Off to Camp

After days of excitement and anxiety on what to bring/pack for the 3 days' camp, Isa is off to camp.

For p5 kids, besides the much anticipating National Education (NE) show in July, the next major event would be the 3 days' camp.

Before the June holidays began, a list of things to bring has beeen given to the p5 kids. This list is pretty long including number of sets for undergarments! Since the term 3 began, Isa has put aside all the things she wants to bring. Her room was so messy with things scattered on the floor. The teacher's words carried more weight than parents'. She insisted on bringing a 1.5 litre water bottle, x sets of long pants which neither too thick nor thin, y sets of shorts, z sets of t-shirts etc. She was not supposed to bring a big luggage but how to pack so many things in a bag.

J spent the whole evening digging out a suitable bag in the store room for Isa. This bag can't be too big else she will not be able to carry it. It can't be too small else all her wanted things can't go in.

In the end, her bag was heavier than the one we brought to KL.

What an interesting experience!
