Soft beds! Showers (and not pails)! Clean clothes! Edible food! Not a whiff of a swamp! And not a blasted fly, mosquito, frog nor ant within visibility's range! Such were the words I cried out in joyous harmony, and I openly wept on my knees in front of many a stunned security officer after passing through immigration at Tuas. Sobering up proved easier than expected, after I brushed off several rifles aimed at what security personnel percieved to be a dangerously crazy threat, as I began to realise that the camp was passably fun. I should not be unused to this process anymore, more commonly known as "eating my words". Once again I must retract my words, as I humbly concede that the camp was decent, and wait for it... even enjoyable (oh golly) at some point or another. This was due to a certain individuals that I'm quite certain won't ever stumble across this, and with minimal damage to my ego, I am free to proclaim aloud that it was the instructors of the camp (always is in fact - especially this camp more than most) that justified the trouble of dragging myself down to Kluang. From the hoop-sinking, basketballing foursome of female instructors (the sight of a particularly and quite-obviously oversized instructor nail a 3-pointer with eagle eye accuracy was majestic to behold, and she proceeded to pummel the living daylights out of the school basketball players and my perception of physics alike. Respect.) as well as their male, and equally entertaining counterparts, who enlightened us with secrets, ghost stories and other similarly juicy pieces of gossip. Having unburdened my soul with my confessions which would hopefully spare my obviously hell-bound soul, I shall now proceed to shower for what would probably be the 4th time since I arrived in Singapore, in yet another moment of water-wasting splendour to rejoice in a state of hygiene previously unattainable for the last 5 days. Many thanks to the friends (inclusive of instructors) who made the fly-infested, ant feeding ground of Kluang that little bit more tolerable. TO THE BATMOBILE |
