Kem Akademi 2010

I am sure you can't find any information regarding the "Kem Akademi" in the website.I don't know why. I try to google it but to no avail.
Now, i would like to express my feelings about the camp in words. It was organised by The Ministry of Education of Terengganu (JPNT) and luckily, i was chosen to attend it for twice. Yeah, TWICE. Many students envied of me just because i am THE ONLY AND THE ONE who had the opportunity to join the programme for two times. I was proud of myself too! The first one was named as "Kem Akademi Elit Siri 5" whereas the second one was named as "Kem Akademi Star". Two different names but in fact, they were almost the same. We went there to study, strive hard to get straight A's in our PMR examination. I can still remember that the teacher in-charge always repeated the same sentence: All of you are selected students, so you must take heed of your behavior and discipline. EVERYDAY, no exception, she mentioned the similar thing.

Venue: Sumai Hotel Kuala Terengganu.
Programme: Kem Akademi Elit Siri 5

Initially, when i received the letter from Sir Aziz and was informed by him that i was chosen to attend the camp, i was on top of the world! I thought i was going for a real camping. What i meant was the camping that offered a lot of interesting outdoor activities and i could spend my night in the tent. Plus i was the only Chinese student who can go there! It supposed to be a red-letter day for me, right? However, it did not. There were no any activities such as FLYING FOX, JUNGLE TREKKING OR ROCK CLIMBING. We went there to study, do a lot of exercises, and get back a pile of modules. I felt down and i was really very depressed. We had to spent five hours for revising each subject. We stayed in the air-conditional room everyday. What made the condition worse was i didn't bring any blanket to the hotel! It was biting cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey! How i wished i could return home like a shooting star! If you were in my shoes, you would feel that how sucks the camp was. Lastly, i didn't even know any new friends. Since then, i told myself, I WILL NOT ATTEND SUCH CAMP AGAIN!

Date: 20 September 2010—23 September 2010
Venue: Hotel Seri Malaysia, Marang.
Programme: Kem Akademi Star

Nevertheless, my dream was spoiled. That day, i just finished taking my Chinese lesson. When i went back to my class, i saw some pieces paper on my table. Then, i was flabbergasted! I was informed to go to the camp again! OH MY GOD. My feeling was totally antonymous with before. I didn't intend to go there and i didn't prepare anything for it yet. No matter how, i still had to attend it, despite my unwillingness.

Sometimes, i believe that there is an existence of miracles.

Out of the blue, it was indeed a fun-filled and an eye-opening experience. Although the food of the hotel was not really very delicious, the participants were nice and hospitable. I had befriended a lot of people and every moment we spent together was full of joy and laughter. We could mingle well with each other, free from judgment and assumption. This was the best part of the camp. Another thing was i was able to broaden my horizon and gain lots of knowledge that i could never get in the school. Moreover, i also managed to see many geniuses from the other school who were more outstanding and talented than me. The most importance was their English was excellent, especially Mimie. I admired her so much as she could speak English very fluently. I hope i can be like her too!

The memorable one:
  • I formed a bond with a group of girls who were Jasmin Tan, Joycelyn Hai, Chia Zhu Ying and Tan Geok Eng.
  • I spent three nights with my roommates who were Mimie Amelia, Jasmin Tan, Nini Nagyha and Jah.
That's all about the camp!
Guys, i will not forget you and will miss you all the time!
I will always remember all the sweet, exhilarating memories that we had gathered there.
