My Responsibilities for the Game 2

THE FINAL COUNT DOWN
 
Since after the play day 1 was completely performed, all my fellow classmates became more energetic and more accountable to play own roles to the tasks assigned for the game 2 soon. Our motto is to make this language camp the GREATEST and the BEST language camp that Mr. G ever had. Since that we are all an adult, yet a diploma holder (except Baizura- matrix), we must show that by hook or by crook we can do that?!
I take the responsible of handling rewards for the participants of the camp. My co-members in this task are ANNA, NINIE and OSHIN. So, we start off our first meeting with planning on what categories of winners should be included and also types of special gifts that we want to reward them. We decided to give rewards on some selections such as for the Best Participant, the Best Group, the Best Drama Queen, Tanjung Bidara Idol and many more. If all of you guys want to know, that all gifts are ready!!! and they are gloriously be wrapped!. Wow!
We also have something for all facilitators, so don?t worry okay?   
 
During the camping, I?m incharge on safety; this is to make sure of participants? safety and well-being. This responsibility should be under ANNA, SHAIL, VENOT and me myself?. Other that that, I will perform for the group cheers (stay in the first line...).  I also participate in the ?surprise-surprise performance? dedicated especially our lecturer Mr. G, VIP guess and our kind participants. So, just wait and see!
?I believe I can
I believe I will
I believe I know my dreams are real
I believe I stand
I believe I?ll dance
I believe I?ll grow real soon and
That is what I do believe??

My Reflection for Play Day

The Indulging Play Day ? (-18.02.2006- in memories?.)
 
I was naturally had an energetic strength to start off the day. It was 18 FEBRUARY 2006 on Saturday morning as I woke up early as usual after my door was knocked by OSHIEN? yea Oshien? I?m heading to take my bath. Well, since the night before the day, I had prepared myself purposely for the play day ? the outfit should be in black color T-shirt and plus jeans (this might be BAE?s idea), yet all the game materials for my team (Ninie and me); ?THE SPEECHLESS? should be ready (the color coded cards with nouns, adjectives, progressive verbs and some additional conditions just to make people in trouble? and fun?).
It seemed ages I never had such a truly, deeply and madly play day since I left my childhood time, which I would rather spend the whole day playing with all my gangs. The play day really did remind me of those days I left behind; the joys, laughter and cheers, friendships, team spirits and not too bad to say such a ridiculous argumentation to defend for the sake of my team.  It was an indulging day for me having fun just like a primary school kid... hehehe?
Overall, I would say that I?m glad to have the day; I gained lots of experiences about handling games in an ESL classroom, became closer with my classmates and perhaps acted other than usual in the class. Not to forget to acknowledge my Language Games (SHL 3652) lecturer; Mr. Ghazali for his honest comments in term of improving my group?s game for this forthcoming Language Camp in Tanjung Bidara Resort, Melaka.
Sincerely, a bouquet of roses to the board of committee for your well done jobs.  Last but not least, Thanks so much for my dearest husband for his full supports and understanding me in any situations always all the time. Okay guys, keep in touch..!
 
Yours;
-NORLELAWATEE/Mrs. Aizan-

The Day

The day we have been waiting for is here. Tonight, we'll go to KTF and have fun. But before that, I'll try to make myself available for the afternoon session, our final meeting.

I photocopied the camp evaluation form. The participants will fill in the form at the end of the camp.

I'll bring my camera and handycam along. Maybe I can use some clips for my future class. The more reasons, you guys need to behave always.

Okay. Got to go to the mosque.

