Day 1
oh my gosh, it's the ne plus ultra of tedium.(ROAR)
I so wanted to break away from the camp.
Was utterly filled with regret of not ponning.
My mind was a little jumbled. Still jaded from the pre-camp trepidation.
The agony, of knowing that you have to sleep in tents with strangers.
2.30pm
We reached the jetty. Waited anxiously for the boat to come.
Everybody was quiet. Unusually silent.
3.00pm
we reached the notorious Pulau Ubin, known for it's obnoxious inundation of hornets and other
appalling sights such as insects infestations of tents.
Everything suddenly thundered in my mind that life here was gonna be very agonising.
We walked the seamless path towards our resilience camp site, which was roughly a deplorable
4km walk.
My squad mates kept spamming the word 'dou', which basically meant frazzled.
The interminable and arduous journey intensfied the schorching heat.
Even the sun wants to come 'gan' us.
4.30pm
After a long, exhausting walk, we had to immediately split up to our different groups.
Oh my gosh, stupid Yan Ni pon, zzz.
I solo bodo,sighs. Atleast there was Justin (newtown sec) who was in the same group as me during our Sec 2 ATC.
We went up to pitch our tents. Diverse insects and filth, patches of kakhi leaves and grass were strewn across the field. Grasshoppers scoured the sizzling air.
Dubious but candid, though i've always thought that ACS people are very intellectual.
me: hey go tie a clovehitch* there.
acs dude: huh? what's clove hitch?
me: -.-
*The final of the eight basic knots.
5.00pm
Some mentally challenged Cadet Inspector : How long do all of you need to finish the tent?!
Some Tanglin corpulent dude(later known to us as Wei Jun) : Whole day!
Well, i'm aghast at how these people actually scoff and snark at the officers despite the obvious difference in echelons, and on top of that, blithely.
However, the c.is didn't do anything after that and just told us to continue pegging.
6.30pm
Discovery of super irritating people (Pin Yang and Salleh especially, and oh my gosh someone save my group? Salleh's in my group! Both amazingly adept attention seekers).
Also, the attendant discovery of how impuissant the C.Is are in the sec 3 ATC camp. Things are slacker. They used to do all sorts of amazing antics to us for every measly thing we do wrong and now ignore the strings of virulent profanities. Hmmp, contributed immensely to my disdain for them.
7.00pm
Illegal gathering for ctnp xD.
Chicken rice for dinner. miracle!
Well, some who were not as blessed, had ants running across their rice. Thank God my food is clean =D "Lucky you" to me and "too bad lors" for those pitiable souls.
7.45pm
Ice breakers and debrief session.
Tedium.
10pm
Lights out.
Can't sleep.
The incessant introduction of noise pollutions.
Area 16 is gay. Oh my gosh.
Some people in my tent were either imbued with irresponsibility and/or fraught with laziness, and it's pure laziness to the hilt.
someone save me.
11pm
i prayed to God to save me.
to protect me.
from all the bugs and noise.
to give me the ideal schedule for the activities for the second day.(1.topography, 2.high elements, 3.Wet activity.)
i prayed to God to cancel the whole camp.
I know that He hears me like He has always.
11.15
inauguration of the "S.S.S" policy- Spam Snake powder to Sleep
the plethora of "muffled" laughters worsened the lush humidity.
Around 2am
slept.
Day 2
5.15am
I woke up, with a very dry and sore throat. Freezing from the dry, piercingly cold air, i buddied with Wei Zhong, a dude from tanglin, and no he is not one of those annoying Tanglin hooligans. He decries profanities. We went for our washup. Met Boris and Ahmad there. On the way back to the tentage, i saw Nicholas Wong. I saw him alone and was like, bewildered by his audacious act of going solo.
Me: eh you siao ar? C.I catch you how?
Nicholas: Don't care only, solo, solo.
Afterwhich we had a clandestine rendezvous for CtNp male cadets.
6.00am
Totally preposterous.PT in the morning? come on, NCC wakes up with hot piping breakfast ready and we have to run around ubin T.T, early in the wee hours. The abhorrent torment, of both physical and mental torture.
Had to do pushups and crunches, about 10 each. The doing part was okay, only thing is that we had to do it on the filthy, sticky, soggy field fraught with mud.
The pointy grass managed to poke through my dry fit unit T.
7.05am
Having completed the frazzling P.T, we had 45 minutes for breakfast.
Some idiotic malay guys from Jin Tai stole our solid fuel and food.
Pin Yang (the most annoying twerp in Area 16 NPCC, known for his obnoxious big fat attitude which does not compliment with his puny body size): Eh who's my group one ar? give me solid fuel lehz
Bang Hao( some nan hua guy): who would own up that they belong to his group
*well, he has a point xD.
had baked beans and biscuits for breakfast, was too torpid and lazy to cook. Anyway, who would except the bunch of fools from Tanglin? xD
7.05am
The very first activity, amazingly 'intriguing' and'exhilerating'. Comprises of high energy release via 'running at very high speed'. The reknowned activity, known for it's obnoxious tedium.
Topography.
And to compound the problem, my group had to go through the most arduous route of all.
Had to go to and fro, thus, with the additional help from our super slacked officer, we managed to skip the last checkpoint :D.
11.45am
camped at the foyer to await lunch.
12.00pm
lunch
maggie mee...
the agony,....
save me...
12.55pm
HIGH ELEMENTS.
LOL, the instructor is a funny old chap.
He uses profanities and the way he teaches us is simply hilarious.
And, he's an officer from the police force, for thirty years.
