THE LAST DAY OF CAMP FINALLY ARRIVED!I PREVIOUSLY SAID THAT WE ASSEMBLED AT THE "GALAXY" RIGHT??? SO WE ALL OF US GOT THERE WE DID OUR 5BX AND PACKED OUR STUFF. A VAN WAS THERE TO TRANSPORT OUR BAGS TO CHURCH BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOT TRANSPORTING US, SO WE HAD TO COUNT ON OUR TWO LITLE FEET TO BRING US TO CHURCH. THE COMMITEE SAID THAT WE WIL BE LIKE THE SLAVE FROM EYGPT THAT WAS SET FREE BY MOSES AND HEADING TO THE "PROMISE LAND" 'EYGPT' WAS THE OUTWARD BOUND AND 'THE PROMISE LAND' WAS CHURCH. SO WE TRAVELLED IN THE HOT SUN ALL THE WAY BACK TO CHURCH. BUT YA RIGHT LIKE THAT'S ALL. WHEN WE WERE NEAR THE SANDCASTLE PLACE IN EAST COAST PARK, THEY ASKED US TO DO SOMETHING CALLES THE ARTTY WHEN THE LEADER SAYS ARTTY,ALL OF US HAD TO LIE ON THE FLOOF FOR 5 SECONDS AND THEN STAND UP AND RUN FOR 7 SECONDS.AFTER A WHILE, THEY ADDED SOMETHING IN, IT WAS THAT THEY WILL LIKE SAY SOMEONE'S NAME AND THAT PERSON WILL GET LIKE INJURED SO THEY HAVE TO FIND SOMEONE TO TO PIGGYBACK THEM WHILE... GOTTA RUN WILL CONTINUE LATER BYE!

IT WAS TIME FOR US GOPERS TO TRANSFORM A LEAFY CANTEEN TO A BRAND NEW SPECK AND SPAN PLACE FOR THE GOPERS ADULTS TO COME TOGETHER AND WATCH THE PERFORMANCE THAT WE HAD PUT TOGETHER FOR THEM.WHEN THE PARENTS AND GOPERS CAME TOGETHER, WE SPLIT OURSELVES UP INTO DIFFERENT GROUPS AND STARTED PLAYING A GAME. AFTER THE GAME, SOME PARENTS WHEN TO TAKE A BATHE AND SO DID THE GOPERS, WELL FOR MY PARENTS, THEY WHEN HOME TO BATHE THEN CAME BACK. MY PARENTS ATE THEIR DINNER AND WHEN MY BROTHER AND I ARRIVED AT THE TABLE,THE QUEUE FOR FOOD WAS SUPER LONG, SO WE DECIDED TO WAIT FOR IT TO LESSEN. BUT IT WAS GETTING WORST SO WE WENT,AUNTIE AYELAN SAW US AT THE END OF THE QUEUE AND BROUGHT US TO THE FRONT SO THAT WE COULD EAT WITH OUR PARENTS.AFTER EATING, IT WAS THE SHOWCASE TIME, EACH GROUP HAD VERY UNIQUE PLAYS AND I MUST SAY ALOT OF OUR GOPERS ARE GOOD AT ACTING WELL.. TO ME LAH. WE HAD A SERVICE THAT WAS AGAIN INCREDIBLE BUT MY PARENTS HAD TO LEAVE EARLIER CAUSE THEY HAD TO WORK THE NEXT DAY.MOST OF THE PARENTS STAY BEHIND THOUGH...

