havnt blog bout 2day n ytd, therefore doing so now.
ytd went sch for more prep work for vietnam, then had a short amaths lesson (i pon halfway) n early dismissal @ 1pm. had lunch, then went 2 do some shopping for the items. found that we kena cheated when we payed $5.90 for 4 flashcards. fuck. nvm, thks 2 kannan, we found a reason to claim that cost.
2day went 2 sch damn early for spec course revision (mainly c and c) n finally got the admin instructions for spec course. i would be at AMQ camp for 2 days on 8-9 jun. after that much more prep work for vietnam. i kena little red riding hood's grandma in the skit performance for the orphans. nvm. after that we packed in the goodies for the children. after dismissal was more shopping......this time finally got everything we need. kena conned $0.60 by popular (bras basah complex). my fault for nt checking the chg properly.
now im damn tired due to fatigue......i only got 13.5 hrs of sleep in the past two days. and it would be my 3rd camp out of 4 in less than a month in two days time.
hv lots of fun in ur holidays....

back fr sec 3 camp......

Day 1
reported at 1430 for briefing, waited till 1600 then set off. i cut myself with my own knife( i dont know how i did it), even b4 we set off. i was in the last bunk of 3h (35/57). i saved them fr ricky, tat's wat they said. finally when reached tg pagar we were allocated to car 9, which was the closest 2 the loco but dunno y dont hv aircon. very hot. the ride was even more sian until derek tan fell asleep. he dint let us step out of the car besides going to the toilet. past midnite was more exciting (see below).

Day 2
i borrowed the ghost mask fr kisnaa n did wat i wanted 2 do. to scare each n every1 in the car besides derek tan (leave him for the return trip). i lent it 2 car 8 n they did the same. at 0315 finally reach jerantut. n we reached tekam at abt 0500. rested till 0700, had breakfast n rest again. activities started in the aftnn. our gp did abseilinbg 1st, quite fun as its my 1st time doing it on natural wall (i've done it many times on brick wall). i was the first to go. after dinner had nite activities.... design the team logo n flag... i gave out an interesting presentation (although it was sian for abt 50% of the time). and is getting the mike to finish my joke considered a great achievement? (tat's wat my classmates tell me) at night, quite peaceful sleep. 10 ppl came into my bunk. the word "park" (fuck) was invented.

Day 3
went for wet activities the whole day.....kena by derek tan when we set off coz i say bye to 3g n 3i. nvm, still enjoyed ourselves. morning did flying fox n river crossing. kena screwed again cos when the guide tell me to go into the river, i say 'let the girl in front of me go further first then i go cos i scared i too fast.' aftnn did white water rafting. feel that the capsize drill part was redundant. at night do team buliding again.... this time under mr mui, ask us to gather all the reflections of ppl in the grp n present. i, of course, was sabo-ed to present again. had quite a late night. due to GCH's debrief.

Day 4
almost late for reveille, did the cave exploration in the morning. made a very big mistake by wearing gd shoes n nt bringing extra clothing n footwear. nvm, it would dry....... it did dry in the canopy walk. it was great fun swinging the platform when ppl r on it n make them so scared. n also make them look down when they dont want to. my dryness of shoes were back to sq 1 in rapid shooting. everything juz got wet. its alright, n again we were the first grp to reach tekam in the evening (our grp(D) were the 2nd to return to tekam on day3, the first on both day2 and 4). had lots of time to bathe n change. at reporting time (2050) it was raining. campfire was cancelled (we dint prepare much). the coach sent us to the MPH of the resort where we saw the beautiful side of the *exotic* tekam plantation resort (we had been seeing the ugly side for the past few days). then after dinner (it was already 2300 then) it was camp closure. i got prizes fr zahara n derek tan. 3h guys had a ttl of 6 prizes.