Responsibilities

I was given responsibility to be leader of student¡¦s
welfare. I worked with Hanim and Vimalah. I have
searched prayers that can be practiced by Muslim
participants during the language camp. At first time,
I got four prayers but Mr. G wanted a short and simple
with meaning that will be practiced everywhere and
every time in the camp. Lastly I got two simple and
familiar prayers. I hope all of you can practice the
prayers every time especially when we are in Tanjung
Bidara, Melaka. These prayers are crucial to protect
us from any bad things. May God bless us, guys!! I
have mentioned that we may perform prayers together in
the camp. Since a man used to be leader (Imam), I
asked help from Zuwairi to be our imam. He will also
recite prayers for us too. Mm..guys we will wait for
our new appearance of Ustaz Zuwairi ?º. As student¡¦s
welfare committee, we will be the middle person
between facilitators and the participants at the camp.
We may act as counselor or helper to deal any problems
occurred there. Besides that, I was given registration
part for the participants on the Friday. The
registration will be held at Dewan Seri Alam in Kolej
Tun Fatimah (KTF). I just wait any task or duty will
be given from our leader, Suhani. I hope I will do the
best for my part and hopefully all my friends will
give cooperation too.
During the English camp, Hanim and I will be
conducting our game, ¡§Magic Box¡¨ on Saturday in the
Slot B before having lunch. I hope that everything is
okay and I want to do the best for our game. Hanim,
we¡¦ll be the best!. I will be one of the
facilitators of the camp. My group is BROWN CAT. I
will work in pair with Dalea and this is my first time
I will work with her. I hope we will do our job well
and help the participants to love English.
o.k..byee¡K.good luck for language camp! Cayuk!

Last Minute Preparation

Last Minute Preparation

Time is gold, as my mum always says every morning when
I wake up. Time moves so fast and I am almost lost my
steps to catch it. For ?Magic Bo? game, my partner,
Hanim and l have done our extra materials like
coins, clues and explanation of question tag in
mahjung paper since we have panned to divide the large
group into two sections. I will handle one section and
Hanim will handle other section. We did some changes
like we will give some explanation about question tag
and be strict with the rule of our game (all
participant must use correct question tag, if not
their marks will be deducted). Many things to
consider, it seems hard and scary for me to imagine
how our game will be conducted in the real language
camp.
Oh my goodness! There are so many things to be done.
My friends and I practice cheers and singing every
evening at Café. At first I face problem because this
is my first time I am being exposed to heavy music. It
made me suffered in headache quite some time however I
try to deal with this situation. For the real
performance, I need to memorize the lyrics of camp
song and cheers too. It?s hard task for me because I
didn?t love English song very much. However I tried
my best for it. I hope that all people will enjoy our
performance.
For the camp, I will become a facilitator of BROWN CAT
group. My partner is Dalea. Now we are searching for
our group cheers and song for Song Idol. This is just
a preparation for in case our members face problems to
create cheers and choose song. However, we will
encourage our members to use their effort first. Guys,
whatever happen, good luck for our language camp! Do
the best among the best! May God bless all of us.

Last minute preparation 
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen  percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name !!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
These are the lines that have been yelled every evening at K13! Guys? remember those lines?!  It took us more than 5 days I guess, to prepare the whole set of cheers with the steps. Apart from this we have to memorise a song for the group singing as well. It is fun practising for the camp for we obviously want to bestow our best on that very day.
Who can?t get jaded with our team?all bubbly, sparkling, energetic and always full of life! That?s the way we should be?take things easy and not get stressed for this is not the proper time for us to voice out our dissatisfaction or frustration. We must bear in mind that all the task allocated for all of us are not an easy one. Everyone has to put in their best to satisfy the rest. We as a grown up kids must have the ability and capability to appreciate peoples? hardship and sleepless nights. Right?!
          Me and Diana took a day to find suitable picture for Drawing Blind for we don?t want the participants to comment or complain about it later. We had fun actually?even we were describing the way to draw it while sketching it on the ?mahjong paper? and it does look cute, isn?t it Diana? As for our blindfold we are still finding for one, but no worries we will be all set by tomorrow?after all we have helpful and honey-like team mates.
          I am not very sure whether we will be carrying out the Last Letter game or not, but to be on the safe site, me and Diana put our effort on that too. We prepared list of words based on the category that we have restricted. We even went for a mini and quick shopping to get the materials for ?rewards? and to get some personal things for the camp as well. I need to get those reward shapes pasted with double sided tape by tonight with the help of Aso, Poo and Diana? these three angels are my best cronies !
          Oh god?there are still works need to be done together with the list of our assignments ! We are all in the same boat! Yesterday night I was preparing the backup cheers for GREEN CATS and it still need to be modified. Everything is tiring but I can?t rebuff the fun that we had throughout the preparation for the camp. The three of us are in K9 and we have to travel to K13; thanks to Bae for picking us up on the first day and the rest of the days we either took bus or hitch-hike Diana?s car ! Without her, life will be even harder?! 10000 thanks to Phooi Yan !
          That is all for now because I still have pending works and the main thing is I need go and get packed ! C you guys tonight !

