I wasn't supposed to be in this camping trip, but then I need the certificate so that I would graduate. And so my presence was needed there =,=. It's tough, considering it's my very, very first time, to be out on the great outdoors, to sleep without a comfy bed, to clean myself without a nice warm bath, and to take myself away from
.. hehe =p
But then again, I was there. haha, and I never expected it to be fun ^-^. The camp lasted for 3 days, from Jan. 15-17, but was supposedly planned to be until 18. The place was in Freedom Ville subd., Bucana Sasahan, Naic Cavite. It's by the seashore, so yeah, it's cold out there. It wasn't rare to see people wearing jackets =).
.
The camping site.
It's by the seashore. Lot of sands, with the, err,
browny beach =,= hehe.
We set up the camp right away.
mayday, mayday,
we need water..!yes, the school has provided us with clean water for drinking, as well as a cook for our food [which makes us different from the rest =,=], but not the water for cleansing. Thus, there's the firetruck to provide it for us. But it's not always there [>...<]
Team building activities.
This wasn't any ordinary camping trip. We had activities that has corresponding awards as well.
Free time for
Photoshoot.
We had some free time to clean ourselves, to eat, and to take pics ^-^.
Night Activity,
Mr. Rover and Ms. Roverette.
Each school showed talents, as well as the pageant; Lea and Jerome as representatives.
That ended the 1st day's activites. We slept at about 12am. But it was really hard getting sleep since I had a runny nose. So I slept at about 12-2am, then 3-5am. phew, just 5hrs =,,=..
2nd day, Friday.
Learn-A-Trade.
We made either a bracelet or a voodoo doll as our souvenir.
First-aid/Safety Preparedness.
Our victim, Lea, was hidden in the trees with a lot of
injuries. We had to make sure to bring her back
alive. hehe..
The Guessing Game.
We need to guess the whole picture: the placements of materials. Our look-outs and runners: AC, Paul, Px, and Kenneth will tell it us by answering our questions with
YES or
NO.
Night Activity,
Bonfire and acting.
Each school will present a skit/act about "Creating a better world".
2nd day ended.. yes! 2 days down, 1 to go ^-^. We slept at about 12am. But I didn't had any troubles with sleeping now. I slept so soundly that Lea had trouble waking me up =p.
3rd day, Saturday.
Games/Sports.
We had
Beach volleyball, Standing Long Jump and
Water war. After that, we had
Water Safety. Wherein 10 persons from a school will race to the
browny sea.
The almost never-ending
Hiking.
There were signs, there were scouts, and there were us to do the walking. waaah, this was a tough one since we had to walk throughout the whole barangay [>..<] It made some of us sick. We walked for about 3 hrs.
Last but not the least, the
Awarding night.
This was the last activity that we participated. Before this activity, we already decamped and put our baggage inside the school buses. We won 13 trophies plus 1 trophy of participation which makes it 14~! ^-^ A last look at the site and photoshoot with the team and we've headed home.
It was fun guys ^-^. Hope you like this summary of our trip. We arrived at the school at about 8pm. Dad fetched me along with MJ and we're home sweet home.
------><------ here's something for you guys ^-^
That was quite long, haha. Anyway, this ends my entry.
Farvel, EminA
