so i guess this entry spells the end of another week. another weekend on ubin to be precise.

went over to ubin again for area 12 atc for lifesaving duty. hope area 13 doesn't require me. Or else, I would really be a ubin PR like what zq suggested.

It was pretty fun weekend, getting to know more npcc acquaintances from other area, having fun together out at sea, imparting our knowledge of kayaking and rafting to the campers, sharing stories, experiences and jokes around. the song singing session we had was great too.

Except for the outward motor incident. For the first time in my life, i actually saw the motor detached itself out at sea and sunk. Had to paddle back to shore from quite a distance. Had a fair bit of swim myself to oriente the aluminium hull for anchoring near shore myself. damn.

and tt wildboar incident. Who says wildboar drill helps anyway.

besides that, all was really fine and gay. It was pretty fun working with zaki, raayan, raudah and andrew again. so was meeting kelvin, lup peng, jing jing, jean, Mann, farizah and co.

went to watch pirates of the carribean 2 with zr, zq and jas. it was damn freaking fantastic a show. enjoyed it very much. the setting was just damn great. then went over to jas hse for the bluff game with dices and some very painful whackings.

so much of sea activity happening around me.

here are some photos for the past 2 weeks. pity i haven secured the one with all the cchsm npcc instructors helping out for sea activity last weekend.

ok. it has been 2 weeks. and here i am feeling relaxed all over. I guess all the major events for the year or at least for the period is over with the end of atc 2006.

spent the weekend over at camp resilence, pulau ubin for atc. though the manpower was very stretched and a lot of things had to be done, i did enjoyed myself very much, particularly with all the meeting up of all the generations of CCHSM NPCC instructors at the ATC. It was nice seeing ms nani again as the OC of TKSS, and Mr Yee as a TO for TeKSS. It was a nice trip out at sea in a powerboat with Mr Yee ( kok kheong), kelvin and karen for my lifesaving duties, though i had quite a few incidents that requires my assistance this year.

It was also very nice to see some CIs from my generation like asrul again. kinda miss ppl like boon xiong, kelvyn, daniel, andrew, yuan ze, geraldine, zhi wei, jeremy. The list goes on.

Of course, there are new CIs joining my rank; (ppl who i used to take for ATC when they were sec 3 cadets). People like joan, dawn, bastian, yeow ho( though din really get to work with him closely yet), jian boon and nazirah. It was lovely meeting them and had such time playing frequency games and the little chats we had over sentry duty with joan, dawn, harry and bastian.

and the current CIs like azrin, lingyan, tianshuo, lian yu, surianni. had a wonderful time with you all. being photo whores and being fierce. and tian shuo for a fun bathing experience all together.

And all thanks to karen for her wonderful fried rice for friday night, and desmond for his fabulous food for every camp...

And to all cchsm npcc instructors like junyi, lam, jon and harry. and guan yong. hongkai too. though we had so much things at hand as the organising unit. lovely.

learnt quite a number of things from the campers as well. It was fun.

I had always love ATC. and all the even more when i become a CI. The feeling is great when the instructors come together to create a memorable camp, usually with the learning session that benefits the campers. be it tekan or little pep talks. no matter how shag u are, it always feels great when you break camp to see each camper a better person, the bonds forged between them, esp when they come from different units with different culture, the intra unit bond strengthening. and the light camp mood on the last day. all these made it real worthwhile.

well, i guess this shall be my last atc if not the second last. had really enjoyed it well and good. thanks guys.

and once again, atc is over, another year has passed.

and i shall move on for now. there are more things to be done. definitely. for now.

it has since been a long time when i last blogged. ok, to sum up everything, had my papers last week. not likely to fare well but pretty do-able.

went down to the unit to overlook the first activity of the new NCOs. ok, it was somewhat the same scenario again, i saw kids taking kids. but i'm sure that they will prove themselves to be very good NCOs in time to come. irregardless of who they were before, i'm very sure they will mature and deliver, just like the last batch. Which i believe that every current instructors including myself will do what we can to help them learn and grow. whatever measures we are going to take.

sat was SYF. though it was downright saikang, i'm so glad that it turned out well. though it was very exhausting, what makes it all worthwhile is when u see the happy faces of the little kids waving a goodbye to you, ( teenage girls inclusive). the 12hrs duty again let me see the shades of ugly singaporean pushing, rowdy behaviour and all. esp when queueing up to get inside the stadium.

and the loads of rubbish they left behind.

and i got a splitting headache now. damn.
