Hey peeps! It's been a long time since i post. haha. Well, been busy with preparations for the Malaysia trip and therefore, had to go for tuition for 3 consecutive days. T_T No time for me to rest at all. Where's my holiday??!
Anyway, Here's what I did for the sport leaders camp.
1st day --> Tennis, target shooting and, sport nutrition course
2nd day --> Kayaking expedition, Fencing, Discussion on modified game and played 2 group games
3rd day --> preparation of own breakfast in groups, off to cycling at pulau ubin and
team-building games, played 3 more games
4th day --> Run to pasir ris and back to school, paintball, pizza lunch( treat from teachers ) and
final briefing for the sport leaders
1st day
We were splitted into 5 groups of the olympic rings, Red, Blue, Black, Yellow, Green. I was in the RED group with 6 other members; Pei zhen, Vanessa, Agnes, Lionel, Aloysius and Marcus. ^^ Tennis was quite fun after all ? It did not seem as easy as it is in the machines. Team-ed with emil and won 2nd for the doubles and a coin pouch as a prize. Target shooting was a great experience for newbies like me. Those who played for the olympics were outstanding to be able to shoot that accurately. I shot 4 out 15. The girls are better shooters than the boys with scores between 6-9 How are we going to serve the NS in future. T_T We were supposed to feel proud as we were the first to be able to attend the sport nutrition course conducted by miss azlina. Water parade and lights out!
2nd day
Woke up early in the morning and had to do sprints which was like crazy. After that, had breakfast and went to kallang river to for an expedition. We kayak to the Singapore flyer and played some games. One of the games we did not complete was the one whereby everyone had to hold each other hands while standing on the kayak in the water. Hong shen and Azhar felt into the water twice. Later, went for fencing at Ubi, quite a remote area. Was damn pai seh as my pants tore halfway and thanks to mdm teo for lending me hers and helping me sew it back. =D
Learnt that i was too rash and not waiting for the right opportunity to come before attacking. Went to tmart to buy our breakfast ingredients. In the night, we played 2 modified games and won both!! ^^ Water parade and lights out!
3rd day
I guess the bball boys are the brainest of all. Let me explain! Our motto with breakfast was "Food that can make our stomach full !" and so, the bball boys bought ready to eat bread and cereal while the other group really put effort into making their breakfast. They were whipping up heavenly dishes which makes the teachers drool ( esp MR TAN ). Went to Ubin to cycle! Our group was called the Huskys!! WOOF WOOF. I felt it was kinda bored but lots of things learnt during the team-building games we played. At night, played 2 more modifeid games and organised one game. It wasn't that simple to organise games for people and we had a big project next year. To organise games for the whole school whole year round. So, it will be quite a big challenge for the sport leaders to face. Water parade and lights out!
4th day
Woke up at 4am to get ready for our most difficult challenge, the 8km run, to pasir ris and back to school. It was quite a feat okays! Imagine yr whole body aching and lack of enough rest and still forced yrself to run. We were unable to catch the sunrise, not because we were late but because pasir ris is geographically located somewhere you can't see the sunrise. =( Ran back with the desire of giving up. At the last leg, the bball boys sprinted back with all our might and Zhen yi and I managed to get 1st together. =) Watched a slideshow specially made by Mr teo zi ye to us followed by a award presentation to those that have been in the sport leader brotherhood for 3 years. I was in it and we received a polo T which I like very much !! Alot of sweat and effort put to get it! Had a final and proper cheer before going home. =D
