23.06.04, Wednesday ~ Hyped factor: 5/10
arghz. early morning read something so maddening. but hey, not many noe my
style of working. ya. perhaps shld gif some marks so easier to send a report.
well back to wat i'm up to lately. oh forgot to mention abt 12 june evac gold
accred. thot it was going to be tough but hey it was fun. ambulance drill...
making of improvised stretchers and moving across obstacles. during the
making of improvised stretchers, my partner was lugan. lol. so fun. lucky nvr get
lower than my cadet. phew. but pretty happy wif my score of 84.15 :]
next back to NDC from 18-20.
18.06.04, friday
Well cadets were late for camp... then instructors were rushed to ops rm so didnt
see what went on. starting as quite chaotic, especially the part 'no grounding of
cadets before lunch', then 'only DI can scold, the rest try and cut down' so even
maintain discipline is kinda hard.
today was a bz day for me. in charge of so many stuff... but nevertheless enjoyed
it la cos its all my fields of interest. day 1 had campcraft for 3 hrs, then rck
lecture an hr. then still got outdoor cooking for 2.5 hrs. schedule followed
quite tightly till night trek. it was real fun. the grp i in charge of finished
first and only one to complete. but hey some instructors didnt believe. thot me
and miao ling gif them hints. yes the grp want to win but they dun resort to
asking for hints from us k! dont underestimate the cadets.
19.06.04, saturday
2nd day i was the DI (duty instructor). after a hectic day, i woke up at 4.30am
went to bathe in super cold water. then wake up the rest. had flag raising. wei
shan was wif me also. so funny. [u noe why right? lol] Day 2 was crazy. going ECP
at 0630. then got campfire in the evening. a lot of unhappiness but later resolved.
before campfire, andy sir came and had a gd talk... then campfire prep was so
messy. I got a Day IC. erm dun wanna comment, the instructors shld noe. cant
scream at them before the campfire cos 'their morale is high'. so everything haf
to be in talking terms. so when i had to rush them, i told them to hurry up for
dunno so many times, but still i was told to hurry them.
but in the end managed to release my wrath on them. so angry... the whole day as DI
wah... for campfire had to help set up. set up bbq pit also. cook for instructors
who said they were hungry... in the end left only a few eating. the rest left there
nvr washed... understand how miao ling feels. i cook. we eat. i clean up. great :]
rely too much on the term IWC i think.
RCK accred haiz. disappointing. wanted to find out how to improve the paper and
the lesson so it will be more efficient. but hey following strictly to the time
was more impt. muz lights out at 2330. so muz end at 2300. Juz feel rather suppressed,
i noe wat i am doing. in the end i finished it at 2307. then in the end i was
told to tell them lights out at 0000 so they can study if they want. erm. at the
back giving me that 'wat are u doing? hurry up.' look for the 7 mins? haiz.
20.06.04, Sunday
yup last day doing evac was fun. realised they nid lots of polishing up. but best
part i think was when my 2 punggol cadets nominated for best campers together wif
the other 3. and they spoke up a lot during debrief. i so happy cadets can speak
up which is so hard to get nowadays.
after that went to bedok mac to eat. had so much laughter wif ys, eusoff,
wei shan, yuhui and shu hui [mini-me] yeah. left at 2130. reach home taking
the freezing bus 87.
21.06.04, Monday
slack.
22.06.04, Tuesday
yeah delta grp outing... so fun. was kinda late cos went to support indra's ISD
exhibition at bishan CC. ya he such a gd booth coordinator. explaining all
the stuff. got a left sore eye. did the usual 'OMG' stunt. took off the left
contacts. so i basically see things wif one eye. around the way in 80 days was
nice. pleasantly amusing not the super funny type. then went to TKGS campfire.
diamonds in the rough seems like the theme for yr 2001. was rather short. but
had a great time. chat up wif royce ya, knew him better. :]
Gee... so long nvr step into HQ. i miss the people.
(lol not angie, shannen. i mean annie and the aunties. haha) and my cup!

Well now abt the second camp... Camp Etoile... stars in french. yup. its actually
a sec one freshman camp... but i was pretty amazed by my punggol cadets.. when
they were late, they asked for permission to fall in... man, i feel gd abt being a VI.
despite some pple say tt i didnt train my new sec 3s hard enuff. to rub salt to wound,
they said, their sec 1s are better than my sec 3. i not the kind to bear grudges but
i believe they had to take back some words after they seen my 2 sec 3s performed
in ULP. juz imagine u send 2 sec 1s to ULP... having such performances, i'm very proud
of them... so wat they lack basic knowledge of FD, evac, FA and stuff. they are keen
in learning, shows leadership, a gd team player and most importantly, they speak up
and they haf initiative. tts wat i hate... comparing schs... for wat? to show how gd
u are as a VI?
anyway, lets bring down my blood pressure and tok abt the camp. the sec 1s really
amazed me... their level of urgency was thumbs up. and they are enthu... and i feel
that they are going to be great unit leaders next time... i wasnt tt gd when i was
sec 1... and some of them, their evac skills.. wow...
i muz also comment on the instructors... we juz break camp for ULP, went home
packed our stuff and had a gd night sleep, then next morning another camp. But we
had very gd cadet helpers who actually volunteered... seriously w/o them, the camp
wouldnt be so smooth. the instructors also broke their utmost limits. Most imptly,
i feel that the sec 1s had grown up. in terms of maturity and leadership. happy to
say we met our objectives. i believe our effort will pay off in a few years time
when they take over the units. :)

