OBS

ohkayes...
so i've been slackin off the blog agn.
been like 5 days since OBS ended.
mmm

so, my last post was abt DYD..
(damn fun xD)
then last sunday was mostly OBS shopping.
goin to random places.
or did i alrdy mention that?
lol wadever.

so anyway
FIRST DAY OBS:
waiting arnd at the place in punggol for first part while they settled some admin/logistic matters.
zzz
that was damn sian

so in my group didn't really know anyone, besides ppl from my class
(julian jing heng nhien (if that's how you spell it))
haiz
oh wells?

then finally took the boat/ferry/ whatever over to pulau ubin
i wasn't all that looking forward to OBS,
cos i knew it wasn't gonna be easy,
and it was gonna be super tough
although of course there was the fact that i'm used to those kinda shit (thanks to scouts)

mm...
so then there was reshuffling of the groups and zhen hong ended up in my group (so another familiar face)
our "watch" as they call it was called hillary.
o.o
after the edmund guy who climbed mt everest first.
rofl, there was a watch called "livingston" or livingstone. i dno which is the actual spelling
so then our instructor was elton
he gave us a quick intro to OBS and briefing sort of
he seemed like quite a cool guy

so then our first day started. (officially)
lots of stuff to learn, like how to pitch a tent, how to pack a backpack.
(stuff i've been familiar with)
the only activity we had that day was belaying practice.
first night was irritating.
while we were trying to get everyone together after cooking dinners in the outdoors,
plus washing all the mess tins and pot (RAWR this eff-ing pot)
then cldn't find them.
our deadline was running out...

in the end found that kevin richard and marcus went to shower...
=,=!!
i was like, WTF.........
haiz

but at least they tried to make up for it by volunteering to wash the pot
there was still soot left in it though (not that they can really be blamed... the pot is SCREWED up)
so then we had to use sand/soil (yes...DIRT) to scrape/rub off the soot.
HAIZ...freakin pissed sia
DAMN difficult to get off

so...i volunteered to be IC that night
(okay, so the thing is, elton didn't assign ICs for each day, or even food ICs or store ICs like all the other watches.)
shudder
me? in charge of shit?
daaaammnn

SECOND DAY OBS:
so then next day (we slept in dome shape tent luckily)
woke up to rain...
then stoned a bit cos dunno whether shld go out and unpitch or not.
so we kena late lorh...
(but they like heck care if your late or not sia...totally unlike scouts)
1.2 km trek to next camp
didn't seem like much compared to hikes.
but actually was tired...shoulders already achin
did rock climbing, which was damn fun xD
also first time i tried before.... (sigh... P5 camp)

then basic kayaking "course" or rather instructions,
capsize and rescue,
how to paddle
stuff like that...

people screwed up the instructions lorh,
then instructors shouted...
zzz wtf lah...
after that still got PT.... =,=
damn bloody tiring

and the best thing?
i was STILL IC......
dinner was catered..... so....yea

(but supper was screwed lah....me and nicholas spent half an hour looking for elton...=,=)
by this time ppl were starting to cooperate

THIRD DAY OBS:
wed....abt halfway thru... wooots?
kayaking (sea expedition) for most day
annoyin when ppl got in our way and we langah them.
me and jing heng partnered...
managed to keep up with the front most of the time.
sea lunch was quite cool,
and good cos i was bloody hungry

reached our destination (a whoping 15km away)
then beached and put the kayaks away.
started to rain, then pour
and we hadn't even pitched our tents...!!
this was DAMN pissing....

julian was like missing suddenly
(my tent group was jing heng, lucian, julian)
and we were missing some stuff (pegs or smth like that, or smth)
and no one was willing to help us sia...
doing their own tents first....
i was like
f***??
we can't even get started DAMN...

haiz...
but in the end ours was up, and the unlucky ones who had the A-frame tent,
hard time, cos theirs needed pegs, and the ground was ROCK hard
again, i was the one who went to look for instructors...
was getting sick of it,
but i kinda guessed if i didn't do it no one would...then we'd be screwed
i'd figured by then that i'd end up being IC all five days....

RAIN FREAKING SUX...

FOURTH DAY OBS:
woke up... it was raining again....
sheesh.... D=
EVERYTHING, clothes,shoes,bags, was wet
even the tent wasn't waterproof
then everyone was more concerned abt their own packing and having breakfast than helping unpitch.
when time to pack up and leave, everyone was damn slow...
was damn irritated.
plus my voice was gone from shouting the past few days.

so then, Land expedition (trekking)
OUch....
shoulders were freaking pain shit.

i tried to help carry the tent and share the load.
we climbed to the highest point in ubin,
then made our way to chek jawa.
finally got to rest.....ouuucchhhhhhiiess
had lunch...
yumyumyuym

then had to set off again...
groan

ended up in the middle of a thunderstorm though,
so took shelter in some random...uh, shelter... lol
talk cock with wen jun, marcus, richard, nicholas
at least got to rest...
then had to continue....
sadly, i wasn't all that enthu to help carry the tents anymore
=(
was really just damn tired...
i know everyone else was too...
so i felt quite guilty...
in the end helped carry for a while also lorh

FINALLY reached the place =D
then we had to wash and pack up the equipments...
could've waited till last day, but decided to do everythin on the fourth day
LOVE the instructors for that... xD
so we finished...

then dinner was a celebration!!! =D
yea!!!
we did some random sketch (courtesy of julian's screwed up imagination)
the other group did some random dance...
lol the sketch was damn funny when we planned it....

________
Murali is a new entree in the "inward bound" prison..
Elton goes up to him and hypnotises him using the random bzzt thingy....
instrcuts murali to take over the prison.
Elton: "How much time you need?"
Murali: "10 weeks"
Elton: "eh, don't give me double digits leh"
Murali: "erm, 9 weeks 6days"
Elton: "okay larh okay larh, give you 10weeks"
Mruali: "ok"
Elton: "eh, i so kind, give you one more day, at least clap larh"
Murali: "oh...*claps*"

so then Murali goes around defeating various people in the hierachy.
on the Final Day:
Elton: "when i tell you your final target, i want you to shout yay!"
Murali: "okay"
Elton: "your target is Mr. Jillary"
Murali: "yay!"

so then they fight.
Murali appears to be losing.
just then, he spots a puddle of water.
*jumps in puddle of water*
Mr. Jillary is stunned...
Murali shouts as he deals the final blow: "Die, you Kway Tiao!"
and shouts "yay!"

Murali reports back to Elton.
Elton stones.
Murali: "eh, clap lah"
*both clap*

so then a lot more bullcrap
then story end...
rofl...
it's mostly a lot of inside jokes, and poking fun at the instructors.
