Yay! A trip to Sentosa really make my day!
Especially when it's a group of wonderful people that you could talk your heart out.
After Sentosa, all of us headed to Seah Im hawker centre for dinner and we decided to head to Hort Park to lepak.
Gawd, it was wonderful la. Great place, great company, what more can I ask for?
Okay, work tomorrow, should have a shower then head to bed.

But hate the fact that when I'm worried of my results, some people thinks that I'm plainly 'booking' the com. Like wtf la, my results are out on the 26th and I don't even have internet access to it, you say will kancheong or not?
Mehh.
Anyway, just finished taking a shower and yes, I'm heading to Sentosa.

I think this will be the last time I'll be updating before I leave for Shanghai. I'll be back by sunday.
Yep, emotions and stress aside, I shall enjoy my time in Shanghai since it's a new country I'm visiting this year. Just hope that things would be fine back here in Singapore. Hope that he'll be fine by his own for one week.
Seriously speaking, I'm not one bit excited going overseas this year. I've learnt how not to expect things because, if you have high expectations of something and get something back that isn't up to your expectation, you'll get disappointed.
But, yeah, going overseas away from sg could help me some way or another. To have some time to think about things.
Oh well, I'll be touching down at 5+am on Sunday, then after that, SENTOSA IN THE MORNING/AFTERNOON WITH THE TRAINERS FROM CAMP RENEWAL! WHOOHOOO! It's gonna be super fun can! Hee~
Anyway, I can't believe I'm leaving for Shanghai today. It feels as if it came too soon. Maybe it's because I've been busy with SinIndo and Camp Renewal to a point whereby I didn't notice how time passes by so fast.
Oh, did I forget to mention how I miss db trainings, the adrenaline rush and everybody during trainings?
Gawd, tell me about it. I envy Miq sia. Having trainings to keep him occupied. )):
Okay, I've gotta go get ready.
P/S: Happy Christmas everyone!
P/P/S: You readers should have known that I've joined Nuffnang right? I've been picked to advertise on my blog and yeah, I'm excited can! Haha! I only blog this coz it's my first ad ever since I'd joined Nuffnang. Haha!

I'm back from Camp Renewal 2008.
The feeling was kinda disappointing. Because I have never went for the previous Camp Renewals before and I'm being made to be trainer. Didn't know what to expect and I have people expecting things from me especially when I'm in a place that I have never been to. Even without solving this problem, I was/am having rumors about me and a certain guy. Plus, I don't know who I could trust.
I already felt pressurized even before the whole camp started. The current trainers in my group didn't make it better. The feeling is like being pushed into a ditch and leaving me with wild dogs around. Thank god for Miq and Calvin talked to me whenever I needed to someone to talk to.
In the end only one or two of the participants know that I'm under huge effing load of pressure. By the second day I really cannot tahan already somemore, I'm Kai wet's assistant, making it even worse. Basically, Kai's working attitude is too perfectionist. Besides, when I first heard that I'm working with Kai, I already have the intensions of backing out. but too bad, being a ppt, I couldn't say no to this camp.
Evaluation was done, and I saw one that say about me: ".....wrong choice of trainer.....didn't put trainer's level 2 into good use....no confidence.....must brush up...". It's super demoralising can. No encouragements no nothing. Like wtf la.
Yep, this affected me
alot as a trainer.
Sigh.
Okay, let's not talk about the shitty camp.
YESS! I'M FLYING OFF TO SHANGHAI ON TUESDAY!!
And I wanna get my hammock.
Random, I know. It's just that I regretting not getting one for Camp Renewal.
We're supposed to sleep in tents with wet ground and I didn't have a sleeping bag and all I had was a wooden orange bench as a bed. I woke up shivering. Why? tempreture was like 16-17 degree celcius in the morning.
Mehh.
Fine la. What all of you want is to bully me.
Fine lor, don't come to me when I cockup everything.
*UPDATE*
Okay, I was ranting about the camp just now that I forgotten to rant about the good stuff. The good thing is that I found two dbers, Amin from ITE College East, and Miq from Team NUS (yes KokAnn[if you're reading it that is], he knows your brother). I realised Miq first when he wore his team windbreaker and Amin when he wore his team jersey on the second night.
Like omg la, singapore super small can. Like this also meet db people. muahahaha!
Too bad amin went back on wednesday. HAHA!
OHOH, I almost forgot, I had a stargazing session with Miq and some other new trainers and we ended up playing 'I have never...' and '2 truth 1 lie' game and I nearly knocked out at the place where we were playing after Jones, Sai and Kai joined us. Miq walked me back to my orange bench then we said our goodnights and he went to join the rest of them. (:
I actually had fun with the new trainers. (:
Amazingly, they are the ones who made me sane. Thanks alot girls and guys! X)

