7 days' post gona b long. I'll just cut it short since I bet u all has already read the tentatives.

Food:
Food provided are great throughout the 7 days. Mayb just one day, which I think they faced some problem with it.

Games:
All their games are very creative and nice. There's one with treasure-hunt like, The Da Vinci Code and all the other station games.

Talks and Workshops:
Most of the talks are very good and motivating. Just a few which are quite boring and made me feel really slpy.

Outdoor Challenge:
Kayaking and Flying Fox! in UM! It's great gteat great!! Me n Joo Ling went on the same kayak. It was fun..lazy-ing around the lake. Despite the incident where Eugene fell into the lake. I still duno whether is he avoiding from banging into our kayak that time. Srryy! He managed to get back in by himself though, with a lil help from his NUS mate, Ignatius.
Flying Foz is cool also!! That evil Edison on the other side of the rope to make sure that everyone "dip" into the lake when we were flying across? haha

Debate:
Everyone is given a chance to debate on stage in the camp. It's divided into two sessions. With different topics, ranging from nuclear, genetically modified food, genes of humans, space till d boring one, engineering skills in agricultural and industrial. I'm on for the last one. Consider me crapping up there as the 1st speaker. ha..

Public Speaking:
It's conducted by a guy from IEM. Sry, I can't remember his name again. volunteers up on stage to do the open table topics (impromptu styled) and he will judged them. Sry, I don't think I'm good enough for that yet. I'll leave it to the experts for that.

Tour:
One day trip in KL and Sel. To Spansion Sdn Bhd, Royal Selangor till Sunway Pyramid. Spansion is an electrical and electronic related company. So, ermm ermmmmmm.
Royal Selangor's good. Non-stop of snapping photos? Pewter is really expensive!
Finally, Pyramid! I went on with a group of UM Electrical 1st years. Walked around n have our dinner in KFC. =P Of course, we won't miss out the photos-taking!

Awareness (Outdoor session):
We are brought to the Tirantana Old Folks and Orphanage house in Desa Petaling. Some of the groups went to Taman Megah. We talked to them, entertained them....

Gala Dinner:
Forget about the mask- making. It's a disaster.haha. Again, photo shooting non stop! Group performances also. My group went on with modified Cinderalla Sketch/ Drama. Sad to say that Gary from our group had to leave early before we managed to get all these done. He left quite a lot of stuff for me to do on d sketch. =(
Oh, I forget to mention that the dinner is held in Dynasty Hotel. The food served is delicious! But I didn't manage to finish my deserts also, n the waiter took it away when I'm not there on my seat. Most of our cameras were almost out of battery d by the end of the dinner. haha.

Lots of leng lui n leng chai to see.

At last, I meet lots of ppl, from everywhere..from Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. It's really my pleasure meeting u guys.. Hope that we can keep in touch!
