Just got back from taiwan not long ago, so here is the pictures of the trip for the first few days. There wasn't much thing to shop around, maybe more in looking at the sceneries and lotsa of food to eat. Just a little short and interesting stuff i found out during the trip before i let the pictures do the job.

Taiwan has 3 less and 3 more. It goes like this
1. Less Toilets ( the toilets there is seriously clean and well maintained by the people i tell u)
2. Less Dustbin ( really hard to find one if u missed the previous one)
3. Less Police ( they don't see the reason for the police to take care of the security of the nation)

Plus, the people there is really very honest and good, so you can trust them with your stuff, the more u hog your bag, the more you're telling people how rich or how much of money you have in your bag.

3.

I forget the 3 mores, so will update when i remember..... now for the photos.....

Credits to Adelin for taking the pictures!

Wooohooooo, it's been a freaking long time since i decided to blog something out. It's been taking too long for me to think of something to write while so many events has actually passed this week. Guess I've been either too busy to even sit down and blog about it or too tired once i got home after each tiring and testing day.

To start off, i think i will talk about my cousin's wedding that happen on a Sunday. The day started off quite early, well as early as 5.30am to start preparation, waiting for the groom to come over and pick the bride off over to his place. As the whole family is affected, i also had to wake up and start helping out with my family members to pack up the whole house, and also became a temporary cameraman, since the photographer will only make it to my house at around 8, so while waiting for him to arrive, I'm the photographer. *photos will be displayed at the end, but there isn't much since I'm lazy to wait for it to upload finish, so be happy there is even some photos displayed=D

Soon after, the groom came over, and we teased the groom and his friends for a while, making them do stupid stuff if they answered some questionnaires wrongly. Not only they had to suffer for about 30 mins, just when they think they can finally come over to the doorstep, they were asked to drink some water mixed with many many materials which the girls came up with, the feeling of sour, sweet, bitter and hot. Well, they were actually supposed to just finish up one cup, but since one of his friend tanked the whole cup, I feeling abit naughty, made the other few drink one each=)

Once they managed to go through that ordeal, they finally are able to enter the house and bring the bride over to his house. So while we have to wait for them to finish over at that side, our whole family went over to Geylang to have some famous Wan Ton Mee, before heading home to rest. I guess, i had too little rest, so once we reached home, i slept all the way till the whole family had to actually drag me out of the bed during the tea ceremony where everyone waited for me to get dressed and served tea. How embarrassing but, i think i was really really too tired that i slept too soundly le.

I think i will skip the rest of the details and let the photos do the talking, also i should be blogging about some club events that happened last week tomorrow since i don't want this to be such a lengthy entry... ENJOY!!!

MY LOVELY NEPHEW, Rapheal


The wedding cake


The Nervous Couple during the walk-in


Those sitting on the same tables as me during the dinner


All my working partners!!


Finally, a picture of me and my sister, the brides mate


Pictures are taken by me, so don't expect too muchXD

Really hasn't got the feel of writing anything or even any stuff that happened this week. Until now, spending 5 minutes just to write up this one line, shows how much of my feeling i have nowadays, not that i have been very very free, nor been so busy that i lost my mood. I guess i'm just busy with many many things that i seriously don't feel fulfilled at all, and full of regret as the day passes on.

Just reahed home after watching movie at cine, now just can't to sleep feeling super tired. I lost all reason to carry on so i guess i will stop here, and see the stars!!

Am i just waiting for the right moment, or not even doing anything?? Confused yet feeling ever strongly whenever. .. ...

Haven't got the right thing to write about this few days, so didn't update for the past few days!!

Currently in school preparing to stay overnight to keep guard on the computers, so might as well just talk about what happen this week, its nothing interesting either, so don't go expecting too much from it! Had a my only test, which is DBMS in the afternoon. Didn't revised much for the module, perhaps just come hints and tips from Gavin and Wei shan at the booth just before the test. Was quite an easy paper this time, so i should be able to get at least B? lol.

Was kinda lost thinking of what to write in here, but it seems i better just finish up what i have started since i have already stayed up the whole night without even sleeping a wink. Not like it's my first time doing this, but usually i will at least nap for a bit or hibernate when not doing much. Most of the time was playing games, different one at different time, and using the rest of the time after each interval to finish the assignment which i should be able to hand it in today. Seems like it was quite an easy assignment part, and I didn't went on to finish it up, my bad so causing so much delay!! Staying overnight with just the four of us isn't very cool i warn the rest that is going to be staying cause, its not going to be fun if the next day is actually a school day where you will have to start at 8 and end off at 6.

Let me continue from where i left off, nothing special to talk about on Tuesday except going out with the brotherhood members to clementi for dinner and a game of Pool. Played something like a tournament like a knockout stage, with an additional stage for the loser pool to fight it out for the remaining places for HONOUR!!! hahha... Well, seems like as though there is alot of people playing, but actually there was only 4 of us playing. That day ended Gavin being the first, me second, weishan third and ericson last. Reach home, bathe and slp!!

Starting this week onwards, all of my Wednesday's work slot will be replaced, as there is one new additional member in my workplace, and in order for him to complete his full 50hr/wk, i thought it would be easier for him to work my slot and left me with only the Saturday's slot for extra pocket money. This should mean that my Wednesday is free again, but lesser income per week already!! Since i didn't have to work on that day, went out with the brotherhood for another round of pool since the next day is a public holiday! The setting of the game set changed to a round robin phrase where everyone will verse one another and see who will top the chart!! Unfortunately for me, i ended by last with zero wins after 5 conservative rounds, and only able to get back my form after ericson left for home to prepare for a night in my house cause everyone suddenly decided to go on a PSP phree, tonning overnight at my house!

Thursday, already said that it was a public holiday, so isn't much to talk about also, except that i went to my old sec frens, and met up with most of my ex-classmate to celebrate nearby somewhere my house!

Friday, got excused from lessons to be able to help weishan settle his computer from the sponsor's area to transport over to school. had to trouble my uncle once again to help me transport stuff from one end to another end, so really thankful that he was able to remember and agree to help me out! I know he is doing it out of goodwill, but i don't think it a good idea for me to keep imposing on him with his work from work! Waited, and waited in school til i stayed overnight in school as well!!

Yawnsss.... ..... ......

I guess i shall skipped saturday and sunday for this week, getting very tired already. Nuff` said.

Not sure if my recent posting or feeling has made anyone worried or anything else, probably nothing i guess, but at least i can say that i'm feeling better and definately going to feel much stronger than ever!! Not that i have found anything to seriously motivates me, but i guess instead of finding motivation, i should stand up strong myself after a knock or fall.

I haven't been doing what i've been trying to get myself to do which is to attend lessons regularly, submitting excellent assignment, and many many more!!! The list of what i need to complete just goes on and on, and before i can even complete one, another one just come on and add on to the workload. Not that i can't handle more workload, just that i havent been feeling motivated about doing anything in the first place!!!

If you haven't been told of this, than i shall just update a little brief on the games so far.

first match against SB, though i'm still unwilling to accept the fact that we lost to them due to the referee's bias and their dirty tricks. Basically the whole match was like a fighting match instead of a ball game, and i will seriously state that its the ref's DUMB BRAIN and BIAS-NESS to the SB team that led to the fighting game since his call was never fair in the first place, worse is i realise that he and one of the girls from the team was like dating together la! WTF!!!!

second game was against SPSU on the same day, a clean and fair game but after many of my players recieved knocks from the first game, and SPSU's team was seriously just using the guy's height advantage to win the game against us, no choice, i gotta say that the average team height is totally 1.75m at least including the girls!!! During the game, i collided with RYAN, and should be glad i wasn't KO'ed after the knock as it was seriously a heavy collision!! Ryan didn't feel much, but i'm still recovering from it i guess!!!

the next day had a game with EEE, but in the end.. i think due to their morning game against SB, they didn't even turn up for the game and we had an walkover!! Our first win no matter what, but it seems that we can only hope SMA beat SB and we will beat SMA in our final game!!! With that, the more points we can gather, the better is it for for to qualify, as it really does seems to be like the case ENGLAND is facing for the EURO qualifies.

Well, got a few days of break before saturday's game, work on Friday till 1am so hopefully it doesn't take out too much of energy.... Alright i guess i gotta go slp NOW since i have WORKSHOP in school and meeting up with my group mate for assignment discussion in the morning!!!!!

Currently working as usual, and thinking back. . . Friday was a much happier day i guess? Besides the fact that lessons ended at 12, had Lan Gaming meeting at 3, dinner with chun hui & sotong at 8=D Missed a few matches of intercons supposed to scout, but wasn't much of a problem since filling up my tummy is more important. Of course with the company of them to 'talk cock, sing song & play mahjong'

Today had training in the morning, but quite a few tell me reasons that yesterday had match and was too tired, or what ever reasons they gave which didn't matter much cause ultimately means they won't be coming. Hopefully everyone can make it for the match in the morning!!! So i'm going to promote it here!!

Captain's Ball Match 1
TEAM SMIT vs TEAM SB
9AM, Monday (29 Oct 2007)
Stadium Netball Court

Well, everyone to please wake up and support us, its VERY IMPORTANT!

Hmm, before i end this, wanna share the song of the month, by The Click Five, Jenny
Available in the Jukebox!

Today isn't a very good day, neither has this week been a good week! My mind is cramped up with so many stuff that i myself also don't know how should i even go about clearing the mess in my head! Everything alway seems to go the other way when I'm just expecting to live out a simple life. Kinda sick and tired of so much political issues from everywhere. I know there is no way one can get out of politics but, i just want some free time to myself since i guess i've been busy with so many stuff even since this year started! Started off well, but currently going to a stalemate, so i'm still searching for the lost link that i'm missing currently. Don't ask me why, cause i too can't figure it out myself!!

