Language Camp TESL IPGKI 2011

Yay! Finally the camp is over. Hehe. Though it was kind of tiring but it is worthy. We gain so many experiences here and there. I've learnt so many things directly and indirectly. From the matter of academic purpose like how to learn English efficiently in a fun way or how to become a good speaker until to some non academic purpose but more to life things like the matter of trusting and believing people. I've found many people are very awesome. For example, some can sing and act very well, dance brilliantly, good speakers, conscientious planner, extremely creative creator, and so on. Oh, all of them are very talented teachers. I am glad to meet them here. But in contrary with that, although this camp should be a platform for me to mingle with my college mates but I think I am not really into it yet. Hehe. I am sorry but I am the kind of people me who used to build a wall instead of bridges. I may take five years to break the walls. But once I love, I'll love forever. And I know I love my friends here..heee xD
Okay, leave the story here, because I want to share some exciting and interesting stories during the camp.weee!

Day 1
name tag and telur given :D
We started the registration at 3 p.m. The name tag was given. Basically I did not arrived there at pulako on time. Uuu. Then randomly we had been scolded by Mdm Hadzra. Not really being scolded but she just reminded us to be punctual. Phew~ I thought the registration will be held on 3 until 5. So I can come anytime that I want. Hehee.. Moreover, we also had been given an chicken egg for each of us to kept. It is called as a 'responsible thing'. So I must keep an eye towards it until the last day of camp.

Day 2
We began the day with a session of aerobics. Wee..I like to move it move it. xD
i sanggup wake up early in the morning if they wajibkan kami every day buat bnda ni xD

Then just like the other camp, we are were having an ice-breaking session. We were assigned to create our own logo, jingles and motto. My group which is group five chose the name G5 to emblazonedt our motto which are glorious, gorgeous, gay, great and genius. The motto might looks hardly to be achieved but we are planning to get over there. Hehe, as saying tells us that those who are never plan are those who plan to fail. I like the jingles of my group. It is more less sounds like this : we are the B-E-S-T. Among the R-E-S-T. So Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah. Then la la la la la ( I forget the next line, xD). But the tunes still stuck in my mind.

In progress!
The time to explain everything! hehe
Then we continued with session NIE. NIE stands for newspaper in education. Yeah, I love newspaper as it  can turn to be as one of the most effective tools for teaching, really! Kids absolutely can gain many benefits from it. Hmm, now I'm in the stage of finding some other material that can be used to make learning English becomes fun and interesting. And if I get them all, absolutely I'll write them here. :-)

Oh, for this NIE session, we were given a topic for each group. Our group got the topic of tourism. So we decided to cut eye-catching pictures from the newspaper and arranged them to be an advertisement of our tourism island. We named it as English Language Island as only English language is permitted to be used there.  

I just become tukang pegang kali ni. lenguh jugak ye xD

After that, we had an opening ceremony. I was one of the choir members. Hehe. The theme song, 'We Believe' is created by Mark, one of my friends here. Some lyrics to be shared, : we believe we can fly  in the sky up high, where our dreams are the biggest of all kind, our love has put us at the top of the world, so let us show off what we have~~

my sora is langsung x sedap, tapi i x kisah :-p

The day continued with another session of language games. For this session, we were divided into new groups. We played at four station. My group lost two times. Hehe, so our faces had been 'conteng2' by the group one members that organized this language games.
this is before kena contiang. I wonder why I'm not smiling...heee
 Then at night, we were having a school visit rehearsal as our lecturers want to know what activities will be done by us at school. Yeah, at day 4 we went to visit a school. I'll tell it later yeah. xD

discuss and practise

Then the night was proceeded with a skits practice. My group was the organizer for the skits competition. Yeah, we were having some problems to find juries for the competition. Pheww~~ Luckily, Ms Jen, Mdm. Zalilah and her daughter Miss Diyana agreed to become juries. Thank you so much!

