alright then i shall blog a nice long post for all of you (: hmm first starting with flag day last sat.
it was alright, quite tiring i guess. Seriphos got chosen to go EUNOS. a super ulu place. butttt i met my grandparents ahahha (: i paired with tzuhsiang and peijun and we were collecting donations outside my grandparents flat so yea i wasnt really THAT surprised (: then we went to Bedok after lunch. i stood outside KFC at that huge square there asking for donations. i gotta tell you, peijun is damn good at collecting donations. she asks EVERYONE and shes super hardworking (: her tin is heavier than mine! :O
haha during flagday we met lots of really interesting people. someone almost gave me $50! (: haha it was cos he was looking for coins and he couldnt find any. so he reached into the notes compartment and pulled out a $50 note, stared at me and the tin, then smiled sheepishly and pushed the note back in, apologised and left. haha so cute! of course i was like no prob! after all, who would part with $50 for flag day? other than rich people la, but normal people like us? plus he may need that $50 so....argh im just crapping haha.
BUT miracles do happen! someone gave chanel $50! :O Hera'd prob get the highest cos of that $50 note :p and there was someone else who was really cute. this indian lady saw me and started pulling out her purse: a sign that she wants to donate (sir junxiang said so). so i went over and asked her for donations. then she looked at me, and said: how did you know that i wanted to donate? with this really cute expression and she started laughing (: cute!
it was an experience, as this is my first flagday and last flagday with SJ. :/ so yea. alright then moving on to what happened next. hmmm.... school was quite boring throughout the whole week, so nothing much to blog about. but yesterday, we had our training (: and the sec 1 comp (:
alright shall talk about training first. i was very unlucky that day and got chosen for i/c with kian kok -.- actually xiu han volunteered and was i/c for 15 min before the instructors chose me to take over. -.- it came as a total shock. one minute i was stoning there, the next min cpl wan ting was saying that szeying will replace xiuhan for ic o.O
We had footdrill first. it was really long and we kept doing the same drills over and over again. so we were mentally and physically exhausted. one of the rare times we had footdrill for so long. after that we had TOC. we learnt how to open and close the stretcher and how to change over and stuff. its rather confusing but we'll prob have more practices so its ok (: then we had PT.
before PT i was like going around asking for the warm-up exercises because my mind suddenly went blank -.- so went warm-up came, phew i could remember. and thankfully, kian kok could too (: PT was rather erm slack? we were divided into two groups and one group will stay in pumping position at the obstacle course while the other group does the same at the lockstore.
i was at the obstacle course and its kinda unfair, cos the route from the obstacle course was MUCH longer. grrr. and we were required to go in pairs carrying a stretcher so yea. so 2 pairs went together and me, wanyu, elaine and kiankok went first. haha at first i was like erm its not so bad. then kian kok told us to jog slowly because the route is really long and we'll get tired very easily, esp with the stretcher. halfway through the parade square, i was huffing and panting and yep he's right bleh. so we mantained a slow jog with the stretcher to the lock store.
but this PT, we didnt get to bond. when we were split into two groups, our cheering was so empty and it feels incomplete, cos half of the squad is gone. our morale for PT yesterday was a far-cry from the first routine with the std 3s, where the PT really pushed us to our limits and our morale was really high. so yea.
when everyone completed the relay, we went to the sit-up bench and we were told by the instructors that this was where we would make it up to them for our mistakes. because on zone games day, some didnt wear standardised socks, so the socks ic (hosimin) would run 2 rounds around the field. because our beret wasnt properly seasoned and some didnt bring yesterday, the beret ic (cindy) would run 2 rounds too. because our hair is out of place and messy, the hair ic (hoyee) will run 2 rounds. and because today, 2 people didnt bring beret and 2 people didnt bring PT kit, the squad ics for that day (me and kiankok) would run two rounds too. while the rest will sit or stand or stay in pumping position and watch us run.
urgh horrible punishment. the squad offered to run with all of us, but the instructors refused because this, according to them, would make us think twice before committing the same mistakes again. so hosimin and hoyee ran first, then me cindy and kian kok ran. it was kinda touching? hearing the squad cheer for us. we were huffing and puffing because we just ran the relay with the stretchers and now we had to run 2 rounds around the field. but hearing the "3 cheers for ICs" that the squad gave when we finished, it wasnt that bad i think (:
then it was the prize-giving ceremony for the std 1 comp. we were very worried and stuff for our own juniors. in the end, here are the results.
1st: Jenova
2nd: Benedictus
3rd: Hera
4th: Dactyl
5th: Aegis
6th: Seriphos
so yup we got last. but is kinda ok because last year we got really low too but even though the std 1s got last, im sure they had a very memorable competition and they'll strive harder for next year's intra-comp (: and maybe this will also teach them to take comp train seriously because for them, they dont have time to slack during comp train because they only had 6 comp trains before the competition. and this year wasnt very good because they were running on a really tight schedule and the std 1s were only informed of the date on zone games day, which gives them approximately 3 weeks ONLY to prepare for comp.
so to Seriphos std 1s: its alright and you didnt really disappoint us. we just hope that you had a memorable sec 1 comp and you had fun during comp train and learnt alot (: and also bonded with your house seniors more (: so jiayou for next year's intra-comp! (:
and to the rest of the std 1s: congrats to all of you! you are all winners (:
