Part 2
Day 4- 1st activity was Candy Olympiad. As the name suggests, instead of the normal prizes for gold,silver or bronze, candies like chocolates & sweeets were used as replacements. For eg, the grp with the highest pts in a game would get 2 chocolates. And so, I was in the yellow grp! Haha, yellow yellow dirty fellow..ok, so this game consists of the various stations which were aimed at getting all of us WET! For me, my very 1st station got me all dirtied with flour.Unfortunately, at the 2nd last station, it started raining and we had to seek shelter! While waiting for the rain to stop, we were given materials to design our grp flag and to come up with a short story or soemthing like tt. Haha and so for the finale of Candy Olympiad, each pair have to try to destroy other groups flag by walking around 3-legged with water bombs.The ulimate winner would be, the grp whose flag is left the most intact and dry! In the end, it ended up more of a sabo-ing session! Following tt was faculty talk and CSC talk.. Faculty talk was not tt bad cuz it was actually getting to know more abt your faculty thru yr seniors over lunch and apparently, i was the only 1 frm sde so i had like 3 councillors to myself? haha but for CSC talk,most of us were like practically dozing off? After tt, we had free time till abt 6 plus and thus, we used it to practice our dance.After dinner was SP interaction session and this time, it was abit different. I think diff grps took turns to meet their SPs and my grp and some others had to wait so we ended up playing games to keep ourselves entertained and also to know ppl frm other grps. Btw,after a super long time it was finally my turn to meet my SP and as usual we chatted like we knew each other for a rather long time. haha and I just have to say this, there were annoying councillors all around trying to listen to our convo and occasionally, doing stupid stuff either to us or tried to make us do stupid stuff! Oh ya, there was also this obstacle thing whereby I had to overcome 3 obstacles with my SP bearing in mind tt we were still blindfolded. We had to walk thru a mini maze with a balloon in b/w our neck and reached the diff stations.The 1st 1 was to sing a duet, 2nd was the limbo thingy and the last 1 was to act out a short skit! So dumb la, they actually asked us to act a scene of a damsel in distress since i was xena and my sp was hercules! Super embarrassing k cuz we had to idea how stupid we looked! After this, we got separated and this time to another grp meant for Memories. Memories..haha dun be misled by the word k, is actually fright night 2 for me!! Let me tell u, i think the sde 1 scared me so much tt I was super scared for Memories altho i must admit tt it was not as scary as the sde 1. I seriously freaked out and ended up going to 2 stations only. haha but at least the ppl were really nice to allow me to stay outside and not 'force' me to go in. So, after Memories we all went back to wash up and it was time for dance practice! Stayed up till abt 4 plus b4 going to bed.
Day 5-SENTOSA! haha, I love day 5 the best as I have been wanting to go sentosa for ages but could not find the time and also probably day 5 was the last night too so everyday was kinda high! So, the whole day at Sentosa was spent playing stations games which got us all wet and sandy. Nevertheless, it was really fun! All the funny,hilarious games we played be it on land or in the sea, it really left all of us feeling shagged and enhausted at the end of the day. Not forgetting, all of us walked out of Sentosa all chao-ta! I think the salt from the seawater made it even worse la! Anyway, after all the washing up, next stop was Changi Aloha chalet where we would be spending our last night. I must admit that tt place looks very old and run-down and according to cheryl, it seemed quite freaky tt she was forbiding everyone to sleep so tt we could all accompany her. That night was the revelation of our SPs too and I'm glad tt I could finally meet my SP face to face. After that was Talentime and it was really funny! For the peagent, Ee Hiang & Joel were representing mochamelts as Mickey & Minnie Mouse and apparently, both of them just looked so wrong together! Ee Hiang with the altitude & Joel trying to stay cute! As such, we didnt win in the end but is ok! haha and so after talentime, all of us went back into the chalet and started playing games! Our all-time fav game...Bom chi chi bom chi, ti ti tui! haha. Practically the whole night we were playing tt la and maybe a few rounds of polar bear. Finally, when me n gerry could not take it already, we went upstairs to sleep. Actually, many of us wanted to stay cuz once we sleep, when we wake up, it would mean is time to break camp:(
Day 6- Sadly, when there is a start to something, there must always be an end. It was raining when we woke up so it was rather cold..The female councillors were so nice to make for everyone coffee! Anyway, the prize-giving ceremony signified the end of Ethelonter 4 but I am really glad that Mochamelts won the BEST GRP! haha,u shld have seen the expression on everyone's faces.. Shocked, stunned and totally lost for words! Even our own grp councillors did not expect tt cuz we were like the smallest grp and of cuz the most demure? haha. So, as u can see, unity is strength! But actually, it was probably due to the pts accumulated for the external hunt since we were the 1st grp to reach and at the various game stations. Thus, all of us were really high after tt and before leaving the place, we managed to take some last few pics. Finally, it was really time to bid farewell to the place and also to the councillors be it frm other grps or the OC. After that, as a grp, Mochamelts went to Tampines to have lunch together before going our separate way.
Finally, to end off, I really would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all my ogls, ak,akc and all coucillors either from logam or mochamelts! I really enjoyed myself alot for the past 6 days and I am sure we would have many more outings in the future!
