Organizer : PJ & Sg Long Yoga Society
Description : Fast for 36 hours. From 8pm on Friday till 6.30am on Sunday (about 34 hours, without drinking water and eating food)
Before the Camp
i just became one of the committee members in this yoga society in semester.. as an Assistant Treasurer.. (treasurer again, haha) wong bee chin hand over her post to me as she said i've at least have some experience in accounting.. hell NO~ not at all wei.. i only took acc in foundation.. and thats all.. for de previous years of holding the post of treasurer in 10th pj scouts troop.. those accounts done are all free style.. LOL.. but now in Utar, we've to follow the rules.. sigh.. new format blah blah blah.. DSA~ sigh.. have to follow anyway, but with the help from Kang Mi Shel, Wong Bee Chin and Stephenie.. yeah~ i can do it man! hahah..
okay, back to the point.. as part of the committee, we are compulsory to attend the camp.. so,, erm ok lo.. i'll go.. without questioning much.. (i misses those days camping in templer's park..)
i was very blur about the camp.. as not much meetings were held.. no updates and they haven't get approval from Utar on the very last Week 13th .. sigh.. and said DSA might not approve it anyway.. wth~ ppl plan for so long edy (since last semester i think) and now they don't want to approve it.. they don't encourage their students to be active in co-curriculum activities is it? they want their students to be all book worms??
but at least.. they finally approved it..
i was assigned to be one of the Games Masters.. wow... sounds so pro.. LOL.. with Lim Wan Ching and Tan Bee Yee.. hehe..
so, our games plan were all quite last minute too.. just come out with ideas, plan on our own and on one day before camp.. came out together for 2 hours discuss everything.. gao tim~ LOL.. geng leh.. hahaha..
and, only a week before the camp.. i just knew that its a dry fast.. meaning, no drinking water at all.. wow.. worried whether i could ever survive for the 36 hours or not.. will i faint cos of dehydration and hungriness??? will my stomach growl till everyone can hear??? will i give up in the middle???
worried worried worried..
BUT.. the most serious thing im worried about is the time of the month.. i've counted.. if its early as in ngam ngam hou.. then 1st day will be the 1st day of the camp.. of late abit.. then will be on the last day of the camp.. sigh..
First Day - 26th, Friday

unconsciously.. i ordered Ice Lemon Tea~ and i drank it..
about near 12pm.. go to the toilet before the bus depart to sg long to pick up them up..
OH MY GAWD~~~ shit.. wtf~! as i mentioned earlier.. i saw something i don't want to.. sigh..

before the Utar bus driver drive into the jungle, he made a stop at a McDonald.. i went there before with my ji muis when we went to Bukit Tinggi~
at that time, the pain is getting worst and i need to move araound.. sitting in the bus doesn't help much..
in the journey to the jungle, the roads are very narrow and the bus almost slide backwards.. LOL.. but, the bus driver is damn good in making a very narrow u-turn.. *salute*

Games throughout the whole camp : Scavenger Hunt

before lights off, a short meeting among the committees and our 'advisors'..
and, in the room.. realized that we haven't draw the those station name for tmr's game, haven't draw tic tac toe on mahjong paper.. so did it till about 12am++.. then lights off..
that nite was very cold, we only on a small standing fan.. of cos la, sleep in a rumah papan plus near the river and in the middle of the forest.. haha.. natural air-cond~
Second Day - 27th, Saturday
have to wake up damn early, about 5am, Dada will play guitar and sings.. walking up and down our chalets.. to wake us up~ thanks for the 'walking alarm clock'..
then head to Prana Circle..
after this prana circle, we will start our dry fast, meaning cannot drink water anymore until de next day.. during prana circle, we walked bare foot at the field, walking in a circle and singing babanam kevalam song in two versions.. haha.. it was so cold.. the purpose is for us to get all the energy (qi) from the nature.. thats why we have to go bare foot..
walk walk, sing sing.. stop, drink water..
walk walk, sing sing.. stop, drink water..
repeated for a few rounds.. then everyone back to their room and had their business done, for me, no business to do~ lol..
after an hour, they start their morning Asana, while me.. sigh.. only do the warm up and then later sit aside.. LOL.. ppl sure wonder why this girl so lazy.. sigh.. HAHAHA~ after that, start to prepare for the next activities lo..
them doing Yoga..
then, comes to the Station Game.. woohoo~~!!
we've 5 stations to go..
Station 1: Tri-Senses
- jaga by me and wongbeechin..
this game was played last time during scouts camp too..
it supposed to be 5 senses game but since this is a fasting camp, we are not supposed to taste food or anything.. then, smell?? things i could think of is only to smell food, cannot be let ppl smell smelly socks ma rite? haha.. so if let them smell food, it will be very torturing too~ hahah.. so end up, left 3 senses and we named it Tri-Senses : see, touch and hear..
discussing..
Station 2 : I Act, You Tell
- a guessing game, jaga by wan ching and siti.. among all stations, ppl like this station de most.. haha..
wan ching explaining the rules and regulations of her station..
no communication are allowed.. only sign language.. LOL
Station 3 : Genius -Do It!
- jaga by tanbeeyee and chan mun yee
games to test whether u r a genius or not.. haha.. do some IQ games and answer 40 general knowledge questions.. haha..

Station 4 : Sticky-Sticky Guli
-jaga by sze yi..
this is the only station where all groups got full marks and additional bonus marks too.. WOW~!
participants are supposed to transport their marble by carrying it on satay sticks.. amount of satay sticks will be reduced one by one..
carrying it carefully..
See, they've made it! :)
Station 5 : Racing Beanies
- this is the last station where all four groups compete to get No.1.. transport their beans from one end to another through straws.. haha
kinda funny too during this game when some groups they lost their beans.. some were shouting "Hey, Mr Bean, where are u? don hide leh.."
then some groups found a bean and the group beside claim that they "kidnapped" their beans.. LOL~
when we saw they all were so desperate to find back their beans, wongbeechin came out with one cruel offer.. selling 1 bean for 5 points.. LOL.. no one wants.. they continue looking for their beans around the big hall :P
