ATC08 10 - 12June
--------------------
Day 1:
~ Gathered in SALT Center at 12:30
~ Aren't the Sec 2s supposed to go earlier?
~ Took bus to Changi Jetty
~ Handed in valuables and Ez-Link card at the jetty
~ Stoned long while then get onto boat...
~ Reached Ubin after long boat ride... Thought I saw a A380 fly over...
~ Icebreakers was very short... Only intro... But somehow one of the last groups to leave...
~ Decided on group name "Alladin" too... Disney? aww comon the CI's very "creative" ar...
~ Treasure hunt relatively boring... no treasure... no hunt...
~ Lagged too much... One of the last groups...
~ Couldn't find Belatok Hut... Haha I looked at the map and said its just round the corner...
~ Our group lag so much that we skipped a few stations and went direct to campsite
~ Camp opening address - Skip...
~ Tent pitching sucks... Girls do so fast...
~ Dinner was ok... I cooked 2 pack maggie with 1/4 solid fuel and 1 box of matchsticks...
~ Brought 8 boxes in total... and the maggie was well cooked...
~ Mock campfire is ok... most cheers I don't know... Ping Yi was the chosen one... did I Ask My Love with Si En... He seemed dam sian afterwards...
~ Free time was really free time... no one wanted to discuss about skit... they just tao Jia Yuin... I also de non-creative type lar... also cannot help to think...
~ Then rain... or rather strong wind first... My tent fell but I told Isaac its good because our bags surely wont be wet cos the CIs brought it in...
~ Another tent somewhere behind also fell but bags still inside... Good Luck Lor...
~ Guys slept at the dorms... I don't have poncho so got slightly wet...
~ Dorms not bad leh... hardwood floor... only slightly dusty and wet... and a street light shining at your face which cannot be turned off... so still relatively good lar...
~ CIs KP us about girls sleeping in some shitty room... dunno lar can't compare de mah... whole camp is shitty...

Day 2:
~ PT reminded me of Friday trainings back in school... anyway ABC foyer and DEF canteen
~ Breakfast... Totally dry rations... Isaac tried to eat raw maggie mee... I koped 10 packets of Pokari Sweat... The girls don't like it? I put all 10 into 1.5L bottle... drank abit and... wanted to puke... 10 packets meant for 2L... Then Ping Yi go say drink le get diabetes... nvm...
~ Lo and Behold... Rain... Shelter building demoted to using satay sticks...
~ Lead Designer: Chen Qin Yang
~ The girls keep on stare at me and say I got another design... I like stun... Well I did have one but since already got design then use lar... Don't despise him mah...
~ Then we started building... Since the structure very little components I took some sticks and play with them lor... I made some sort of ladder thing with clove hitches... Thought the ground sheet can be wound through it to make a nice roof... But the girls misintepreted it and made it the door... >_>||
~ After de small shelter building was IRC... Luckily the rain stopped... IRC briefing super long...
~ Finally actual thing started... I was slacking down on the ground with Ping Yi and didn't hear the last call for group A people... Then Kenneth was going "Eh Chunqi you scared ar?"... walao... >_>||
~ Finally my turn... I took the so called "harder" one... actually I think mine is overall easier... cos all the 3 parts medium difficulty... The other one is like first 2 part super easy and the last part super hard... Jia Yuin also agrees... But I think she want excuse cos she fell lar haha...
~ Forgot lunch first or firestarting...
~ Next was lunch...
~ I ate cans only... din bother to cook... solid fuel low anyway...
~ Found out that 2 solid fuels burns faster than 1/4 piece...
~ Firestarting was fun... I brought 3 boxes of matchsticks along...
~ Woah the instructor brought along this big fire extinguisher... We are not THAT pro mah...
~ We were told to collect things needed to start a fire... leaves... twigs and stuff... on the way also went by mozzie den.
~ Got there liao then started to light fire... We were broken into 3 groups... I stick to my school de people... mostly tentmates because they know I brought matchsticks... Then girls also
evenly split... two per group... Other 4 went to the other 2 groups so we got Jia Yuin lor...
