finally! this week is over..yay..end of busy days..

this is how my week goes:
19-21 red cross annual camp
23-26 red cross youth challenge

haiz..didnt get to earn a lanyard for my uniform..quite disappointed with myself la..all i earned was a stupid cut on my thigh which makes me walk like an ah ma like wat chongxi had said..but today the cut is like healing quite a lot la..hardened le..but i still walk like an ah ma..and congrats to chongxi! she has earned a lanyard which represents pride and prestige..mdm edna and yilin too! congrats!

the red cross camp is quite okay la..the food is good and everything else is good..the food..but not the sleeping area..LOL..first night slp in tent then rain..and the tent was quite wet..then the tent collapsed..then went to slp with sec 1s..a lot of ppl in one tent..then i ended up in a small corner..sitting..not lying..and went to slp on the bench or whatever u call them outside the rc room..quite cold and hard but at least i have somewhere to sleep..

then the camp oso quite fun la..gt games night trail and many more..but forget liao..ok..next shall talk abt rcyc..

first day went to the general station and dragon boating..tried dragon boating for the first time..quite fun..but the hand muscles damn pain..it's damn tiring de lor..then gt capsize drill..and we all fell into the salty water..and my nose and mouth had quite a large amount of water going in them..

second day is mountain biking, soccer, archery, evac and first aid..for archery, evac and first aid i failed la..cos the archery damn difficult to shoot..some out of the circle some in the end second circle..but i managed to shoot the balloon..evac and first aid oso difficult..cos i dunno the things that are described in the clue for the items in the first aid kit..i did not even heard abt the gally-pot..

soccer was quite easy la..but i was perspiring under the hot sun..the strict soccer was difficult..but managed to shoot the goal after quite a couple of times..

and next was mountain biking which caused me to fall down..the road was quite bumpy and for ur info, i dun really know how to ride a bicycle..was like many years ago since i rode

i was the last one la..cos keep stopping..first is too close to the side and landed at the grass area and the bike fell on top of me..next is my track pants..too long then then the track pants keep getting caught in the pedal..after this everything went quite smoothly until i was down the slope..suddenly.. the bike went really fast and i tried to slow down and brake..and this caused me not to have a chance to try out the other activities and earn the lanyard..all i had was a cut on my thigh..and when i was falling.. all i tot of is ' wow so this is how it feels like to be in an accident' cos i rolled over and the bike oso fell on my leg..heng nth much happened..cos i was wearing a helmet..only gt a cut..but it was quite deep..

next day was rock climbing, rope abseiling and high elements tink..all i did was sit dere from 6am to around noon..watching the others try out all this stuff...stupid lor..

haiz..i tink i will go the rcyc challenge next year if i can la..i want a lanyard..i must earn it next yr..and later i go the same thing happen to me i can really cry lor..feeling quite sad..cos like i spent 4 days challenging myself and even injuring myself and gt nothing in return..i dont even have a chance to know where my limits are and whether i have the ability to get the lanyard cos i dindt even try out the last 2 stations and oso didnt complete the mountain biking..hope the next year's challenge will be a better one for me..=)