Day 5
after camp debrief was boarding the bus to the train station. at the station the train was delayed fr 0224 to 0349. we left jerantut at 0400 sharp. we slept the whole journey. at kluang the loco was changed again, n at johor there was no immigration so the immigration officers (only 2) came into the train to check the passports person by person). all these caused more delay to the arival in spore. the train went thru the borders at only abt 1330, n finally reached tg pagar at 1500. we're back home. n its the end of the camp.

in this sec 3 camp, i learnt lots of things:
1. malaysia's interstate natl h'ways can be of only one lane in each way.
2. jerantut's town centre is no better than a shophouse estate in spore.
3. 64 km takes abt 1.5h to travel by coach.
4. i see only one miserable building in kota gelanggi when 'kota' is supposed to mean 'town'.
5. RTM2 provides tamil and chinese news besides malay language.
6. AC Milan 2-1 Liverpool in champions lge final.
7. the cave in taman negara was much difficult then i expect.
8. i dint use much of my experience in the camp.
9. ricky can dont bathe for 5 days.
10. there's nothing to be disappointed abt when i hv already put in my outrmost effort.
11. the camp commandant and year coach regard me as 'most helpful'
12. i dont like the way the leaders in this camp lead.
13. coz i use too much of military mindset thinking abt it.
14. the door is a very lousy one. three simple kicks in it+a few slams to it makes it fit for change.
15. my knife has been of great help to me in preventing myself getting into fights.
16. physically close distances can be worlds apart.
17. 32 has become the most sensitive number in the camp.
18. i am prepared at all times to surrender the battle that has just begun with me starting at the extreme losing end.
19. time really flies. therefore always cherish the present, esp those who you love and those who love you.

that's the end of our first and last sec 3 ACE camp. it has been a very successful one.
upload the picts tmr.

ytd wasnt my last post b4 pahang. this post is.
well, kinda excited now. spent the morning packing up
(and of course also planning the sabotage for ricky)
the trip isnt going 2 be new to me, i've experienced at least 75% of the activities, so it'll be no prob 4 me. i dont beliv this trip is going to tire me out. the total time of sleep is= total sleep i get in more than 2 annual camps.
bye for now, best of luck in pahang!

Tuesday, May 22, 2007

last post (or maybe last 2nd) b4 we set off to jerantut.
dont expect the camp 2 be tiring at all. although im beaten out with fatigue now, it was the vietnam trip tat caused me my energy. to me, the camp wud be juz another holiday away from home.
the IT lesson was fun. 2day is ms joseph's last day.....she was a very gd SS teacher although our grades werent impressing. wish her gd luck in her future endeavours.
the pahang trip saved us fr 1 AM period. hooray!
aft sch was briefing again, n wat does it mean by "keep up the gd job" when at least 50% of the notes was critisized?
when i was writing this, i noticed that i left my report bk in sch.
DONT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH YOUR RESULTS. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO WORK HARD NEXT TIME. WE CANNOT CONTROL THE WIND, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS ADJUST THE SAILS.

ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD IN LIFE. LOOK AT AND THINK OF WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO, NOT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE.
trg in the aftnn, looks like my command and control isnt bad at all.
btw heard that the drink stall opp sch would be moving soon. end of month.

Tuesday, May 15, 2007

returned to sch, got back results. nt fun. did quite well, a bit better than i expected. but remember, no matter what,
DON'T FEEL LIKE DYING IF YOUR RESULTS ARE NOT UP TO EXPECTATION.
coz the world is much more than results. we arent 3i where our life rotates around results, studies n sch work. there's much more to look forward to in life. Always remember, failing does nt mean that u hv failed, it means tat u havent succeeded yet. Remember tat victory is always possible 4 the person who refuses 2 stop fighting.
If u got very good results, i hv juz 1 thing 4 u 2 remember, that is even u r on the right track, u will get run over if u juz sit there.
enough of that.
in AM lesson i was called up twice in one simple aftrnn. 4 ncc. schedule is getting tighter day by day. prepare for a donation drive tmr onwards.

now lets keep in touch with the world
1. Singapore is named the fifth most tax-friendly economy in the world after UAE, Qatar, Hong Kong and Cyprus. That makes the republic second in Asia losing out only to Hong Kong. by Forbes
2. Although breaking the 3500 mark yesterday, the ST Index fell 26 pts to close at 3475 in today's session. by SGX
3. For your information, Singapore will host one of the races in the 20-race season in 2008 for the Formula 1. Prepare to watch the likes of Kimi Raikonnen, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa racing through the streets around City Hall, Suntec and Marina Bay in their Ferrari and McLaren cars.