LAST MINUTE PREPARATION?.
 
Hai everyone?.
 
This is the best part. What people normally do when they lack of time? As for me, I am still busy preparing my material for ?Chinese Whisper?. I need to select song for our own group which I choose I?M LIKE A BIRD by Nelly Furtado.
 
Everyday we have our rehearsal on cheer, and this is to make sure that we won?t forget our steps and the lyric. Yesterday I was memorizing the songs and the cheer lyric until I fall asleep. I did not realize that I did not shut down the computer, lock my room door, and switch off the light. When I woke up this morning, I was really surprised because the lyric paper is still with me on the bed. Well this is part of life that I have to go through before the camp. I don?t want to forget the lyric while on stage because this will bring embarrassment not only to me but the whole 3rd year teslians. I want to do the best for our team. The best part is Diana keep dancing and singing so that she won?t forget the lines. She is standing in front for the stage performance and she keep ask us to teach her. I felt funny because not I?m the only one crack my head for the camp.
 
Two days ago, I did my shopping on what to bring for the camp. Eventhough it is only consider 2 days, but you know girls. Girls will pack things for two day like for two weeks. Don?t forget to bring cap because it?s really hot day nowadays. Just to protect your skin and use a lot of sun block lotions. Bring your camera along. We can take picture because this is one in a lifetime you really get to know about your friends.
 
I would like to thank my friends, Diana, Vim and Povanes for their moral support. Thank you to Jehan and Bae who always informed me if there is rehearsal going on and the latest news so that I won?t get lost. So, tomorrow is the day that we all waiting for. Hope everthing turn out right.

Camp-hold chores...!!!

Responsibilities for the Language Camp ?

 
           
Hi, we meet again !
 
Our responsibilities were segregated by Bae and I am sure she had a hard time preparing it . I was set under Students Welfare with Mazliza and Hanim; Documentation and Photography with Pooh, Sal, Shylen and Lenny; Drama Presentation and as a facilitator with Nik . I am happy with all the responsibilities given to me for all my teammates are hardworking and responsible as well .
            As for the Students Welfare, we are required to prepare prayers for the Muslims which will be taken care by Mazliza and Hanim . I need to prepare a few games for the non-Muslims while the Muslims are out for their prayers . I was asked to prepare either games or any activities related to English Language . I decided to prepare the ?Last Letter? or ?Poison Box? to be carried at the particular slot .
            I really need to thank Pooh, Sal and Lenny for doing the pre-camp preparation which is preparing the manual . It is not an easy job, they have to edit, arrange them and standardise the whole set . I couldn?t make it on that day because I have something important to do on that day . We managed to segregate our job and will prepare the post-camp documentation and photography together . Thanks a lot guys!
            We chose fairytales as our main idea for the drama presentation on Saturday night . The students have to continue the story from the original fairy tale . For example, they have to come out with a drama of Cinderella II . This will be the continuation from the original Cinderella; what happens after she married the Prince? Isn?t it fun?!
We decided to use two types of fairy tales . The facilitators will provide the titles of the fairy tales . I am sure that the participants will enjoy this drama session .
            Finally, Nik is my facilitating partner throughout the camp and guess what we are the GREEN CATS ! The colour that I hate most ! But? it?s ok, the colour doesn?t matter anymore because I have a vivacious partner ?NIK? who I am very sure will make our group lively and cheerful all the time?
            Oops?I forgot the latest job that have been assigned to the four of us ; me, Pooh, Aso and Diana. It is to prepare the rewards for the participants. So, we decided to come out with round shaped cards which will be given to the groups if they win any games. The cards will be delivered to the facilitators earlier. The participants are required to paste the rewards they?ve won on the mahjong paper which will be provided on Friday night .
            Ok guys? that?s all for my responsibilities? I hope that we will have maximum fun and minimum poignant !

