East Coast Park Camp Out

On Wednesday ,I went to ECP , and tent on the beach. It was my Helicon ig gathering.
I came around 10 at night. I was uncharacteristically sick* actually .
So as you know , only our Poly is on holiday, which explains why the stretch of Park is deserted. We can almost claim its ours.
I went bowling, just to watch, with 3 other frens, and toyed arnd with the closed arcade machines upstairs. a few ppl has gone home ald (girls mostly).

Khalis- the charismatic, yet idiosyncratic year 3.
Hanis- the quiet unassuming senior Steven-another @ Loud member
Prabhu- the president of @loud mags,STA

The following events happened;
1. Khalis was singing arabic verse.
2.Then the despicable happened, ppl got drunk, one in particular went off limits, even though hes a nice guy.
Took 16 shots of Vodka, was swearing 'fuck' the whole time, break the drinking glass, ran arnd babbling his convictions, seniors have to tranquilize him...(first time seeing sombody that drunk, unintentional)
3.we gather round the reclaimed land, then move to outside the tent. Talking rubbish..Khalis, until we land on their ghost expeditions. *
-Cemetery,
Prabhu says smthg will happen before, during, and after, Quote"B4, the bus arrives chun-
chun ", "D; heard a woman scream, and dogs bark-no dog does that in cemetery-", "After;
cannot sleep, plus felt there was an extra person"
-PasirRisPark,
Khalis "there are many entrances, only this one can go in,..out of all the lights this one will
always go off..very 'dirty' place, and that time I go with Hanis this one bird
circle a few trees will always land on the same branch, -warn us not to go in .."
-Changi Hospital,
Khalis" we two wait downstairs, and 'she' was looking at us from upstairs...i ask 'her' to pick
anyone of them, ;-<..then we all walk near this toilet, somehow it feels very strong, its only
the size of a storeroom..we all run-lah...then i can see something following Steven (another
guy) think he was dirty,"

We talked the whole night , untill 5am it was still dark. Time to sleep and 9 guys squeeze in the tent from the heavy rain. girls the other tent.
I woked next morning, wash myself and went off early for Mcdonald breakfast with 3 other yr 1's

Being in a Group Organisation

Its time now that i join some groups, be it at poly, like the igs, through talks and events, theres been a few , or residence committee or community club and also from places of worship, as i know many christian friends have their own church groups, mainly concerned with youth like us, and also other clubs outside, that you come across, in magazines,news or when u pass their places, .
There i've provided you with alot of avenues, theres even bigger association, but for now we just settle for the easy ones..... .

The good thing about cca group is that it is consistent and commonly found. But larger organisation though farfetched' but have broader outreach.
So for me, I take up 3 cca's or interest groups and follownng up to ACRES an animal welfare, SYIN social conference. its always good to belong to something. at least you stay committed and be part of something. Those 2 latter ones, are more stepped up because you are rep. for a cause, educating, and raising funds for animal protection ,and on the other side is for raising awareness on social issues, through projects ande stuff.

Ive tried signing up for rc, but didn follow through. because pasport sized photo. And sent the form to the mosque, but didn't receive updates.

They keep oneself busy, but more importantly you can contribute to society. People should try out being an active member of any group that they belong to, so that they will find something meaningful through their contribution and participation.