~ Starting fire on ground was harder than I thought... no stove to contain the fire... somemore the ground was wet... fire start liao then got put out by evaporating water...
~ 3 matchsticks very fast de... So I switched out my box lor...
~ My minigroup only group that didn't beg for matchsticks... Jia Yuin very anti leh... keep say the instructors know liao... But we were laughing like mad lar so abit de obvious also...
~ I very kind mah went to put some matchsticks in a leaf and said "I very kind, give you some leaves"... haha they understand what I mean... but still no one got fire to go...
~ In the end the instructor cannot stand liao go confiscate my match box... Wah I very pro hiding leh... she ask me pull out my pocket but I still hid another 2 boxes inside...
~ We cheat so no marshmallows for us... but Jia Yuin say nevermind... what nevermind I luv marshmallows leh...
~ After fire starting was JETTY JUMP... Woah can't wait man...
~ Reach there liao wear life jacks... The guy there very wierd... ask girls put on acks first then say boys go first... >_>||
~ Luckily we got high tide if not 1m jump can do in swimming pool...
~ Walao... I swimmer have to wait awhile for the non-swimmers go first...
~ So finally my turn le... looking down abit scary but I purposely make my eyes out of focus... then the water seem to be at my feet only... its works lol... i also slightly scared of heights...
~ So all the "whats your name stuff" over liao i just took the plunge... woah the free fall very shiok... I hit the water then my track pants puff up and I floated up upside down... I still abit stun then the instructor suddenly shout "you're bleeding"... I stun even more then look down see where got bleed... then he say "your nose"... i was like... >_>|||
~ Walao nose bleed only need call the RESCUE BOAT?!?! I feel dam embarrassed leh...
~ Who cares man... Went back to watch the rest jump... Reach the jetty liao then Jia Yuin in the water and got one on the plank... The girls dam scared lar... But nvm since they are girls...
~ Walao all 5 who never jump are boys leh... so diu1 lian3.... Yong Quan in the end got jump GJ!
~ After Jetty Jump went to bathe... woah never felt so good to bathe...
~ Next was shelter building... I carried the muddy pegs... very akward to carry as i dint want to dirty myself cos just bathe...
~ Overall got alot of people stoning around lar... Too bad for them they dun move then become mozzie food... All the boys also dint seem to know the design cept de designer himself... Finish le at least the structure can stand lar...
~ Dinner... same thing cans... Skip...
~ Campfire... we chosen as cheerleaders... walao... i only know 6 cheers... Jia Yuin say I pair with Si En later cos she pro at cheers... even more embarrassed mah... she know the cheers and actions while I stone there...
~ Our skit also last minute think up one... or rather the girls think of characters and boys do storyline... Theorecitally the skit not bad lar as Zhi Ming said... but somehow the acting part sucked... Luckily the CIs never give us cold shoulder...
~ Went to sleep with powder bath... saw some girls sleep in foyer... Ping Ting scared of cats... >_>||... They got infestation of ants... i got 3 theories... 1) perfume... 2) Smuggle food? 3) diabetic?!?! haha jk...

~ Personally think our group got the most fun and slack job...
~ Council Ring cleanup done within 10mins... trash bag not even 1/4 full...
~ Next we clean up the foyer... we got onto hands and knees and use rag to wipe... I dint bring rag so Jia Yuin ask her squadmate to gimme half... The rag very easy to tear dunno why...
~ So use rag to sort of mop the place lor...
~ One of the pail convoys never returned... those guys from queensway ar....
~ Isaac trying to be funny... we promised not to step on the cleaned parts and he went to trap Jia Yuin... he clean a whole circle around her so she cannot come out... he did that to other girls also and almost to me... luckily i smart...
~ Finally finish foyer after half hour... went onto the canteen... those cleaning mess tins and stove made a mess at the bottom of the sink... took a pail and flush the whole place lor... then >_>||| the ground slants away from the sink and the water doesn't go down the drain... had to use shoe with zhen wei to sweep water in... then zhen wei left halfway and left me and Jia Yuin... Where were the rest of group A ar... <_< >_>