Maybe. . . . . . It's time for me to leave
Maybe. . . . . . It's time for me to set things straight
Maybe. . . . . . It's time for a change
Maybe. . . . . . It's time i start to do something meaningful
Maybe. . . . . . It's time to Maybe. . . . . .
Maybe. . . . . .
Maybe. . . . . .

Blah, whats so wrong with me nowadays.! -.-"

********DISCLAIMER******** : Whatever you see here, remains in here! Nuff' Said. . . .
Suddenly don't know where should i start, i guess it is back to my laziness that i actually skipped most of my lessons in school today with handing up my slightly overdue assignment after resting in club for a long long while! I guess it's already over, so tomorrow i will seriously start out my working cap and no more excuses for not attending class or submitting work!!!

Guess i will talk about our first Captain Ball friendly against SMA. Let me just start off like a soccer news you find in any website!!

FIRST LOST AFTER TAKING OVER AS COACH!
written by: Ferguson

Match Details: 6pm, Basketball Court (Singapore Polytechnic)
TEAM SMIT had several injuries before the match. Terence, Xue Jia, Emma & Vice Captain Ryan Choo was ruled out of the match. Team Manager Ferguson is force to pick out from the 2nd string side due to the insufficient places allocated to the 1st team.

The first half started out with TEAM SMA winning the jump ball, and was quickly attacking the defence of TEAM SMIT. TEAM SMA was definitely a much better side in the 1st half, as they were effectively in both attacking and defending against an under performing TEAM SMIT! SMA quickly got into a 6-1 lead close to half-time where they called out time-out to reorganise their tactics to hold up their advantage close the end of the 1st half. Ferguson also had a time-out called near the end of the 1st half to remind his players about the current performances and giving them some hair-drying treatment to prevent anymore loose points!

Half time and the score between the two sides is SMA 12: 8 SMIT.

Ferguson made several changes to the team, including himself into his favourite central position. TEAM SMIT started off very well in the early periods of the 2nd half, going head-to-head against the SMA's defences. Penetrating whenever opportunities arrives, and successfully preventing them from scoring as well. The 2nd period was a much better side from TEAM SMIT, and it was until the closing period of the 2nd half, that we couldn't hold out for at least a draw in the points, giving back some loose ball and finally ended with a score 17-14.

'The name of the game is to win the group and head on to the Championship,' he said.

And Ferguson has not forgotten early exits in the previous two seasons, which is why he is determined the team should maintain their early momentum from today's friendly as they look to do better in the start of intercons starting next week!

Of course I am still confident that my team this year is going to be in the Finals, so watch out everyone! HA

Haven't got the mood to write or say anything nowadays but i thought if i don't start, maybe the blog will be too hungry to carry on, so here i am going to write a relatively short entry before i get on to bed after completing my overdue assignment.

Been wondering what has got into me, that i feel so darn tired when it comes to school work, or even attending meetings for whatever reasons. I probably am overworked or trying to have some change in my life that i just can't concentrate in whatever I'm doing nowadays, i feel so lost in this world many times and i really had to get a workout to get myself back on track or reality eh?

Nothing interesting happen during the weekend, except my Sister's 22nd birthday, Mark enlistment farewell dinner at Marina Bay and the testing of my aunt's car today afternoon since she went to Batam with her friends, and we took care of my two younger cousins by taking them out to eat nearby since the car is able to fit everyone of us!!

i GUESS things are sort of stabling as we go on each day, all the way till the end of this semester! I gotta work harder since i don't wanna drop or maintain my result already, i wanna improve and improve with only 3 more semester left!!!

GAMBATE!!!!

Before i forget everything, i guess i better start writing out some stuff first.

Nothing grand in particular, so didn't have any celebration or party held this year. Just a normal family dinner on Sunday to celebrate my birthday! Well, i'm actually quite lazy to write out the details about things, so i guess i will go on to extending my thanks to everyone that actually went the extra mile to make it some what a celebration. If i missed out anyone, den i am so sorry. . . . . .

A BIG THANK YOU TO:
B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D - for planning the dinner and the cuffs
CHUN HUI - for being the 1st to wish me the second on my 19 years of life
SHERILYN, ENQI, SHIYUN - for trying to make me feel sad about recieving a small present or a shock, and of course the actual one which is a bag. Truth to be told is that i wasn't really expecting a gift mah, cause i don't usually recieve gifts from my buddies or friends, probably cause all boys school so, yeah.. plus, i was hoping MORE=D kidding la. . . .
*Also thankful for the very nice decorated card!!
ZARSE + SUZANNE - for the 'sex' tee, simple and short=D
TRITONS - for the lovely card and the wishes recieved!
MARK, YONG HE & TC - for attending the dinner and celebration at night!'




HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEIQI & DARREN!!

