Camp STEEL 2009 Part 1
On 26/8/2009, its our Camp STEEL, a camp for Part B (Sec 2) NCC cadets, compared to Camp FEAST which is for Sec 1s. At about 7.30a.m. we met up at school and boarded the bus to HQ NCC, at Amoy Quee Camp.When we reached there, it sures bring back memories of last year's Camp FEAST, which was held at the same place. We had our bags checked and we were split up into different platoons with other schools. I was placed in Platoon 3, with 2 other of my classmates and 3 other from my neighbouring class. I was also in the same platoon with 1 Primary school classmate. After that we placed our stuffs in our bunk.We then went to the multi-purpose hall for some talks by one of the officers. Basically he was talking about some ways to become a good leader and successor. It was quite a boring talk but still, I paid full attention as a respect and wrote down notes. Anyway what the talk said is true, it made sense. There was no such talks in last year's Camp FEAST, it is meant for Part Bs only.After that we went for lunch, the food was rather nice, I managed to finish up everything.After that we went for the orienteering talk, which was also absent in Camp FEAST. Basically they talked how to read maps (like recapping what we learnt in Geography lessons). We then got to walk uphill, downhill or flat ground to count our paces.We were then supposed to go to our obstacle course, what unfortunately, it was cancelled due to stupid weather, what a pity! We then went to some room for some talks where we were supposed to introduce yourselves.After that, we went to the MPH again for some talks again by the same officer. After finishing the talks, we went for dinner. The dinner was some noodles, the difference was that we got to see the Muslims break fast and ate with us.After dinner, we went to the MPH again for the survival quiz where we were given a scenario and had to arrange the items needed for survival according to level of importance. I was embarrassed to say that our group did very badly.we then went to the auditorium for some military movies. The movie was very boring as I did not really understand but the good thing was that I got to enjoy the air-con, very cooling...After that, we had our supper and went to sleep. The sleep was terrible! Though with spongy beds and a pillow, I still could not sleep at all! Guess I was not used to it. I only slept for 5 hours...To be continued...Labels: camp, NCC, part 1
