.45am without waking me up . But , my sis told me apparently my mom woke me up and i jumped up of bed and grabbed my GB uniform from my hanger , then i groggily put it back on the hanger and dropped back in bed o.O

My fault here , thenn D: so i woke at 6.30am and chionged to change and stuff . Well , actually 10 minutes was all it took eventually , but you'll find out why later:D So i got to the bus-stop , yeah , took 88 to school .

Supposed to meet Huiwen there , but in the end she ended up being 30minutes late D: Then miraculously , after 30minutes , Cherie was at the bus-stop too ! She was waiting for Enreka to fetch her to church where the GB camo was , so we waited with Cherie:D And then Enreka's dad drove up to the bus-stop and we cramped at the backseat of the car , bags and all:D Hahas , thanks Enreka for fetching me there ! If not i would be lost and not know where to go D:

So we arrived at church , and Cherie andI were both guilty , cuz we kind of pangseh-ed Huiwen D: Then we both began to worry whether she was still waiting for me at the bus-stop . So when every single car and taxi came in , we were both praying and hoping that she would be in the car/taxi . And obviously she wasn't .

Then we tried to convince one another that Huiwen is clever enough to not wait for us anymore at the bus-stop . And when it was 8.30am , we were so worried and we began convincing ourselves once again that she was sick and at home and stuffs .

And finally , at 8.35am , HUIWEN RAN IN THROUGH THE GATE AND LOOKED FLUSTERED !:D Me and Cherie and all other Carrots were literally cheering , cuz Huiwen arrived 'on time' . Lol ! We were sooooooo relieved<3>

Oh yeah , dinner was FAB . We cooked our own dinner in mass-tins , and it was yummylicious . We tried cooking rice , but it turned into porridge . Better than being chao-tah and dry:D Lol , cleaning up was a little difficult , but ah well:D It was fun !<3

So yeah , we did drills in our uniform , badgework too , and eating lunch too . GRR . We were all dripping with sweat after drills . And apparently , our drills were not up to standard . Well , we were so rusty cuz they had only drills for us like once in a blue moon . And apparenty , our drill competition was in MARCH NEXT YEAR . and the Carrots will be taking part together with the sec 2s and 3s . BUT . We were going to Serangoon Garden Sec to do drills beacuse we were going to combine our drill competition team with our schools (only Carrots . Sec 2s and 3s are one team on their own) . We were going to combine with Serangoon Garden Sec and another school's GB . Well . And apparently , only some Carrots will be with the combined school's team (about 6-8 ? Or was it 9-10 ? Who cares -.-) . Yeah , then about 2-3 Carrots will be with the seniors . And 1 poor Carrot will be the reserved (aka not really involved in the drill competition) . I hope i won't be the one , though .

Well . We would be making new friends !:D WHOO ~ Anw , the first day sort of went through uneventfully , just that we bathed for only 3 minutes each . Cuz there were only 2 cubicles to bathe in , and 4 toilets (Male and Female toilets on the 2nd and 3rd floor) . And we had to do toilet duty (Group 2 , my group which includes Huiwen , Peiling , Simone , Vivienne , Fiona and Jing Wen , all LOVED<3>

There wasn't a single CLOTH OR MOP for us to mop up the water , so we had to use toilet paper . We had to dry-mop the sink , which was easy , and the hardest to do was the WET , FLOODING FLOOR . We had to get onto our hands and knees and use toilet paper to wipe up the water on the floor . Needless to say , we used up literally all the toilet rolls in the toilet .

I felt bad about mother Earth , cuz i destroyed one tree and more (i think) D: So yeah . We went to sleep after many hours of sitting on the floor and badgework and devotion . GRR , tiring for my knees . So we slept at 12midnight , but i fell asleep at 12.30 i guess . Though a carpeted floor , it was HARD . But a teeny-weeny bit softer:D

And we played MINESWEEPER LIVE ! Like , there were bombs on suqares in the floor , 15 bombs in all and 25 squares . FUN !

And at 3am in the morning , SHARP , graduated seniors burst into our room , hollering at the top of their voices :" FIRE ! FIRE !" .

Duh , it was a fire drill , so lame but so real:D Then we had to stumble down the stairs in our grogginess and the sleep clearing from our heads . And unluckily , my specs were still in my bag 10metres away , and we didn't have time to take anything , but just blindly run down the steps to the first floor . And my soes and socks were in my hands , cuz i wear shoes EXTREMMMMMELYYYYYYYY SLOOOOOOOOOWWWWLLLLYYYYYY . Lol . And my hair was uncombed , specs off .

And we had to run down the the church's MPH (Multi-Purpose Hall) to assemble , and Huiwen said everyone there including ma'am and seniors were half-asleep . Lol . We had to run up and down the steps , and they purposefully hid our group leaders (aka sec 3s , in Group2 , it was Vivienne who was hidden) . Then we ran like dunno how many times up and down the steps . And sweating , we were sent back to sleep at 3.40am . How tiring . And we were like , glad for the air-con .

14NOVMEBER :
After simple breakfast , like stacks of wite bread with topped butter , peanut butter and kaya at the side of the plate , and we had to peel our bread off and dip them in . And ofc , the famous diluted milo . Only this time , they apparently put too much condensed milk , and it felt like drinking hot water with condensed milk D: And after we went 15 rounds . 25 rounds to those who tucked in their shirts . YES , THOSE WHO TUCKED IN THEIR SHIRTS . They so nice , cuz a few of them tucked in their shirts amd the rest didn't , ma'am asked them whether we (never tuck in shirt) should be punished to run 10 rounds or those who tucked in shirt . And those who tucked in were freaking nice , they ran for us D: THANKS SO MUCH<3>

Lol , so we rehearsed like siao . And after lunch , the cher gave bad news : We had to get 2 members in our group to another group . How shittish . GRRR . And cher said that anyone who didn't go on that day didn't need to attend symposium any longer .

WHAT THE FUCK CANN ! If only I heeded rock's advice and pon , i didn't need to worry any longer bout symposium . GRRRRRR ! but it would be unfair to my group , to linrui , liya , jingying and jessica . So that's why i went , because of my conscience D: Lol , and i went back to church late .

So yeah . We had a murder game and i won't go into details , just that i wanted to thank the graduated seniors for organising that great game<3

And , the reason why at the start i said that i could actually dress into GB uniform in 10 minutes was because Staff Tay told us to do so , and we had to change fast , if not we had to undress and dress all over again , until we dressed in 10 minutes flat . Wow . SO in the end we managed to dress in 10minutes flat , all 30+ of us:D And they gave out ranks and badges and stuffs , and Carrots finally received their first 2 badges !<3

Sleeping time was uneventful .

15NOVEMBER :
Well , more drills , i guess , and ma'am and Staff were rather pleased at Carrots' performance . Anw , more badgework , and service , and cell time with other youths . And our cell leader was Stacia , a really sweet person:D She looked like she's 18 , but fact is , she's 25 ! SHE LOOKS SO YOUNG !:D

And we played games , and she kindly lent us her fone to let us call our parents . So yeah , camp debrief and BREAK CAMP ! HOME SWEET HOME !<3

We (Simone , Huiwen , Peiling , YuJun) and me duh , went to heartland mall . But we bade goodbye to Huiwen , who wanted to take 53 home . Then to YuJun . Finally , me , Peiling and Simone went to eat at the hawker centre near heartland mall .

NICE !

And so , we all went our seperate ways:D And i reached home safe and sound:D So i survived camp !<3