responsibilities.......

MY RESPONSIBILITIES?..
 
HAI EVERYONE??.
 
I?m responsible for cleanliness. I shared the responsibilities with Jehan, Hanim, Baizura and Azie. We have to make sure that all the participants follow the rules and clean up the campsite before leaving the camp. We are responsible to take care of the camp area. We need to make sure there is not rubbish or unwanted things that can spoilt the camp area. We have to make sure that the washroom and the rooms are well hygiene. There is competition where participants need to collect as much rubbish as they can collect and the winner will be rewarded. I?m also in the cheer group team with leader Lenny. Lenny and Mimi did a good job by choosing the cheer song. Eventhough this is my first time in cheerleading, I only can give my moral support.
 
For the rewards, Vimalah, Povanes, Diana and I ( my best buddies since 1st semester ) bought sticker with round shape. We will used it for identify which group win the most. We stick it at mahjung paper to find out which group has the most stickers. This will encourage the participants to be more energetic while participating in the game.
 
Povanes ( my cute teamate) and I are team for the game ?Chinese Whisper?. We prepared 5 ?Tongue Twister?. Both of us doing the cutting and pasting the materials. This game needs students to be good in listening and speaking skills besides reading. They need to have good skills of memorizing. This game you need to know not the meaning of the sentence but the whole sentences. The participants need to identify whether the sentence used past tense or present tense, singular or plural. At the end of the game, one of the members needs to write the answer on a piece of mahjung paper and say it loud to the rest of the group.
 
Lenny and I are facilitating partner. To be honest, I never work with Lenny before, and I?m looking forward to work with my new partner. Hopefully both of us can have such a wonderful time with the participants. We need to know the participants well. We?ll do ice-breaking and we do activities together. We need to come out with our group cheer and song. I find the song and Lenny in charge of finding the cheer for our group.
Last but not least, thank you to everybody.

Final Minute Preparations
 
Throughout the weeks of preparation, we as a team had to go through lots of hurdles. Till the last minute, we are still preparing for the Language Camp. Our main aim is to make this camp a great success and we didn?t even mind those sleepless nights. To keep me awake, I had to constantly chew on something and I believe I might have put on some weight. But when I see the fruit of our labour, nothing bothers me. It will be a great success.
 
Preparing the manuals did gave us a hard time. Editing, standardizing and organizing the manuals was an on going job. We can?t afford to make any mistakes. Sal, Len,Vim and Shai have been a great help. Without them, the manuals wouldn?t have been able to be produced as the way it is now. I believe, a good combination of  members will always produce a fruitful result.
 
Rehearsing for the cheerleading was indeed fun and exciting. Though we had practiced almost everyday, we can?t deny the fun we had. Encouraging and teasing one another and at the same time, helping each other to master the cheersong and the steps.
 
At this point I need to thank some kind hearted ones for their sacrifices, contribution and helping out during the process of editing. Sal and Nik, thanks a lot for the special treatment which I received upon arriving to your room. Sal and Len, it wouldn?t be possible to come out with the manuals, without your Krashen alike brain. Not forgetting the TESLians from the 13 College. Girls, you did a good performance. Bae, thank you for driving me safely back to my college. Not forgetting Sue, Vim, Aso and Diana, who gave me their morale support. Last but not least, all the kind souls who had rendered their help physically or mentally.

