Yo, what's up! I'm back from Camp! But, actually I really didn't wanna leave Camp! And surprisingly my class and I did actually do some actual bonding! (referring to the Army Ants Attack) OK, for those of you who didn't know, my tent was attacked by Red Army Ants ( the one that bites people). We found a trail of ants on Rachel Ming's floorboard so we flipped it over and found that there was actually a nest there. The trainers then used fire to burn/kill the ants. I knew that the ants would later come to my side of the tent because well, I watch more Animal planet than anyone, I know. The ants once seeing that their comrades are dead, their mind set changes and their comrades turns into their food. With their base burned down they will find the nearest dark shelter aka. my side with Zemaine.
Luckily, Pei Ting and the others invited me to sleep in their tent! and then the others soon followed.The teachers were being assholes about us sleeping together in the same tent. But, eventually they did probably cause' they were as friggin' tired as we were. But anyways, the theme
Bond 007, nobody does it better was really appropriate because we did really Bond in this camp! with our classmates and even with our trainers! aka. Marcus & Joy and ok, I admit I did cry when AJ read Marcus's Letter to us so here goes.
Hey girls...
I know we had so little time in the world to play all those station games but I hope that I had made an impact in your lives just as you girls have made an impact in my life. To all the group 13 girls ( he spelled out all our names including mine). I will remember you for as long as I can and will love you as much as I can. Never stop believing and keep bonded as a class. And as I may say this one last time "Zoom Porsche! Oi!"
Though, he didn't say it and wrote it instead. The whole class responded, "Oii!". We all thought that he was some annoying asshole at first (or so we thought) turns out that what he really was our weird, wacky, kind, funny & caring brother not trainer but brother. He was the reason why we didn't want to leave camp not the games or the fun we had. It was Marcus, we missed. We all wanted our awesome brother back.
I remember that in the morning he greeted us with red puffy eyes! clearly, he had done some seriously crying to be that red (and he's a boy well, ok, man). many of us cried when he thanked us for everything and also individually (he cried with us). He thanked me for asking random questions with some many different patterns, I have no idea what the hell that means but.. I didn't cry at that point but I broke down when I heard the letter. I guess he really did made an impact on my life even though the camp was only for 5 days. Hell! He probably made an impact in everyone's lives cause' everyone and I mean, Everyone was crying! Though, he'll probably never read this blog and we'll probably never meet him again. I'm sure that everyone will probably remember this camp & Marcus forever because it was Marcus that made the Camp, the fun & the bonding possible! so I truly want to thank Marcus for all he has done for me and for everyone else. So Truly Marcus, Thank you.
Ok, aside from the emotional stuff (though my heart is still aching), High Elements was Awesome! Ab-scaling was the best though not as fun & awesome as the bonding and new friendships made! Oh & I didn't get to do Flying Fox, awww...! But, it's ok cause' Cheng and Gin made plans to do the Flying Fox directly after SA1 (which means immediately after the last exam, we bring extra clothes and then change in the washroom) and go to Sentosa where they have Ab-scaling & Flying Fox together!!! Woo hoo! Ok, Long story made short, we had a
Friggin' Kick-Ass Awesome Time!!!
Ok, and this weekend there is the...
Singapore Tattoo ShowAn enduring craze, the Asian art of tattooing has been around for thousands of years. Once seen as a badge of pride worn by gangsters, they have today evolved into body art flaunted by models and celebrities. This weekend, over 5,000 admirers and practitioners of the craft will converge at the Singapore Expo for the Singapore Tattoo Show . The three-day event - the Republic's first dedicated to the craft promises lots of ink action from both regional and international artists, including Chris Garver of 'Miami Ink' fame.
Featured artist: Chris Garver
Local tattoo fans would be familiar with Chris Garver, who stars in the popular reality TV series Miami Ink. One of the biggest names in the tattoo world, Garver started experimenting with tattooing at the age of 17 and later moved to New York later to pursue a professional career in the craft.

Woo Hoo! Now, this is the kind of art I'm talking about!
