On 9th to 10th of May 2009 the senior students guided by Mr. Louis, Mr. Francis, Mr. Wong, Ms Aun Lih and Mrs. Alegan went to Cameron Highland for Leadership Camp. This is my first experience going out for a leadership camp in Malaysia.
Day 1
The day we have been waiting arrived and we depart for Cameron Highland at 8:15 a.m. by bus. We first stop at Brinchang for some food. Than at 10:30 a.m. we arrive at our hostel, Barre IJ Center. The girls are in (4get the name =P )Dorm and boys are in Hibiscus Dorm. Next we have a Leadership Reflection – “The Power of One”. We watch some videos which reflected on the power of one. Then we have Team Building Activities, the leader came out with some games such as Truth or Dare, etc. We had one game which we have to go to the opposite sex and say “honey, I love you, Please smile” and if the person of the opposite sex didn’t smile, she/he has to say back “Honey, I love you too, but I just can’t smile”. Or if the person smiles, the person have to do it to other person. It’s really fun playing this game. Next we had lunch. After having lunch, we went to the Tea Estate. The road going to the Tea Farm is so risky. We went around and had some food and drinks in “ Tea-Ria“. Then we went back to the hostel and get some rest. Spent most of the 2 hours at the hall. Most of us enjoy playing some card games, listening to songs, playing guitar, talk on the phone or talk. At 6:30 p.m. We have another Team Building activities. Then only we have our Dinner. After dinner we have another Leadership Reflection – “The Power of The Dream”. Hong Yan, Melanie, Nikika, Shion Beak are in my group. We do about Charles . The weird thing is that I didn’t feel nervous at all. While usually I feel really nervous to present something or talk in front of many people. We went out for supper. It’s really cool that in the bus, there are blue lights on. I’m like “WOW! Awesome!” Chee Wai starts to play a song on his iPhone, “Right Round”. And I don’t know who start to sing it and end up everyone singing it. It’s fun though. We reach our destination, end up going to night market as most of us wanted to go to night market. Well, this is my first time going to a night market; usually I wouldn’t be allowed to go. Bought something for my sister too. Then we went back to the hostel for Overnight stay. All of us went to the hall, as usually. We stay in the hall until 12 p.m. If I’m not mistaken. The girls end up sleeping at 2 something.
Day 2
Ms. Aun Lih wakes us up at 6:30 a.m. We get ready for the Jungle Tracking. We had our breakfast at 8 a.m. At 8:30 we had our Jungle Tracking. We go to Mount Jasar. Going up the mountain wasn’t that adventures for me. But we had a tragedy, I don’t know who bother the wasp hives and cause more than 3 people injured. For going down the mountain we use another way which is longer than the way we went up. It is more adventures. There are lots of landslides. We kind of have to slide down. I’m lucky that I bring another extra shoes. After a long 5 hours walk we finally finish the Jungle Tracking. When we get back to the hostel, all of us quickly get clean. Then we pack our things and go to the bus to put our bags. We had lunch before we check-out. We stop at flower market in Brinchang. I went to the Strawberry farm with some other friends. End up only buying flower for mother’s day. Then only we depart for Ipoh. We arrive safely at Ipoh around 6:30 p.m. Everyone was tired but happy that we had such a good time together. I'm looking forward for the next Leadership Camp ;)