Camp Chores!

Reflection 2
Language Camp Tasks
 
For the Language Camp, every 3rd year TESLians are given several different tasks to perform. Each individual?s effort has contributed to the upcoming of the Language Camp. I am given the task of Photography and Documenting. Together with Sal, Len, Vim and Shai, we are required to edit each and everyone?s manual. Each manual is divided into facilitator?s manual and students?s manual. We sacrificed one of our weekends to complete the manuals. To tell the truth, the job wasn?t as easy as I thought. We had to brainstorm together in order to produce an error proof manual. We were quite positive about the outcome of the manuals. To our favour, everyone liked it. Nothing would have made us more happy than receiving good responds.
 
The responsibility that gave me a hard time is to be in the cheerleading. As it was a new exposure to me, I let the professional handle the job. I should say, Len and Mimie had done a wonderful job in selecting the cheers and choreographing the steps. All I can do was to join in the fun and give my morale support. It was fun to be one of the cheerleaders.
 
Rewards preparation responsibility came over to Aso, Vim, Diana and me. In the beginning, we were lost. However, after a thorough discussion, we decided to use round shapes stickers as rewards. The group with the most round shapes stickers, is declared the overall winner. But, sorry to say, we were unable to do it due to our hectic schedule. We came up with the fastest and easiest way which was to buy the round shapes! It made our life easier.
 
Among the responsibility assigned to me, being one of the facilitators is the toughest job, I suppose. Thank God, a sweet character like Watie, made things easier for me. We are assigned to the Group Pink Cat! Hope we could bring the best from our Pink Cats! To other cats out there, beware. Pink cats going to knock you out!

Hi Beautiful People!

Reflection 1
Play Day
 
?That?s a relief!? Those were the first words I uttered to Asotha, my team mate, once we had finished with our language game presentation. We did a game on tongue twister which is called the ?Chinese whisper?. The purpose of the ?Play Day? which was held on the 18 February 2006 was to give the 3rd year TESL students an exposure to conducting games for the Language Camp. After playing each of the games, the plus and minus points of that particular game was highlighted. This was to ensure that the game would be an error proof during the camp. I learn that games involve many factors; rules, competition, relaxation and learning, in particular. The day was packed with exciting and fun games. I noticed that, while playing those games, competition was very important because it stimulated and encouraged us to participate in the activity since naturally we wanted to beat the other teams.  While playing, we had fun, relax, exercise and tease one another. Apart from having fun, we learn at the same time. It brought me back to my school days. Cheering and encouraging one another. Despite the fact that we lost at some games, we were happy for those who won. That?s the strength of mind which I liked in my friends. It was a day to add into my memoirs. Before I wrap up my reflection, I would like to extend my heartiest congratulation to each and evryone of the 3rd year TESLians for their never-ending determination and support. The ?Play Day? was a great success. This wouldn?t be possible, if not for the trust one kind soul had in us. Thank you, Mr.G.

        This is the last day before we go to language camp. basically everything has been prepared. There's only a minor things for me to do, but I believe by today, everything will be settle down. I need to check back our facilitator's manual and get reading for packing.

thanks Sal and Nik for helping me out with my materials....i love you guys...and not forgotten to Jue also....muahsss.....i thought that we could not get the sponsorship for our materials, so, i decided to recycled the manila cards from last year's  teaching pratice and thank you so much to Jay and Ana, for allowing me to use some of their recycled manila cards too.....hugs and kisses to all of you....
 
Cheer practice has been good, although the energy level is still low....i do hope for some miracle to happen tonight...So help me God.....
 
i went shopping with Sal yesterday....we bought  new tees...she bought new shoes, new jeans as well...now, that's the spirit my dear.....hehehehehe....we can't wait for the language camp...Tanjung Bidara, here we come.....
 
