YF Camp 2009 @ PeaceHeaven, Genting Highlands

YF Camp 2009 which is held at PeaceHeaven, Genting Highlands from 30thMay - 1st June 2009. The camp was a definite success!!!! With a whooping 49 participants consisting of Yf-ers and non Yf-ers. Yahooo~~~ we sat there by bus and church van. the journey was from 7.30 to around 12.30 i think. i am gonna blog it in days. (:

Saturday, 30th May 2009.
When we reach there, we put our bags in the kitchen and ate our lunch. Considering we were like hungry animals, the food was cleaned up within a few minutes. LOL, we had steamed fish, fried egg with minced meat and a veg (i forgotten). One thing i am surprised is that, we must be disciplined as in, after eating, we must put the plates and stuffs into the bins that were prepared, stack up the chairs and wipe the table. I only scooped the rice and stack the chairs. i din wipe the table. Later on, we unpacked and went to the seminar hall. we had ice breaker to warm ourselves up. (: the weather there is soooooo nice!!! cooling!!! yahoo!!! hehe, it was soo different from Batu Pahat weather. ishhh, anyways back to camp. we are staying in the dorm. and of coz, gals and guys were seperated. And the boys room, although it has only around 19 ppl, it sounded like 199 stomping elephants. 1 minute we were like not so close, like erm strangers. The next, we were like buddies who haven't seen each other for a long time. -.-

When bathing, if dun have hot water, we would straight freeze when come in contact with the freeezing water. hahahas... and knowing us, rowdy bunch of boys, we shamelessly walked here and there (in the dorm and to the toilet) with only our underwear on. hahahas, it was fun! AND the thing is our dorm is quite low u c. so our window is overlooking the road which is leading to the carpack. therefore, anyone who walks on that road can c right into our dorm. We were like so syok sendiri changing our clothes and pants (with underwear on of coz) when suddenly we heard some gals giggling. A guy exclaimed," WEyy!!! got gals looking at us changing clothes!!!" hahhahas.... Kit Siew kena the most coz he changed right next to the window. Luckily, the gals were part of the camp, so it was alright. At night, I would give anything, ANYTHING just to have a good night sleep. Samuel and gang were like on drugs. SUper high and talkative and loud!

Sunday is the best and the most hectic day. hahahha... Our camp theme is L-O-V-E, LOVE!!! The honourary speaker is none other than .... *drumss roll* ... Reverend William Wan!!! At first sight, i tot he was 50 plus person. But i had the shock of the day when i saw his Biodata. He is actually 63 years old with 3 grandchildren!!!!! the eldest is 13 years old. He looks friggin young! Hahaha.... and his session/theme talk is super nice. He noes how to interact with us and jokes while imparting his knowledge to us. Frankly, i listened to the whole theme talk lerh... i learned sooo much!!! Later on, we had a Q&A session. This session was initiated by the Reverend himself. It's divided into 2 parts. the 1st is about life and Love, 2nd is about religion. i wrote a question. And, he answered it well.. i now noe what to do. furthermore, there were many thought-provoking questions, which the reverend answered with ease. I am impressed. The 2nd Q&A continued after lunch/siesta. He managed to answered a few as time was not enough. We were moving to the game time!!! First off is station game then extreme sports. Both i will explain in a diff post (: After games, then we had our bath and dinner.

At night, it was the Theme Talk again. Seriously, each theme talk, i am always blown away. I mean, his speech is soo soo true and captivating. Later on, it is family time (: we used this family time to practice the sketch that we were suppose to present during SuperStar time which is later on. Our sketch must have the following criterias :

Cartoon character : Doraemon
Special character : Obama
Setting : Hawaii
Theme : Redemption

We had the plot ready, all thanks to Elaine and Jayn and others for the idea. The sketch i will write in another post ASAP as it;s too long and i dun have the original script with me. heh... We have sooo much fun!!! *at this point, i really miss the times i had in camp*

After SuperStar time, it was already 12.30 am. and Sern Wang gave us till 1 am. everyone else slept. except for me, joshua, gabriel, Derrick, Elaine and Sern Wang. I dinno they were awake. I went down just to take some fresh air. The air is totally refreshing. and i like the peace and tranquility which i never experienced b4. The cooling and moist air, peace, quietness and the calmness. I took this opportunity to pray for a long time. immediately, i feel, ermm... what's the word, filled? i dunno how to explain. Anywayz, later, Gab joined me and we both enjoyed the view of Genting and stars and scenery. So romantic. XD XD... jkjk... Later we both went into the foyer and chatted with swang, Der, Josh and Elaine till around 3. swang slept first. Followed by me, Der, Josh and Gab. Elaine slept the latest, she preparing for devotion for tomorrow. She and Josh sacrificed a lot for our group. Lovesss them sooo muchie!!! XOXO for them (:
