then after my mum finish using the computer, she told me that i can use it now
she walk towards me and just took the potato chips away from me
what the hell
this time i was super pissed already la
whatever i do she also wants to snatch with me
at that time i was quite tired already
both mentally and physically
so i just cried lor
then she continued scolding
make me so pissed
so i just went into my room to rest
and talk to people
after a while my mum just came into the room
say i tired already still can talk to people
then she took away my phone and ended my call
fucker
after that make me go pack my bag
the camp bag lor
then while im packing she still want to nag
freaking hell
make me cry more
but also good
cos i wanted to cry already
but couldnt
i was so disappointed that i didnt get 2nd sergeant
i got only a 3rd despite my attempts
very disappointing

shall talk about my camp now
from day 1 to day 4

day 1:

went to school to change into no.4 then set off to HQ NCC
then there they ask us to surrender all the proibited items
i thought they will check through the stuff we surrender
then return those which is okay

so i just surrender my non-camera phone lor
how stupid can i get
in the end never get back
actually can use de lor

after that we took a bus to SISPEC
going to stay there
we got seperated into our platoons
and i was in the same platoon with khairul
at least i know someone there
hehe
there's also cresent girls and RVHS
last time go for camp feast i met them already
their standard very good
especially cresent
but they shout like boys even though they are girls
the boys dont like
haha

the first thing we did was put bags in bunk then march off to somewhere for lecture
then while marching, got this hwachong guy did the song
impress me
he was the first to give me a good impression in the platoon
and his timing quite good
after that another hwachong do also
but timing suck
screw the whole march
the lecture was about the things to take note in sispec lor
those usual stuff la

after that go back eat lunch and then go back to that place to hear opening adress
this time that hwa chong person asked me for my name
cos during lunch i very qiao sit beside him
then pass him stuff and all these lor
he was the first person i know
and then the girls
cresent and RV
but most deep impression was the hwachong person
whose name is jingkai
at first i head jie kai
then i was quite shocked
cos i know other people by the name of jiekai ma

talking about lunch
after lunch there's this GSK revision
General Specialist Knowledge
then got someone ask about factors affecting judging distances
then most of them shout one answer at a time
then i raise up my hand and talk about all the factors
so awesome
cos the sir was impressed
ask for my school
hehe

anyway, it was three talks at a go
the first one i didnt sleep
the second was about ncc core values
surprisingly it was quite ineteresting
but i dozed off at the third one
cos it was about someone's journey in NCC
doesnt really interest me
then at the back part i started dozing off
but quickly wake up
cos im sitting on the front row
very obvious de
i cant help it though
i just slept
after that we had the GSK test
walau
got some questions i never heard before de la
i just try lor

after that march back to the company line
for dinner

then after that go to bunk then put bags clean up the place
put bedsheets and stuff
the bed is awesome man
i love it
so nice
then pillow so fluffy
the cupboard also very nice
spacious
i like the bunk !
but i dont like the toilet bowl
haha
the toilet overall quite nice though
and there's a lot of showering time!
whoooo
first time lor
i can slowly bathe and wash my hair

sispec is nice!!

the food caterer suck though
hate the food

day 2:
morning physical training was slack
its just 20 jumping jacks, push ups and sit ups
then finish le
haha
cool
love it
there's no running lor
thankfully

we had trainfire and ifc test
trainfire was first
actually i revise until quite sure de
but i was the last few
then got some people keep asking me questions
until i also super blur

anyway, we had stripping of rifle first
the first try was quite fast
then slower for the second try
the third was the actual one
and i did it even slower!
wtf
kind of pissed la
also dont know what overcame me
i just became slower and slower each time
also, there is assembling
the first two tries i did it correctly
but on the third time i cocked up and did something wrong
seriously horrible

and next was loading and unloading of rifle
it was okay la
so so lor

after that it was IA drills
also not bad

lastly fundamentals of marksmanship
first time in 3 years that 10cent coin drop
idotic
but it was out of carelessness
so i had another try
hehe
and i passed

we had lunch and this time its much better
the portion was always huge and i cant finish it
eat 1/4 only

after that was ifc
i had much more confidence in this
cos its much easier

however
i hate movement by day
have to do all those crawl and stuff
i cant do it!
other than that, the rest was quite easy

the whole day just do this 2 test nia
too much waiting involved
sit until got cramp

then at night got lecture again
but i forgot whats that

day 3:
had morning training again
the same thing
hehe
i like it
so slack

after that it was the mutal
trainfire was first again
i did characteristics of the M16
i was the front few
so it was not bad la
i think i did quite a good job

my platoon mates say very good
she can understand what i say
hear already i of course happy la

finish already then i started to be timer
previous 2 days never do any stuff to shine
so now must chiong liao
never be timer also because the platoon 50 people
a lot
i scared my voice not loud enough
and i cannot hold on for a long time
in kranji only got 20 people ma
and my voice already not that loud liao
let alone 50 people
so a bit insecure la
but my RV friend told me to chiong
so i just try lor

then after lunch my sir ask me to take over as IC for the platoon
i very scared
cos i never be IC before
i scared i cock up or something
but since my sir told me to be means he thinks i got potential
so i must do well lor
or else i cant get my rank
i tried my best
but i still very blur leh
i never command before
so bit cock up la

