CTG CAMP 2006

haha... thanx to Sam sam who allowed me to copy and paste her blog entry abt CTG camp. those in brackets are edited by myself. :D

Sam, Muk (2006). CTG camp 2006. Busy Busy Me!: July 06.

CTG CAMP 2006
one and half week of intensive preparation for the camp, which contains arguements, disagreement, unhappie-ness, sleepless, brain death.....it is all over, it is all worth back!!!all these arguements, disagreements make us understand each others better....
everyone seemed to enjoy the camp......n as the camp committee, that is really what we want to hear...



at first, we did worry about whether the campers will find these games interesting or not, if they dun wan to play then how?? but it's proven that we think too much!!! although there were 2 or 3 ppl who do not want to play certain game, but from this, it makes everyone realised something......putting in effort does not means those will be recognised by all. but i know, some really do realised! thx for those ppl.... Matt matt, u gave a really good speech!!!!

been lacked of sleep pre-camp n during the camp.....first day of camp only slept an hour (erm... well, i slept for almost 3 hours)....playing Killer in the cold morning after all planned activities end, when most of the campers slept...we r crazy ppl...but dun play that time, play when??!!!
then the second day, i was really really tired.....though i so want to play...end up sleping at 3am n woke up at 8am.....

DAY 1- 21 JUL 06 highlights
1. ice breaking game- it was quite messy due to someone not coming to camp , n some juz join the camp....make our pre-prepare name list become messy....newspapers game was ok.......their team name n slogan r funny...
* Triple C * Tempura, Sushi, Sashimi * Whatever is Whatever * We r f^cking bananas *
(and station games!! --> there were 6 stations: spider web, 'crossing the river', hoola hoop, card standing, cans and pens, 8 ppl 7 legs)

2. Da Vinci Code --> treasure hunt.....guess most of them found it difficult...mainly because they dun really know the camp well n it was so dark at night..... (and i'm the devil who always lead u to the wrong direction when they came to ask me question)

* clue of " Only drivers care" leads them to car park instead of the slow down sign near the entrance of the campsite.
* "Pig run before king kong" make them headache...dunno where izzit....it meant Ping Pong= table tennis (2 teams asked me abt this one... and i made them think it's something to do with food... sorry guys... >.<)
* "Behind the scene" cause the most trouble..cause it should be behind the recreation room. It was my mistake, put the next clue inside the recreation room...but then dunno who, not the comittee members, put it outside the recreation room..make few groups cannot find it...
* "Kitty's bed" should be the easiest one....which is in my room, under my hello kitty pillow, i purposely bring my kitty pillow so that they can find it. But still, got teams go to look under my car...Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
* "Fishnet on the ring", which is the basketball court...still many ppl missed it...
* "Tweety house"- the bird house, many ppl not even know there is this bird house.

3. Suprisingly, our photo taking game was fun n the campers luv it!!! make our efforts of preparation for this game worth back -- 3 hrs of photo taking (at my place and with the help of my 2 frens and 1 former CTG ppl. thanx guys!!), which need to think of the pose for different level ....the "makeup" flour......make us do the cleanning like hell... (good that many ppl helped lar)

(for photos, pls refer to Sam's blog :D)

DAY 2- 22 JUL 06 highlights

1. Play ground + water bomb game--it was quite a mess for these games at first. cause a few of the campers refused to play it as they said they dun wan to get wet. Because of this, it make all of the committee members realised that putting in effort does not means those will be recognised by all. But as i said before, i know there r lots of them who recognised it!!!n Matt Matt, i have to say that......u gave a really good speech!!! We, the committee members were quite unhappy that time...hence, the instruction given for the playground game was unclear....but then the water bomb game afterward was great!!without those who refused to play!!!!

3 teams were required to stand together on a square wood, then me n Sze Chern take turn to ask questions. then they need to be the fastest to shout out their team slogan to get the chance to asnwer. If answer correct, the other 2 teams will be poured water by other 4 committee members. If answer incorrect, they will be poured water. At the last question, all the committee members chose to stand in front of any teams. They get wet, we get wet as well!!!!Fair right??!! Here is the video that the camper (Eric) put on YouTube!!
Water bombs in the camp

(aiks... ya.. i admit that i ran down in that first round.. but the 2nd round, i din... so erm... hehe)

c matt matt already get so wet for the first turn...as all the "pourers" poured at him although the team answered correctly.

