She cared too much for us..she forced us to bath,change clothes,eat..lolx.overall..she is a nice teacher/mother..LOlx
2.always listen to what the ranger say.especially dun shine torchlight at the forest..arison experience..LOlx..and dun act smart..we followed wrong track and nearly ended up in malacca jungle.mr kwa kwa say this is the first time a ncc group disobeyed orders and nearly went to malacca jungle..which have lotsa junctions and can taKE a week to find us..
3.learn abt the diff character of ppl.cs and siva r simply kind and adorable.lolx.a medic even took pic with them!haha..the medic also took pic with cheetah and jaguar who is xina and ruth..becos they wore their hse shirt they called them tt..u must b thinking what a pervertic medic rite..lolx.mich was v.daring.i find tt i m a diff person over there..especially durin the evening..i become a diff person.teng geok will take 15 mins to put in her contact lens...wahx.and learn tt kt quite hot tempered.

NEVER shine ur torchlight onto the trees.2. went go to toilet,go in pairs.3.no goin to the stream at night.4.if u see anything or smell anything ,keep it to urself.tt all i can remeber.7pm the sky turned dark.between evening and nite..there is this insects which make some humming sound..tellin everyone the changin of color of the skies.we visited each other tents..and tok some crap.arison ,nataniel were shining torchlight at each other.and it accidentally shined at the forest.the ranger was just behind their tent..and saw their tent shiverin like hell.and saw the thing fly two rounds ard the tent and go.arison can feel the thing..and his hair stood up.he n nat was reprimmanded by the ranger..and the ranger say tt the thing if land on ground..everyone must nt scream..and evryone will run ard without knoein why..and say if everyone slp at 10..nth will happen.and say if tt nite anythin happen..they were to b blamed.and so with tt..we try to slp early.haha.