ok finally get to blog after more so so long... IWC chairman keeps track on
my blog progress so muz write something. lol. i juz came back from 2 camps
and 1 counting. i look at the date and find myself less than 2 weeks to
study for my midyr. haiz.
well. lets go way back to my memorable ULP (unit leader prog) camp. I looked
forward to this for a very long time. firstly it was my first time being a
group mentor. but hey i think all the grp mentors did a very good job. i am
very honoured to get such a challenging group. lol. well i seen them improving
after the first AOP. i got many late nights or rather mornings cos i slept like
4 am the week before camp. But hey it was all worth it. At least i'm proud to
say my grp shows the most improvement. But it really feels gd when they address
u sir and look up to you. I can swear i almost break down when the camp ended.
Seeing each grp how grateful they are to their mentors and how they expressed
their gratitude really a heart warming scene. well many seniors will say u wont
feel this if u experience it a few more years. well, we shall see... What hurts
most actually when u are grading them... had to be impartial... i still amazed
at myself.
But i fell sick at day 2 after the pulau ubin rescue mission. Muz be my throat
infection recurring... cos i supposed to finish my medication. but the week before
the camp, i was caught up wif meetings and stuff, forgot to eat. lol. i was
38.4 when i took my temperature... tt time i was die die i also dun wanna go home.
Not tt i was selfish to pass the fever to other pple but i really cant bear to
leave the camp and more because of my group. I know they faced lots of prob during
the planning part, i hope i can give them support for the execution part. I knew
my effort paid off when i sat down talking to them during the campfire. Seeing
the campfire they spent so much time and teamwork to build burn so smoothly. i'm
very proud of them for coming so far... Especially when they came back from ECP,
tired and still cheering... they actually wished me 'get well soon, sir' ALOUD.
oh tt few words melted my heart and i sweared tt was the last time i took panadols.
cos after coming back from pulau ubin, every four hours i had to take pills.
In the camp i was quite happy wif my performance, especially i did something extra
lol. that is to teach the link teachers basic campcraft after knowing some teachers
were tough nuts to crack. But everything went very well... we had a very interactive
session and i was able to deliver my first OA lesson. But hey my real wish is to be
able to deliver a lesson during ULP, to teachers... many things i cannot do because
of my rank... sometimes i think back.. mmm... missing two batches of ACOC... though
i made lots of friends now... but it can get restrictive... and UG goes by rank. so
at times cant help but feel a little old but doing the same thing... well in the
meantime i shall explore more things and make myself more flexible and adaptable.
learn more stuff, they sure come in handy... shall explore more ways to set up
campfire... hopefully to be all rounder. :)
but i pretty proud of myself to fight and go on despite i was sick. gosh, still
rem i had fever and sore throat... and the first breakfast was french toast...i
believe all is in the mind. if your will power is strong, u can pull thru no matter
how sick u are. Muz thank a lot of pple for showing care and concern... especially
IWC chairperson... lol. We seek to serve *salute* but sad leh, didnt get to be DI...
haiz... dunno when will be the next time...
Well for ULP camp, shall end my comments here... gosh, i miss my grp... lol.

I believe
Have you ever you ever reached a rainbow's end
And did you find your pot of gold
Ever catch a shooting star
Tell me how high did you soar
Ever felt like you were dreaming
Just to find that you're awake
Cause the magic that surrounds you
Will lift you up and guide you on your way
I can see it in the stars across the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
See I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally yeah
I believe in the impossible
If I reach deep within my heart
Overcome any obstacle
Won't let this dream fall apart
See I strive to be the very best
Shine my light for all to see
Cause anything is possible
When you believe yeah
I can see it in the stars up in the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally I believe
Yes I believe

Raindrops Will Fall
There's a time 4 every star 2 shine
And a place 4 every dream 2 see the light
When u have everything
U don't need another reason 2b something
Hold on, and look to your faith
Can't let nobody, nobody get in your way
Chorus
I walked thru the fire
Fought thru the ragin storm
Til I found the peace
That's inside of me
I've got 2 b strong
I stand 4 my dreams
I was made 4 this moment
Take me as I am
Or nothin at all
I'll keep holdin on
Raindrops will fall
Hold on and look to your faith
Don't let nobody, nobody get in your way
Chorus
I was taught not 2 run away
Cuz raindrops will always fall on your face
When it seems like all hope is gone
Gotta get thru the storm
B4 you can see the dawn
This is all I am
This is all I know
And I won't never ever let go
No I won't let go
