Why must it be MARIO brothers.

I am glad to be back and sitting on a comfy chair even though my whole body is aching from the activities…

Just came back from choir camp and i had a blast despite a few shortcomings of the camp.

This year’s camp committee had very little help from Mr Chen(our instructor) in organizing it, unlike last year when i was in the committee… Therefore, the committee had a lot of stress while doing it… The new members needed lots of help and at times, failed in their tasks… The rest of the choir although had fun, did not follow rules and some even showed disrespect towards the committee.. As a result, Mr Chen issued a harsh punishment to everyone the next day before lunch, with the committee getting extra… His punishment and harsh words left everyone demoralized and a few to tears… The lunch tables were very quiet and had group members consoling each other… However, everyone soon got back into the mood and continued to have fun.. The Sec 4s were also treated to a scrumptious buffet dinner sponsored by the teachers especially for the Sec 4s.. Heard it costed alot, so thanks teachers!

After lights out, there would be a committee meeting with Mr Chen which would go on for hours in staff lounge… They would talk about each and every activity including meals one by one and in every acitivity that had problems, be it having the activity too long or having the activity not organized properly, the committee would be reprimanded… Then, they talked about the activities the next day, about how to improve their tasks and how the activities ties to the objectives of the camp… The meeting ended at 4am on the first day and at 2am on the next day…

Overall, the camp was more or less successful. Everyone got to know each other better and leadership and teamwork was instilled in each and everyone of them. My group won The Amazing Race, showed the most amazing teamwork at the chair game(until even mr chen was very impressed) and was one of the 2 groups who survived the egg bomb game…

This wonderful camp brings an end to the Sec 4′s choir life in Zhenghua Secondary School. Congratulations to the Camp Committee of 2009 on giving everyone the best you could give despite the intense amount of stress you guys had to go through, thank you.
