The holidays
gonna end soon damn it.
Watched Golden Compass, played badminton and wasn't there to witness arsenal's defeat to middlesbrough. Still find it unbelievable that they lost to them. sigh.
Golden Compass is a nice show imo. The story is slow no doubt, but since its part one of a trilogy, just like Lord of The Rings part one, there's gotta be explaination and stuff to make you ready for part two. The ice bears are veryvery cool, nice, realistic looking and the fight scene was awesome. Too bad the final battle at the end was a bit short and not that exciting as the ice bears'. Trying to find the book that the movie was adapted from, but I searched for it and realised its available in Jurong. great. Maybe I should just buy it hmmm.
Inroduced a korean drama to sq and he also introduced me one. Witch Yoo Hee. Wooo, what a good way to spend your holidays. Instead of doing the same routine stuff, like wakeup-go training-lunch-watch tv-play-sleep day by day, I'm exposed to more things now, through dramas. Maybe I'll learn something nice from the show.
Campcraft comp training getting more and more interesting. Breakthroughs, challenging yourself, bettering your own timing set by yourself. Even though its an own time own target kind of training, we still strive to break our previous timing. And if we really bettered or maintain the timing, the feeling is, definitely good and encouraging.
A bunch of stuff I gotta finish:
Clean up my study room
Tidy up my sec1 and sec2 books and papers. damnit i hate papers
Finish chinese homework. ihopeitsnot10%ofca
And I think the last thing should be finish watching witch yoo hee by the holidays because when school starts it's gonna be damn busy for everyone I suppose.
Oh ya, I haven't buy all my books yet.
I hope Arsenal would prevail against Chelsea. imo.

dinner.
Monday's free for me. Therefore, I went back to malaysia to spend some time with my family. Its better than burning my weekends doing nothing. The holidays are too packed and I get little chance to see my parents and siblings. sigh. Anyways, we spent our whole day in kluang. We ate some very delicious beef noodles. The beef doesn't taste bad at all and the soup is very nice. That was lunch. For dinner, we ate seafood. woots. Delicious crab and fish. I craved for these kind of food for such a long time. haha. I'm afraid that next year will be a fucking busy year man. Then I can't go back to johor during the weekends next years anymore. Man, I'm gonna miss them. I can't bear to leave them. Sometimes I regret studying in singapore.
Let's forget about that first. I don't wanna think about that anymore. I'll just live my own life my own way. If I feel like going I'll just pon whatever things that's standing in my way. Speaking of food, I went to eat korean food woah. To any those korean lovers, if you're interested , do tell me. I'll tell you the address hahaa. Its somewhere in chinatown. Very nice food, very nice staff too. Friendly people.
That's all for today. I'm gonna chiong my bandit now.

Hey there peeps. As you all can notice, I changed my skin. Its about time for a change hehe. I doubt the skin works well in firefox, haven't try yet. To those that find any problem with the skin, please do tell me.
Putting that aside, it has been about one week since I last posted. In this one week, campcraft comp training started. We did quite a lot of stuff and the team needs a lot of practice. It wasn't very interesting, it wasn't very boring too. Learnt a lot of stuff, theory and practical. We needed to work as a team, well, it seems hard at times. There were conflicts and arguments between us. We must put those things aside, best to forget it, just kiss and make up, but it isn't so easy. Some people's ego are just too fucked up at times. But a team has to be able to tolerate. I really hope we get into the finals. It has always been my dream after watching the 28th batch getting top10. I was there during the prelims when I was still a little sec1 kid. Yeap, the finals, that's our goal. Nevertheless, want and can is two different things. So I hope everyone in the team, including myself would train hard to achieve that goal as a team.
Damn, so many trainings is a good thing to train, it is also a bad thing as I can't get back to Malaysia eventhough its the holidays now.zzz. nevermind. I can go back during the weekends. Hopefully, I can make it for the class gathering.

sec2 atc 2007.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Area 4 Adventure Training Camp in Pulau Ubin. Camp Resilience they called it.
Day 1
We met in school at around 1040. Almost the whole squad went to eat breakfast in the Bishan North there before going to school. Hehe, seems like our squad is getting more united xP. Anyways, after we fall in, we sat and the sirs taught us some new campfire songs and revised the old ones we know. After that, we boarded a bus to the Changi Jetty. Then we took the bumbleboat to Ubin. Man, I've been there just a week ago for the hike. Then we walked to the campsite somewhere near Noordin Beach. Just when we reached, we were told that we were late. Dumbfounded, we hurried and fall in with the rest. The first activity was actually tent pitching. For the first time, I saw the other schools people doing what we were doing during training. The CIs were very strict, keep shouting to us to hurry up. My tent compromises me and ryan, two kcps, one bpss and one ri. Luckily there was ryan :). Or else i doubt the tent would stand. I think our tent was the nicest in the whole tentage area haha. The tentage area was full of rocks, and pegging was hard to complete. But I didn't complain. After tent pitching, we played some ice breaker games and learnt some basic survival skills which was already needed in the hike last week. There was unit debrief before lights out, with yanhao sir saying something that was missing in us for teh first day. I think what he said motivated us as the second day was way better. Day 1 went by fast, after some games. Night sentry was up, luckily my shift was 1pm-2pm or else I would be sleep walking.
Day 2
The fire drill started the day and set the tone for today. Do everything with a sense of urgency. However it was seriously lacking in some people. Breakfast came after morning physical training. I like to cook, not joking. Enjoyed lighting up the solid fuels but people doesn't appreciate what I did. Took the stove without saying anything and it pissed me off a lot. Kayaking came next. Two man kayak. Argh i hate two man kayaks, slow and need to coordinate movements, but that's the most important lesson they want us to learn. The kayak keep drifting as I kept telling the joker which side to sweep but he has some hearing difficulties or problems understanding me. Paddling in Ubin waters is weird, way different from Changi as the water seems easier to paddle as if there wasn't any resistance. And the water stinks, wihch made it impossible for me to wash my face. I like to wash my face during kayaking, freshens me up hehe. Washed up and lunched, then came ATF. The second cycle required us to do rock climbing, low ropes and a maze which is completely pitch black. Unfortunately there was lightning and we didn't manage to do rock wall and low ropes. Damn, I never climbed a man made rock wall in my life before...The maze was completely black, full of obstacles that needed the people in there to coordinate the movements and inform each other of the incoming obstacles. ATF time was boring due to the lack of activity. After that, we washed up and dinner. Nightime Campfire time. The skits were mainly funny. The campfire was fun and interesting, especially the performance by the instrutors/officers. Initiative games was next. Then lights out, luckily no fire drill or sentry duty.
Day 3
Final day, morning pt then unpitching of tents. Sleeping in tents was a great experience. Very cold, so close to nature. Then it was area cleaning. Cleaning of tent sheets. Communication was important. Break camp was near when we changed to the Noordin Campsite. Prize Presentation! Best Motivator awards wasn't fair I guess, but nevermind forget it. The important thing is ruijie clinched the best camper award. Everyone thought it was gonna be sebas but it turned out the other way. I do hope sebas won't feel bad, because he seemed sad and disapppointed after that. Nevermind, at least CHSNPCC proved its point to everyone. After break camp, we took squad photos and did the unit cheer. Then we walked back to the jetty and bade goodbye to the ATC.
