CHS Sec 1 Registration

Yeps. Yesterday was CHS's Sec 1 Registration. Highlights include smelly burgers, the NCC Air flyer issue and desperate young men rushing to the pri sch side to see to-be Whitley students....

Arrived in sch at 7 in the morning. We were split into groups and assigned our respective duties. Once again, i am the usher, posted at the front porch... Fellow grpmates include Jacob, Javince Xiang Kai n the rest i dunno....lols.

Breakfast was burgers, smelly burgers, serious. My first 1 wasn't dat bad, de second was inedible. As we were doing our usher duty, we gave out NCC air flyers, however we got caught by Hippo... dang the zookeeper shld have kept the hippo in hand, GO BACK TO THE ZOO!!!

At around 10+, Aloysius came down and call ppl go pri sch if dey wan see..ermm...to-be Whitley students, all rushed off, leaving me and xiang kai and some NCC air ppl in uniform dere. No more parents streaming in, so sat down and played handphone games... :D .

Went to the canteen for 2nd duty. Checkpoint duty. Job scope includes checking of items parents bought. Me and Jacob didn't get much 'customers', as a whole grp of NCC Air ppl crowded around us, whole group playing handphone games...

The flyers dat the NCOs given out to the Part Bs were all returned in more or less the same quantity... thanks to dem restocking every other minute...

1200 hours. Left school with the NCOs for lunch. Went to Fairprice first to buy drinks before heading down to the coffee shop to have lunch..

1300 hours. The whole group of us stormed into the Funland Arcade. Staff Sp and i made an amazing discovery, initial d dere costs 50 cents... amazing. The whole group of us played daytona to the maxx, was full of laughter and joy and happiness....lots of flipping....we shud stick to bicycles...

Movieeeeeee.....

Just came home from GV Bishan. Watched National Treasure : Book Of Secrets with Sgt Major Warren lao ba, elephant and her fren.

Actually we wanted to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks, but....FULL HOUSE. So Sgt Major Warren lao ba and I decided to choose de next earliest movie, National Treasure. Bought 4 tickets. Den lao ba went around being paranoid again:' i think i really need to shit leh....' so i passed him a ticket and he went to the toilet to sit and i was to call him when de other 2 arrived. Not too long after, i received a call from elephant:

"hello, 我到了，你在那里？"

"at the popcorn dere lah'

"i also dere wor"

" dotz i saw u liao lah."

yah dat was our conversation, she as jsutl iek in front of me den still need call me. Yah so i saw her lor. Call lao ba come out of toilet, den we went in to the Cinema le.

National Treasure 2 was a comedy cum thriller in my opinion. It has its fair share of humour from dumb jokes from Riley Poole (Justin Bartha). In the movie he plays the part of the It expert in hacking etc., but has no actual knowledge on treasure hunting, however the Gates family and Abigail, are the contrary.

Ok, stopping the spoiler now. I give all my fingers up for this show, its...worth your time, well at least it was worth mine.

After the movie, me and lao ba went to the 50 cents arcade play daytona to the maxx, lol dam fun.

Later on, he really made a big joke of himself. He recieved a phone call from his parents, calling him to meet at the bus stop at junction 8, lao ba ask which bus stop, after some questioning, he concluded it was the bus stop right outside the MRT station. He continued walking although he passed the bus stop so i enquired. He said, he was to wait at the taxi stand, den i told him a discovery....there are 2 taxi stands, each on the sides of the road... And lao ba made dat surprised face again and was pretty firm it was that taxi stand, so i left...

Today, was a day, full of laughter if i were to describe it...

Signing off,
Pickles.

PDS AI

Okays. Looks like i wasted another day again. Woke up uber early to go down to HQ NCC to support Wei Kit at his PDS AI graduation ceremony. However, when our entourage of 6 arrived at HQ, it was uncannily silent. And empty too. But we still decided to sign in first. We walked to the Multi Purpose Hall, however we still did not see the performers. We started hesitating about whether to just leave or continue waiting. We went down to the learning corner and just, stoned.

After sometime we decided to walk around, and at that moment we heard people shouting. No wonder we could not see Wei Kit, they were indoors. Wei Kit told us they were going to have a photo taking session, so we went back the the learning corner and waited for time to pass. We expected to hear music in a PDS performance, however there was none, and before we even saw the graduation ceremony, it was over...nice 1. And poor Wei Kit, after attending 2 weeks of this course, was not able to pass, and therefore was denied the PDS AI badge. Sgt Major Warren and us tried negotiating with this ma'am but to no avail. So we decided to head back down to J8 to have lunch...

Poor thing Wei Kit, we feel for you...

Freestyle Drill Performance

Went down to Amoy Quee Camp today to support Samuel Lee, our only cadet who has completed the Freestyle Drill Course. Today was his graduation parade, and there was also a performance by the cadets.

made my way by MRT to Amoy Quee Camp. I arrived at around 8.00. i was 1 hour early. So i waited for SGT Major warren for approximately 1 hour, before he came along in his father's light green Hyundai matrix. I thought he was going to walk with me down the 5 click route, however his dad offered to drive us through, so i was given a lift in Sgt Major Warren's Father's Green Hyundai Matrix.

We had to exchange our EZ-Link cards for a guest pass. Went down to the parade Square and we got the shock of our lives. there was a LOT of people. Yea, so many dat i can see so many outstanding red chairs. Wei xuan came along and we set down. We though we were very early and will have to watch the rehearsal first. However, only when the whole event ended, we found out it wasn't a rehearsal.

Here is the brief summary of the parade.

6 contingents formed up. A short Graduation Ceremony ensued. A US MSG made an amusing graduation speech. Contingent CLTs collected the Certificates. The performance was carried out. The first Contingent was called War Eagles 1, 2nd was Flying Tigers 1, 3rd was Snap 1, and carried on with War Eagles 2 and so on....

Samuel was in Flying Tigers 1. it was a very good performance, we all enjoyed it pretty much. A friend of mine whom i met at Camp Feast was also performing and was in Flying Tigers 2. Their performances was pretty similar yet different.

After the performance ended, the performers went to the canteen for their refreshments while Sgt major Warren, Wei Xuan and I went to look for Samuel in the canteen. After walking a whole round about, we saw him enjoying a fried chicken wing....

We congratulated Samuel and that's about what happened.

When we were about to leave, we dropped by the logistics department as Wei Xuan wanted to change his beret, cos he burnt 2 holes in it thanks to his iron. We later found out that the logistics department was empty so we decided to go back to the Canteen to request for assistance. So, Wei Xuan went up to a captain, and asked for help, Sgt major, Samuel and i turned away and prepared for the worst...

Luckily, he did not receive a dressing-down but was referred to a CLT and was told that the logistics is closed today and to return on Monday...

We left the camp. On our way out, the familiar Hyundai Matrix drove by. Sgt major went off in the car, Samuel and Wei Xuan accepted a lift down to the bus stop while i carried on with my walk. On my way out i met with my friend i talked about earlier on. We talked about the course before parting. And i met Samuel and Wei Xuan, at the bus stop. lol.

Took a bus down to Yio Chu Kang, had lunch at Macs at J8 before returning home. glad to meet my friend at glad to witness the ceremony.

I still remember calling the Unit last night for people to go down to support Samuel, in the end only Sgt major, Wei Xuan and i was there, what a disappointment....

They wanna say I'm quitting...(Quitting)

Squealing off the tyres

My step on the brakes,

And my
Heart beats as much as I can breathe
But I
Don't want claim any stop
They wanna say I'm quitting...(Quitting)

But I
Don't want claim any stop
They wanna say I'm quitting...(Quitting)
