My Sec 1 Camp

Two days ago, on Wednesday, the whole sec 1 cohort went for a camp on Saint John's Island. It was really tiring but fun! The camp lasted for 3D2N. On the 1st day, we were introduced to our instructors and had a causality challenge. We had to move the "causality" to different stations where we had to complete a variety of challenges within a time limit. The 1st challenge was to do 50 push-ups. It was really tough! But it was not as tough as the 2nd nor 3rd challenge. The 2nd challenge was that the whole group(16 people) have to have only 6 feet and 5 hands on the ground. Sad to say, we gave up the challenge and moved on to the next one. The 3rd challenge was to move up a slope with our legs hooked around the waist of the person in front of us. After that, the time limit was up and we had to gather together at the basketball court. We were also introduced to some cheers like the hungry cheer which we do before each meal. We did some campfire preparation on the 1st day too.
The 2nd day was the most tiring and fun part of the camp(in my opinion). First, we did a few team-building stuff. We had to move 10 plastic cups from point A to point B and then stack them up into a pyramid. The instructors must like pyramids a lot because our next challenge was to make a human pyramid! It was tough but with the help of everyone, we managed to complete it. After that, we played Multi-Level Captain's Ball in the afternoon. There were different types of balls. The smaller the ball, the more points it was worth. The balls and their points are listed below.
Soccer ball: 10 points
Volleyball: 20 points
Tennis ball: 30 points
Plastic ball the size of a tennis ball: 40 points
Ping-pong ball sized rubber ball: 50 points
Water bomb mixed with detergent: 100 points
Later at night, we had our campfire! My group danced and sang to Boom Boom Pow(not sure I got the spelling correct). Some groups performed a skit, some shouted cheers and some danced and sang, but we all had lots and lots of fun.
We didn't do much on the 3rd day. We cleaned up the area, had breakfast and went home. Oh how comfortable my bed was compared to my sleeping bag. Home Sweet Home!

Down with supplements!
A lot of people buy intelligence supplements for their kids, especially during exam time(e.g.Brand's Essence of Chcken). But is it really necessary? No one knows whether those supplements really work. Down with supplements, I say. We should not depend on supplements to increase our intelligence(not that they do). Instead, we should study hard for our examinations and receive good results by our own efforts, not with supplements. What if your child consumed a supplement before an exam and got good grades? They will feel that their results are not their own results and feel depressed that they might not receive as good grades without those supplements and so will want to buy more and more supplements which is a waste of time and money. What if the company stops producing those supplements? Your child will feel unprepared to sit for the examination and will not be as confident of success which will work against them. So, stop buying intelligence supplements.
