This camp is another memorable one, one worth keeping into my memory bank. This is why you see it up here in words.
The sequence of events are as follows:
Day 1, Wednesday
I was one of the hundreds of members who went to church early in the morning to board the coach which was scheduled to transport the whole load of us to KL. There were 20 coaches in total, and I was in bus no. 19 together with 30-something other youths :D
Our bus IC was Auntie Doris, one of the coolest aunties in church. She's motherly, cheerful, bubbly, and even adorable! lOl. Never mind that our bus was the last one to arrive because the driver couldn't find his passport (c'mon, give me a -___- face). Thank God he found it anyway. Be thankful man!Below: Roommates; LingJia/Charmaine/Aarathi; Aloy praying??
Everyone cleared the immigration checkpoint smoothly :) I love the one at the Singapore side, it's so fun to have your passport and thumbprint scanned by the machine, a really quick and easy way to get through the customs.My so-called bus partner for the journey to KL was Kwa, there was quite a bit of swapping of places in the bus..I sat at the middle seat right at the back, where I had a bird's-eye view of the entire bus. Haha, if the coach jerked, I'd be the first to fall. If that happened, I would have pulled the one nearest to me. Ronald or Charmaine. LOL. Of course, who could forget the singing session in the bus?
We arrived at the hotel at what, 5pm? We missed the entire opening speech/briefing for all campers. By the time we got to the 14th floor, people were already making their way up to their rooms -.- That's how late we were. No hard feelings though, what mattered was that we arrived safely! :)My 2 roommates for the camp....
Sophia and Jacelyn, AKA Loo Yee! *applauds*
We didn't have to wait long for our room keys - A2606 was the room, East Wing. BUT we had to wait for the room to be ready. We were sitting outside at the corridor, waiting patiently for them to finish making up the room, which can be seen from the picture below... Bored people take photos. 
Then we decided to be really lame. We had an opening ceremony for our room!! HAHAH, there's one missing hand there luh. I think Sophia withdrew hers.
The first thing that came to our minds at first glance of the room was like,
OMG SO SMALL!!!
We proceeded to explore the room, only to find a missing bed (there were 2 single beds and 3 of us), and closets which could not be fully opened due to some major obstructions -- the 2 beds -___-.
The closet doors could only be opened halfway, so obviously we didn't use them at all, we only made use of the safe to keep our passports and other valuables. Then Jacelyn got so excited she jumped about on the bed like a child who's never been into a hotel room before. Goodness.
ASPARAGUS soup was part of the dinner and, well, we were all grossed out by it. Bleh. I shouldn't have took so much. All that glitters is not gold! It did look appealing, someohow it just did. Everything else was alright I guess.
Ah. Then came the word session with Pastor Derek Hong from Church of Our Saviour (COOS). I must admit his messages are a lil' hard to understand, it requires a certain depth there.
That night wasn't much of an excitement. The 3 of us went over to Andrew and Joshua's room..
... only to be greeted by a burning stench unworthy of our noses. Some joker went to burn paper in the room and maaaaaaaann, the smell was highly unbearable. Andrew's that joker la, I mean, who else would do something as bo liao as this??Day 2
Sophia told me she snoozed my alarm for me twice. OOPS. Alarm clocks of any sort just don't seem to work on me! I know my alram tone was highly irritating, haha, but that's how I try to irritate myself awake if I do hear the alarm (which is quite rare. My maid always wakes me up.).
