Yesterday came back from Camp Christine.
it was a long camp.
from 15 June to 18 June.
A 4 days 3 night camp.
the first day was very tiring in fact all the days are.
Day 1 was the pitching of tents,
building gadgets,learning of knots,hitches and lashings.
Day 2 was more on theory.
We learn on Roles & Responsibilities of Camp staffs,
Camp Programme Planning,
Quatermastering,
First aid in camp and
Planning for a campfire.
On day 2,our dinner was cooked by ourselves.
the dish was macaroni chicken soup.
the soup was a little bland lah but acceptable lh.
Day 3,we learnt axemanship and firelighting.
we did the chopping of charcoal wood and turfing.
after that we proceeded to outdoor cooking.
the outdoor cooking was to cook for our lunch.
we cooked honey chicken wing,chicken stew,chicken rice,apple pie and garlic bread.
I can say that that was the best meal of all the meals (: hahaha
after lunch was wide game.
it is something like amazing race.
Then we cooked our dinner which was fried bee hoon.
lastly,camp preparation and Campfire! (:
The last day which was Day 4,
we learned how to keep the tent and pack the tent.
and we dismantle the gadgets made on the first day.
and bout 1+ we left Camp Christine for the Guides House.
i think we reached Guides House at Bishan at 2+.
after being dismissed,went for lunch with Serning at Mac at Junction8.
Well,in this camp,although it was real tough like sleeping with mosquito flying,
red ants crawling,eating with grasshopper jumping,spiders crawling,nymphs flying,bathing with lizards crawling and dogs barking in the middle of the night,hahaha (:
but i learnt a lot from this camp.Learning things not taught during school guides meeting.
I also met a few new friends in my patrol and other patrol.
well we have stayed through with each other for 4 days and 3 nights.
it was a great experience (:

tht's all i think. won't continue cause it's very long alrd(:haha
