"The greatest Gift,
in the end
was a family
and a Friend.
A ear to lend
a hand to hold,
and you,
my Friend -your heart of gold."

I'm so sorry for the lack of updates, but work has kept me busy, and I never knew that work could be so much worse than studying. I can't imagine working for the rest of my life!! Yet, if i don't work now, I somehow don't feel really good. It's like, everyone else is earning money, and you're not. More to the point, it's a, I just have to join in the 'fun' kinda thing. Anyhow, it's ending soon, and I'm not sure if I'm glad or not.

I just came back from pharmacy camp, and I had the blast of my life! It was really the highlight of my holidays. I just had so much fun! It an amazing experience, and I must say, I'll have to thank the camp for giving me this opportunity to actually exercise. Throughout the entire camp, since day 1, it was run, run, run!!

For the amazing race, we ran throughout TAKA! It was hilarious. There was this security guard there and he gave us a warning, "Eh, CHILDREN! This is not a playground okay. Don't play catching here." We were like, children? ALAMAK! T.T That security guard must not have kids. Worse, we went to botanical gardens, but we were way behind time, thus, we had to run all the way to the main entrace from the main road, and all the way through the garden to the $5 tree! It's not a short distance okay! I'm so proud of myself. Haha!

After the amazing race, we were throughly wiped out, BUT! we still had night games at night, and it's the coolest game of the camp! It's termed, CURFEW. It's such an interesting game!! It was running here, running there, sweating and getting wet with green bean soup. It's hard to describe the game, and it would take a long time to describe, but GOODNESS! It's an amazing game. I think the number of people that we have, about 50 plus or so, was just nice for this game. At the end, I had green bean soup, chocolate, condense milk poured all over me. Oh yeah! not forgetting the flour. Such a thrilling game.

After the game is finished, it was quite late into the night, but we still had to discuss our campfire item. In the end, we slept at 2 plus, and woke up at 7 plus the next day. The next day, we had games at Changi beach and it was run, run, run again!! It was much fun and laughter, nonetheless. Haha. I think I'm either very clumsy or guys are super rough. While playing captain's food, similar to captain's ball except that the ball is a fruit, guys kept banging into me! Honestly, I was just standing there, when WHAM! Whoah, and I fell. =.=||

There was also this game, the tree legged soccer race. It was a good game, but a super tiring game! It's hop, hop, hop! And I had to hope on my left too!! 'Cause the guy had to kick the soccer ball with his right foot, and you know what? Eveytime he kicks, he loses his balance!! and since he is grabbing onto me, when he falls, I will fall with him too. =.=|| Imagine the number of times I fell!! After the game, my whole ankle became swollen since the cloth was too tight. T.T

Still, the games did not end there, at night, it was games, games, games!! We had this frightnight and they were so pro! They chose this chalet, right behind Changi Hospital and totally did a great job turning it into a haunted house. The effect was truly amazing. I really must applaud the seniors for their hard work! It was an eye-opener. Really. In the end, we ended sleeping at 4 plus since we had to yet again, discuss for campfire night. What time did we wake up? 7 am. We are so pro. =D

The next day, it was a scorching hot day at Sentosa beach. Can you imagine? Our lack of sleep, equipped with fatigue and aching muscles, yet we still had to run around sentosa under the super hot sun. Seriously, the sun was exceptionally hot that day!! But the fun we had! Simply exquisite.

At night, it was campfire night. Basically it was a time to laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Really entertaining!! Thereafter, we went to Changi Village since it is going to be our last night. There were lots of entertaining figures at Changi, which I suppose you guys should be able to guess. We ate supper there, took a walk by the beach, before heading back to the chalet and played games throughout the night. In the end, we slept at 5 plus, but this time, we woke at 8 plus, so it was much better.

The last day is basically just checking out day. SO SAD!! I am going to miss everyone! MY entire OG: ZIP ZAP! All the people at the camp, the seniors, the fun, the laughter, the feeling of being shacked together. There's so much memories!!

I am so glad I went for the camp. I must really thank the people who organised the camp, the seniors who brought much live, laughter and fun to the camp, and the weather for being so kind, and lastly God for being so nice to me. Okay, I'm stil quite zonked out from the lack of sleep. Signing off for now.

"A lifetime can be likened to a lonely beach of sand.
a stranger makes a mark one day, an imprint of a hand.
As time goes by the beach once clear is now a cluttered field
of memories and keep-sakes of the ones that we hold dear.
Time does its best to wash away remembrances of those -
the ones we never meant to meet - the ones we never chose.
But as through some odd twist of fate these are the ones we cherish.
The time we spend with these such friends, will never, ever perish"
