had been missing for 2 weeks i had camp and a class chalet it was a community service camp **a very meaningful one** i was in the red team i had a lot of fun known a lot of nice ppl my team got very well bonded we even got the best team award and gotten a sasha bear
day one of the camp i got separated from ade BUT same team as april my team had 12 ppl in total 3 guy 9 girls not long after a few ice breaking games we headed to BISHAN HOME, a place for those intellectually disabled ppl their IQ is less 70 when i first saw them i was really scared as they behave very differently from us some juz kept very quiet at a corner while some made a lot of noise i remembered there was this mentally disabled guy hold on to my hand and didn't allow mi to go i was lost.. i was scared but i can't show it out show i know they will feel hurt they are actually the same as us but they are juz slower i felt better when we started to play game with them they are harmless juz like little kids very innocent ppl game such as throwing the paper plane across the room seem simple but for most of them its a challenage we taught them how to fold the paper plane and how we should throw the plane in order to make it fly they were very excited when they see it fly i never know being contented can be that easy.. we left the place and back to TP for dinner the dinner was................horrible nice. as there will be a camp fire on the third day we were told to have a little performance after all the discussion we are having..... TP MASS DANCE!!! i love it!! its so fun! LOL some ppl might dislike it but seriously its fun! i simply enjoy it.. slept at 3 plus that night we played "shit hole" and went to the sandwich machine for supper.. HAHA my diet will never suceed LOL
Day 2 it was all abt games a lot of games we have adventure learning in the morning **those high element games.. eg flying fox** i really hope to give it a try.. but i can't cos i've heat stroke that morning.. my first ever heat stroke in my life! we had a lot of games we had field cooking! something i never tried before.. choir dun have such things.. hahaha.. it was fun. we cook pasta.. i was the chief.. LOL then games again there was this section that call "Ability/envionmental games" they give us a plate that has some holes punched *dunno wat it call but its for the blind to feel its like letting them to "read"* when i was blind folded i was totally lost all i could depend on was my team mates finally i know how the blind feel
game 2.. this game reminds mi of my dad its a game whereby we have to tied up one of our leg to other member and slowly kick the ball from one end to the other when our legs got tied up to one another's its really difficult to control we begin to walked like cripples a few times we nearly fell down.. we were afraid to fall cos we didn't wan to hurt ourself same goes to my dad.. went he first amputated his leg he move very slowly as he didn't wan to fall he had been acting very behavely infront of me..i thought his was really alright hence didn't give much attention to you *i'm sorry for not being sensive* i could have done more for him.. ppl.. really spend some time with your love ones before u regret it.. i'm regretting now i'm not a filial child.. i'm not.. i could have done more.. i miss him..
we had other games too but i dun wish to go into details.. i slept at 3 plus that night as i ahve to plan for my class chalet intially was supposed to plan with some one but it turn out to be a solo job by mi.. nevermind its ok i'm capable enough to plan it by myself.. thank-you eddie and vivien for accompanying till 3 plus
Day 3 we went to the MINDS *forgotten what it stand for but its the same as bishan home* i was asked to partnered one of the trainee there **trainee is the name for the ppl there, the intellectually disabled** they were the high functioning group/low supporting group ppl she is Azizah. she is 32 but she act like 10 plus kids.. though she is older then mi but she calls mi "jie jie" she stick on to mi a lot, hold on to my hand a lot of times.. i can't post her photo.. they said its for a certain reason.. can't remember wats it.. but one thing she cannot remember my name i tried different ways but she juz cant remember mine.. they are very easy contented ppl.. when i left the place i suddenly have this thought though God might had taken something from them but it may be a blessing in disguised.. at least they dun have to worry abt money, BGR, meals and studies.. **not as STRESSFUL as the ppl nowadays** they came over to TP and camp there.. that night we had campfire.. had performances and a lantern walk around the school that night, my team didn't sleep at all we played a lot of games.. silent heart attack, fish, go back jump-go jump go, murderer and etc.. after games at abt 4 plus in the morning.. all of the team mates each hold a lighted lantern and headed to mac that is a few HDB flats away from TP.. it has been donkey years eversince i last played the lantern we had breakfast there.. the funny thing was.. all of us slept at mac.. LOL imagine two rows of ppl sitting opposite each other, sleeping, total 14 of us 7 in each row..
DAY 4 the last day of camp.. i was tired.. jogged2 rounds with azizah while she was having breakfast i was sleeping at one side.. after breakfast we had some games and had dragon boating.. it was damn fun!! i never tried that before.. plus the student coach was damn cute! all the instrutor this camp was soo cute and cool.. hee..hee.. its was a fun experience.. at abt 3 plus the MINDS ppl have to leave us.. when azizah was abt to leave the bus i asked her do u remember my name and she said "yes, rebecca jie jie.." i was damn touch! i cried.. she finally remember my name.. though i know she might forgotten the next moment but at least she made an effort to remember it.. the camp ended abt one hour after they left.. but my group was that close that after we break camp we still stayed to play those games we played during the camp.. the camp ended at 4 but we left at 7.30 pm.. we exchanged numbers and collected everybodies msn.. i like this group of ppl.. i had fun..
it has been a very meaningful camp.. i dun wanna waste my time off by thinking of BGR and some useless thing.. there are a lot of things that we can do..
YAWN!! i'm tired.. going to continue abt the class chalet tml.. i've got bitten by some unknown insect during the class chalet, had more than 40 red spots on my face.. look at the picture below..not very clear but still able to see the red spots its not pimple.. i dunno wats it too wat if its dengue fever??!!??