I don't know what to blog this few days. So hopefully this works out!! HA!

Blog Blog, are you feeling hungry? Been a long time since i fed you with words eh?

Guess i start off with some updates on my boring week which of course started on a Monday where i went to school for lessons and head over to club to settle up some matters.

About the same things i've done on Tuesday.

Probably the only different thing i did on Wednesday was that i went to work till 11pm.

Thrusday was also probably the best day i had for the week cause i can look forward to meeting my Captain Ball Team for the very first time. Training was pretty relax cause i didn't had much in mind for the first training, but i swear the trainings are just going to be tougher and more challenging. I suppose i should have one more training per week since the intercons are just 1 month away.

Friday was Swensen's Birthday, so wishing him a HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY, hopefully he realised that becoming 18 opened up alot in his life that is legal in the LAW of Singapore. *But from what i've gone through heading to my 19th year in this world, being 21 is the best legal age in Singapore cause i can't think of anything to stop you other than certain Clubs which require an age of at least 23 which is the miniority. Well, went out immediately after school ended with about 1/2 my class to Orchard for a meal at Food Republic located at Wisma for anyone who doesn't know, before heading opposite to Lucky Plaza for a session of Pool. Celebrations ended at around 5+ since i had to return to school for meeting, and met up with my buds for a Movie Night (Resident Evil), a long chat at Macs before heading home early Saturday morning. . .

Saturday was out with SAM, zOe, Randy & Sue to get some stuff somewhere in Singapore, had lunch somewhere at the food court, and eventually waited for Adelin to come while watching some Fashion Show about Wedding Dress w/jewelleries from GoldHeart! Shortly after Ade came and meet up with us, i drove back home before heading to work at Katong. For the first time in the year, i actually met up with my buds again in the week cause they sort of met up and came over to my workplace to gather up for a drink after i finish. However, the effects on playing games while waiting for me to finish, and they didn't really like it inside the pub opposite of my shop, so we ended playing Battlefield 2 till 4am in the morning. . . and NOW for the JOKE OF THE WEEK!!!

After leaving my workplace, we decided to get something to eat and drink to chat a while since we didn't really wanted to go home yet, so we went over to 7-11 to get some stuff. I didn't want to drink beer nor cocktail so the only thing left in the alcohol compartment was Jolly Shandy.

AND when i went over to the counter to pay for the stuff, the person actually asked me for my I/C to verify my age. All that just for one can of JOLLY SHANDY?!!! LOLx, everyone laugh their ass off. . . . .

Can't think of anything to add on to this entry already, and i would hope to believe that next week will just be something better? Well, i'm thinking about _________ every time i'm awake!! It's probably just a blank for those interested people to fill if they want to...

Off to sleep and before i submit this by pressing the button, HERES........

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY TO B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D CLOWN
ESTEBAN ERICSON FUNTANAR.

Life haven't been very much inspirational that I think i could write, so probably just write some random thoughts about life currently.

What's life. . . . . . . when you're getting further and further

What's life. . . . . . . when its so near yet so far

What's life. . . . . . . when time passes me by

What's life. . . . . . . when I'm losing my confident self

Hmm, why am i even writing this when i dont even know what it means myself. I guess with effort and time well spent, i should be able to see results! If i don't even know myself well, who else will i wonder. . . First thing i will have to do is to re-adjust my screwed up bio-clock so i won't be missing 8am morning lessons which i come to believe my laziness in bed is so serious the odds of me even waking up by 7 is almost 0%. Bahh, i guess i should just head over to my bed and SHUT my eyes and SLEEP!! SNORE SNORE SNORE!!!!

HAHAHA, oh no.. i'm feeling crazy!

Can't think of anything interesting, but i guess i can do with some updates of the rest of the week after i left out! I guess its only left with Friday that had some things to write about.

SMIT held its Talentime on Friday, around 5pm at the Auditorium. This was probably the only event that i'm not involved in any possible way for the whole year of events till now. Well, i guess there had to be an event that i shouldn't be involved, so to give me some kind of rest. So, i spent most of the waiting time at club, while the rest were pretty much doing all the preparation for the event itself!

Shermian came over to club, and we (Teck Chau, Wei Jun & Wei Shan) including the two of us were probably just chatting over anything you can think of under the sun, and most of them would probably be talking about driving since TC and Shermian are taking their licence. We chatted for about an hour before we head towards FC5's 7-11 to get ice-cream, and went to the Auditorium for the event. We waited for Xue Jia at FC5, till we realised that she was heading straight there, and expecting us directly there so by the time we reached there, the event just started!

When i got in, it was already the first contestant, that was Rain & Melissa, a duet performance. It was quite a nice and lovely performance from the both of them, considering their standards, they were already very very good. However, no offence to the judges for this event, suddenly i feel so strange being inside SMIT idol, which is so similar to SIngapore Idol where the contestants gets comments based on their performance for the day. Not that this kind of judging is not good, but prehaps not the kind of style i would like to see from an event like Talentime. . .

