Cliffs of Dover

Heyho.

I'm bored.

As usual.



Anyhoo, so starts things off, softball training was as usual. Coach didn't come, so we played a match. Lost, terribly! It was the first time I played as a first basemen so wasn't quite sure how it worked. After training I went home and slept slept slept. Woke up for dinner, and here I am writing this now.

There was a Cambodia briefing last saturday, it was cool. Met up with the rest of the krew and started chatting/discussing/presenting. I'm supposed to lead singspiration next Sunday. Sooooo, yeah. Hope it turns out alright.

Speaking of leading, I lead campfire last friday night. It was alright, but the campers (consisting of BB boys and GB girls) were like so damn stoned and un-enthusiastic in the beginning. I was like, " okay, I'm dead meat", cos all the BB officers and GB officers were there also. Soooo I decided to teach them some cheers I learnt in school (can't be helped right!). Yup, taught them superman cheer (my favourite) and We Will Rock You. The Superman cheer really made them high and all that, cos at the end of the cheer they have to go like, "WE AREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE", then I purposely made them shout super duper long and when they had to shout their school name (in this case it was Hillgrove), some of them shouted "SENG!". So they shouted " Yum Seng!" Haha. That really cheered them up, which was cool. Then at the end of the campfire everyone was high and all.

But before the campfire started, things had started to go horribly wrong.

You see, the camp was at CDANS ADVENTURE CAMP, the new camp thingy that CDANS built. That's at Bukit Gombak area, for the uninitiated. Andddd yeah, it was raining cats and dogs. In this case, it was raining dinosaurs and goliaths. So the FIT instructor who tried to cut our firewood with a chainsaw (which failed) suggested that we conduct the campfire indoors. He taught us how to do a campfire indoors which was kinda cool because very few people had actually done one indoors (I bet you reading haven't had one too!) Yup.

And before it rained, we were sent to go collect our fire wood supplies, which was at Lorong Halus. That's near Punggol, for those unenlightened. Heh. You see, we only ordered 2 bags of firewood and a can of kerosene, so we had to pay an extra $20 if we wanted them to deliver. So I went with Marcus and Lionel, who had a scolding from Mr Yan because they had golden hair and Statue of Liberty hairstyle. So we sat a cab all the way there. The taxi driver was chatty and friendly. So he drove us there, taking the expressways. If we went on CTE and PIE, we would had went on all the expressways in Singapore. Uh-huh.

Then when we reached there, it was super ulu. It's like those dumping grounds with full of sand and dirt. Most of the companies there were selling sand and there were those gigantic mounts of sand everywhere. We managed to find the place and drove back. On the way back, the taxi driver was asking us how much we paid. I told him $70. He then told us how the price and standard of living had gone up. He told me that he remembered having a class outing and they had to pay only $2, and they would pay for their lunch, transportation money, games, prizes and an apple, water. Funny he mentioned an apple. Kinda reminds me of those retro days where they would chill at parks and dress funnily, prolly in the 1970s. Heh.

The trip to and fro was $38.XX. I forgot how many cents, but the taxi driver only charged us $35. Hehe. He was really kind. Yeah. So we actually made a lost of $15 because they wanted to charge us only $20 but we spent $35, plus 3 manpower.

Tomorrow, Valerie and Zi Hong and the rest would be going to Australia as part of the UWA session. Yulin would be coming back from Thailand tomorrow. I would be slacking at home, probably sleeping. Hurray!

Okay, enough of typing, have a nice night!
