FairField Methodist Sec2 Camp
TEAM ROTI PRATA :)
6-9 May 2008
Reach the school at close to 7.40am and met the student soon after, got class 2 D aka ROTI PRATA. It was quite easy to talk to them even before any introduction made. Anyway, it was quite a rushing as we had to take attandance then straight go up to the bus where me and my mirror Amanda start to know them better :)
There was nothing much on day1 beside just doing low elements and campfire prep. Night activity was boring with Blinds man walk but as usual I love doing the part on making the student walk by themselve and find their friend to let them appreciate their peers more. For my group, we had to kinda clean the toilet for the night. And yea, sentry for the night with Tammy , she was like super afriad of me telling her which hut was haunted.
Assembled at 7.30am for breadfast and headed for Belay School, and CRC. Belay school was held in CRC and I felt its better for E.F.I to do the BS but due to some complications, instructors got to do it instead. Seeing the weather was about to rain, I kinda delayed the start of CRC and I was right on spot, CAT 1. And had CRC change to the indoor rockwall instead. The process was relatively quick I guess, however, when Pavon was climbing, it brought the most applause and cheers. Charles belayed him while achorman was me before Tee Kun join me. And yes Dorothea is indeed a very determination girl,I remebered her crying and was prepared to let her down but she still want to climb and its the will in you, if you want to, we will help you.
Basically the mood was much lower and since the 2nd slot after lunch was cat1 again,the student make use of the time to do campfire prep again and it was quite worrying for Amanda and me because they were not too enthusiatic about it, they didnt know their role well and it seem far too long. Had kidnap at night ,Kent your clue are quite cannot make it. haha.
Had 10 over tries before getting the key and still came in 6th out of 18th.
3rd day was when everything change. It was much much better. Kayaking first and first Charles spoke to them and then after kayaking ,I left the group for awhile and thats when things change, they start to be more pro-active in what they are doing and did it as a team.
After lunch, they had abseiling and zipline and I felt there was one intellectual joke about Pavon coming down from the zipline. He was basically bouncing up and down and I forget who said this "wah, PAVON 3 Issac Newton 0" It meant he defy the gravity law done by issac newton for those who need explainations.
5.40pm -6.20pm was their wash up, they met me and Amanda at 6.30pm instead and I ask why so late, I heard they were not suppose to tell me but someone spilled the beans and told me they were practising their campfire prep instead and in this point of time, I was quite elated yet still compose. It was just part1, then 15minutes into dinner time, they disappeared again and I went to look for them, they were under hut3 reharsing again and I decided not to join them and till to the cheer part then I came in.
The performance was great, I didnt even know some dialogue that was on-going. It was simply awesome. I was quite touched when I saw the performance honestly. :P
To class 2D : Since day1,I told you I know you all have the quality to be a very very strong class and united one, you had the qualities but the questions come if you want or dont want but I'm glad the answer was WANT at the end of the day. The spirit you had were electrifying and it was shown even more clearly in the bus.
Thanks for the great time and I hope all of you will do well in whatever you do, take care always :) and thanks Amanda for the 4days3night ,it was phew weet to work with you :)
A few of class 2d :P HAPPY PEOPLE
