hey! several of my frens are talking abt the house com camp already. hmm. let me tok a bit. feel lyk putting my whole reflection on the blog but it's 5 page long when i type it in word document. i dunno why it's so long la. i din include some stuff. n u peeps ar...so terrible. esp glen n elaine. haha. write stuff abt me n victor in yr blog. haiz. hmm. wondering wad to write abt the house com camp to u peeps.... n i know this is a bit late but jus came back frm msia hols so yup. jus a brief one abt the camp yea?

DAY ONE: played basketball. finally got a chance to tok to charlene n li jian. though i'm not good at basketball, i jus did my best n play n have fun. charlene accidentally hurt her finger. hope it's okay now. good interaction! get to know them better!

the ice-breaker game by JC2s was fun!! worked wid ppl of other houses. cheer ppl on. run around. got carried by Glen. was willing la. since i'm so light. but thru this, realised tat there is a form of sacrifice. gotta sacrifice participating in the games. gotta bear the discomfort esp when Glen carries me lyk "fireman" as he calls it. it was so unglamarous when he put one arm in between my legs n carry me sideways. when i immmediately got onto him, i felt super dizzy la. lyk flying arnd n being swing arnd. when he was walking, i tot we were walkin backwards. tat's something tat i gotta bear. but sacrifices are neccessary at times when wanting to complete something.

In NUS, the station games were so-so. but i enjoyed the traffic jam game. having played this game many times since 10/11years old. i roughly know how to play the game. so working wid philicia, we guided the group. den Mr Ng came in n challenged us. i learnt the MOST thru this game. learnt to take up risk, challenge myself, believe in myself, not to be discouraged but press on to complete the task. our record?? 42seconds widout talking!!! woohoo! mr ng, u owe us one! through the other games/this wntire activity, learn to work as a team (i know it sounds TYS but it really is frm my heart) n got a chance to see how the JC2s work together =)

good debrief. learn n share alot. gain new perspective.

LOVE the in-house games by the JC2s. it was super nice working together. glad khalid cheer me on during core stability. dun really lyk it cos i got a weak back. sigh. n christine n i cheer the guys on when doing the push-ups. yay. work together as a team. ahha. plus the stoning pose. wanna get the pic from tiffany soon! chuan kai got kidnapped n we carried him down. it's interesting to carry chuan kai down. nice work LF!

Workshop for tat day was boring.

DAY TWO mass games. rained. bad. but ate several stuffs. shared the tasks. got 100 points for caterpillar. muddy n dirty. but good game session. nice talk at the canteen. talked to other house members. know them better. play games n chatted.

buy items at clementi. but several gals got distracted. not happy wid them. but bought the stuff anyway. sat wid the gals for dinner. cheryl, elena n i bought claypot rice n ate. i ate the most n natallie say i keep eating alot la. but din finish it. had good n nice chats as we tok abt the JC2s. nice.

trading ship wasn't very very nice. christine accidentally fell. was scary. glad the neck was okay after a while. the game was mundane. but the nicest was the in-house game by JC2 tat nite. it was totally IMPACTFUL!!

they takan us. but i was expecting it. there were rumors abt wad the game will be lyk b4 the game started. it really bonded us together. it bought us close together, taught me to look out for one another, to stand firm and stay close to one another. it was a great lesson tat i took back. indeed, after the game, could see tat the gap among us have closed up. we care more for each other. n i want this to continue too. i want 7th house com to stay united n stay close as ONE!!! yes! LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND!! thank you JC2s!

DAY THREE The challenge. celared up doubts on wad to say and we split up after we'd reached the orchard area. my area was at PS. and thankfully it was there. there were many ppl esp youngsters in the morning. for me, i'd done road survey b4 so it isn't really tough for me to approach ppl. but i think one tough thing is to make it interesting and attractive such tat ppl will go to the booth. tat's one thing. but overcome it.

indeed the presence of the JC2s were really encouraging! esp when seeing one whole big grp of them. but it also frightened the 2 ppl whom i managed to ask them to visit the booth. ha. there was once where we spotted one of our saints and he brought the whole grp of ex-classmates to see our booth. lol. raise the count by alot. another interesting thing is tat when i approached 2 guys and mentioned "i love you, thank you" campaign, he said, "wah. so soon? i haven't got to know u yet". lol. and another incident which Chrsitine personally encounter is a mother who din have a gd impression of SAJC but after seeing us, hope it'll change her mind!!

all in all, the whole challenge was good. we hit 135 ppl. tat's good. i feel it's a good experience. glad mr ng was there to give us suggestions n do short debriefs. aft tat, went to istana park n did reflection and write down who we think shld be captain and vice captain n reflect on other ppl's good and bad pts. some are quite hard to write. muz talk to these ppl more so as to know both sides of them. hope to grow closer to LF ppl. n of course the whole hse com!

this camp really makes me LOVE 7th house council! yeah! rockz on 7th House! we're gonna have a great time ahead!