Oh god, can't believe that one week gone just like that and I'm still in the midst of resting lor, basket.
Guess what?
I'm going off to camp renewal, another 5d4n camp and this time, thursday will be spent going to Malaysia for activities and friday will be spent coming back to Singapore and the week after that would my trip to Shanghai.
Oh god, sooo hectic can. I still haven't pack for camp lah.
Anyway, window shopping with Farh after work was really good. At least I manage to catch up with her. It's really really good to catch up with someone that you haven't seen in a while. It feels really really warm.
Sadly, I have no money to shop. $200 from my pay goes to Shanghai for shopping.
HAHA!
Saw a woolen Fox sweater perfect for Shanghai and red is the color I wanted but it doesn't have my size. :C
Then I say this pair of slippers and I decided to get but again, it didn't have my size.
How suay can I get la.
Mehh.

Sigh, resting at home isn't quite what I expected.
I could say that I'm quite recovered from SinIndo camp but not too sure about how am I gonna deal with my emotions just yet.
Tomorrow was supposedly my off day from SinIndo, but then my cousin's wedding needs it more than I do, so yeah, will be working tomorrow instead of the initial wednesday. I just need to try and grab the photos from the company's camera.
I don't know what I feel.
Sigh.
P/S: Shall go Jurong Point and get the striped Fox woolen sweater I saw the other time.

Like I was saying yesterday, I just finished a 5d4n camp with a mix of Singaporean students and Indonesian students.
It was really really fun because I could see my group's effort unfold right infront of me. I really appreciate the help of the Singaporeans. I'll definitely miss saying SINDOS OI!
During this camp itself made me realise that language barrier isn't a problem if you break the ice properly and also if you talk patiently with the students.
So, first day was kinda chaotic because it's too flexible and we trainers were kinda don't know what are we supposed to do. We were initially told to only do rockwall climbing and crc but, when Amanda and I went to the high ele area, we were puzzled that the zipline and abseiling were opened but oh well, my group did rockwall first then zipline.
While we were finishing zipline, the first batch of Indonesian students arrived and all the Singaporean students were super excited. So, after high elements, the students were handed over to Kai wet at the faa and we trainers went to fetch the Indo students from the canteen.
That was the first time the indo students saw the sin students. I really really thank god my students wasn't much of a problem.
By the third day the indo students were wanting to go shopping badly, so had briefing with Shang on wednesday before trainers' briefing and programs were changed. Relfections at Bukit Chandu and Hort Park were scraped and in comes Shopping at Mustafa Centre on thursday.
Seriously, Mustafa Centre was crowded with bangalas but at least the safety aspects of everything made me feel safer since it was my first time there. So I got mysef an anti frizz/hair moisture hair serum thingy, dove body spray and bangles for me and my two sisters.
OHOH! For heritage trail we went to Little India and Chinatown. I bought henna and my students had some hands-on with it
It was really fun la I tell you.
Since it was a 5d4n camp the bonding that was with the group was stronger than before ant at the blink of an eye, Campers' night came and went. Tears flowed to Vitamin C's Graduation. After I found my group huddled together, I found myself crying together with them.
The atmostphere at that point of time was really emotional but at least it gave the feeling of accomplishment that I gave my best and the results came out really good.
But, I MISS SINDOS! :C
Okay, I shall go start grabbing photos.
P/S: I feel so weird to be at home now. One week in camp made me feel that trainers' dorm is my home. Oh well.

Finally, a week's been over and yes I am really glad that I did the SinIndo camp.

I have some photos with me and yes, the Sindoians, please remind me to scan our group photos into my com.
