RED CAMPERS YO!!!

How's everyone! I sincerely apologise for the lack of posts the past 2 days because we've all been quite caught up with preparations for our common tests. But rest assured from now on this blog will be updated daily! Yes, you can count on my word for that! =D

So really now, HOW ARE YOU!?!? Have you all got your voices back? Have you rested your poor legs well enough? Betcha you did! Haha. Oh well the student leaders we all miss you like crazy! I went back to school on Monday and first thing that hit my mind was ... "This is weird. Something's missing. Suddenly the school's a lot quieter, and all those brightly coloured shirts and big big tribes moving and cheering on impressively were all lacking! =D


But hey! Enjoy the rest of your loooongggg break while you can. While you all are still so very free, keep checking up on this blog for updates on tribal outings / RED Camp outings! We are really dying to meet up with you all bunch of fun and crazy people once again, and do that stomp and yelling and everything mad once again, haha!

Matt's got some really nice RED Camp pics up on his blog, and I reckon everyone here's prolly already know the link, so you can go grab them! I have yet to get my hands on pictures from the professional photographers, I promise a few of the best shots by the end of this week though ;)

As for now, do spread this RED Camp blog link to everyone around you because we will be updating this space daily! As for now, we're racking our brains to brainstorm on places to go for post RED Camp outings! So... do remember to drop a comment / email us at redcamp4@gmail.com for your suggestions / feedback!

Till then,
Take care and lots of love!

Hello Dearest RED Campers!

How are you guys all doing? Had enough rest after the camp? I sure did, after slumbering into the late afternoon of Saturday... Felt so so so good! lol! But of course I'm sure we're all still suffering from the RED Camp withdrawal symptoms...

Like when I was on my way out this morning, I saw a girl in green and the first thing that came to my mind was "Vikings" and then another guy in yellow and immediately the words "Centurions" came into my mind.

And my voice is still husky from all that screaming, and my feet! My feet, gosh how they hurt now, because we walked and jumped and danced so much I'm now nursing multiple blisters.

But I tell you, this is all worth it for all the fun and friendships built during the camp. I've gotten to know so many new precious people and I'm sure you have too! =)

Right now we're consolidating all pictures taken during RED Camp from you guys! So if you do upload your pictures on e.g. Picasa / Photobucket / Xanga, do let us know or send us the links at redcamp4@gmail.com alright?

So far I've gotten hold of Pictures from Apaches and Vikings and here you go, start grabbing them!

The performers hard at work rehearsing...

We've put up all the goodie bag filled with good stuff for you!

WE WILL SEE YOU IN JUST A WHILE...
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!

Labels: Snippets of RED Camp 4

2 days 2 days 2 days! In exactly less than 48 hours, we will all be at NP, finally seeing each other after months of chatting online, tag-board chatting, and emails!

I've often wondered how you all would be like, you know... after seeing each other online but without really seeing each other in the physical body... the curiousity is almost unbearable! Lol. Anyway, that's besides the point. Point is...

RED CAMP IS DRAWING SO SO NEAR!

Just today, we had a mass briefing for all student leaders... there's about 300 over of us... to practise our cheers, to do the mass dance, and to once again meet up with our own tribes before we see you guys! After months of preparation, all the student leaders are all revved up and ready for the camp.

I know I promised photos and videos, it will be up tomorrow night, just before RED Camp 4! Meanwhile, do get your respective coloured shirts, it will be really cool to see that every tribe is made out of distinct colours!

And also, I should not forget that this is all going to be so so different from all other camps organised by other tertiary institutes because RED Camp 4 is going to be SIMPLY THE BEST. We promise you an unforgettable time!

I'm so excited so excited so excited ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

6 more days ONLY. How did time ever past so fast??!!

You should really come down and see what the student leaders are up to these days. The school is practically bustling in lieu of the final preparations for RED Camp 4. Renovations are rushing to be completed, decorations are to be put up very soon, final arrangements for shuttle buses for more convenient travelling for all campers, perfecting every performance item that will be showcased during the camp...

WE ARE ALL SO READY! ARE YOU???

It's just so exciting, especially day 3 of RED Camp! Have you heard of DJ Andrew Chow? If you haven't its ok - you just have to know that he is a renowned spinner who will be crashing in at HOP NITE and so totally rock the camp! Not to mention oogle-worthy performances by our very own CCA groups and NP's very own talent Paul Twohill!

You will also get to get your hands on all the different course facilities, so that we hope that will give you a better idea of where you want to head to after your results are out!

So people, hold your breath in anticipation, RED CAMP 4 IS IN 6 DAYS TIME!

Before I start putting in pictures and videos that will further excite you... let me once and for all, let you know which are the schools that fall unders what tribe.

More commonly known as the Red Indians, Apaches are the indigenous people from North America. The Apachean tribes were powerful tribespeople, fierce warriors and skillful strategists. They are also known to be extremely versant hunters who never fail to hit their target with the deadly bow-and arrow weapon. For many years since recorded history, Apaches have and will continue to be held together closely by a strong sense of unity.

Centurions

Centurions are famously known and respected as the high-ranking commanders in the ancient Roman Army. They are capable and strong leaders who led the Roman Infantry from the front, inspiring their men by example. Courageous warriors, these fighters are not to be easily defeated. Centurions are highly responsible commanders who fight alongside their soldiers, at the same time guarding them from harm.

NINJA

Trained for dangerous missions, Ninjas are extremely agile and quick fighters of ancient Japan. Known as one of the best masters of defence, ninjas are warriors in all senses. Their swift tactics and weapons are partially derived from the need to conceal or defend themselves from their enemies. An undaunting fighting spirit and a quick mind, Ninjas are invinsible combat masters. Yataaaaa!

SPARTANS

Trained from infancy to be brave and unfearing warriors, these ancient Greece soldiers form a valiant and valorous army who have fought countless victorious battles. Spartans are deeply committed and loyal soldiers who follow are obedient to their laws. The Spartans' undying loyalty to their homeland is highy commendable and regarded. They are true inheritors of the Greek tradition "Return Victorious or return dead". Ahwooo!

VIKINGS

Vicious and bloodthirsty, industrious and heroic. Vikings are daring masters of the sea, ferocious and warlike in their battles. Agile and quick in their movement, Vikings fight audaciously on both land and sea. Their expeditions often concluded with victorious results. Known for their intimidating horned helmets, they are also strong-hearted warriors who are not to be offended. Arrrrrrrrr!

Let the power of the 5 tribes combine forces at RED Camp 4! Prepare your hearts and your souls, honoroble soldiers - Behold! You will be witnesses of a time in history, a time where the glory and honour of RED Camp 4 will be revealed.

9 days to go!

Hey guys!

I was on my way to school today, thinking: "Oh man, if only Friday was a holiday too, then we can all have a loooong weekend!" Then I thought back about how I've only got about half a semester left here at NP and I went "Gosh noooo. I haven't enjoyed myself enough!"

So yes, it's all pretty much personal because there's just so much I've experienced and learned while I'm here, and I hope that while you're here for RED Camp 4, we SLs can share that much of our experience with you. :)

Anyways, I can't believe you guys will be totally liberated by tomorrow! It seems like just yesterday I was blogging and telling you all to buck up and go all for it, sending my regards - and now, BOOM - you're all going to be free and happy!

Well guys, enjoy your well deserved break and holiday for all your hard work's worth. Go party yourselves crazy, treat yourself to some good food and movies and catch up on all the lost sleep! I'm soooo envious......... LOL.

I'll see you guys in 12 DAYS time!
