KEM GALA KO-KURIKULUM 2008

wah.... i noe some of you are disapointed cuz i dint update for some time already. well my apologies to u all cuz form 4 life is crzy......

back to the topic. ko kurikulum gala kem.

well i was happy to be selected to go for the camp. Nagen n pravin had to turn down the offer due to personal reasons, so they were replaced by william and weng ju.. that weekend i was going to spend in penang for my brothers civil wedding. I got back on sunday and left for the kem on monday. I wasnt sure where we were goin to stay in johor baru( yes johor baru....the kem is national level)and i dint noe exactly wat to bring. well i was packed and ready and arrived at school the next mornin. the three of us were then driven to pusat ko kuala berang. there the other reprsentatives from terengganu were gathered and we were to stay there one night b4 leaving to johor the next day. From what we were briefed on i supposed that we were goin to be staying in tents. later that night we practiced a traditional dance to be danced on the malam kebudayaan..

from terengganu there were 10 boys and 10 girls. the next mornin we left the pusat ko for johor....it was a long journey and on the way we watched the 6th day. we reached kem tasek utara johor baru at around 7 something. we were the last to reach the campsite. so we were taken immidietly to the moral session while our fellow muslim friends did their prayers. we were each given a excersise book and asked to make friends by exchanging email addreses n phone numbers... soon we were brought to the boys campsite to put up our tents. later that night we had ice breaking n group session where we had to build a tower out of straws.

the next morning

we started with aerobics and excersise n then divided into our activity groups. my first activity was high element. first we did reppeling were we climb down a wall. the next activity was the flying fox where we hang on a rope and glide over the lake. it was really fun to be able to do this activity. the next activity was the obstacle course which was fun and had alot of team work involved. that night we had the first part of the malam kebudayaan and terengganu along with sabah and a few other states danced some traditional dances. the next day we had kayaking. this was the most interesting activity as we kayaked along selat tebrau hafway to singapore in which we stopped at a small isle where the ruins of an ancient palace stood. one of the girls was traped by quick sand by almost knee height and tore her shoe before she was rescued. we then returned to the beach which was just next to the famous danga bay.

we got back and the last activity was orienteering and survival skills. however we could not complete the task of survival because heavy rain poured and it was called off. the next day was he openning ceremony for the gala and a few vips were present. there were many presentations by many different groups at the opening ceremony. later there was exibitions by various organisations. that day we were taken to see the city forest. it was more like a park
