Hi everyone... Post on ATC coming up.... Friday went to school at 9+am... Stoned for quite a while as Ken had not yet arrived (for he was holding the store key)... He came... Chucked stuff in store... Went to get fire wood.... Then took squad... Did whatever necessary stuff... Then took the bus to Changi Jetty... Reached, went to eat, took bumboat to Ubin, walked with fire wood to campsite... Finally reached, split from Sec 2s, joined our lot... Apparrently we were the last school to reach... Much later somemore... Lol... Then had briefings, split into groups.... Was in the group called Halo with Yibin and Ming Hao.... Then collected tent logistics then did pitching... Done, then went for first activity... Orienteering... Had theory, then did the activity... Was in the 3rd sub-group of our main group... Did the Round 1.... Could't understand the clue at first, so we asked a WCI for help... She made us do a cheer, so we did some random cheer then she gave us the location of the checkpoint... Went there, did the task then went back to slack... Didn't manage to play Round 2 cause of time constraints... After that was dinner I think... Ate the usual stuff like instant noodles with the canned food... After that was treasure hunt I think? Went about different places finding stuff... Can't remember the exact order of things.... Had time to discuss about campfire item... Had debriefs and dunno what... I think that's about all for the first day... Oh yeah... Mr Azman talked to us too... Lol... No sentry and fire drill...

Anyway, it's funny about the turn out for the camp... Definitely fewer than last year's if I remember correctly... Can see that some people didn't turn up for camp... People like Thomas etc.... The bloody *&^&* from my group/tent last year didn't turn up too... Then if I'm not wrong the Sec 3 turn out from Whitley was 1??! Not sure about their Sec 2s... But the whole gang didn't come save for one... Wasn't Amir though... Also, the turnout for the girls was also like damn little... 3 groups had 2 girls, 3 groups had 1... I think... Damn zai sia... Lol...

2nd Day.... Morning had PT, flag raising, breakfast... Our group was the half going for ATF first... So had some briefing... Wore harness and helmet, then straightaway went for the obstacles... At first was quite scared, really... But I guess I chose the not so difficult one? Went quite ok... Then wanted to go for more... But went to help with the ropes first... Then went up to do the second one... Did the last and probably the toughest one there... Last one to do that station.... The last to do the obstacles too... So a bit pressurizing... Lol... Done, then we had quite a bit of time... Dissussed new cheer and campfire item... The rafting group came back then we had lunch... After lunch changed into wet attire... But it started drizzling... So couldn't go out... So we did campfire songs... So in the end didn't go for rafting, didn't get wet... Good and bad I guess? The dinner final;y had a chance to shower... We had extra food to eat... Sec 2s came over damn fast... Many of us were damn late... Kelvin sir got us into pumping position and recover etc... Lol... The while everyone was like getting ready for campfire, Eunice and I were franctically trying to get our emcee scrput done properly.... Plus the fact that we were told many different versions for the same issue... So we were like nuts already... So whe everyone was seated already then went to our position... Waited for a while, then we started saying whatever things we had to say... We were damn unprepared... Was feeling damn nervous too as I don't normally talk in front of such crowds... Well, managed to make it a bit interesting I guess... Made some jokes which I don't normally do... Lol... On the whole I think it went quite ok... Well, first time as an emcee, nice experience... Nice working with you Eunice... Lol... All the performances were quite nice... The one put up by Sebastian's group was damn funny... Well, you gotta see it to believe it... Haha... Then Melvin acted as the usual retard pulling up his pants again... Haha... Damn entertaining... CIs did some songs too... Lol... Then campfire officially ended... For us Sec 3s we had to come up with some game, task posted to us by Chee Wee sir... We did some damn lame game.... After that was debrief... Then unit debrief... Then Tian Ming sir talked to us about some things... Talked till way past lights out, but we didn't mind... Meaningful.... No sentry again & fire drill....

Last day... Morning had PT, was one of those taking the PT session, others are Melvin, Louis and Mick... Took the running part... The was flag raising and breakfast... We were given french toast sia... Damn nice... After that unpitching of tents... The supposedly area cleaning... But was called up for the what Area 4 NCO committee meeting... Mr Azman talked to us about some upcoming project... What picnic thingy.... Another project.... Zzzz... Decided the committe thingy... I'm our unit's representative.... Ken's the vice-chair of the project... Lol... Mick's the chair... Somehow we managed to skip area cleaning.... Lol... That's damn bad... Haha... Had time left so we took group photos etc... Sec 2s arrived then we had the prize presentation.... Congrats Rui Jie for getting best camper... The rest don't get too disappointed.... Sec 3s we didn't get it too, but well, never mind. Done that, unit photos, unit cheer! Roar of CHSNPCC! After that we walked back to the jetty.... Took bumboat back... Then a number of us took the bus back with Guangyang.... Thanks GYSS! Took to Bishan NPC, then we carried the rations we brought back from ATC to school... Thank goodness the gate was open.... Rained just as we were about reach the school gate... Lol... Got a bit wet... Stoned in store for a while then we went to J8 to eat KFC... Oh yeah, before that, have to thanks Jason for "saving" me... Haha... Anyway, went to J8 to eat... Saw bunch of CIs/HOs/TOs eating at Cafe Cartel... Saw GYSS people at Macs, saw some others too.... Ate, nearly all of us killed our throats by drinking soft drinks, and we were having sore throats already... Lol... We watched some video game being played too, on the big display screen... Think Yan Hao sir was one of those playing.. Not bad sia... Lol... After that came home...

Well, ATC was pretty fun I guess, definitely better than last year's I guess... Activites were more fun.... A bit slacker than last year too? No sentry and fire drill for both nights? Guess we were lucky... Most of the people were better too... Or maybe cause those people didn't turn up? Dunno... Anyway, had quite a bit of fun, had a new experience being an emcee, met new friends, people like Tuck Wai (Yes, the Wong Tuck Wai) from RI... Retarded sia... Haha... Overall, good experience... Last ATC as a cadet.... Perhaps will miss Ubin, then again maybe not... Lol... One joke made... People go to Ubin for fun... We go there for training camps etc... Lol... Well, nice meeting everyone, hope to see everyone again...

This post sure took incredibly long to type, ok maybe cause I sidetracked a lot... Lol... Great, am ill now... Have been having a fever since yesterday.... Hope it's not ____.... Touch wood ah!!! Those who are sick do recover soon too!! Soccer match against 28th Batch tomorrow... Supposed to play as keeper, but may not be able to play in my condition... But I'll go down and support the team anyway.... Ok, bye people....