Well, i guess the event went quite 'smootly', to a certain extent since i couldn't stay there throughout the event. maybe, i can say good job to everyone for all their efforts and time spent for this event, however maybe a much better event could have been done if most of the things were settled or done much earlier. Too many last minutes stuff were done to make the overall event so rushed!!! Since the event is already over, maybe i can see a much better organizing event team for the upcoming events!!!

Ja Ne!!

The title already said the main theme about today's entry. . . ICE CAMP 2007! Currently stuck at work and wonder why there isn't much customer today which is very unusual, probably during the O's, N's and PSLE timing, so everyone is either busy studying or parents doesnt allow them to come out as often.

since i got the time, might as well put it to good use by writing an entry before i forget everything else~! I've already talk about Prep camp and most of the job allocation so i will just skip and go straight to the main camp itself. . .

The night before the actual camp, everyone went off to sleep very very late, due to time delay sessions by the Prep Camp Comm, and some others. Most of the time wasting could have be avoided and given probably the Fls sufficient rest to handle the campers coming in the very morning. . . and i hope most of you could already guess it, the Fls didn't have much rest before they have to wake up, wash up, eat breakfast and get ready to recieve the campers at FC5 foyer by 10am!!! If i didn't remember wrongly, i think prep camp officially break out at 4-5am in the morning, with the fact they still have to head towards to T22 from SAC to sleep.

Without breakfast for campers and with quite alot of Milo left since most of the Camp Comm people worked their ass off to finish up all the gifts for the campers, and preparation of materials for nightwalk since there wasn't much time given to the GPs to create their props for night walk. So in the morning, i think i slept till 10, and did some washing up with Peng Yu and waited for the rest of the campers to arrived before the camp officially starts!

The Fls started with whoever that came earlier with some mini icebreaking sessions, and the food team joined in some of the groups, since there wasn't any duty available or needed of us to do. After a long while, the campers regrouped according to their allocated groupings and Fls and had another session of ice breaking.

After that was the introduction of the Camp Comm, or rather the OCs, planners of the camp, called by their greek Gods name and their weapon! However, probably after that session, none of us actually used the greek name to call each other. I would believe that everyone just started to call back each other by their actual names, and so why the theme of this greek mythology inside the camp when nothing from the camp is around even near it. Even the food area that was supposed to be something else, became everyone head towards FC2, FC5 or T15.

Rah! I was just wondering should i even continue writing, since i suddenly got lazy. . . if anyone wanna know more about the camp, i think just find me in school, msn or can even just give me a call and i will explain in full details about the camp!

Over & Out!!!!

Had about two days of break after LTC, and i had to prepare myself for another 6 days of camp in school. I joined the OC team of Ionic Chain Evolution(ICE) Camp, and we were supposed to meet in school in the afternoon but i went after having dinner with my family since there wasn't much for the food team to do during Prep Camp!

When i reached, everyone was busy trying to finish their weapons which in the end was only used for about 30s during the introduction of the camp committee on the actual day itself. Well, since i didn't even started on my weapon, i took the time to get things started and just created some barrel-like weapon since my God name was Dionysus, God of Wine which initially was quite fitting for me since i was part of the food team. After i painted and waited for it to dry, most of us practically just chit chat, talking about anything in the world since there was still some who haven't even reach!

It was only until past 1 in the morning that we started to move out of SAA and started the first night walk route. This year they had ideas of doing two routes instead of the usual one, so we had to walk from FC2 - FC6 and from FC6 -FC2. Some of the routes used were quite reduntant, but there isn't much of a choice since there is two routes to be drawn out, and there isn't much of a space left the school can offer, so no choice if that pathways slowly gives confidences to the campers later on, and making this nightwalk a failure. There is always a risk in this, but there isn't much of a choice either!

Once we reached back to FC2, they asked for the prep camp committee to stay back and discuss about the routes, and since I wasn't involved in the team and was feeling tired, i head back to SAA and slept.

Next morning, the OCs woke up by 10 and gathered at FC5 foyer to meet up with the FLs and GPs to officially start off the two days Prep Camp. Wasn't really involved in the Prep Camp, so basically the FLs become the people to test out the games for the camp, while the GPs will check and see if the games have any problems or require any changes for the actual camp. The FLs had to go through the Night walk route, so I helped out in the Nightwalk preparation. Based on my experience on Nightwalk, the materials they gave us to seal out as much lights along with the people given to assist me in covering up, i would say that many many things could have been better and much more improvements could also have been done for the prep!

As usual, the Fls had to walk the route alone, but due to many problems faced on either routes, the walk started at about 2am and ended about 2 hours later, and I had to bring my team to clear up all the mess before heading back to sleep for the night, or morning instead!!

