Hey peeps! Sorry for not updating for a while... I juz came back from OBS! And it was TONS OF FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I miss the guys frm my watch... Damn nice ppl from KCP and Macpherson...Day 1: Met Danial,Nabil and Karim at Macs for breakfast and reported in school... Mr Subra briefed us then it was off to Punggol Jetty... Upon reaching, We took a boat to the OBS site in Pulau Ubin... Then we were splited up into groups.. and my watch is BARKER!!!! fortunately, Nabil was in my group! We had ice breakers wif ropes.. Then we put our stuff in our dorm and we had kayaking... My partner was Lina(a PELS from KCP) Nice and friendly gal... We learned hw to do a kayak rescue and also played water polo kayak style! haha.. Lina and I managed to stay dry the whole time! lol! after that we had dinner and we slept in our dorm which was one big room divided by 3 wooden walls.. Day 2: Woke up at 5 then prepared for morning PT...Did the 5 basic ex and also run 2 rounds around the compound... After that, we went for LAND EXPEDITION!!!!!!!!! haha.. Lois(our instructor aka your highness) taught us how to read a map and the compass.. It was lead by Mark and Jin Han( 2 SLs from KCP)... Through the whole journey, ppl from my watch took turns to lead.. and the funniest was Nabil, He totally freaked out when he saw the gigantic spider in front of him. HAHAHA!!! During the expedition, I totally bonded wif the grp! We reached the compound before dinner time and had dinner there.. After dinner, we prepared ourselves for the sea expedition the next day! Everyone in the bunk was chattin till 12 plus! hahaDay 3: We woke up at ard 5 plus then we got prepared for PT, it was juz simple games then we loaded the things up the boat and had breakfast... At 8.30, We prepared our kayaks wif 3 other groups (Suisen,Marshall and Munshi). I was suppose to kayak wif Lina but they needed strong kayakers to take the single steater becioz some ppl had no partner becoz their partner was sick... So I took the single kayak and It was super fun!!! I managed to noe other ppl from other watches! and also I was drifting most of the time! hahahahaha! We reached the campsite ard 4 plus! which means we kayaked ard 22km withnin 8 hours!!!!!! The guys setted up the tent while the gals cooked... After dinner, We chatted till 11 plus then went to sleep..Day 4: Woke up at ard 5 to pack up the equipment then at ard 7.45 we kayaked back to the first campsite.. I kayaked wif Catherine!!!!!!!!!!!( a gal from macpherson) hahahaha.. She is so nice and funny la! both of us went high sharing jokes and stuff throughout the journey back! She is Cat Irwin!! LOL! and she likes to call me Abu( the head counciller for Macpherson) hahaha!.. when we reached the OBS compound we went for lunch and we did rock climbing!!! hahaha It was tons of fun! then we went to the souvenir shop! I bought an OBS shirt! After that it was dinner... After dinner, we went back to our bunk to wash and count our equipment after that Nabil,Lina,Eunice,Charmaine and I waited for everyone to sleep before putting colgate on the guys! hahahaha.. They said they wanted KFC! haha extra mash potatoes! lol!!Day 5: We woke up at 5.30... We had to wake Suisen up as most of them were still sleeping... hahaha... We had morning PT then breakfast... After breakfast, we packed up our things and did our last and final activity as a watch.. We went to the jetty for jetty jumping! We had to say our commitment before jumping into the sea... I was the 1st one to go and it was super fun!!!!!!!! U would wan to do it again after u jumped the first time... How ever Lois didnt let us... We went back to our bunk to shower and we exchanged phone numbers before going for lunch.. After lunch, we had a tok then we went home...I miss the BARKERIANS!...
