basically, LTC stands for Leaders of Tomorrow Camp.
its a camp tat draws out the leadership skill of
the camper as well as teamwork and many other factors.
and the camp is @ malaysia. and this is the first time
i went to malaysia =]
22Aug
as for the first day of the camp, we took the whole
day travelling to perak, malaysia. we left sch at
around 745am. reach checkpoint around 8. on the way
there, i ate A & W for lunch =] its been ages since i have
it cos SG branch all closed down. when we reach the Normad
campsite, it was around 4 or 5pm, den we played fisbee,
football, and chat awhile b4 dinner is served. after dinner,
we had a few briefing before we called it a day.
23Aug
day 2 of the camp, 7am in the morning. we woke up today
and had to ride a truck all the way to the market.
we were given a sum of money to settle our breakfast,
dinner, and the following day's breakfast. the line-up
for day was, market trip, wide water resue, wide water
ratfing and hiking to mountain sch. starting from the
first event, we went to the market and this is my first
time seeing live chicken. they were so cute!~ so we
decided to go and have breakfast first since every1 is
hungry and leave the shopping to the malays. also note
tat the period where we are camping is also the period
tat they are fasting. thus we feel bad that we are eating
without them, but we cant help it. i had niang tou fu for
breakfast, as recomended by a ipoh resident from our
group member. it was nice. after eating tat i feel tat
sg food is nothing compared to my food =] after eating and
buying everything tat we nid, we had alot of money
leftover, thus some of them went to buy fireworks XD
so we left the market with all the food items and fireworks
to a river somewhere in the mountains. we waiting and chat
with each other till lunch was served. after eating,
we started the wide water rescue. it started out with
swimming across the rapids. trust me, it was not easy it all!
but the instructor demo for us and it looks like NOTHING!
i tried like 2 times b4 i manage to swim across the rapids.
pls be warmed, if u get swap downstream, u gg already.
so got alot of pressure, but got instructor there to save us
after swimming across the river, we had to swim back -.-
but swimming back was easiler cos got bigger pot hole XD
after tat was crossing the river in a group. we started with
3 people, circling as we move, den as a group( around 13 ppl )
in a arrow head formation. after everything was done, its
finally time for the wide water rafting. it was 1 of the
few most awesome and yet most crazy thing i've done XD
basically it's rafting down a rapid. and there are alot of
mini water fall along the way. i still rmb tat i save my
teammates like 3 to 4 times. everytime when hes about to fall
off the raft, i will pull his life jacket and nudge him back
into the raft XD well, not every1 survive the trip. it was
when we are going thru 1 of the "waterfall", 1 of the crew
fall into the water, and it was very funny. she wasnt suppose
to fall but was nudge in by the other guy who was recovering
from the impact. well, u have to go thru it to understand the
whole journey. so i will stop here. after reaching the target
location, we hike all the way to mountain sch. on the way there,
every1 was tired, but a few of us started singing song to keep
the atmosphere up. but den half way thru, it started raining!
and tats when every1 started to show care for the other mates,
and we became damn high. upon reaching the mountain sch, still
rainning, we split into 2 groups. girls will handle dinner(cooking)
while guys build the bashas(basic shelter). because it was rainning,
we had to build in the rain and think of anti flood measures.
in the end, the boy's basha become like a slum with the girls
become a real basha XD before the day ended, we all huddle up
and ate dinner. as it was very cold, the instructor build a
campfire and we all huddle up around it and chit chat. it was
fun. and tat's about all for day 2.
24Aug
day 3 of the camp. today, we will be doing kayaking and
high ropes. today was a freaking tired day for me as i had
a fever today and i nvr told any1. so we woke up, dunno wad
time, had breakfast and den safety briefing for the high ropes.
tis high rope is 1 of the most fun and memorable one. as i didnt
tell any1 i was sick, i was shaking throughout the high rope.
although i was the slowest and i drag my group back, every1
encouraged me and i move on for them. i didnt give up halfway
thru and tats the most important thing to me at tat time, as
we promised each other that no one gets left behind. im glad
tat no one give me black face cos i was slow, but all were
smiling and pushing me along the way. after tat, we hike back
