Hey all! I'm back from Ex 1. Its a rather boring yet tiring camp.The camp started from
sunday and end today.
Day 1(Sunday): Woke up at 11+am, bathe,checked my bag for the last time and rotted infront of the computer till 3.40pm before I leave home to go to school.Had 1 min in, 1 min out at about 4.20pm. Luckily I've time myself before the camp.Pitch tend in the afternoon till about 6pm then had my dinner.One packed of noodle for dinner. 101% not nice! But too bad. No choice but to eat. Had lesson after dinner. Lesson till 9.30pm then had worship.Marcus played the guitar.Worship till 10pm then wash up.Closing parade after wash up. Sleep at about 2am.
Day 2(monday) : woke up at about 4.15am. Woke the other boys up at 4.30am. Strike our tents and wash up till 5am then report. Had 101% not tasty noodles for breakfast again at 5.30am So we need to cook again... Had our last briefing till 6.30am before we depart to Bishan. My team was the 1st group to leave but is last group to reach check point .1st check point is Sin Ming Industrail Estate. We failed that check point as we are very late. My team are late becos of me cos I've walked the wrong way. All the plotting done by me is correct only that we've walked the wrong way. 2nd check point : Bukit pajang Nature reserve. This time round the plotting is still done by me CORRECTLY. But Caleb make the whole gro walk the wrong way. We walked all the way to Tree Top there before we knew that we've walked the wrong way. The way to and out of the Nature reserve is easy, it's only 1 way. But its very long. Saw monkeys there.And learn something about monkeys. Its that their skin cant be cut by barbed wire. They f=hold on the the barbed wire and nothing happens! Walked out of the Nature Reserve to Thomsom Road then walked to Yishun. Saw one my my primary school friend in the check point in Yishun... Walked to Sembawang park and reach there about 8.40pm. Luckily my group is not the last group to reach the last check point.Had Fried Rice for dinner XD Finally a nice dinner! Pitch tent after dinner. And we all need to strike the tent becos of 4 people.They are Qian Yu , Wei Shen,Andrew and Vincent. Everyone tent is completed but becos of them everyone need to strike. Jun Xiong and I share the same tent and while striking out nice tent, we lost our tent pegs go after we strike our tent, we still need to pitch again . This time round we all cant pitch our tent as most of our tents peg are camouflage in the grass and some more there are no light there so its very dark. In the end we strike and pitch for 3 times before we manage to pitch a tent using tree branches as our tent peg. After I went inside my tent, I immediately sleep.
Day 3 (Tuesday,Today) : Woke up at 7am and reported at 7.15am. Had 101% not tasty noodles again for breakfast. After eating, I poured the remaining soup left into the drain, and some of the small noodles also flow into the drain with the soup. After breakfast, theres inspection. The officers wants me to get the noodles in the drain out, so I gotto squeeze into the drain and pick up the noodles with my hand =( After it, we gotta strike our tents and had debrief after it. Went back to school after debrief. Sang vesper and went to Mac with friends for lunch.Had Mega McSpicy upsize for lunch and went back home to bathe and sleep till 6.30ppm before I have my dinner and tuition.Tuition-ed to 9pm and now here!
