TOPDOG! WHO LET THE DOGS OUT?! and and and, TRAPIZZA! ole, i finally got a job! (((:

hello. i'm back from LTC. learnt alot from the camp. the games are quite fun, well, seriously only some. some i just find it stupid and dun really like it. first day the worst thing, yet make our grp, TOPDOG have the greatest satisfaction is to walk from sch(dover) all the way to bt timah hill(bt timah). it was suuppppeeerrrrr far. there were times when i felt like giving up. the road just seem endless and my toe got blister. was very pain, every step i take was just like needle poking. but, we finally reached there. played some station games. one was leg reflexlogy. haha. hwee sheng carried me on his back. i think he thinks that he's carrying a hippo on his back. haha. i asked if he wants me to carry him instead. haha.

after station games, we even climb up to the summit. damn, it was really painful and tiring. grp mates were on the verge of giving up i guess. anw, went for lunch. it was the best meal i ever had. after 4 hrs of hunger and starvation, the taste of food was definitely heaven. haha. oh ya, midnight 3 plus, when we were sleeping in the bunk, there was suddenly fire drill. wah, everyone was shocked and we hafta run all the way down to the first floor to assemble and be in pumping position. when running down the stairs, i nearly fell. it was dark and i wasn't wearing my specs. pumping position, everyone did head count. the ground is those pebble kind, so it was very pain when our palms have to press hard on it to support out body weight. thereafter, went up to sleep.

second day was just about playing some games. can't really rmb. haha. then at night, we were blindfolded and supposed to walk ard with one another putting hands on the shoulder of the person in front of you. that time was alr 2 plus in the morning. everyone was very tired. haha. then the GP made us roll in some disgusting thing which smells exactly or even worse than rubbish bin smell. it was extremely smelly and we hafta roll 2 rounds in it. wtf. i really felt like crying when i was told to do that. the GPs were still laughing lo. wth. then after rolling, we again walk like a too-too train. then i fell asleep when i walk. hahaha. i didn't know i let go of the guy in front of me cuz i was dreaming alr. haha. then when i woke up, i was in the middle of the road. wttthhhh. hahaha. i peeped thru my blindfold, no one was in front of me. shiying was still behind me lah. imagine only the 2 of us at the road. haha. was soo lost, didn't know where the rest went. LOL.

third day was really tiring. super lacked of sleep. deprived man. then it rained, was supposed to have amazing race out of the sch. lucky it rained. haha. hate amazing race. practised camp songs and played some mass games. think the games for that day was quite fun. campfire that night totally rocks. was fun! we sang our camp songs loud and everyone tried their best to make it fun. cuz initially everytime when the GPs teach us camp songs, we all sang it very softly, they were very disappointed. so during campfire, we didn't want to disppoint kelvin(camp chief) and all the GPs that put in effort to teach us. at the end, we keep having 3 cheers for many ppl. haha. thereafter, we went to a classroom and watched horror movie. i didn't dare to watch lah, keep peeing thru the holes of my hands. lol. cuz we gonna have nightwalk and they want to create the atmosphere first-.-

when it was my turn, jane woked me up. haha. i was asleep when lying on the chair. walked with jocelyn then i was very scared. i keep putting my hand on my mouth in case i screamed out loud. then at the library there, we were supposed to split up and go diff routes. wah, i was so scared. then i walked to T5, my sch block there. course mates that time say seniors always see a lil boy bouncing ball at the second level. so when i walked, i was so scared i will see the boy. the whole building was dark. was damn scared. then was supposed to walk to the basement. there was very dark too and was there even had construction.

there was once i need to walk into a passageway. when i walked, i saw the GPs using handphone. haha. so wasn't that scared. but when i walked to them, they quickly off their phone and started to do their job. one started crawling towards me and keep saying ''dun take my shoes, dun take my shoes.'' wah, i started to feel scared then i asked them to let me pass but they dowan. it was dark, then i was afraid that i may step onto their hands. i stopped there for quite some time then was about to cry alr. then finally the one who crawled move back and i quickly walked past. just as i walked past, the handphone message tone come and they all keep lauhging. i turned back and, ''wah lau eh!'' made me scared for nth-.-

the next day which is the last day, have performance and all. billi banjah was fun. love it the most everytime when we break camp. it's CSCC culture everytime when camp ends. yups, went to satisfy our crave to drink bubble tea with wen long and genevie. and and and, went home to unpack my bag. after that went to have my bdae dinner at jack's place. bought a walnut coffee cake from Angie. thanks papa and mom for celebrating my bdae with me. althou it's super belated, but at least i get to celebrate my sweet seventeen. oh, i think i gonna buy S500i sony ericsson phone as my bdae gift. as in they buy for me lah. ole!

today i left house and headed to sentosa for my first day work. i left at 1030 and reached at 12.02. was late! urgh. was supposed to reach at 12 noon. my bus and train ran off, the shuttle bus went to tour ard the merlion there which i didn't know it will. hence, i'm late. reached there, didn't know wad to do. went to check in at the security counter at rasa sentosa hotel or izit resort? lol. got my voucher and went to change into my uniform. i looked so tiny in the uniform. haha. i didn't know how to go to trapizza. ppl direct me but i was still like a lost sheep. i ran across siloso beach and saw so many hunks playing beach volleyball lah. haha, so shy lah. wtf! lol.

finally, i reached and started work. they intro me to the menu and all. initially i memorised the table numbers alr but when the crowd came and everything started to get busy, everything went haywire. i forgot table numbers and keep serving to the wrong ones. my job for today was mainly to serve beverages. there was once when my tray nearly topple to one side. wah, scare my ass off man. the ppl there are nice, they helped me alot and i learnt alot of things, unlike ohsumi. at ohsumi i only serve but here, i learnt how to do the bill stuff. make new friends too (: nirosha, june, albert, kelvin, tommy and etc. they're nice to me. nirosha is a mixed indian and chinese. she can speak chinese fluently, so cool! and and and, we can drink whatever drinks we want there. haha. i drank coke, ice-lemon tea, hot chocolate and coke float. i really helped my myself huh. haha.

the chef also made pizzas for us (((: yummy! the chef asked what's my name. i said, ''melissa.'' he asked if there's shorter name, i said ''mel.'' ''huh? meow ah? orh, so next time i call you cat lor-.-'' wth! CAT! anything but not cat, it's my first enemy in life. hate it to the fullest. it must be honoured that i hate it. hah. okies, i earned ard 58.50 bucks today. not bad. shall keep it up and not be late. next week going ICE camp on wed and gonna work from fri to sun. sch reopen i will be working too but mostly on the weekends. but i'm kinda afraid that i can't cope it cuz with the projects coming up, i need time to focus on studies too. well, shall see how it goes (: nights



*from LTC, i benefitted a lot. not just about having fun. i learnt to have confidence in myself as a leader. a leader who knows how to lead the group need to have communication with the team mates, confidence and many things. in a grp, there's only one leader, if there's many, then who to listen to? i also learnt how to plan games. what are the things to consider, esp saftety. we should put ourselves in a GPs shoes, not campus. what's most importantly is, i dun think i've regret going this camp (:
