Camp

I kind of liked camp. My trainer was Trainer Bernice(very good-never scolded us.) I liked the horizontal playground the most. Although it was very challenging it was also quite fun. From afar, it looked easy but it was actually very difficult. I thought the camp food was quite nice, but the first meal was way disgusting to describe. However, the A-huts were okay but usually a stray clothing would drop through the top bunk. I hated abseiling 100%. My best experience at camp was the campfire. Even after the campfire was put out and declared over, it started burning again on the ashes. Like the fire, I feel that we should not give up easily. Mostly, the camp was all fun, but the worst day has got to be the third day, because we had to do area cleanup and the corridor was filled with filth and had bra... everywhere. Basically, camp thought us how to appreciate what we are blessed with.

Things in this blog represented to be fact, may actually be true. The writer is frequently wrong, sometimes just full of it, but always judgmental and cranky.

Cats Sleep Anywhere

Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.Open draw, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere!Eleanor Farjeon (1881 - 1965)

My Hobbies

My hobbies are reading books(mainly non-fictional murder books). Reading is a good way of keeping one occupied, as it also can be very educational. However, I usually become too engrossed in my book till I forget to put it down. Unfortunately,like everything else, reading also has it's downsides and it's upsides. Children of today's generation rarely bother to read educational books. I am not opposing against reading these books, but I am just suggesting an alternative to these books. Another hobby of mine is playing computer games, which is ,unfortunately a quick way to get oneself into trouble nowadays.

Mixed Feelings

I personally feel that we students nowadays are laden with lots of pressure as we are usually given almost impossible-to-reach targets in tests and examinations,especially in our weak subjects.Other students may not share the same view as me because they might have had a different teacher last year or the year before.However,that does not mean we should restrict ourselves from doing well,it gives us all the more reason to strive for the best and to exceed our limits and go past our boundaries.It is not what is poured into a child that matters,but what is planted that counts.
