It was indeed a wonderful camp planned by our own YF. Big thank you to the camp committees, speaker and GOD.

We set off at about 10 minutes before 8 a.m. I traveled by van along with Hui Yee, Derrick, Jerrel, Li Yuan, Jing Yee, Elaine, Samuel, Jason and Ee Hsin. The other traveled by bus. We reached there at about 1.30 p.m.

This was the time table:

My group members are Ah War, Charmaine, Felicia, Jason Low, Joanna, Samuel, Wee Ting and Ling Ching (GL). My group adviser is Chien Yen. At first, our group was kind of very quiet, but during the first game we get along quite well. We were the first group to complete the first game without using any of the chances.

The first theme talk was base on John 3:16. Rev. William talks about what God's love is and why He loves us. The second theme talk was base on Matthew 22:34-40. He speaks about the Samaritans story. While, for the last theme talk was base on the same passage.

We also had a Q&A session with Reverend. First session was based on life and love issues. I can tell that most of our youth faced more love issues than life problems. But this is very normal. The second session was about faith and religious issues. Lots of the youth had question based on Islam ans Christianity. I think that Reverend did a great job in answering most of the question.

I think the best part of the whole camp was the talent night. We were asked to dressed formally. Girls and boys looks pretty and smart. Everybody looks stunning. All of the groups come up with great ideas in combining those characters, incident and settings. I must say that my group did a marvelous job on it even though we didn't win. I think the main thing was that all of us had a great time together. The greatest thing was the process but not the result. We took lots of pictures that night. Hui Yee was the most happy girl that night.

The next day, we had a sharing time. After that, we took a group photo. Before we came back, we went to Genting. Kai Ling drop us of at Hotel Resort where we met up with Joshua and the others. We took a walk from there to the first world hotel lobby. At first, we were clueless and have no idea how are we going to get there. However, we still managed to get there.

We place our begs at the bell couter, then we went to met up with Elaine and the others. We had Burger King. We spent for about an hour talking before we went to "look here, see there". We started our journey home at about 4.30p.m. We stop at the Seremban's toll for our dinner. We had KFC, but that was the worst KFC outlet i ever been to. We reached bp at about 9.45p.m.

Overall, it was a great camp, keep it up committees, i'm sure that you will do a better job next time.
