OBS Days 1-3

I mean come on, what else is there to talk about? :D

Day 1
This was kinda boring cos we were stoning at the reception center for like 3 hours. Just did the normal intros and got out our stuff... haha I volunteered for Medic :P Didn't want do Day IC cos I didn't know what to expect. So after we reached Camp 2 we shifted all our stuff into the store and went for our kayaking practise, which was just learning the basics and doing capsize drill :P

Day 2
We had rock climbing that day and were supposed to wear long pants again. Sia lah, I only got 1 pair for the whole camp. Fuuuuuu. Landed up wearing my soaking wet track pants. But the rock climbing was fun. First time climbing an overhang :D The overhang in school is too hard >( once that one finish we packed all our expedition stuff and moved over to the campsite at Punggol. Dinner was kinda fun cos we sort of knew each other so Anda was talking.. alot. Then again, she always finds some way to make everything fun for everyone haha :D That night was kinda screwed cos the night before we didn't have the netting. So that night 3.30am started raining and enzo woke us to bring our stuff in. That was when I felt the mosquito bites. Spent like the next 2.5 hours just scratching them ><

Day 3
This was the actual Land Expedition day. The night before it was more or less Long Boon, Chin Teng, Enzo and me who planned it. So since everyone had to take turns to navigate we gave the first shift to Nasihah, who promptly set off to the road. We all didn't know could use the park connector :P Lucky Muru told us and we got a headstart on Cheng Ho. Wah the backpacks were hardcore screwed up. Then since my bag was much lighter I decided to hand carry the tent a the way T.T The worst part was the islands Pulau Punggol. That stretch took us an hour, the the whole place was like some hardcore ulu place :P Then Long Boon commando also saikang alot haha. We reached the campsite around like 1.15pm. Stupid weather sia, downpour started right after we pitched the tents. So all we could do was sit in them and watch water leak through. That was seriously like total hell. All of us were soaked, and the were pools of water in the tent. Lift up your bags water started gushing out like siao. 2 tents collapsed and most of us ended up hugging our legs to ourselves :P Cooking was damn screwed also cos all of us were cold and shivering. Really appreciate my dry, clean bed now :D Then the girls conspired with us by telling us about the mosque further in, cos by right must use the bushes.. but by left, we organise some mass toilet trip to the mosque. During sentry duty saw Yi Ling, Gerald amd Aida staying by the beached kayaks. Me and Long Boon decided stay, cos trust must me, the tents were HELL.

I think I'll finish up Day 4&5 tomorrow bah, my eyes are closing alr :P plus, still going HQ for Ma'am's goodbye aero session. Maybe shd've bought something for her :P

Good Night
