seeing so many people post about annual camp, it makes me feel like blogging about it too. okay, i wanted to blog about it long ago, but i am simply lazy. yeah.

it's a 2 days 2 nights camp for those who didn't know. yeah, everything was packed. aiya, those few days of camp really made me have mixed feelings. i was happy, sad, frustrated, stressed and pissed. yeah.

i don't really want to go activity by activity, cause it would too long for me to blog about it. anyway, i was the camp coordinator for the camp. so, i was like in charge of the whole camp. first day, campers came in at 7.30am and we had the flag raising. flag raising was screwed cause it stucked up there for damn long. then, after that campers had their bag check, in the end had to run 3 rounds for punishment. opening speech was next, and followed by bunk cleaning and ice-breaking games. we were preparing activities then and i got really pissed when no one wants to listen to me, they rather talk among themselves and joke around.

so, we had everything prepared and yeah, next up was intergroup competition. they said the game was damn sian. haha. anyway, we had lunch after that and first activity cycle was next. for me, i was supposed to oversee the whole camp but in the end i got to do the preparations instead. wasn't frustrated at first but when seeing people slacking over there when they are supposed to be preparing made me feel damn pissed.

carried on with second activity cycle, wash up, flag-lowering and dinner. nothing much happened. at night, we had treasure hunt, and ghost walk. cause our night confidence 1 was cancelled due to some reasons. haiz. anyway, during debrief, campers feedback that ghostwalk wasn't freaky at all, and the intergroup competition was damn lame. so, next we had our NCOs debrief till 2 plus. then siming sir wanted to talk to me, and i broke down on the spot. maybe cause i feel damn helpless and stressed then. so he talk to me for damn long and i went back to sleep. (ask me personally if you want to know what we talk about that night)

slept for 2 hours plus i guess. then i went down to take the flag raising. Morning PT was next, followed by Ironman Competition. yeah so in the end sebastian won. congratulations, you didn't disappoint me at all. :D oh ya, during morning PT, NCOs had a briefing by me and for some reason, i felt they were so different from the first day and they cooperated with me like mad. thanks guys. although i was really pissed the day before, but you all did help out a lot during the second day. yes, you guys are really marvellous. we are truely the 29th batch. :D

so, we had our breakfast followed by dry activity, gadget making and wet activity. nothing much for dry activity and gadget making but i think everyone will agree with me that wet activity is the best activity throughout the camp! right? haha. cause campers get to bomb the NCOs and officers and we, the NCOs get to bomb each other, the campers and the officers! :D fun right? hahaha. yeah, don't know why, the campers love bombing the camp coordinator, which is me. hahaha. everyone had fun right? :D so, campers went for their washup and followed by bunk cleaning, area cleaning and prize presentation. yeah, sebastian owned. not because the NCOs are biased or what, but because he earned it himself. he won the Ironman Title, Best Secondary 2 Camper, and got the Best Group Award. Anyway, Best Secondary 1 Camper was Gavin. yes. i know a lot of you don't agree to it, but we the NCOs had our reason for choosing him. we are not being biased or anything.

at night, we had BBQ for our dinner! first time in history of CHSNPCC that we had BBQ during a camp! :D hahaha. anyway, we had lots of fun then cause 26th, 27th and 28th batch sirs came back. woah, damn cool kay. and and, Area 4 CIs and Mr Azman came too. :D after that, we had a debrief for each squad and they were dismissed soon after that.

for the NCOs, we got to know about our new 29th Batch NCO Council Structure. shan't talk about it. and cadets, please stop asking about it too cause we will announce it when school reopens.

some of us went KFC after that and crapped a little, then went home after that. oh ya got to thank yong jie for treating us taxi that night :D

just some reflections after the camp. actually i was quite happy since the camp went quite smoothly throughout the 2 days. got to thank every squadmate for that. if not for you all, camp wouldn't have been successful. CHSNPCC 29th batch rocks right?!! :D also, during the talk with siming sir that night, i got to learn lots of stuffs. yeah, i just got to know another weakness i have.

oh ya, later my squad is gonna have countdown at leonard's house. cool hurr? :D my squad have always been so united! :D alright, that's all for the day.

CHSNPCC 29th Batch ROCKS!!! :D