Day 4
A day that I think most of us get really excited about it. It was the day of school visit. We were divided into three big groups. I was chosen to go to SJK(T) Tanjung Rambutan. Another two schools are SJK(C) Changkat Kinding and SK Pakatan Jaya. I was very nervous. But children there are very supportive. Hey, I mean, they were very actively participated in our prepared activities. Wow, the children were very energetic! And they showed full of respects towards us. I am very grateful as some experiences of handling with kids when I was one of the members of friend's guidance organization at school do help me very much. Kids love songs, especially a short song accompanied by some movements. So, I taught them the 'Pizza' song. ;-). Moreover, it really touched me as they said good morning teacher, thank you teacher, I love you teacher, teacher, please come again. Uuuuu~ The greatest feeling!


I have the videos of them singing the love song from Barney but I couldn't transferred it in my PC. Haish!

Then at afternoon, we have our session of puppet show. Oh, we just finished our puppet just couple minutes before we had to present it. Ohoho. I could not find any pictures too...Hmmm. Aha, okay, I know Chan Chan will love this. I nearly fall after giving the reflection for puppet show. So, in order to make myself become not too ashamed, I just walk like nothing happened. Err, but I made a kind of gestures like 'lalalala'. Do you get it? Ehm, it perhaps looked like this:

At 5 p.m, we were having a forum session. There were eight participants. Two of them are representatives from my class, who are my good friends Evelyne and Thevika. They had done a very good job. Actually I came a little bit late for this session, then I xdan dengar the first participants talk. This forum was interesting because they need to tell us their own experiences. They were discussing about, "make peace with the past, don't screw up with your future".

At night, we were having our skits competition. Seriously, I like all the performances. The performances were very entertaining! I dare to say it looks naturally fun more than tesl night. Yeah, really. But perhaps it can be improved next time. I hope in having fun too, we won't leave the rules. Yeah, for Muslim, we must be aware and make sure don't terpegang lain jantina. We can have fun together but we still have the limit. :-)

Eh pictures is in my handphone. So I couldn't share them yet. :C

Day 5
redah hutan itu
The jungle trekking day. Hmm, jungle trekking was fun. It was not so tiring. I just dislike the pacat. Hehe. So, I will always look down at the ground and miss the chance to enjoy the nature because I was too busy protecting my leg from becoming the pacat's target. I still have the parut that pacat had gifted me when I was a form 2 student. I went to English camp and pacat gigit me. Haish! I was crying like crazy and I remembered Ainn always teased me for that incident. :-p


my group, i wonder jugak knapa setiap kali aktiviti fizikal msti i kena duk blkg ja...haha xD

Then we proceeded with exhibition activities. Hehe. I went back to hostel to take a bath and change my clothes whereas I think perhaps we are not allowed to go back because I didn't see anyone else coming back too. Hmm. Actually I always tend to break rules and it will be more safer to do it senyap2, sorang2.... *wrecked witches laugh*

ada mcm2 aktiviti kat sini. bagus2

At 3 p.m. we had our closing ceremony. Myself was involved in choral speaking and choir performances. Hehe. I love all the dances. Pretty dances from pretty dancer. ;-)


After the closing, Zida, Yaya, Mira, Puteri, Yamna and me went to pulako with and wrapped the BBQ's dishes such as chickens, sausages, fishes and corn. It was a rainy evening. Mira and Mr. Lim started the fire. We just afraid that our dishes could not be cook well but Alhamdulillah, everything just perfectly done. We didn't grilled all of them but some of our friends did it. Thank you to them. It was a great night but I can't enjoyed myself too much because I was too sleepy. Haha. xD


Day 6
It was the day to break the camp. Hehe. We were having our gotong royong session at pulako. Me had made the pulako look better than before, isn't it? haha. And before that, we were having a reflection session with Mr. Earnest and Mr. Ruben
at gotong royong session, u can see people are kind of berebut penyapu..hehe xD

...
THE END

p/s: I rarely put a 'formal' title just like I did above!