The second day of Prep, was mainly on the activities held in Sentosa which i didn't go since there was nothing much that interest me, so i stayed back in school and slack around till all the GPs come back to have their dinner, since the food team has decided to do them a favour by buying them dinner back during Prep Camp, which of course wasn't taken from the budget and had to collect from them to the food! The rest of the time in the night was spent doing some performance from the GP, Fls and the partnership of the Fls. After everything was done, and quite alot of time wasting moments, everyone went to sleep at 4-5am the eve before the start of the actual camp!

Suddenly lazy to continue writing, so i will start on the actual camp stuff tomorrow or when i have the feeling too.

Saddening!............................

`hmm, sorry for not blogging for the past 2 weeks of holidays! Just got back from ICE and is currently working and waiting for my work to end at 1am. . .

****WARNING: THIS IS GOING TO BE LONGGGGGGGG POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!****

Let's start with LTC since its the something that came first!!

OCs had to come back to school on Sunday to prepare for P.Ubin the next day! There wasn't much to be done except buying of stuff, briefing of each games and preparing of materials to be brought over! After all of that, everyone went out for a simple dinner and having our final nice warm shower before heading to sleep!!

Woke up at around 7am, to wash up and get changed ready for the start of the camp! Campers were told to report in by 8am, so Gavin and I went up to T19 Foyer to wait for them to arrive! The OCs had some guessing games on how many will be late in the morning, and lazy to remember but i won't forget Bin's cause he said "ALL WILL BE LATE!" We were so scared in the morning that Bin's answer will be accurate for the first time since he always like to bet on the hardest bet to win!

Well, at about 8am sharp, there was about more than a third of the campers so we waited for about 1/2 of them to arrive before we start off this gloomy rainy morning getting them to hold in pumping position while waiting for the rest to come! While majority of them came about 15 minutes late, there is always just one exceptionally late camper due to whatever reasons one person can come out with. So in the end, everyone waited for about 45 mins in that position while waiting for him to arrive!

After all that morning exercise they had, we had a simple and basic bag check before they set off by public bus and head towards Changi Jetty! While the campers went there by bus, I got my uncle to bring all the logistics and some helpers by lorry so we reached there much earlier than them. When we reached, we met up with Frendy's group there as they went there early in the morning to collect the firewoods and kerosene!

Since we reached earlier, we went ahead for lunch while waiting for the campers to arrive there! We waited outside the jetty for about another hour before the campers arrived to have their lunch before finally heading over to P.Ubin! When we arrived there, while the freshies began setting up their own tents, most of the seniors were busy setting up the HQ.

Next was splitting of the groups before they start off their Mass Activity of the Day (M.A.D) which was the Station hunt where the groups were supposed to be walking around the Ubin to search for the different hut locations and memorizing the MRT stations names in order! The activity was pretty much just walking around and around, memorizing the station names in order and heading back to HQ.
The winning group members were: Sherilyn.Iswan.Junjie.BaoLiang

Once all the campers arrived back to HQ, they ate dinner there before having a mini campsong singing session after meal. After that, they had a night activity where they were to protect one VIP from their group from any water bomb while trying to complete the task given to them. Ultimately the activity was supposed to make them wet and enjoy the night, but it seems that the objective of making them all wet failed as i could most of them very dry even after two rounds!

End of the day's activity and so the campers had to bring their belongings and tents and head towards a campsite where they will have their rest there!

I went with Gavin, Adelin & Mark to Mamam campsite for 3 losing groups, while Shawn, Yong Hui & Darren brought the winning group to Nordin campsite. Over on my side, everyone was still pretty much energetic after all whole day of activities probably cause the weather was so cooling after the morning rain and maybe the activities weren't even tiring as we expected them to be? Everyone took about 1 freaking hour before they could settle down and sleep quietly. . .

And so they slept. . . ZzZzZZzzZZZzzz. . . .

ZzZzZZzzZZZzzz. . . . . And we woke them up at around 4.30am, and getting them to pack up and get ready to move back to campsite. I was shocked to hear that the winning group actually woke up at 3 in the morning. Was just wondering if Adelin didn't stop me from waking them earlier. . .

Well, not sure if the camp's mood wasn't serious enough for them, they sure took their bloody own sweet time in packing up so we had to give them an early morning exercise to start off the day. Our side were lucky and had Adelin to thank for, so we only made them do about 40 minutes of 'half of the half squats' when we told them they only did 27 minutes.

Shawn's side was supposed to come over and meet up with us since they woke up even earlier, they had some obstacles to face and gave up coming over as they met up with some of the fiercest dog that even Shawn couldn't get himself to make the rest walk pass, so they had to wait at one of the huts nearby while waiting for help to come from NEA. Our side also arrived there shortly after they left, so by then the dogs has already been kept inside the houses so we walked back to HQ pretty easily. Once they arrived there, after putting down their stuff at HQ, they left for morning PT while i head over to HQ for a short nap to recover some energy for today!