to normad campsite where get our kayaks and we started kataking
down the river near the campsite. for me, i sat at the front,
which is the motor for the kayak, and a experience kayaker
was at the backseat, which is responsible for turning the kayak.
the most funniest thing tat happen in the whole kayak trip
was tat both my hands and legs cramp when i got splash by the
cold water XD but i suck it up and my teammate didnt notice it.
other den tat, the whole trip was all about nice scenary to me.
when we reach our target location, which is somewhere, i dunno
where, we had a hard time moving the kayaks upshore as there
was no river banks and we are all on muddy grounds. the girls
tranported the paddlers up first, and the guyz shift the kayaks
up. i stayed in the water and provide anchor for the kayaks and
raft. at this point of time, many of u will say if you have fever,
WHY ARE YOU STAYING IN THE COLD WATER! well, as mention earlier,
i nvr tell anyone so i just pretending nothing happned. as the
anchor, i realise tat it is a very important job as the anchor
has to anchor the rafts so it dosent get sweep downstream and
have to lift of the raft so the other member can pull it up.
after tat, we were transported back to normad. on the way back,
we spoted leeches on 1 of the camper thus we took action
and killed the leeches on the bus. im glad that no leeches where
stuck on me, as there was no lighter and we had to pull them
off. but the lucky thing is, they are all still babies.
upon reaching normad, we had a briefing b4 we called it a day.
25Aug
day 4, today we only had caving b4 going to the hotel.
after having breakfast, we all pack up and prepare ourself
to venture into the cave. at this point of time, i feel
pretty weak, and will feel dizzy with the slightest movement.
i told myself, in this camp, in my team, no one gets left
behind. thus i pushed on. upon entering the cave, its a sight
were you cant believe your eyes. it was DAMN INTERESTING!
there were inscriptions from the WW 2 and many many more.
but, we were all bluffed by the endless stairs that awaits.
the stairs were like staircase to hell. it was freaking long
and we had to climb alot of stairs. after like 30-60mins of stairs
climbing, we finally when off track and the real adventure begin.
first, we had to slide down a freaking 75degree slope. and
once again, the instructor did it as if it was nothing. i was
the last few to go down the slope but it wasnt tat bad as i
expected it to be. after the slope, we huddle up to have a
safety briefing and we broke up into 2 groups and we have to
exit the cave before high tide. although it was freaking dark
inside, u cant even see ur hands when they were right in front
of you. i shall not bored the readers with all the texts, as
all tis texts cant explain what it is like unless you try it
yourself. so when we exited the cave, we took alot of group photo
before overself cleaning up. tat's when i finally told my group
mate tat i had a fever XD as all the activities are over.
so we when to the hotel and we rested our bodies for awhile, before
gonig to Parkson mall to look around and some of them played bowling.
it was freaking cheap, compared to sg. after tat, we went to the
night market for dinner and den we move to a dark alley to play
fireworks before moving back to the hotel, as we cant bring the
fireworks back to sg, so we spam everything. at that everynight,
we hosted a mini party in 1 of the girls room till around 3am.
it was fun. and our lecturer came into our room to break the party,
as it was getting too noisey and we were disturbing other ppl.
26Aug
day 5, nothing much today, just packing up and heading back
to sg. when i reach sg, i went back to daiko clubroom and
there were still ppl inside =] so i gave them the pineapple
tarts tat i bought for them and chat for awhile before
heading back to sleep.

first place. at the end of the day, i still haven found
my place yet, but it ended great.

tat i would like to tok about today. its a house which
we knock but no1 answered the door. just as we were
about to leave, the door suddenly open, slowly, but there
was no 1 there. thus i called to check if theres any1,
but no 1 replied. den my group mate was scared so we
left the place. uptil now, we are still not sure if
it was tat thing, or the door just wasnt close well.

student come to sp and enjoy the special events tat we
put up for them. well, nothing much happened, except for
1 of the screen fell onto my friend's head and she was
sent to the hospital. the reson why the pole fell? i think
it was because they mounted everything on cables so the
base wasnt every stable, so when they unmount the screens,
it fell the wrong way. went to the girl's house on 15 nov,
and shes alright.
