Warning: Long post ahead!Hey guys!
How have you been!
I'm back home,
and it's been 2 days since I've been back.
I know I said that I didn't have pictures,
but I managed to take a few,
and only got them last night,
hence the delay.
But back to the main topic,
camp was great!
I miss the campsite already!
Until now,
I can't believe I didn't watch a single TV program for 5 days!!The camp's actually a
youth church camp,
and a typical day would consist of
2 sessions, 1 afternoon of games,
and... Queuing up for meals in between.. -____-
Sidenote: Session = Worship + Sermon
Games = ...Be prepared to get down and dirty
So.
Highlights.
Well, the speaker's definitely a highlight. Haha
He's
Ben Prescott of
Planetshakers.
And he's just such an anointed speaker!
Everyone experienced a touch from God,
and the altercalls were always
jam-packed full!
Hummm,
I got an
egg to the face during a round of
Captain's Egg
[
which is really just Captain's Ball, cept the balls are eggs.
It was either letting the other team score a point,
or an egg to the face. So it was totally worth it. :D]
We got to slide on banners covered in soap water,
and crash into each other. [
Which hurt alot!]
There were lots of
HILARIOUS events which happened during the camp,
like how person A woke up to the sound of an owl
and called his friends,
howling that he was afraid because he thought that there were
zombies outside his room. [
LOL]
A roach the size of a baby lizard,
footprints embedded into the parquet floor.
Plenty of Kodak moments![
I'm being so all-over-the-place,
because there is just too much to share,
and I don't know how to say it all in detail!]
There was also a session of
Night Games,
and it was really just a
Cluedo game,
played in reality, with the
entire campsite being the 'possible murder place'.
That was actually quite creepy. :S[
Really.]
Meals were my least favourite part,
because the queue was just too long,
and on several occasions, actually ran out of food by the time it got to me. :<
But the whole camp's really memorable because of
the sessions,
and how I got my relationship with God back on track,
and full steam ahead! :DGreat roommates definitely helped too. :)We actually didn't fight for the bathroom,
and they were asleep even before 'Lights Out'.
[
So I felt pressured into sleeping early too.]
That about sums up the whole camp in general.At first,
two sessions with
alot of worship felt like too much in a day for me,
but after the 3rd day,
I realised that those were the highlights and it felt so good to worship God everyday.
It's like
a slight peek into heaven,
and it really is making me look forward to it. Haha
Well, here are the pictures!
Little, but better than nothing right?

For the fashionistas of those days!
[If you'll look closer, there are beads, feathers etc. I reckon that's as close as one could get to fashion back then.]
For the musically inclined.
Wonder what they played in those days..?
For the warriors.. Probably.
Enter the wrong tent and beware! :O
My group's stupid wonderment at a real well,
which led to being mobbed by too many mosquitoes. -__-
Remember Cluedo?
Picture this scene, cloaked in darkness..
You can't even see the swings,
with only a single white lightstick to light the way.
Ftw.
