-2nd Week of School after Eurojam-
as you can see from the title, i still am thinking of eurojam. yes, it is truly an unforgetable experience, really impacted my life greatly. wish that i was back in eurojam with everyone, all of the singapore contingent, the same subcamp and the same people next to us. if u asked me whether i would go for it again, i definitely would say yes. such a great time spent there.. i really miss all the people there, all the days we spent there. i can even remember the first day when we touched down from the plane. we were just getting all our stuff, after we cleared the customs, gathered all our bags and we were just rushing from place to place being led by one of the eurojam staff/ist. then after going through what seemed like a maze, we finally ended up near some shops, and we rested. we waited for the french to arrive and in the mean time grabbed a quick bite. we checked the whole area and found out something quite shocking: prices in london are just like the prices would be in singapore, only they use pounds instead of sing dollars. meaning, its like x3 there. whoa. expensive. so just about everyone settled for whistletop's sandwich combo, sandwich, packet of chips and a bottled drink for 3 pounds. it IS expensive. this lunch would actually be the type of lunch we would be having for a long time.. so anyway, the french arrived, we boarded the bus to bring us there, then slept on the bus. lol. when we reached this field, we got out of the bus for a while, took a group photo with malcolm's camera. oh btw, the french, or rather europeans, have really cool hair styles. spiked and coloured! haha.. so different from singapore.. so anyway, got back on the bus, then got out of the field and the bus brought us to Hyland Park, Chelmsford. the place was really cool for a campsite. it had like, metal sheets on the ground for walk ways. thats was like, wow. then we got off the bus, and we realised that we were quite late, in terms of when we arrived. its like, almost everyone had their campsite had up and ready. flags were flying, food was frying, and everyone seemed pretty much settled. so we set up our campsite, the uk contingent next to us was so kind, they lent us their spare kitchen shed. =) if not, i cant really imagine what we would have to do.. probably construct one out of groundsheets. not a good idea. so ya, thanks again for the kitchen shed! then some of us started cooking dinner, the rest set up the tents. cant really remember what we ate though.. so after that we were like washing up, then we had some free time. this is when tony aka june ren told us the phrase "Own Time Own Target (OTOT)" lol... just basically means do whatever you want. so yea, i think we just slacked around. oh yea, indoneasians were going around singing songs already. haha. i think if im not wrong me and eugene went to the dance tent. o well, european girls are quite friendly. =D then that night i just fell asleep, without a sleeping bag. lol. i just went into the tent and then just went off into sleep. woke up a few times in the middle of the night, shivering and then trent helped me to get some stuff to cover me. thanks trent! thats basically the first day.. alot of parts were missed out, mainly cuz i cant remember and i dont have the time.. but yea, eurojam was fun! wish i could be there again! world jam is only 2 years away. ahaha...
to all the other people who read my blog but didnt understand what i was saying, nevermind. a few updates in school:
physics test- failed my heat capacity and latent heat test. 3/10. didnt study. bah..
a math test- i actually really studied for this test and guess what, i managed to pass! 25/40. not boasting, im just well, happy that something i put effort into has paid off.
first official scout meeting- ya, had my first scout meeting after eurojam and stepping up. training a level is quite weird and tiring. it really isnt easy trying to train at a level. oh well, its the first meeting, wont base anything on it yet, since it is the first and there were quite a lot of people who didnt go.. but if you think that i punish you for fun, please sort it out with me.
