Start of Term 2

Saturday, March 29, 2008

♥ 2:50 PM

Since the start of term 2 week 1,many things have happened and i feel that it is only right that everyone is allowed a chance to catch up on what 3D has done so far =D

The first week of the term was tiring as usual,with many people still having the Holiday Blues.I believe most of us spent our holidays coming back to school and rushing our tons of holiday homework.On the first PE lesson of the term which was rudely interupted by a photo-taking session,instead of doing the usual Rugby (don't feel sad Lutfan...) ,we were introduced to a new sport,Badminton.Most of us enjoyed it,i guess.

Our Biology lesson was rather shocking too.Instead of good old Mdm Nabilah,Miss Shireen would be taking over her lessons and teaching us Bio instead.Shan't comment on her lessons here as every teacher has different teaching methods.

Physics and Chemistry lessons are enjoyable as usual with Mr Liang telling us cold jokes and Mrs Peh giving us Chemistry tests ever so often.

English was fun! Thanks to Mdm Ow who has put in so much effort into planning interesting English lessons for us!!

A and E-maths was made interesting by Mr Su once again.

S.S is somewhat difficult to understand and instead of staying in the classroom we have a mass lecture in the Av room with other Secondary 3 classes.

No comment about Mother Tongue...

Hope that everyone has been studying hard and Lastly,

Heres wishing a Happy 15th Birthday to Lin Chun !!

From now on,anyone who wishes to inform the class of their upcoming Birthday will have a post on the class blog specially dedicated to wishing them a Happy Birthday!

Sec3 Overseas Camp

♥ 6:52 PM

3D is back from the 4D3N Sec3 Overseas Camp at the Kahang Organic Rice Eco Farm (KOREF) !!!

It was an interesting and fun camp,where many of us were exposed to many different things we may have never experienced in Singapore.Throughout the 4D3N,we faced violent weather,muddy campsites and many other unfavourable conditions.
But we managed to pull through as a class and showed the rest of the cohort what 3D is made up of during the campfire night.

Day 1
We received our Sec 3 Overseas cap T-shirt as well as class T-shirt in the morning when the Sec3 cohort was gathered at the parade square.Shortly after,we set off on a long bus journey towards KOREF.The prefects were leading the class in pop songs,some people were catching some sleep while others were playing Bridge..

Raft-building was fun.Working together in teams of 6-7 to build a raft isn't easy.Basically we were provided raw materials (barrels,tree logs and rope) and are supposed to make a 2-seater raft under an hour.Most of us barely managed to make a floating raft but nevertheless we had a good laugh at ourselves when the raft came apart,piece by piece in the water...

Pitching our tents in the rain that day made the inside of our tents Flooded with rainwater.
Eventually we managed to make it rather dry.

Eating our meals was very very very chaotic.
How do you expect 170 people to squeeze into that tiny little cookhouse at the same time?
However i realised that organic food isn't that bad after all when you are starving..

We bathed in toilets full of mud and grass and squeezed together into a small tent to sleep

Lights out at 11oohrs...

Day 2

Went hiking at Gunung Lambak in the morning.During the bus journey to Gunung Lambuk,we played bridge again =)
Anyway,the climb was not easy.There were no paths paved nicely for us to climb.We had to use grab on to trees and ropes to slowly ascend Gunung Lambak.
We took a few photos along the way which are currently with Quinn..

Had Chicken rice for lunch at the car park near Gunung Lambak after which we headed back to KOREF.

Had our nature walk with a very knowledgable instructor.He thought us about survival in the forest and explained the importance of Forests in our world.

And er,along the way,there were leeches.Caleb had a leech attached to his wrist sucking his blood.The leech was initially very thing and small but after sucking so much blood...it became fat and thick,about the size of your little finger...
Too bad the leech dropped off before we could take a picture.

Had our Nightwalk at night.Duh.....

Initially we thought that we would have to walk one by one,alone.But instead the class was divided into 2 groups and was lined up in a single file each.We are to walk in a "choot-choot train" manner in pitch black darkness.To my surprise,there was no one attempting to scare us and the nightwalk turned out to be rather enjoyable.Had a great time once again,thanks Instructors!!

We somewhat started preparing for our campfire today..

Lights out at 1115hrs...

Day 3

Woke up early as usual.Everyone was with mixed feelings as today was the last day we had in KOREF.

Started the day by doing the Bamboo rafting.There were 2 types of bamboo rafting,2-man and 4-man.
It was fun rafting about on a large paddy field that had a depth of water up to your knees,the view was fantastic as well.
And Joon Hao (champion) did something he called "kamikaze" to me and Lin Chun's 2-man raft which i shall not elaborate further..
For the 4-man raft,it was Way way way way more successful.The only difference was that we had to stand on the raft instead of sit.

Next was the Water Obstacles where we had to pair up to complete.Most of the obstacles required us to balance on a small wooden log and move from place to place.
No one managed to complete the whole course without falling into the water,i guess.
'Cos those that were dry were pushed back into the water...

The PRCs were trying their best to learn Vs Unite while waiting for their turn to go on the water Obstacles.In the end it paid off when they cheered they hearts out for VS as well as 3D.
*3 cheers for the PRCs =)*

The Inter-Class games was not bad either.We gave it our best and our all but unfortunately we did not manage to make it into the top 3 positions for the water-polo and captain's ball category.
Good job guys,i'm sure we will do better next time!!!

We then had our short Campfire Discussion outside of Timothy's tent and managed to finalise everything we were going to do during the campfire.

The Campfire

We were seated in an open area near the forest in the middle of the night.
Many of us felt that the campfire was not really that enjoyable because of many factors.But i am sure some people enjoyed it and cheered their hearts out..

Our skit was singing about things we went through since we boarded the coach that was headed for KOREF.
For example we would sing "shut up and drive" when the scene was on the coach.
When the scene was about waking up in the morning,we would sing "you are my sunshine"
We ended on a high with the PRCs leading us in Vs Unite and we Rocked.

The last day was more of about packing,doing reflections and breaking camp.

Throughout the camp,3D has managed to bond together well.I believe many of us have made many new friends be it from 3D or other classes.Let us continue to do our best and give it our fullest in whatever we do and excel.We,3D,are a brotherhood of Gentlemen,Professionals and Sportsmen.

NIL SINE LABORE* and remember to do your holiday homework.