ON THE SECOND DAY MY CHURCH FRIENDS AND I WOKE UP AT 6:15 AND YOU KNOW... BRUSH TEETH AND GET READY AND WATEVA. ASSEMBLED AT 7:00 WE HAD TO DO THIS EXERCISE OF THE 5BX WHICH I DID NOT KNOW WAT IT IS.. SO.. AS TIRED AS EVERYONE WERE WE HAD TO GO TO THE GALAXY TO DO IT. FIRST WE STARED WITH THE PUSH-UPS THEN THE CRUCHES AND THEN JUMPING JACKS.. IT WAS VERY TIRING AND ALL OF US WERE SWEATING,OK,I'LL SKIP THE BREAKFAST PART AND GO ON TO THE WATER BOMB GAMES! AS YOU KNOW, I'M KINDA SCARED OF GETTING HIT. SO ON THE FIRST ROUND I WAS THE "ATTACKER" NOT A VERY PROFESSIONAL ONE...BUT WHO CARES!MY TEAM DID NOT WIN THOUGH...BUT WE HAD FUN! BUT THAT'S AT LEAST WAT I THOUGHT... HAHA!!JK
THEN THE COMMITTEE CHANGED THE GAME A LITTLE.THERE WAS NOW 2 GRPS SO THEY CALLED IT KINGDOMS, SO IN OTHER WORDS 2 KINGDOMS:)AND THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HERO IN EACH TEAM.WITHIN THE GROUP,WE HAD TO CHOSE TWO GROUPS OF DEFENDERS TO DEFEND THE "HERO". I, WAS AGAIN THE ATTACKER CAUSE I DID NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO DEFEND PROPERLY. HEEHEE IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THIS NEW CONCEPT MY TEAM WON! BUT GUESS HOW LONG WE TOOK? 20-30 MINUTES! THE COMMITTEE WAS NOT VERY HAPPY, SO THEY WERE TELLING US THAT WE WERE TOO SCARED AND WE HAD TO BE QUICK CAUSE THIS GAME WAS A ABOUT SPEED. SO WE DID IT AGAIN, THIS TIME, WE DIRECTLY RUSHED IN. BOTH GRPS RUSHED IN SO FAST THAT THE COMMITTEE DID NOT KNOW WHO WON.WHEN WE GOT BACK, HOSEA TOLD US THAT THE COMMITTEE HAD SOMETHING TO TELL US. WHEN WE ALL GATHERED, THE COMMITTEE STOOD UP AND CLAPPED FOR US WED WERE SO HAPPY!
WE HAD ANOTHER AMAZING SERVICE AND AT THE END, PASTOR MARK ASKED EVERYONE TO SPLIT INTO HALF AND MAKE A GAP IN THE MIDDLE AND ASKED US WHO WOULD MAKE A STAND FOR JESUS, EVERYONE RESPONDED EVEN THOUGH WE KNEW THAT IT WAS NOT GONNA BE EASY. BUT DOING A PLEASANT THING FOR GOD IS BETTER THAN HAVING A MILLION THINGS! AT 11:40, WE ALL SLEPT TO GET READY FOR A TIRING MORNING...

OH MY! CHURCH CAMP WAS FINALLY HERE ON THE 1ST DECEMBER 2008!i was both nervous and happy at the same time cause i have went to a church camp before. my brother and i woke up at 6:15 to get ready.... we were supposed to be there at 9 but his grp had to come earlier so i had to tag along and wake up earlier... when we arrived,i had to like stone there for 1 whole hour and look at his grp practice there showcase.......when it was 9, we all assembled and started by playin a game called "the amazing race" which will help us get to the camp site which was esat coast park outward bound first we had to like crawl in the church service hall to find a piece of paper...... unfortunately my group wasd the last.......... and in the end we could not find the paper haha!!FAILURE!we were told that we had to put some black thing on our faces... that was the thing i hated the most...the second activity i will skip cause to me... was not very interestingthe third activity was to go to the underground tunnel and do some weird movewments while walking though it but before that, my grp saw a grp in front of us and chiaog to overtake it it was pianful for me cause i had gone jogging with my mom the day before and my legs were still aching...after over taking them,we reasched the tunnel and did the weird movements with joy in the lead.next.... i think we went to sing songs in front of strrangers it was fun but don wANNa say in detail hahaha....i forgot wat we did next so let me just skip to the part where i reached outward bound...the place was fantastic! the view was great and the rooms were like those that you would sleep in during army.. only this was way better...we had a great service and yah you know... we were talking about paul and silas.
