Hi guys!

On Monday, we had Scouts Skill training together with the SU. Now, why am I posting this only now? Well, it is because I'm a lazy bugger very, very busy person with alot of personal commitments. Anyway, we shall just have to delete Shi De's post discreetly so that we get the chronological order correct.

Anyway, I am sure that you guys are desperately craving for the scintillating details about knot tying and first aid, which is afterall a highly interesting activity. But this is a wenture'08 blog, and interesting as skills training might be, it loses all meaning without its star attraction.

Shi De gives his
very ugly Handsome Smile™

Oops, it seems like all our female blog visitors whom we all pray and believe exists (some people do believe in aliens and the Loch Ness monster after all) has just been scared away, but we will just have to make do. We accept no responsibilities for any deaths or injury caused directly or indirectly as a result of Shi De's megawatt hansem smile.

Anyway, back to the story: so we first had orienteering, where we basically covered some of the stuff that we did for our Gold standard like constellations and finding directions and stuff, which was taught by Zhao Wei Jie. Then, we had First Aid, where we did SRIT with Ng Jun Jie, and did the arbitrary CPR demo, and throw in a couple of broken limbs, burns and a delicious assortment of excruciatingly painful injuries and you get a recipe fit for a... Scout?

The last one was knots, where we were just supposed to recap our Gold knots. However, some of us who were bomb lazy already well-versed in the arts of knot tying decided to screw around, and I soon created my own spanking cool new cool knot, which I happily named a Donut Knot and went around showing others.

Example:

Me: Hey Haoqin! Look at my spanking cool new cool knot!
Haoqin: Is that your spanking cool new cool knot?
Me: Yeah! Its my spanking cool new cool knot?

...Ad infinitum.

However, Koala had other plans for my spanking cool new cool knot, and upon me showing it to him, he proudly demonstrated his advanced knowledge in biology by calling it something else, which made me throw my Donut Knot at him. See Kelvin, its a Donut Knot, you sick freak. The owner has the right to name it.

This was actually the highlight of my knots session =O

Speaking of knots, it seems that we all need to give some gratitude to our dear VQM:
