YAY! for the Choir Camp 2009 !! I should announce that although it made me entirely jaded, it's worth all the painstaking efforts to keep myself alive throughout the camp. I've got to interact with more people, especially the J1s, and also had my first night-out at the notoriously ghostly-stories-laden school hall! Overall, the whole thing was quite enjoyable. One thing that I want to mention is the Amazing Race. It was really fun and out-of-the-world to some extent, especially when some team members made a joke out of themselves at a densely-populated public space!
Oh... the bus trip to Giant was fiendishly horrendous, with the rain pouring like mad, and including a horrifying brew of ferocious thunder and lightning. We were soaked in generous amounts of good water despite the prescence of sheltered narrow pathways which were pieces of pathetic temporary means of... shelter.
At Giant MegaShopalotMall, we had to search for the prices of different items that were strewn all over the labyrinth, like savage discount-thirsty shoppers. On the given list there was an item named 'Austin Nichols Wild Turkey'... Qiuting, Samia and I combed and ransacked the whole section of Meats, but we couldn't find any traces of this darn turnkey. In the end, someone from another team told us that it's actually a bottle of wine... No one could ever expect a bottle of wine to bear such an extraordinarily perculiar god-forsaken name! [There were other ridiculously un-tempting product names like Lucky Rabbit Potty and Mite Bolster, yep they were left on the shelves for the dust to settle...]
To conclude our escapade at Giant, we did a short amusing 'advertisement' on 3 selected products. Didn't know we could garner so much attention with Wally wielding a pink fairy wand and Ding Yang looking like a Naruto-clone with a belt on his head. Also, Jennifer managed to spawn a Korean-lang frenzy among those Korean wannabes, who were inveterately besotted with a tiny jargon of foreign language. Our Choir is so amazingly diverse!
All's well that end with a light-hearted prize-giving ceremony, and the guys in my team displayed their enthusiasm with yet another frivolous cheer full of Korean vibe. The camp was officially over by 6.10pm and all of us returned home with heavy, bulky bags, yet our spirits remain up high, our passion for Choir burning more intense than ever.
