During the March holidays, the Sec 3's were suppose to go to camp at Sarimbun Scout's Camp from Wednesday to Friday. The first day we got to know one another and the trainers a whole lot better. The class was split into two groups but most of the time was spent together. My group had Trainer Alyssa while the other group had Trainer Muhd. After the session, we started the activities.

It was literally dry as the activity was high elements. I definitely was not looking forward to doing the activity as i was terribly afraid of heights. I managed to skip the first activity which was CRC due to the lack of time. It was definitely nerve-wrecking, observing my friends climb up the obstacles. Luckily, i did not have to do so. The next activity was rock-climbing. I tried the activity as i missed the first one. It was tough because as i climbed up, the rocks hardly had any grips and i was scared of heights therefore i stopped climbing and went down. Afterwards was abseiling. This activity was definitely the scariest for me. I had to climb down the wall with only ropes. How can i not be scared?! Instead of stepping down, i slid down because i have no control of the ropes as my hands were shaking due to my fear of heights. I had a mjor headache after the activity which was all mainly caused by the very stinky helmets. We practically had to wear it the whole time because all the activities requires us to put it on.

After dinner, we had a nightwalk. Walking throught the extremely dark forest was the least of my worries. There were trainers and teachers around the jungle, hiding. I screamed because I saw Mr Mus in the corner of a path. It took me by surprise. There was a debrief after the nightwalk and then off to shower and then lights out. End of day one.

Day two was the best of the best! We had wet activities the whole day. Firstly, we had rafting. It was fun coming up with an idea to get the raft to the other end as fast as possible but too bad the other group won. We also squeezed in time to practice for our cheer. After the first activity was an obstacle where we had to get to the other end by ropes. It was challenging but yet very fun. The next part was the Milo Pool. Sliding down the slide was thrilling but ending up in the pool of muddy water was disgusting. My left ear was blocked by water and i could barely hear. The last activity before lunch was kayaking. It was by far the best activity for me. It was scary paddling the boat as i was afraid that i would capsize but it was seriously an amazing experience. Luckily, my partner, Fazeerin, and I managed to stay afloat.

After lunch was the Sarimbun Challenge where we had to go around the camp and complete some activities. We did not manage to finish the activities because the group started late. Finally comes the campfire. The highlight of all camps is definitely the campfire. We had cheers and dancing. It was the bomb! Before lights out, we had a shower and debrief. This concludes Day 2.

Our last 'activity' was cleaning the girl's toilet. The whole class cleaned it fast with all our efforts. We chit chatted and took pictues with our trainers before finally leaving the camp for good. It was sad bidding goodbye to Alyssa, my trainer but it is time i head home. Not done yet, we had a learning journey to Marina Barrage before finally heading home.
