Dear Replacement
As you can see from the title, this is a piece of electronic mail, or email for short.
From the way you said that you weren't really interested as we discussed before the holidays started, I was rather surprised that you took interest when I sent you that message.
I have absolutely no idea, that this phyz camp was going to be this similar to last year. What they had in common were the interactive sessions and lessons and one lecture was a repeated lecture, with repeated jokes, so I knew beforehand what the answer to his jokes were going to be, and when he was about to tell a joke. Nevertheless, I love that lecture. It was a good one.
Tomorrow is going to be- DIY project competition, lunch, then quiz then bye bye. The DIY project competition, as I briefly heard, is something to do with a boat competition. Well, last year it was one of thsoe put a diver in a bottle and squeeze it and let it sink competition, so I suppose the boat competition is going to be something along that standard.
As you heard from me, it has been a rather boring day for me (It got a little better when I started talking to the other NUSHS students), and I don't think that it would be anymore fun the next day. The lecture theatre was extremely cold, and I thought I was going to get hypothermia. The way i stayed alive was by putting my hands in my bag.
I have no guarantee that it would not be a waste of time for you, afterall, who am I to judge, since I have already been through this last year, boredom might be the underlying reason. So, I decided to spend my time doing something more useful like going to DSO to work on IRP. However, considering that you know some of the people there, I don't think it will be that bad for you. :)
Another thing to note. this is how I interprete what I found from the NUS net.
Frequently asked questions
12) What happen if some registered students is unable to attend the session last minute?
Please find replacements for students who are unable to attend as the fees are not refundable.
Firstly, it says last minute. Secondly, Dayna just told me that her sister replaced her without much beforehand notice. I remember quite clearly too that this was how it worked last year. Again, I am not sure about replacements on the SECOND day, because registration is on the first day. However, I dont' see much of a problem with replacement on the second day, so I strongly reckon that it should be okay.
Regarding whose name would be printed on the certificate (well, if you really care about that, which I don't think you are those sort of person who will), and other administrative issues, I am not so sure. But there are not grades or anything, or major implication on any testimonials, I don't think the name on the participant's list really matters.
Of course, if no one replaces me, no harm will be done in any sort of way, so please don't feel like you are doing me a favour. ( I think my tone in this sentence sounds weird, so disclaimer to you: I am saying this in a very friendly tone). So go ahead, replace me, if you believe that it is going to be worth your time. :):):):):):):) (This paragraph really sounds offensive, but since I do not know how else to phrase it, let me just make things easier for myself by telling you that this is said in a happy tone of voice) :)

If I don't go, I will be going to DSO, which is really near there, so I could pass you the file and stuff for the phyz thing in the morning, and maybe take u there if needed. DSO working hours are really free, and I am not meeting jk until late morning.
There.
Enjoy your holidays
:)
