Overnight Briefing

Oh well. I am supposed to blog about this activity which doesn't seem like a word feeder like Annual Camp and what nots. But anyway that Wednesday just have to start with Muster Parade. ='(
Apparently Muster Parade was supposed to be on CNY eve, but I guess since it had to be cancelled, it has been pushed forward to this week. That means, the next one should be week 9 and that's it (i hope, pray, 拜, chant, etc).
As always, the commands for the Muster Parade never fail to daunt me. With all the tongue twisting and vocal draining pronunciations, what else can keep you on your toes besides a nice list of commands that stretches 3 lines across my paper per command? =P

Horseshoe was blown at the Raffles Square and sadly 6 Ventures had to be late. ='(
It was a sad thing that was sadder when some SU members forgot their uniforms...
And the saddest part was that the J1s didn't have to wear their uniforms.

However sad it was, Muster Parade still has to go on because Faizal isn't sad is he? So we lined up as usual at the super-duper-really-seriously squeezed and crammed lane outside the library. We sized up as usual and everything seemed fine. (it is quite pointless to get excited with words for this part. It's like wanting me to write about Muster Parade matrix style... -.-||)

So the procession started. A few people were playing basketball and I think I saw my form teacher there as well! I heard he is a really good basketball player, not sure if he was from the school team though.

So the procession ended. The next activity was PT.
Venture PT has always been fun and exciting. Now that Yan Zhi had to fracture his toe (ouch! if you fractured your toes I could have said ouches but oh well, you only managed to fracture one! =p), we got Haliim and Jun Jie as our PT aliens.
We ran to RJC, did crunches on a really wierd area (those not designated for people to do exercises) and continued running on the field. Then Haliim got a brilliant idea and we all were the people who were experimenting his brilliant idea! (:
It was GL sprinting which was... GL. Basically we were sprinting with knees to our chests, feet to our butts and what nots (or rather that was all).
PT then continued with 1 more round around the field and finally to the pull-up bars where we tried to scam them with the Hiok Chiou + Chin Yang trade we had earlier. Apparently they weren't for the challenge of "the number of pullups both j1s can do times 2 and divided among the whole venture batch that is present".
In the end we did 8 (which mind you was less than the trade we got haha).

So after PT was the overnight lecture itself. There really isn't much to say about that besides the fact that we saw Yan Zhi say "shit!" then zoomed off across the LT and scrambled his way out of the LT. Till today the mystery has yet been solved.

Since we weren't really involved in learning how to wear the scout uniform, we discussed about some Venture related stuff which includes something the SU cannot know as well as backwoods. I guess we all are looking forward to the backwoods preparation session we have on Saturday (especially those in the special backwoods section)!

For those who have no clue (i assume you are younger), wait till you become Ventures to understand what we just said.
For those who have a clue, shhhhhh because you may be called up for an investigation by the police. I mean you have a clue right...
