Anyways,during this activity, each team was given a packed-up-in-plastic-bags-frozen-T-shirts for the team to defrost as quick as possible and get the shirt out. The team had to put the shirt on one member *or the team leader*.
Everyone had to find means to crack the ice without using the pavements. Many took the empty teapots left from the tea fellowship to collect water, some took bricks that were lying around, my team even took a garbage bin to melt the ice!!
But I saw Uncle Kok Leong wearing the shirt , with holes due to the pulling of the members. His team won, just so you know.
Oh yeah, and all the activities started late. So the time may not be accurate.

6.30-7.30 pm Dinner
>Oh yeah, Uncle David Kek will blow the whistle to kinda like round everyone up for the activity. He says its like a "sorry, excuse me" way of getting everyone's attention.

3.30-5.30pm Mini Olympics (at the beach)
>P.S. This will be very long, but I guess I'll type it out anyway as a way to relieve my exam stress XD

1) Teams select 5 members for this game. When the whistle is blown, three balloons will be blown by the members of the team. Once done, one member walks/hops/whatever way to the opposite site with a balloon under each arm and a balloon between the legs. Aunty Soh Cheng joined this activity as well, what team spirit!!

2)Teams select 5 members for this game(can interchange with other members who didn't take part in the first one). All members have to lie/kneel with the head to the ground. The last one gets up and jumps over the other members, and lie/kneel again after jumping over the last crouching member. It continues until the team have reached the other side. The leader have to run to Adrian at the starting side to report the team as 1st/2nd...

3)Teams select 3 members for this game. (Again, can interchange with other members who didn't take part in the first one/second one). According to teams, each member throws a balloon filled with sand balls as far as they can. Benjamin Sim threw the farthest.

4)Teams select 5 members for this game. (Again, can interchange with other members who didn't take part in the first one/second one/third one). All the members line up in one line. All the right legs of all the members were tied up. The same goes for the left legs. (Kinda like a caterpillar). My team couldn't go on as my legs were tied up. Oh well. Then, teams were to walk to the opposite side and back.

5)Teams select 5 members for this game. (Again, can interchange with other members who didn't take part in the first one/second one/third one/fifth one) Each member had to run to the other side, pick up the stick on the floor and with the head on the top of the stick, spin the stick around for five times(I guess they were trying to make players dizzy) and run back.

The results were known later.

5.30-6.30pm Rest and Clean up.
>since this was after the mini olympics, many(mostly youth) stayed at the beach to play.

6.30-7.30pm Dinner (Toufu, rice, honeydew,green vege, sweet sour fish, chicken with chili, and I can't remember what else)

8.00-8.15pm Warm-up and get ready
>Teams used this time to practice the performance I mentioned earlier

8.15-10.15pm Evening Program
>The results of
>It was the Cornerstone's Got Talent. Uncle Polly sang a couple of songs to hype us up. Then it came to performance time.
>my group sang "I Love You" song from Barney and "We are Family"-edited and cut short.
>Uncle Chow's group was hilarious. It started with 5 people- the liar, backstabber, gao-si guan(s*** stirrer) and another 2 more I can't remember. Then Barry (the cupid) shoot his arrow at each one of them - Daniel took the arrow and "stabbed" it at each of those mentioned and stick a heart while Nicholas tore the paper which wrote their characteristics.
>Uncle Kok Leong's group had a guy named Reuben(I think it was their group's name as well), and his whole family went hiking. Uncle Kok Leong, the so called long enemy, came and placed a bomb on Reuben. The family members each begged the enemy - Uncle James, the father, aunty Fay Khim, the mother in law, Uncle Gary, the father and I can't remember who else- but failed to save Reuben. Soon the bomb was up. But it did not blast.
>Uncle David Thein's group was hilarious. Uncle David Kek was reading the bible while the drums were played, and aunty Janet and a few others were singing "One Voice"-the camp's theme song. Uncle David Thein started to rap. It was messy and LOL.
>Jia Ying group was hilarious too. Jia Ying acted as the emo girl and an angel came and lifted her spirit. Uncle Terry was a stressed out man. Two angels came and lift his spirits up. We "flew" away. And more, but I can't remember.
>Edward's group was funny. Pastor Soong's wife and Uncle Alan Mok were "husband and wife". One day, Uncle Alan said he wanted Bak Kut Teh for breakfast. His "wife" said no. Its so funny, but SORRY!! I have to finish up in a minute or two...