2. X-men --> they were given scripts that were pre-written by us. They need to act according to the scripts. There were 4 different scenes(mission) to complete. If they failed, they need to restart again from the first mission although they already completed that mission before. They seem to enjoy it as well!!!

one of the mission- adapted from "Journey to the West"
Journey to the West


3. Wasabi Acting game-- the last game for the camp....Each team r required to eat something in front of everyone n act as they like so that other teams cannot guess who had eat the "nice" food.

* 9 vegemitte breads Vs 1 nutella bread
* 9 wasabi sushi Vs 1 non-wasabi sushi
* 9 lemon juice Vs 1 water
* 9 2tsp of coffee powder Vs 1 2tsp of milo
* 9 vinegar Vs 1 water

6 of us also acting by eating vegemitte breads n JP ate the nutella breads. omg!!vegemite suck!!!!!!dunno who will like to eat it!!!when i smell also wan to vomit.....dun say eat.... (erm well, i'm quite ok with it mayb coz i used to had marmite with porridge or soup when i was really young)

That the offical activities for Day 2....after that...most campers do their own stuffs, play around..while 6 poor committees got to wash all the dishes used for the acting game...omg...at least 200 glasses lor...luckily have dishwasher....


DAY 3- 23 JUL 06 highlights

last morning of the camp.....least ppl having breakfast...everyone rather sleep than eat....after packing up n cleaning around the campsite..we had our prize giving n group photo taking session before heading back to city.

New semester

First day of uni today for my final semester...
had a 9am lec just now, 1 hr break now. no where to go, dunno what to do, so here i am in the comp lab in union house.
18 contact hours for me this sem, my timetable was quite nice... except a 4 hours break on tuesday before my prac which ends at 6pm :S

came back from CTG camp yday around 4pm and went to bed at 5pm till this morning 7am.
with my eyes half closed, brain not functioning in full mode, got 2 sms (thnx, so sweet of you 2) and a phonecall from my mum. can't really recall what i said to my mum now. haha!
It was tiring but definitely a fun camp!! the 'after camp feeling' of being in the camp comittee is really different from a camp participant. felt relieved that everthing went fine this time. and glad that everyone (at least most ppl lar) enjoyed the camp.
during this 3 days 2 nights camp, i only slept for not more than 8 hours. and i;m sure most of us did, well especially those who were at the ground floor. :P

sigh.. now.. back to uni days again...
will work hard and play hard this final sem!!
and cherish every moment while being a undergrad :)
alright, time for my 2nd lec... ciao!

back in melb

back in melb!!
crazy! 5 dozens of krispy kreme!! won't want to do that again!
everyone's watching, from syd all the way home! >.<
'wow! how many u got there?!' said the air stewardess.
'ur 1 week supply of doughnuts!' said a skybus passenger.
'i'm sure u like doughnuts!' said the building manager.

miserable weather in melb.. cold, raining. it started raining when i was about to get home. sigh... syd is so sunny!

ok... cont update abt my syd trip...
sat: fish market, uni of syd, disney on ice
conclusion of the day: will be back for sashimi, will love melb uni more, disney is not just for kids :) i luv it too!

sun: opera house, the rocks, chinatown, DFO, dinner at JuJu (a jap restaurant
conclusion of the day: opera hs market is not so worth going, weekend at the rocks is always good with the market although they're abt the same since few years back, breadstory is not bad, 2 tops for me + looking fwd to DFO at spencer st (melb), good food good friends.

mon: Lindt at Martin Pl, Pancake on the rocks
conclusion of the day: will be back again for hot choc (dark choc)!!, and pork ribs and of course pancakes!!

tues (today lor): Kingsford airport, Tullamarine airport
thought won't hv enough time to get the 'nuts', was panic when couldn't find the krispy kreme stall at first. then was wondering if 5 dozen is too much for the cabin overhead locker. haha! but yea... they fit in just nice :)
i was hoping that more ppl will put their bags next to the 'nuts' so that they will 'sit still' in the overhead locker. ended up the 'nuts' shared the space with 2 other small bags and i had 3 seats in a row by myself.
phew... next time (if there is), 3 dozen is the max i'll carry! haha!

and i found 3 'cool things' abt syd train (the train itself, train station). i might sound a bit 'sua ku' but.. haha:

1. this thingy where train passengers hold on to it. it's cool coz it's not connected all the way to the bottom


2. the ads and news projected on the wall

3. the seats in the new train which u can change the back of the seats for train going in either direction. coz trains go back the other way after they reach the end station, so if the seats are fixed for one way, ppl will be sitting facing backwards when the train goes the other way. so those seats in the new trains, ppl can just change the 'direction' of the seats so that you can seat 1 of the 2 'directions' u prefer. sounds complicated? :P
