5 Day camp at OBS was a memorable camp... Seriously saying, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity... I dun think there's any other camps like OBS... This camp taught me alot... Building up my trust n confidence... Know n discover more about myself... Have faith in myself... Instructor Bibiana was supportive n encourage me all the way... Not only that... MY group was fun! Though we dunno each other that well, we seem to have this bond n knwing each other quickly...
Let's start off... Day 1...
Anisa n I was day IC for the day... 1st day... Though nothing much... Introduce ourselves to each other... And our instrucotr was Bibiana... We called her Bibi... How cool is that *grinz* We were given this soft toy... and were told to describe y we chose that toy... And what character in the toy represents us... I only gave a pathetic reason la... Dunno what to say... I took this cute blue toy... And simply said "I like the colour blue... The toy everything is in blue so ya..."
The first game... Everyone were to hold this canvas sheet... And someone were to fall back... I wasn't even confident la dat time... I nearly went last... So, I really have to had that confidence in me... And went for it... Since my group was encouraging me... I could see they really want me to go through it... There I go... I lean backwards n fall... They catch me... Phew... Thought I'm gonna overbalance but luckily I didn't... Thanks everyone! For encouraging me :DD
But there's a number of things to settle... Like clearing up the store... Pitching up of tents... And guess what? We only had biscuits n like snacks n fruits for lunch :/ how pathetic can dat be? But as long as there's food... Syukur alhamdulillah :)
And time flies so slow... I only remember that 1st day we did belaying... n that was when I was totally lack of confidence... And the instructor was like... "Her life was in ur hands... You should not be scared... If anything happens to her..." She didn't finish her sentence... I swallowed hard... Haiz... I didn't do it on purpose... I was even scared myself... But then I calm myself down n just do what i can... Sorry gurl... If u feel that way... I'm not harming u n i didn't mean to...
Had dinner n all... den showered... Get ready for bed time...
2nd Day
Shown how to kayak... How to handle the paddle... I was confused n lack of confidence at first
but I managed it... Asila was patiently teaching me... Thanks gurl! Den, even the instructor was saying that I've been doing well n good from time to time... After dat... We went to the beach... Where the fun started... We went into the water n grr... It was cold n_n hehe... With our life vest on... We hold onto each others hands n make a circle n lean backwards... Then, we fully went into the water n make sure our hair was wet... Get ready for kayak lessons *grinz*
Learnt how to paddle... And den did capsize drills... After which... We were taught how to rescue those who are capsize oready... It was fun... I was laughing when doing the drills la... Was having a good time... Nothing in my mind... Just wanna chill... Something happen la... I dun wanna say it here... It'll be a moment i'll never forget XD hehe...
Everyone prepared... they are ready to go for kayak... Drank lots of water, apply sunblock lotion... Off we go... Kayak to Camp 1... Reached there... We arranged the kayak n then... Went for the jump! WOOHOO... It really was a fun one la... I shout out what I wanna shout... the one "Have faith in myself..." The other one was "Allahuakbar..." Everyone jump in n shout what they intended to say... Den, we took our bagpacks... Went to our campsite... Our instructor gave a tour around camp 1... Den, we were given some time to shower n pitch tents... Had our dinner at the canteen n then attended some talk... I think there's nightwalk...
Wasn't that scary la =p coz I did have faith in god... He's there... I could feel it... N it wasn't that dark... After dat, we share about our thoughts n wrote down on our journals... Time to sleep after dat...
3rd Day
in the morning did some warm ups n play games... Den, there's high elements...
saw someone familiar... Perhaps I do have some feelings... Just a crush... I was delighted to see that person ^-^ But then... I only managed to finsihed 2/3 of the high element... I fall the last one... Nvm bout that... Saw a new instructor in our group... Have the same appearance just like dat someone... Only dia ade janggut n sikit2 muka macam saiful apek =p
After high elements... Set off for the island kekek... I was chosen to lead n help out with wei yang to kayak but instead... It's me... who slack n he help to paddle XD hehe... But we reached at a faster time n then soon settled down...
Shown to our campsite n pitch our tents... There's no electricity, water or even toilet on this island... But still can cope la... Den, we had dinner... At nite... Alot of ppl saw different things from my group... K la... Dun wanna talk bout it... We pitched another tent n then went to sleep...
4th Day
Set out for land expedition... Before that in the morning we pack up n clean the area... Played some games n set off... My group keep on stopping but we continued... Keep holding on... Luckily there's toilets... I wasn't in a good mood n I knew why... I was even crying for perhaps no reason? :/ Nvm den... Had some motivation from frenz n all n soon set off back to camp 2... We made it! But anisa injured her ankle... Haiz... Hopefully she get well soon... Saykura n I help to pack up her things... Tak sanggup tengok dia dalam keadaan macam gitu... Tapi benda dah jadi... Nak macam mana kan...
She was being sent to camp 1... We get ready things to bring to our campsite where we sleep n cook... The dinner was the best... Of coz la... Who cook... Your's truly XD hehe... There's orange juice, rice, sardines, sambal ikan n mushroom n also tuna... Alot... After dat, we presented... My group crap alot n we did have fun...
Had a brief about the day n our thoughts... Given back journals n wrote down our thoughts... After dat, we went to check on our store as our instructors tell us what to clear n clean up... Took my sleeping bag n went to the tent after the briefing... Didn't surrender my handphone =p
Tried to sleep but I wanna listen to misteri jam 12... Dengar kejap je... Terus dah belayar...
5th day
Pack up our tents... Washed everything that needs to be washed n pack our bags... Had breakfast n then the last time we talk n share experience together... Had some shooping to buy souveniers... Bibi read out something n almost all gurls cried... I tried but i hold back my tears... Both beside me cried so, i console them... those words... "
It takes an hour to like someone n a day to love someone but a lifetime to forget someone..." So meaningful...
Get back all our belongings like birth certificate n all... Den, we bid goodbyes... Wait for the boat... Took pics with Bibi n Hairi... Den, waved goodbyes as we parted... Memories stay close to the heart... Though we are far apart... Board the boat n off we go! Took 82... Some wanna have their lunch at pizza hut... I didn't follow... Just had my own lunch at KFC tiong bahru n headed back home...
It was raining... Just like what's been felt... Haiz... Nvm... I'll just needed some rest...
"
Hard things are on our way not to stop us but to call out our COURAGE n STRENGTHS..."
Reached home n I had my rest...
K la... I gtg now... tmr is gonna be a long day too...
Byeez...