After they finished their morning PT, we made some changes to the groups and had breakfast before having some light activities. Once they've done that, than moving on to the MAD of the day which is Morse Code! Basically, they had to move in their groups, searching for the clues and location given to them, including some bonus like an coconut proudly sponsored by ME, plus some special requests from the helpers following them and heading back to HQ to complete a simple task given to them!
The winning group were: Sherilyn.Iswan.Junjie.BaoLiang.Xanthus

When they arrived, its was for once ahead of schedule so, I had to come out with something for them to do while waiting for the food to come. So i let them have some bonding session over at the basketball court, and when Gavin returned with the food, i think he was shocked to see FIVE casulties and the rest probably already tired out after that activity. So in the end, they had their dinner before having another mini session of campsong singing before getting ready for Night walk at P.Ubin!!

Almost everyone walked alone in this nightwalk which have absolutely no scare point. So after everyone arrived safely at the ending point, they head back towards starting point where they will part again to their campsites since the winning group was the same today.

I head back to HQ for a night's rest while i think they were lucky to have about 5-6 hours to rest which was too much as we agreed on 3 per day! Since they already let them sleep cause i only found out in the morning, the camp still have to go on, so they should have more than enough energy to survive the day itselves.

As usual, once they reached HQ from the campsite, they had their morning PT which is considered quite crazy cause they did 19 times up and down the slope before having some memory game which in the end, they were allowed to walk throughout the game since they were pretty much drained out!

Next they had breakfast to gain back some energy before they stayed at HQ to do some mini activities like survivor of egg, cracking of the coconut, minesweeper and my only game in charge, Human Checkers!

After that, they were told to move around near the HQ to look for materials to maintain the fire for the night. Materials like dried leaves, dead logs, sticks, etc. Once they are done with that, majority of us went up the hut for some auction of materials for their dinner! Using their points they earn throughtout the day!

Most of the auction items were quite repeatitive, due to the fact some of the stuff were missing at the point of time, and we didn't have much variety to talk about in the first place!~ Once they were done with their food item, everyone started heading back to HQ to start off their outdoor survival cooking where they have to use their materials collected to sustain the fire with the limited amout of solid fuel they collected. Some of the groups didn't need much help from us, except certain groups which had countless help from us to sustain their fire to at least ensure everyone cooked their meal and gaining back some energy for the main event later on in the night.

Next up, we had the most fun activity which was the campfire where everyone presented their skits and started to sing campsongs while serving dessert to every camper to enjoy before the final event that they would never realise it in their wildest imagination! While everyone started to think that the camp is almost over and started to relax and fully enjoy and relax, the 'worst' is yet to happen!

Once we officially end the campfire, the campers had to keep their tents and pack their bags, standing in one straight line! They had at least 10 events prepared for them, which i think only a few was used cause i think most of them wont be able to make it. Starting off, they had to pack and unpack their bags!!!

And so they started, our highest timing set last year was 10s to unpack and 18s to do both completed! It seems quite impossible to achieve, but if u really need physical evidences, come find me and i will show it to you? lol... Alright, they didn't managed to attain the time we hit last year, but at last they tried their best. Just a brief run through about the exercise... We asked for a time to unpack their bags, and the first time given was 2 1/2 minutes which was too much time given, but we still gave them anyways. And to prove that the time was more than enough to unpack their bags, i saw Dehui unpacking out of his ziplock bag, and still got the time to slowly place his clothes nicely infront of his bag. That was quite long 2 1/2 minutes was, and about the same time was given to pack up their bags and using the same example, Dehui can still slowly put back his stuff to the ziplock bag and place it nicely in his bag.

Well, lazy to explain entirely, so while they barely managed to hit 30s to unpack their bags, and 1min 30s to pack their bags, a serious incident happened for the first time in camp! Dehui suddenly went down, and was in some kind of shock status, so while our medic couldn't think of a better way to cure him there, we decided to call for external help while doing some basic medical treatment for him.

They had quite a bit of rest while Dehui was brought back to mainland to the nearest hospital for treatment, but by the time Dehui left HQ, he was already recovering back to his normal self. But to play safe, he was brought back to mainland!

While Dehui was brought back, the rest carried on clearing their punishment, and as Gavin and Shawn gradually increased the seriousness of the punishment, most of them was cleared quite easily but it doesn't seem that they can handle anymore physically! Enough of that, since there wasn't much to comment about, except they could even think of singing National Athemn, Elmo's Song during their punishment as their motivation which it took us quite a while to even accept it cause they would rather do that than cheer each other up!

Casultaties were: MeiQi, Han Jie, Eliza, EnQi
Even though they had to retreat from the rest of the group, they did well in general! Good job!

The rest had to continue till they cleared their punishment, and after that, we moved on towards the POP site which was at one end of P.Ubin. Once they reached there, they gave their comments and recieved a reward for completing this camp! Congratulation, and hopefully everyone learn one or two things to bring back and improve themselves!

