Hello everyone!!! I just came back from hall camp ytd! did not update for sometime le...so, this will be a reasonably long post:)

hmm..after participating 3 FOCs..these are some of the observations i have...

1) there is bound to be Amazing Race(AR)...i participated 3 ARs already. I think the most fun and well-planned AR would be the hall FOC followed by HSS FOC:)

2) "Nobody" is a song item that is sung in all 3 camp. u either do it as a performance item, sing for fun or to do it as a task in a game.

3) Food is 菜饭...all the time...but not for hall FOC! the food provided is super nice!!!if i did not rmb wrongly..

Day 1- 菜饭 with 3 料
- Bee Hoon with fish balls and hot dog

Day 2- Porridge with Youtiao!!
- fried rice with 2 chicken drumsticks
- BBQ!!!!satay, atah, hotdog, chicken wings, crabmeat and mee goreng

Day 3- i dont know because i was not around...i heard breakfast was 豆浆油条!dinner is at a pub-cafe called Blooies(?) and beer and drinks were provided. One of the GL treat me a cocktail! It is called Singapore Swing(?)!! i prefer that as compared to beer >.<

Day 4- Nasi Lemak (we need to eat more to have energy for AR)
- packed rice (Obento style)
- dinner at Golden Mile hawker center (to complete 食字路口 as one of the AR task)
- Mac's for supper ( we had a "Sleepless Night"! i had a few shaker fries:) )

day 5- bee hoon with fish cake and chicken nuggets ( i did not eat..too tired (z.Z) )

the food provided is superb!( for a FOC )

4) Fright Night!! HSS was held at sentosa...did i mention before my partner and i were the only pair that got lost? haha..despite all the scary NS paranormal encounters in the forest that i had heard of, i was not very afraid..but! the Hall one really freak me out...it was held at two buildings in Changi...somehow i got really scared...but thank God for His protection and my partner..i made it thru!!

5) Acting out funny advertisements as a performance item is very common. My OG was the only grp in HSS FOC that did adverts. In hall FOC, there are only 2(?) out of the 5 that did not do adverts for their performance. My OG for hall camp did a skit:) VISA, Heineken, Ribena-Lemon, M1 were the popular ones performed.

6) You can never escape "initiation".

HSS FOC- soy sauce + tomato + watermelon + milo powder + flour +w ater etc...

Hall FOC- milo + lemon barley + bread + carrot + cucumber + ribena + tomato sauce etc.= the spiritual drink X.X i almost vomited..

7) There is always SP and SP night...i did not manage to meet my Hall SP, i still missed the SP night after SS dinner outing.

8) All 3 FOC are held at chalets.

i think that is all...haha...

Today at church, the Youth Choir performed "How Great You Are" !!!Great Job everyone!! This is one of those songs that truly touched my heart and i love to sing it!! Congrats Bethany IPC!!!WE ARE DEBT FREE!!!YAY!!!WHOOO!!hee, Pastor Charlie is super happy today when he chaired:))

hmm, after that i went to move my stuff into the hall. sign, i still have more stuff to bring tmr..I truly thank God for placing me in the same hall as sui hui and yu wen!! it is so coincidental that we are in the same block and level too!!hee :)))

Lastly...HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!! i recited the Pledge at 8.22 pm! have you? :)

Till next time!!