but they say okay la
i hope so

by wed i already quite familiar with my platoon mates liao
can talk cock with them liao
haha
they say among the chinese girls im the best
cos the rest dont talk one
especially cresent girls
their standard very high
they dont slack
shout also very not nice
then the RV girl also not bad la
but her shouting very sharp
haha

jingkai say girls should not shout like that
lol
then when i be timer and be IC, i wonder if i shout like a guy too
but hor, other platoon de guys heard me shouting and say, finally got girl shout like girl
haha
of course la
im a girl what

after lunch was IFC mutal
i got more confidence for this lor
but very sad
cos this time im one of the last few
some of them very sian le
but i still think i did okay
cos i got pictures and stuff
and some additional methods

at night they change another timer
but i volunteered to conduct water parade when the sir wants it
haha
i shout until i feel like dying
totally strained
voice like no more liao
then very tired

there was lecture again
about discipline and also roles of specialists
quite okay la

at night slept at like 11 plus
actually lights out 11 de
but i talk to the RV girls lor
cos i realised that the cresent girls IFC mutal very alike
all the same style
then i double check with other platoon
those that got the same topic hor , did the same stuff for their mutal
so we all talk about them lor
gossip
my forte
lol
but cos i very tired so i went to sleep first
and i was the last to wake up in my bunk la
normally im the first few lor
so you know how tired i was
just because i was the timer/IC/conduct water parade
lucky i got strepsils
so my throat wasnt that bad

day 4:
no morning pt today la !
rejoice!

this time we fall in with no.4 uniform
cos do stuff ma

first had breakfast

then see weapons from the infantry unit
i wasnt really interested la
so i just stand there lor
listen one ear in another ear out
lol

see all these till lunch
boring
almost dozed off again
haha

sat with jingkai
then we keep chatting
lol
dont know why
but suddenly got a lot of topics to talk about
hahaha

after that got talk
by saf person
about the diff units in the army
this time also sit beside jingkai
also keep chatting

last day le ma
never chat then no chance
haha
but we really chat like nobody's business
lol

after that go back have parade
award presentation first
for trainfire best, ifc best, gsk best, best cadet in each platoon, best cadet for the company(there are 2 companies) and overall best cadet
derek did kranji ncc proud man!
got best for ifc leh
cool
wonder how he did it
can say im impressed
so if he is selected as kranji's company leader i also not surpirsed
although i'll be a little upset cos there goes my chance la
the award presentation was quite an eye opener
cos i didnt experience it before
quite jealous
i also want to receive best cadet award
i regretted not showing better standard and for starting so late
only 3rd day the chiong

i was still kind of hopeful that i could get 2nd sgt
then after the award presentation it was issuing of rank
then after all get we were told to open up the envelop and see what rank we got
my heart sank
i got only a 3rd
it was really depressing la
i did try for that rank
but sadly, i wasnt recognised

a lot of people in my platoon say i confirm get 2nd sgt
but they got shocked when i didnt
hais
i wanted to cry
but at that time reality havent sunk into me yet
i couldnt cry out
hais
i really wanted that rank..

after that we slack around
then assemble
at that time jingkai asked me for my contact
haha
he was like asking me, does your CO allow you to exchange contact number
then i was like, i think its okay
the situation quite funny
i saw the shy side of him
hahaha
then i was asking, what do you want
he said up to me
lol

after that got other people ask me also
hahaha

last time i go camp feast nobody ask me
make me so upset
cos i very quiet


such a long post
let me sum up everything
though i was upset that i didnt get my 2nd sgt rank
i improved a lot during these 4 days

this camp helped me improve relationships with other schools
initially i was afraid i cant communicate with the people there
actually at first i wasnt really interacting
but after lunch i already got 2 people names
jing kai and shu mei
shu mei is from cresent

then after that i knew faye
from river valley
she's a nice person
but with a very high standard of discipline
she was the one that showed me that river valley school ncc unit is good

and then i knew jovinna from cresent girls
nice girl she is

and then slowly i knew other guys
joeash
cool name
very cute also

and then gordon from hwachong
cos he was the IC
and he did a good job
i didnt talk to him though
he was super quiet
and i dont know what to say

and then it was the malay girls
fatimah and radiana
at first i found them irritating
cos they bombarded me with questions while we're preparing for the test
but they appreciated my help
which was what touched me
they thanked me for whatever i helped them in
even praised me
made me so remourseful for thinking that they're irritating

and then it was the malay guys
cos they everytime kajiao me
but i was fine with it
then they say im cool
the best among all the chinese girls
hehe
i was flattered of course

then on the last day the breakfast was muffins
then there's this malay guy in front of me that eat a lot of muffin
6 leh
i was like so shocked
then the person beside me say he crazy about cakes
haha
very cute lor
he cannot eat already but still continue eating cos he loves cakes
haha
i forgot his name though

oh
i know this ACS(I) guy
i forgot his name
but i got impression of him
his eyebrowns make him look very fierce
cos at the end its like curved up
but when he become IC right, he was very soft with us

i love ncc spec course'08!
