Well, at last i am back to the civilsation world again. Yesh. Obs... was tough but it was dam fun afterall. I have great times with my camp mates. So i shall start from day... 1 wait!! happy readin :]
Day1....
First day was the slackiest day ever. We packed our store items, collected food of 5 days. We also introduce ourselves. Duh...By the tym we finsh, it was in the noon. We went for kayakin, well it was my first time learning how 2.. It was kinda hard on the first day. i got hard time allowin my kayat to move straight. Time pass really fast. It was about evening, instructor taught us how to pitch a tent. After tat was cookin. All this was realli fun.. Becus u cant realli get to do this at home. After our lunch we went to have a bath. The water was cold.....Follow by a debrief. we went back to our tent and slp.. It was sweet slp as no insect has invaded our tent. however one of my teamate snore..hahah and tats was joey. But it wasnt very loud anyway... so i manage to enter my dream land.oh ya b4 tat we listen to some of the of the ghost stories from our members too.
Day2
Sec day, we moved most of our daily needs to another bag pack they gave us. It was big... very very big.. we brought 5 days food along and 2 huge water bottles. And it was kinda heavy.. i bet it was more than 1/3 of my weight. So sec day was the first hikin trip. We move from camp site 2 which was where we landed on the first day to camp site 1. Camp site 1 was perfect.. The facilities was almost twice better than the previous camp site. The toilet, the food and mani more...We walked fer bout 30mins to another camp site. It was kinda far... there will lot more campers stayin there too. But they are residential campers, and we are not. We are groups of campers movin around the island. wakaka.. OOps after that i forgotten what we did....shall skip to day3 den.
Day 3....
Day three.. was some high rope elements activities, i guess so. It was hot in the morning as well as the noon.. We habe bout 2- 3 hrs on it. Oh ya. we got 15 members in our group. A group is also known as a watch. We finsh the activities in de afternoon and haf our lunch.. our last meal before we move on to another site. We pack our bag pack and set off. We travel without any help. We can only have the map as a guide to our route.. and obviously with compass 2. On the way... some members has to count the number of step we had walked so we can estimate how far we have travelled.In another word it is called pacing and in pacing, 65-70 steps is about 100m. Third day hikn trip was tough.. we had to cut thru forest, reach the peak of the hill. We need to reach a few check point. One of it was a tombstone. In the forest, there alot of insect, thistle and mosquitoes. After all the endurances we reach our destination. A quarry site, a place surrounded by trees and water. Worst still no toilet. -_- Night was soon.. we pitch our tent and went to cook. There was no light and we got to use torch light to cook.It was quite fun afterall. hehs. After dinner, some ppl went to wash our utesils usin seawater and sands... After tat me and moi frends play stones. We aint childish kay. We decided to see who could let the stone jump on the surface of the water more numbers of tym. However day3 was not yet to be over yet. We still got to smash our metal can into a small flat piece of metal and burn it to ensure that it was dry. And u noe wad!! we saw firefly, only one... i manage to caught it in my palm. Woah it was magical... nice... it butt could give off lights. The firefly flew off after tat.. B4 we slp, there was a briefing on wad we got to bring onto our kayak. So day 3 was quite a long day
Day 4....
sec last day.. we woke up at 5.15... my internal clock did work well, i manage to wake up early every morning. we unpitch our tent immediately we woke up and pack our bag. day 4 was the biggest challenge. We got to kayak around p.u which was bout 20km to our campsite 2 which we settle down in day 1. We started kayakin at bout 8.am. i thought today was goin to be a bad day cus i have not realli learn noe to kayak.. Luckily on that day itself i learn it... wow i could go realli go fast.. hahahs the navigator was fast too... leavin some of the ppl behind.we go realli far.. i brought lotsa food inside my life vest pocket. Orange, fruit bar, biscuts and lot more.hhahas was quite full. We reach frog island in the afternoon.. There was lot of seashell and corals.. i collected some but in the end i lost it. So sad... After our lunch at frog island we continue our journey. Wow this time round endurance comes in.. we got to use most of our strenght kayakin.. sometime against the strong current... and sumtime ppl crash onto u.. hahaha was realli fun. Reachin the destination was the greatest success, cuss i thought i was not able to kayak properly.. after reachin we still got to carry the kayak back to shore for a wash.. and it was like immediately. I could feel tat my backbone is goin to break any moment... wads more... the leader keep shoutin for us to move faster.. i feel like givin a punch onto their idiotic faces. i almost fall into the big drain sia.. the path was like so small lorr. luckily i got gongfu arr.. hahah kddin. Anyway we manage to wash all our item and put back into the store.. was quite tedious. I ate away all the leftover food as i was so dam hungry. Even a flat squash bun look nice to me. Almost the last atom of my strength was use away...by then it was night time.. was a bit suay.. it was raining, and our tent was like floodin and we cant sleep lor. So we got to move under shelter and slp. The last night was very cold, but i still had a nice sleep.zzz...zzz..
Day 5
It was the last day... yeah. It was time fer breakin camp..our instructor checked our store items
and alot of item were missin. NO CHoICE... either we look for it or we pay fer it. so we went lookin for lot of things. Hehehes we manage to find and trade back every single thing lost. So we didnt have to pay for anythings. all thanx to the huntins from our members. thanks guys. Without them, i wun be able to buy OBS tee shirt liaos.hehs. i spent 31 bucks on 2 shirts... Soon the mixture of sad and happy atmosphere came in.. we were happy cus we can go home, sad cus we miss our frends and this beautiful island. Wad didt left us was memories.. yea, memories...
After this camp i learnt lot of new skills..and thks fer readin. hahahas take care COOK members. U ppl rawk!!!!!!!! Muahhaha.
