12.3.2010
Got back from school abt 7 something, quickly rushed and packed my remaining stuffs for camp. Had to lend jovyn an extra trackbottom and sleeping bag.... Reached skul abt 8 something cuz so jam. Pfft... Gathered and "splited" patrols. I was in DELTA. =DD And i got the post of PENOLONG KETUA PATROL. Then, season brought the girls up to 5 Adil, the girls' dorm. There were only 6 girls. Whooper. Joined tables together to be our "beds". Then we went down for the first activity- Treasure Hunt.

It was pretty okay, except for the fact that our patrol leader kept being so irresponsible that a senior had to switch his and my jawatans. so in the end, i became KETUA PATROL. Pfft. It took a pretty long time to finish it, but we got 1st anyway. but it was oso cuz of other patrols technical error. Pui. After supper of milo and biscuits, we went to sleep abt 1am.

Woke up about 3am, so only got abt 2 hrs of sleeep. Actually, we were suppose to b awake at 5, but we couldn't sleep, so we hung around for another 2 hrs. Brushed teeth, didn't even bother to change. Went to the volleyball court and did stretching and crap. Den we went belakang bengkel to learn some songs and games to wake us up before having breakfast which Zi ling cooked.

Then we went back to our dorms where Hui Qing taught us how to do inspection.
After that, we went to Dataran Setia for Upacara Bendera. Then we got our Log Books and went into 5 Jaya for our sessions with the scouters. They explained the scouts uniform, the logos and what they meant, the persetiaan pengakap, the undang-undang pengakap, prinsip-prinsip rukun negara and what is it to be a scout. After a few sessions, as well as some lunch which people thought were disgusting and tasteless, ( i thought it tasted pretty good with tomato sauce...) we went for halangan komando.

We went through a series of obstacles like stepping through rubber tyres, walking on a very thin bridge, going through some strings, monkey bars, hanging upside down and moving a on piece of rope, jumping over tables, a maze where you crawl under tables, and the last one. CRAWLING THROUGH MUD. At first, i didn't go down enough, so i had to do it TWICE. goodness...

After showering all that mud off in the boys' toilet, (cuz the girls toilet was too small and too muddy) we went for a session of sejarah pengakap. The scouter showed a video clip where everyone fell asleep watching. We copied down some notes about Lord Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden Powell, the founder of scouts and the author of Scouting For Boys. Then we learned some knots, which everyone was pretty blur with. The first 2 patrols that finished, Alpha and Delta, got to find out that our theory exam was postponed to tomorrow morning. And we weren't allowed to tell Beta and Charlie.

After dinner, we went for MK. (Malam Kebudayaan), where everyone was suppose to perform something. My patrol performed the CHICKEN DANCE. LOL!
Patrol Alpha and Patrol Beta did a sketch each, which were pretty funny, while Patrol Charlie performed a song on food like char koey teow, roti canai, teh tarik, pizza hut and crap. It was pretty fun all in all... After MK, Jovyn, Penny, Chee Yen and me stayed behind in the O.C room to learn how to tie our knots properly. We eventually went to sleep at 1am.

Woke up at 3am again, cuz of Penglihatan Malam, or "Burung Hantu". They blind folded us, and made us hold on to our friend's shoulders and walk around the school. I was pretty lucky, since i'm ketua patrol, i got to be in front, and it was Hui Qing leading me. I knew where I was most of the time, even when she made me walk about 3-4 rounds around the volleyball court. Except only when one guy practically
DRAGGED me, but i was STILL on the volleyball court. Through one hour, I was only sitting/standing on the volleyball and basketball court. (Does this mean i'm sporty? LOL. )

Went back to sleep at 4.30, then woke up at 6 something. After the normal senaman pagi, had breakfast. After breakfast, we had inspection, then did our theory test. It was pretty hard, and I tembak-ed alot. Then went for kawad. After kawad, we went to do our ujian stesen. 3 guys, including Ru-Jin, didn't have to take their ujian stesen cuz they got so high, unexpected marks for the theory.

*Phew* I told you this is gonna b a REALLY long post....

To cut things short, we took a pretty long time to do our ujian stesen, including laporkan diri part. There was stesen Rukun negara, Lambang Pengakap, Ikatan, Pakaian Seragam Pengakap, Persetiaan, Hormat and Sejarah. I finished Rukun negara, Lambang, Ikatan and Sejarah on my own and was doing Hormat half way when our scouter decided to express things up and everyone do it together.

After cleaning up our room and upacara bendera, we got our theory papers back and our keahlian badges. I got 61 for my theory!! Yay!!

Jovyn, me, Penny and Chee Yen went with Yong Wei and Jia Sheng to 7/11 and were lepaking around before we all went back.

I'VE FINALLY FINISHED POSTING!!!!
WHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