I have some advice that i try my very best to understand as well...sometimes, life doesn?t work out the way you think it?s going to be and there really is not always an answer. Seriously though, sometimes things just don?t work out right, you get that painful feeling in your heart and you just want to collapse under the stress.  However, at some point, we have to learn to let go.  We have to let go of the events that you can?t control and put faith into the idea that everything does happen for a reason.  If you can slowly release yourself from your stress and worry, eventually you will find an inner strength and conviction inside of you that you had forgotten it was there all along.  When you learn to let go of what you can?t control, then you will find peace in the end. I strongly believe in that now....thanks Sal and Nik.....my best friends for L.I.F.E!!!!!!
 
p/s GALS, LET'S KICK SOME A** TONITE!!!!!!!!!!

My Responsibilities....My Commitments.......My Way....

As i sit here in front of my computer, anxiously to look back what I have done so far, or have been struggling to learn, throughout my life, I realize that, it is a rather difficult  to accomplish.  However, that?s what I am supposed to do on a eport,  to put my thoughts to words. It's just that, nothing I write seems good enough.  Because the truth is, I do not know why things in life work the way it does...sometimes..... The reflections I am about to reveal are from an intense amount of incidents, opportunities, mistakes and blessings throughout my life. 
 
I think that I have made it this far because I am constantly trying to master the art of compassion in everything i do....Me and Nik, two "unique" individual who has no background at all in designing...(the only thing we're good at, is making hand-made cards....hehehehehe), were assigned to come up with the language camp pamphlet....we took the time and efforts in loking for some of templates form the net....i even went to the library  and take a look all those creative art designing books, which, i have problemsin understanding it....thank God,we managed to design "our" pamphlet...although nothing special about it, but, what really matters in the end of the day,is the amount of efforts that both of us put into....it's original...it's OURS...but, i was surprised to know that the pamphlet that both me and nik designed was not "fully accepted"....only 10 percent of what we designed featured in the final outcome of the pamphlet...then, after quite sometimes, i thought that, i can never be good enough at that pariticular task, i don't blame anyone for that...however, i'm happy with the designs,i would like to say thank you for those of you who willingly to take the time in helping us and i shouldn't have written this report, because, i do not want to take creadits for other people's job.
 
Group cheer???hhhmmmm.....I try to understand why people are acting like they do and instead of judging them based on my experiences, I try to hold them for their own actions based on their own experiences.  To be honest, taking this approach in interacting with other people has been a way for developing patience and a genuine concern for the well being of others, especially when it comes to teamwork. 
 
i would like to thank my partner in crime,Mimie for helping me, for all the commitments you have put into....(mimie, you are fun to work with, muaahhsss...), be there when i needed you most, and for being so patient with me....i know, it's hard to work with me,but, i'm glad that we both took the differences apart and try to focus on our goals instead.Mimie, you are wonderful....and not forgotten also to Sal and Nik for the support and that's what friends are for, together through thick and thin...rite??!!!!!
 
i hope you guys love the cheer, ala "Hip Hop" with a little bit of Fort Minor (mike shinoda is mine!!!!!!), Ashlee Simpsons and Missy Elliot on it, and thanks for the routine too Mimie....i could not have done it myself, without you...however, i really hope for more energy, more attitudes and my God, it's cheer....and we supposed to be loud and with a lilttle bit of that "attitude".....i never join any school cheerleading before, and that's maybe the reason why i am not popular at schools (hhhmmmm....)...however, i never give up.....i dare to try something new, i took the risk, and  i love hip hop music, i want to make a change, i want something fresh...something new....
 
Obviously, good people skills are a necessity for success in life, but I have come to realize that if I don?t accept myself, I certainly won?t be able to accept others.  Now, that is a lot easier said than done.  Constantly, having to check up on yourself and making sure you tend to your needs is actually a really hard thing to do. What?s even harder is listening to myself.  Each time I forget who I am, it is guaranteed that life is going to give me a hard time to let me know that I need to make myself a priority. After all, if you don?t make yourself your number one priority, no one else is...That's for sure.
 
