OBS'09 WAS THE BOOMS.
Saturday, November 21, 2009

SWEET! I'm back from OBS'09 5D4N Leadership camp.

It was tiring though. But Fairfield Methodist Secondary School managed it well. HAHAHAH
Day1:
WE WERE LATE FOR THE BRIEFING SESSION BECAUSE OF THE BUS UNCLE.
MANZ WE'RE FEELING PAISEH LEH. There ; Reached the OBS Reception Centre at the End of Punggol Road. DESERTED- Well there were some Bungalows near there.

We were just having our belaying lessons and basically, letting us settle down. All of us were quite though. But the ball catching game was seriously the start of Marshalls'09 friendship. A simple game of ball catching using your left hand to throw to your right person and catching at the same time with your left hand too was pretty cool. We managed to do it in around or less than 5mins? With good communication and teamwork spirit. Pitched our tents and got everything sorted out from our mess tins for cooking of food, Food Rations throughout the whole 3 days outside sea, 4Litres of water bottles each & all those nitty gritty small stuffs. & That's it. We slept in tents around the woods of Pulau Ubin OBS Camp1.

Day2:
We had our Kayaking lessons. Learnt how to capsize our kayaks and got back on with the help of other kayaks. DAMN COOL ;
A bit scary lah though. It was out sea and the base of the kayak was like pure white. Which triggered a small bit of my mind to think that was a shark! D: ( I'm NUTS ) :D
Some of our bottles were like floating away. We had our lunch and kayaked off to the Punggol Jetty at the OBS Reception Centre. We cant bath nor shower. We just had a 5mins of group washing. Which was pretty cool. As all of us were delighted that there was a cleanup. That really made us closer together. Pitched our tents and it was raining. :/
THIS WHOLE WEEK WAS RAINING LIKE A MAD DOG.
So yeah, Muddy tents ; Wet and Soiled tents we had to sleep in.
We kayaked from Pulau Ubin to Punggol: 8Km

Day3:
We're to go to Sembawang Water Adventure Campsite. Which was around 5km sea difference i think. Again, No shower No bathing. Gaming Session was LAME but cool. It started to rain, Rain and all our tents were soiled AGAIN and Again. Dinner time was total crap. Oh well, Me and Siti put our OA skills to good use. HAHAHAHAHAH. Cos the the leaders had briefing and the leaders are mainly like from Uniformed Groups So yeah. We tied the poles with cotton twine against the trees and with the waterproof blue tarb. It was so so happening at dinner as all the 4 groups, Kurt ; Munshi ; Marshall & Bo Seng gather together and cooked dinner.
& Guess what? Our dinner was just plain Instant Noodles.
And Christopher smuggled a can of Chicken Luncheon Meat into our tent and we ate that for supper. HAHAHA :x Opps, blurted out that. Games like " Who ; What ; Huh ; Orhh " Was played. :)

Day4:
We unpitched our tents and arranged and settled everything from our backpacks and everything. There, We're Kayaking towards from Sembawang Adventure Water Campsite back all the way to Pulau Ubin Camp1. = Total 15Km to travel back. FUN FUN FUN. All of us thought like it would be tougher and harder. The Hard part was when we had to kayaked the fastest as we can as those big ships were coming towards us and crossing the Channels of the Sea. Mans ; It was Good workout. All of us had bigger muscles. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Same ; Breakfast & Lunch & Dinner was just: Bread, Bread, Biscuits, Instant Noodles ; Canned Tuna in oil, Canned Chicken Luncheon Meat, Canned Sardines, Canned Curry Chicken, Canned Baked Beans, Canned Peanuts. It was sick i tell you.
Sea-Sickness was the common thing throughout the 3 days in total.
Kayaked back to Pulau Ubin Camp1. & We're very early then our leaders expected. COOLIOS!
Settled down and We're ready for Rock Climbing! 4 Storeys high though. & I made it; without the second try. It was awesome. Marshians forever.

Day5:
Julia had Eye ulcer. Thats the first thing i remembered when doing day5. Hahhahaha Joke lah you Julia, and your Big big shades.
We had a proper breakfast at the cookhouse. & we had our last Marshall Circle i guess. Eva was crying. Prata boy was a joker. Pub boy was mabo-ed. Wrote our reflections and OBS feedback form. We said our thanks and appraises. & sang the barney song; Okay. I know its kinda awkward but it was touching.
Our Instructor was always making sure that we're the first in everything we do and we are! We're the first ones do do everything. Dinner, Shopping at OBS souvenir shop and sorts. Loved it with no regrets.
I'm serious! OBS never let me down. Or any other camps ;

I think i'm like going to try to blog more often lah. Cos its the Holidays. LOls

Marshall'09 I miss you. :)
