The Black World Of Solitude.

Friday, 23 April 2010

Came back from NCC camp on 22nd April. Quite boring, seeing that we only did three activities.

First we entered the NCC campus and were split up into groups. Was already er... scolded for not answering loudly enough. Then went to place my stuff in the bunk and left to fall in at the road. Volunteered to help transfer some bedsheets and other items, and ended up waiting for a few moments before moving the stuff.

At 9am we had the welcome talk from the commander of NCC Sea District (the camp was for cadets from air district).

Had the icebreaker first. Didn't really take part in it. Sabo the IC alot of time. Nth better to do. Played some games.

Then we had rappelling. Done something like this before, so not at all scary. Except my glove had a hole in it. Hand was damn pain. (remember friction)

Then we were supposed to have paintball activity. Then lightning was seen, the alarm sounded, and all outdoor activities were cancelled. No paintball, no obstacle course. Because of the weather. Spent our time in the canteen, with some seniors teaching us some cheer or whatever. But I think we got too noisy, we were forced to have our ears touching the table for supposedly five minutes (we ended up staying longer than five min) without lifting our head. -.-

Then we had trainfire. Was about to dissemble the rifle when someone in another group lost the retaining pin of the rifle. Entire activity cancelled, and we were forced to sit down without moving for like 20 min while the seniors combed the area for that pin. We were supposed to have paintball at night (remember it was raining in the afternoon) but this event cancelled the activity, and we didn't have a chance anymore.

Went back to bunk. Collected the bedsheets and whatever crap. Shifted my stuff to the upper bunk of the double bunk bed. The one closest to the wall. And then two moths were so damn irritating, i shot one with rubber band when it was resting on the window grill. It moved a little, and fell all the way down onto the ground. Tried to fly but couldn't do so. My friend stepped on it. The other moth appeared on the wall which was where I was going to sleep at, and I smashed it (I think). Damn irritating. Placed the wall fan to blow directly at me whilst still blowing others, and slept throughout the night.

I woke up and found my phone on the floor, smashed into pieces (The battery fell out, the covers front and back came out along with the keypad, it was a damn old nokia phone). Fixed it back, and couldn't sleep anymore. Left the bunk at 6am and fell in. Had breakfast, and then a few hours of orienteering. Then in the afternoon we had trainfire again (all activities were ceased once the missing pin was reported to the air commander who appeared out of nowhere). Then went back to pack bunk, and left the camp.

After all the ACS(I) NCC Air people gathered together, we had to wait like 20-30min for the bus to arrive. Throughout the entire journey the place was covered by dark cloud. Damn dark. Was around five, and it looked like seven. Terrible.

So I only took part in three activities.
