Workshop was next! By a pleasant speaker Mr Chua. I think the workshop was rather motivational as it featured Pay It Forward. Telling us that anyone could change the world just by a little action, we can make a better place. I was inspired by how one could commit to so much volunteering work when he could better off make the big bucks. Surly I would take a long time to consider if I have the choice.
After the workshop was lunch, the food was, rather, suckish for me. Maybe cause I was a pampered child like what J said. But its not true lor when I help campers throw the food box damn heavy okay!
Constant chatter kept the group alive as we set on the bus to IMH, where we settled down in the lecture hall to be given a briefing about the patient and raising our awareness about mental health risk in Singapore. And dear God, it was the most boring lecture ever. I fell asleep :D, kana whack by C, woke up. 10 mins later, fell asleep again. Thank god the lecture ended when I was woken up again. So it was, blah blah blah blah and blah. I can't really remember anything from the lecture.
Then came the ward visit, I could see how freaked out some campers were when they waiting in the holding room, for their attendance to be taken. Likewise for myself I was stunned by their actions and glares on us. Finally, we were allowed in and I ask the campers to roam around and try to interact with them, it was rather successful as many took initiative. Although some (like myself) were relentless to go we still manage to talk to a few of them. It was a rather nice experience for me, I mean its as bad as I've imagined. After that was a wrap up lecture where I was forced by J and C to talk about the ward visit. I don't remember what I actually said except for mentioning K's name cause she somehow caught my attention during the visit. Speaking in-front of so many people is actually so much FUN! Not the big enough to break my record yet, but for in-promp-to I guess it did.
Later in the evening, we had movie screening of the front of the class. The movie featured a true life story of Brad Cohen. He was born with Tourette Syndrome where he had little control over his twitches and weird noises he produce especially under stress. Overall, it was a great movie. Too bad I was so tired that I had headaches and switched off halfway during the movie. Which J woke me up (WHY DOES EVERYONE WAKES ME UP WHEN I DOZE OFF). I walked out as I felt damn horrible and washed my face in the toilet. Went back in to catch the rest of the movie but was dragged by WS to eat cup noodles. I am so gonna watch the movie again. soon.
The movie ended with mass debrief and reflection where MG went to share the group's experience, I would say it was a job well done and I had expected no less. Supper was rather enjoyable as we set down as a family and exchanged our Facebook's and shared about our life, I would say that it was one great moments during the camp. Thereafter was group debrief, where we -or should I say them- settled down and shared the experience we had for the day. I screwed up big time during this debrief and pissed C off. Said something really nasty about the camp although it was not really intentional.
Mummy A got really worried as we were not with the campers ): cause we thought that the FA briefing was there and we just left the campers to go wash up and tuck in. FA briefing was so fun, WJH kana own by MC and VL's. Although I don't really know him, his really freaking me out, suddenly sitting next to me during the bus trip from IMH to school. Weirdo.