Nothing much after that, cause i think we didn't grill them enough as most of the seniors were pretty much tired out, while the campers are still left with some energy!! Overall, everyone gave their best, but definately much more improvement can be made!!!!

Alright i think i will end here with some photos, will update tomorrow!

MIT Strongest Men at Ubin


Pork Chop?


Sherilyn, Iswan, BaoLiang and Jun Jie!

Only Scandal found in LTC, guess urself!

*resized wrongly, lazy to reupload! heh

BAKA! I've been spending most of my time watching Naruto till i can confidently say that i know alot that i really can't wait to start watching Shippuuden, but since its only up till epsiode 27, i've spent most of the time watching the rest of the fillers despite the fact that everyone telling me to jump straight to the main story instead of wasting time watching fillers.

Well, there isn't much of a rush to jump straight to the main story since it has only shown up till 27, might as well spend the time available during work to watch the fillers. But then, as the story goes on, the fillers are really getting worse, as in its simply nothing worth watching. So i've already finish watching the first 5 episode of Shippuuden, and would want to take it easy before i really watch finish everything. . .

I guess since most of the Brotherhood peeps have gone to SAA LTC cruise trip, and i have much stuff on my head to complete, including attending my graduation for my flying course that i took earlier this year. Not sure why they suddenly want to have a graduation for us since we didn't actually complete the whole course due to many many reasons, i will of course attending it and hope to find more clues on my career prospect at the same time! SMIT LTC is also due next week, and not sure whether many are roaring to go, i'm definately waiting for the day to come as i personally believe its a camp not to be missed. Physically & mentally challenging i would say, but if you were to phrase it as torture, i think our camp is probably the lousiest torture camp in standards. HA....

alright, enough of my crappyness, and time to get back to work.... Hope to see everyone soon!!!

Ja Ne!!!~~

hmm, things are sure getting very boring either resting at home, or just wandering around the streets. Ha.. i guess this is just one of the boring part of having holidays during poly life, but things should get more interesting i hope!!

other than the chalet on the first three days of the chalet, i went to work and spent the rest of the two days resting mostly at home, not doing anything very interesting to talk about. Next week should be abit more getting myself busier with more work since i wont be free for the next two weeks after that as i would have to handle two camps in that time span which will be quite crazy for me to even think about heading to work since both camps are going to be tiring no matter what job duties i am doing for either camp!

things sure are getting more different from since the start of my second year of my poly year and hopefully things can only get better and more fun as time passes along. . . Not sure if anyone can understand the feeling i have not, so... this disappointment which i just can't get rid of is within me, come to think of it, it looks like the sealed fox demon in Naruto!

GOSH. . . i think i've gone crazy watching too much of naruto, especially since i'm already at the fillers of the show and still waiting for someone to hand me up till the latest set of the second seasion so i can start converting and watch it on my PSP!!

alright alright, seems this will be enough... screw my human clock, its overturned and unable to adjust! HA

Now currently working after 3 days at Pasir Ris. It was actually planned to be an MITO event for ALL MIT club members to sit down and enjoy the BBQ and chit chat overnight as i thought it would be good timing since everyone has just either ended exams or at least just began their holiday.

However, things didn't turn out to be what as expected and it sort of became a different event altogether. Looooong Story to be said out, but yeah.. at least those who went should have enjoyed themselves by learning something new or doing some fun there though it can get abit boring at times when people are sound asleep! lolx. . .

No matter what, i would like to extend my thanks to all that at least made the effort to come.

Don't feel like writing anything for the moment.. will upload soon enough....

Disappointment follows and goes in a cycle!
Anger comes within a word. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Haven't been bringing my camera out to take some photos, so bear with me for yet another wordy entry!

Time passes like a flash, that even the two weeks of examination is coming to a close. But it also meant that my final assignment is closing to the due date set by my teacher. Worse thing is I'm required to do at least a 90s animation using flash, but i think i have only completed up till 10s with only one day more to go!

Days has been the same throughout the whole of the examination week, since i don't have any exams to headache about, I have been heading to my second home, SAC 111 planning for the upcoming LTC. Though most of the stuff are pretty much completed, there is still some loose knots to be tied up, which should be done latest by this Friday since by then i should or will be handing up my assingment and will be enjoying my holidays from than on.

Next, for all those who view my blog, there is going to be a MITO held on the 27th AUGUST. This is an OFFICIAL inviation to ALL SMIT CLUB members ranging from year 1 - all the old birds that exist in the SMIT club history.Meeting time is 2pm at the Pasir Ris Control Station, where there will definately be some seniors waiting to bring you'll to the designation! It will only be costing you $8/pax.

As there will be board games, netball, soccer and of course a BBQ session in the evening for everyone to enjoy & chit chat with everyone since its after the exam period!! Everyone will be entitled a stay in the chalet for a night so start telling ALL your friends and get them DOWN on the 27th!

Any enquiries can always call me at 97348588, or msn @ whitehowling@hotmail.com