As for tonight performances, i've tried my very best, so, it's up to you guys to decide what is best for the rest of us....for the rest of the team...
 
p/s a zillion thanks for all of you who has been very concern about me, for the past 3 weeks after the accident...thank you...
 
"If you dream alone, it's just a dream...If you dream it together, it's a reality...."
 
Sincerely yours,
LeNY ^-^ muffy _len@yahoo.com.

Hi....That?s a lot to talk about 18th February 2006.Three weeks before the play day, I have planned other programs to be carried out with a few friends of mine on 17th to 19th February. However, when Bae told that the play day would be on 18th?.I felt like crying. Oh no?. I have to postpone my plan. Although I have agreed to join my friends, this play day was far more important and I must come. Luckily they understood my situation. Nevertheless I did not feel too disappointed because this play day must be pleasurable and worthwhile as all my course mates and I were going to participate in language games which we could get a chance to share great time together as well. At least I still can spend my time here with all fellow friends experiencing the activities that we cannot do so often. Actually I was eager to start the actions since ordinary Saturday was just a boring day. But this time it was different, we would be in the spirit of the games almost the whole day.
            The early morning started as usual until four of us involved in car accident. It really shocked me but luckily thank God that we were all safe. To Lenn?I feel sorry for the thing happened to you. Meanwhile, although Iri got bruise on her leg, she managed to cope with it very well. She still actively jumped and run although it was quite painful. Well done! It could not bother you at all indeed. You still survived until the end? By the way, nik, iri and I arrived late at KTF. Thank you to yana and kak nini who fetched us.Diana Lee and Vimalah has began their game. Once joined the others in the game, the mood change immediately and I almost forgot about the accident. People in the group also looked enjoy the game. I really miss such enjoyable moment.
            From the experience here, I learnt how to be a good facilitator and teacher. I like the various games we have had here. Most of the games were familiar to me but playing with different people with a range of characters rather gave a brand new experience. For me, the best part was when I have opportunity to run as fast as I can in WHOSE CLUES? game. Finally I could get rid off stress and sleepiness. Since the activities were conducted indoor with air conditioner, it is not as tired as having it outdoor. Regarding to PITFALL game (iri and I), there is a few things that need to be changed and improved.
Thank you so much to Mr. G and beloved friends for all comments and recommendations. I hope all of us will attempt to overcome weaknesses in order to make our camp successful. Good luck for all!!!

Last minute preparations

Hi guys…come again…
 
The 3rd years Teslian, are exiting to count the day. The day will come. But to achieve the enjoyment of the camp, there are so many task need to be considered. Thanks to Bae as a great director. She was able to handle all the problems and obstacles. Last night, Suhaila and Bae had managed to get our camp T-shirt. It was like what we have expected to get. Nice, beautiful and I believe everyone will look stunning in this t-shirt. We want to make surprise. It is really surprise. I hope the T-shirt will motivate us to finish our final task before we get there. Me as a treasurer had managed to buy and collect everything that I need to do. The money is enough for the camp. There is no balance anymore except for the ribbons.
Next we are still preparing our materials for 10 groups of participants. It is hard task. It is really need concentration, time and effort. Without these materials, the language camp is meaningless. The facilitators’ task is to make sure the material is ready before we go to the camp. We also have been asked to prepare the group cheer and the group song for our own group. We are also at the last stage of practicing our camp cheer and camp songs that will be rehearsed by this Friday with final briefing to make sure everybody is on the right track. We also have surprise for the participant and the lecturer. We will wait and see. All the approval letters and documentation already prepared and Dalea, our secretary, it has been submitted.
Even our body and mind were exhausted, but I know you are really enthusiast to feel this exiting event. This is the time for us to enjoy and have fun together. (Mr. Tiger). Before I rest my case, I would like to wish good luck to everybody and I hope we can perform the best than we can as what we promise as one committee.
