recount of 3 days study camp

1st day: humans talk in the morning. its so tiring just sitting in the hall and listening to the talk. because your legs just get so numb and the circulation is just really impeded. they might as well have given the talk in class instead. all otherwise, just put tables and chairs in the hall.. so that at least we can get the circulation going. afternoon was fun. NE program.. and its about food!! too bad we can't get to sample any dishes. but we created a fusion dish. which actually is thinking up of any kinds of food from malay, indian, chinese or western culture. and F2 did a cool job too.. mr chia even took a photo of our work!! =D and after that was caption contest.. what we did was see the pictures of the kinds of food that were sold in the 1960s.. and one of our captions was read out! but we didn't win.. =(
2nd day: maths talk. was ok lahx.. if not for the fact that the mike would stop backfiring.. actually its just that when someone suddenly speaks into the mike, it will scare everyone in the hall.. stupid problems with the PA system. ended super early.. at 12.. then practice was at 3.. so went for lunch with jingni.. and talked alot.. =p then we sight-read ivanhoe and shenondoah.. actually they are nice pieces.. but if we can brush up ivanhoe, it would sound even better.. the 2003 SYF batch managed to learn it and make it almost perfect in 2 and a 1/2 months.. so we can do it as well! for the esplanade performance.. we must do our best!
3rd day: a whole lot of talk about english o level orals.. then around 11 a speaker came to our school and continued stressing on the o level english orals.. yawnnnnnnnnnnx. its such a bore. as if I had not heard enough of these earlier. and also, he has a loud voice(or is it that stupid mike screwing up again?) so the result is that people sitting at the right of the hall were covering their right ears to prevent their eardrums from being shattered. we finished at 11.30. then all the sec 4 band members gathered together.. and we went as one big lot to IMM for lunch.. amanda joined us as well.. hahax. only sec 3 in the lot. =p jingni, shitien, dina, junie didnt come with us..=(
so we bought burger king and long john silver and went up to the empty space next to the playground on the 3rd floor to eat... and got chased off by the guard.. is this considered an illegal gathering? or is it that we were probably obstructing the way? =/ then we came back to school.. practised marching for awhile.. then sat back and listened to ivanhoe and tales of the sea(CSS SYF 2003 CD) twice. then we had the whole group who came down to go through ivanhoe and we also sight-read gulliver's travels.. eugene can play my fast xylo part in movement 4! *clap clap* but abit sad that i had to leave early..
