Had a very very unforgettable drums camp. It was touching, happy and educational camp for me. Although we fooled around so many times but there're at times where it was very educational.

On the first day of the camp, we assembled in the bus bay to help Mdm Isnani and Mdm Mis. We then gathered at the music room for our grouping. Syafiq, Siraj, Firman, Fareez, Faris, Ashraf and me were grouped together while, Nazri, Hasbi, Sadiq, Firdaus, Hafiz, Anshori and Sharil were in one group. Our group called ourself Sound Desire because we love to play music. Any sound we made will always turn into music even a beat can make a difference. While Nazri's group is called Lisqizi which they took from the last alphabet of their name. We did our training with our instructor, Mr Yaziz. First, we're told to take any 2 instruments each and assemble back in the music room. We then pick our instrument that we wanted to learn. We sat in a circle. He said that, if you take a hand drum, your left would be an accessories and your right would be a stick drum. We did what we were told. At first we thought we're supposed to learnt the instrument that we want but it turned out differently. At the end of the practice, he told us this. "I told you guys to take any 2 instruments and look at what you guys picked. You picked the instrument of your choice but what happened? You guys played the instrument of your choice and your friends. Just like in life, you plan to this and that but it did not turn as it is. For example, you want to eat a 30 meter pizza but you only get 30 centimeter and are you thankful and grateful to have it? In life, you should appreciate what you have and be grateful for what you have and carry on with the flow. What ever happens, life must carry on" That is the part where i was touched by his words. Around !2 noon, we headed to West Coast for our games and activities. We played this game whereby you have to put the raffia string to your armpit clothes, pass down you shirt and out from your pants and then to the next person. We then played the human chain and then finish 14 bread in under 3 minutes. HAHAHA!! I finish all of it and boy, my mouth hurts but I'm still hungry ==. We couldn't play much cause it was raining very heavily and got to see few lightning strikes. HAHAHA!

Then on friday, we had our practice again with our instructor and at 12.30, we went to the mosque for our friday prayer. Around 3.30, we headed out to East Coast park. We dropped at the wrong carpark and had to walk for 1 kilometer with our instruments and food. Upon reaching, we set up tent and filled bags with sea water for our next activities. Played waterbomb dog and bone and water filling using only our mouth. Had our practice there and enjoy most of the time eating =). Around 9 headed back to school. Reached school at about 10. Perform what we practice and then the prize presentation. Was suppose to reached home at 9 but turns out to be 11. That's why I couldn't update yesterday. Anyway I had fun and enjoy the camp.
