DAY I~ 18/03/2005
Arrived at school by 5 pm. Instead of the planned 3-2-1 flagstaff, xun yong made us create a 4-3-2-1 flagstaff. Tying is easy, but bringing it up was very hard. after tying, we left for the den, without raising the flagstaff. The event started with a pasar malam at the basketball court. damn, it was embarrassing! Laying out everything you brought at the basketball court- including underwear. there were still some students at the school at that time and they stared and laughed away. I NEVER EVER wanna do that again. after that was the raising of the flagstaff. it took very long to find the pegs and not to mention it was already very dark by that time. in the end, the flagstaff was raised by 10pm. (!) that leaves the dinner and sleeping time. My patrol had to make shoe rack, which in the end was never used at all, and clear the whole class of #01-06 to make a place to sleep.
DAY II~ 19/03/2005
The beginning of the REAL jobweek. It was started with a pasar malam in the classroom at 7am. But even so, we woke up at 4.30am to bathe and prepare the 'ULTIMATE' pasar malam (the troop get screwed up real badly last year because of pasar malam) by that time, it was already 6.30, so, i spend the rest of the time to tie up the uncompleted shoe rack. It was still as wobbly as last night in the end. Marvin got sick before 7 and was sent home. at 7, the pasar malam began. it was horrible. Mubarak could dig out even the slightest mistake from each and everyone's pasar malam! fortunately, he was still lenient towards the sec 1s. we wrapped up the pasar malam with 20 pumpings (the original amount was 80). Anyway, 5 mins after we packed up, it was ceremony time. Everyone above the sec 1 level was permitted to wear full uniform XDDD (YAY~!). following the ceremony was breakfast. after that, we received our jobweek card and went off to the designated place for my shark patrol, Lucky Heights. the first few hours was great! my team, which consisted of Liang Wei, Teck Jun and I managed to find a job that earned $200 within an hour, with some complementary drinks provided. it was an enjoyable job. we washed the car, vacuumed the house, clean the toilet and storeroom, weed the garden and wash the corridors outside. However, all the credits was taken by my evil patrol leader, joash. he dropped by at the house and claimed the $200 along with the credit, which entitle him to the gold bumblebee badge this year. because of the easy $200 we made, we decided to slack for the rest of the day. we ate lunch at banquette in east point mall, the 6 of us (Joash, me, Liang wei, teck jun, alex and mitchell). After that, back to the jobweek which only earned us around a total of $15. We went back to camp at 5. Joash and I and the rest who are going to the concert prepared ourselves while the rest continued with jobweek. The concert was kinda boring with me, snoozing during some events. But, the ticket was worth a thousand pumpings. I heard that the whole troop got it from chun huan while i was watching the concert. To top it off, they did it in public. That was real bad. Jerry and lester from amir's patrol cried after that.
To be continued next time...
