Leaders' Camp, the first striking project for UniYouth to handle ever since its' establishment.
Basically, we've been working non stop for those 8 days just to prepare and to excel the camp. Conflict and arguement arised during these 8 tough days. It was inevitable. I wouldn't say it was close to perfection, but we did try our best for it. Project Manager, Heppy Ng, gave us 70%, a B. Haha. Never mind! :) I would say, we really did a great job, with all the assistance given by all the committee members. UniYouth is going to shine in UCSI! Let's strive hard. =)
This year, with the theme "Break the Border, Have Fun Together!", the camp had indeed created a mould of impact on us all. It symbolised not only the end result of the camp, but it had bound us together once again as a gang of friends, as a gang of UCSI'ians. This camp was being held in Ayer Keroh, D'Village Resort, Melaka.
Initially, the camp was planned as a retreat for the leaders of UCSI but too bad, the title was changed time after time and in the end, it ended as Leaders' Camp. It did not sound nice to us but too bad, we had to follow what the management said. Well, that's UCSI. -_-" However, we still wanna convey our heartfelt thanks to Ms.Lee and Ms May who were being there for us despite of their tight schedules.
The preparation team who departed from KL way earlier than the participants. I really salute them as they really did a great job in creatively decorated the hall and pasted the backdrop onto the wall~ Hanging balloons and ribbons across the wall. Good job, guys!
we got makcik and pakcik to clean the hall. Haha! Just kiddin!
I lurve this backdrop. It looked leisure, relax and comforting to me~

Let's move on...
First day, basically, it's ice-breaking, team building games, seminars on Student Council, and Opening Ceremony. I would say we have more room for improvement in term of games and activities because this is our first time organizing such event in UCSI. However, the rest were ok to me. The VIPs were happy to see us all together as one, with high motivation (or too high?xD) and with active participants. And yeaa... i was the emcee throughout the camp. It was indeed a great experience for me to talk in front of everybody. I was stressed out in the beginning but during the camp, i guess everything went well. =D Glad to have those encouraging participants and facilitators! You made my day! :)
Next up, it's photos time! =D Too many shots... figuring what to be posted here... @_@"
In the bus from UCSI to Melaka.
I wonder why everyone smiled like this.
Did i say something... wrong?
Surprise to everyone!
We played 1st Ice-Breaking game with everyone in the bus.
Self introduction was being conducted by everyone.
Then, they gotta put on the name tag for the name which they got from the box, randomly.
Upon the arrival of the resort.
Residential assignment by Heppy.
Participants' arrival in the hall. Welcoming speeches by Student Council Pressi, Steph, and UniYouth President, Yuki,
2nd Ice-breaking game!
"WHO AM I?"
As i mentioned, the 1st ice breaking game in the bus was kinda crucial.
In this round, they were requested to guess who was their opponent once the cloth was pulled down by the facilitators.
Happily blowing balloons.

First water game entitled Trivia where everyone needed to guess the answers on general knowledge.
The wrong one, please get down the pool and wait for their verdicts!
Spelling Missisipi by butts. Yooohooo!
Quacking ducklings! =D
Next, more physical endurance game.
Each respective group was asked to swim/walk/float across another end of the pool. Then, they had to grab the colour pencils and coloured!
That was.... hard...
However, i could see teamwork from here! =D
Everyone helped their group members to get out of the pool or even walked together in the pool. Touched!
all WET! Water was still dripping from their whole bodies! Hohoho!
tadaaaz!
2 down! 1 left!
Tug on war! =D
I thought this game could really train their teamwork.
However, due to gender issue, some teams really lost the advantages. =X
It was challenging, tiring but FUN!
Created high atmosphere there~ by the pool. The sceneries were great!
Then, after all those games, participants were given 15-20 mins for their own free time.
Taking pics with all our VIPs and Advisors as well as faciz!
Next, Opening Ceremony!
I thought it was simple but special.
Not to say grand, but elegant.
Popping party poppers. =D
It was really beautiful.
For once in my life, i saw so much of ribbons and colour papers out from that 2 big and 2 small poppers! Omg.
After dinner, another team building game was held.
Each group was given 200 straws to build a tower.
Cool!
They really came out with brilliant ideas which really amazed me!
Supper time!
Free soya bean from our sponsor.
We also provided bread. =)
After sharing of the day, we moved on to another surprise!
To sing bday song to Nicholas! The bday boy on that Sunday! =)
Didn't get the chance to shoot his face. Hoho! He was standing upstair.
Before calling the day off, we had our first day post mortem meeting until 1am+.

Managed to catch an hour sleep. @_@"
