" There's something about OBS
that stays with you for life. "


Uh'uh. So damn true.
I'm gonna write a compre, more like a grandmoma story sooooooo, bare with me! Heh! ^^

30 Dec:
Started off my day by crying. I was afraid that I could not make it to school on time and the bus would leave without me. Cried and cried till my eyes were swollen. As soon as I've reached, they were all ready in their groups. Mine was RAFFLES and we rock alot. Leave Spf at around 0800 and off to Punggol Jetty. RAFFLES consist of Bernice, Afiqah, Khadijah, Nadzirah, Aishah, Gilbert, Joe, Wan Ying, Minn Xuan, Marx, Wee Kiat, Kai Yang, Zachary, Weicong, Vicky and I. Our instructor was Arfan and my first impression of him was he's boring and dull and was not fun at all since he was busily kept doing admin stuffs. But, I guess you really can't judge a book by it's cover. Arfan was indeed THE best instructor in OBS. Played bonding games and took pictures. Bored at first.

Our campsite really looks like a military camp and I told myself "Dead dead". It really sucks. Like unexpected. I really thought it was an enjoyable one where we could do CRC and stuffs. But, pfft, NO. Our's is more to survival. -.- Arfan kept MIA and we're all very pissed off since we're always the last group to assemble. When he reached, we played more bonding games and this time, I kindda enjoy myself. A bit only. After a while, did kayaking and we had to capsize. My partners were Bernice and Khadijah and we laughed our ass off when we could not get back on our kayak when we capsize already. So we laughed and nearly peed. Hilarious.

For dinner, we cooked our own food while some of them bathe. I found out that my group was not that bad though.

1st Dec:
Woke up at 0500 and we did morning PT. Bernice and I became the Food IC (since we're in F&N (: Heh.) After having our breakfast, we did rock climbing. The wall was very challenging but I didn't get to climb on it. -.- Sad thing but luckily I get to do belaying. After climbing, we had treking(practice) to camp 1. We had to trek with our backpacks which are heavy. Help Bernice to carry hers which consist of tents. I was loss for words as soon as I reached there. It was like, heaven. Way better than our Camp 2. Their rock walls and CRC are fun and exciting -.- THEY EVEN HAD SWIMMING POOL. After settling our stuffs, we had a puzzle competition. RAFFLES won the game :D So happy. We had SEA EXPEDITION aka C X PEDITION breifing and at first, Bernice and I thought that it was ...... EXPEDITION and we laughed like mad. Hahahaha! The briefing was long and I kept staring at KB. HAHAHAHA. So cute but emo. Slept at 1100 and sorry Bernice.

2nd Dec:
Had PT. Actually got no mood since we were late and futhermore, I wore the wrong side of my trackpants. HAHAHA. Embrassing but luckily it's not obvious that it was in the wrong position! We had SEA EXPEDITION briefing by our CX leaders. My partners were Afiqah and Huai Wei. Me likey. We kayak the whole Ubin and I was in full spirit. Like so sudden lah. Felt so good bout it. My group kayak like nobody's business till we overtake the front people. Crazy right! But it was fun. :D Then in the midst of kayaking, it rained. The waves get stronger and it was very scary. It reminds me of 2012 actually :P Had lunch on the kayak while it rains. No wonder I'm sick now. We continue kayak when the rain stops till we reached an island. That's when disasters struck. The island were desserted and there were no toilets. At first, when the CX leaders told us where's our "toilets" I thought it was real toilets, with cubicle and water but nah, it's just bushes. Cheat my feelings only. Later on at night, I peed, with Afiqah, Hayati, Atiqah, new friends - Insyirah and another girl. Funny and we laughed while we peed. HAHAHAHA. Dinner was maggie mee with curry. Sucks but when you're in camp, you don't care about the food. Everything you eat seems nice. You don't even care about your appearance at all. I don't even bathe and brush my teeth you know. -.- -.- -.- And for once, I didn't have a chance to retie my hair. Had night rounding(?) or something at around 0300 for 20 minutes. We had to ensure that there are no wild boars and wild dogs disturbing our backpacks and food. Didn't encounter any of them though.

3rd Dec:
The whole 2Bravos - Raffles, Nila Utama, Dagama and Hilary overslept. We're supposed to wake up at 0500 but end up waking up at 0630. See how exhausted we were! Rushed and meet our respective instructors. After debriefing, we built Rafts. That's when RAFFLES work hard together. At first, we didn't agree to one's decision but since we're short of time, we finally gave in and listen to one another. The objectives was to ensure that the Rafts could float and is strong. Our group didn't win since we did not finish up tieing just one barrel. Wasted. In the end, we had one road block for our LAND EXPEDITION. What a bummer. Carried our backpacks and off to trekking! From the island to Chek Jawa. Tiring but we keep moving forward. Took truns to carry the watr bottles and jerry cans. On the way to Check Jawa, Afiqah and I talked nonsense to "boost" up our mood. Laughed and laughed till we reached a checkpoint. Then we intend to use our lifelines so that's why Arfan cancelled Chek Jawa for us! (: Continue trekking and we trek to the highest peak of Ubin. There, the view was awesome and Arfan kept telling his travellers stories which from RAFFLES point of view, is HIS STORIES. Haha. Arfan, we love you! :D

Then he told us to shout and when we did, we could hear echos back. It was touching. He told us that the echos are part of our lifes... Continue trekking back. This time to German Girl's Shrine. Kai Yang and Zachary thought it was a real german girl with blonde hair but as soon as they thought it was a barbie doll, they were devastated and were dissapointed. I laughed when I looked at their reaction. HAHAHA. Those guys huh, were conned! xD Trekked to Camp 2 and it was super far. The ground was all muddy and was wet. Talked to Bernice and soon, reached our campsite. I was over the moon by then! Dinner was nice. We had bonus food - Cambell soup, Jubes, Milo. Told ya at camp, all food taste scrumptious. RAFFLES noticed something fishy going on during dinner. It was Arfan. He was looking sad and moody. And then we got to know the truth behind his sadness. *sigh* Pity Arfan. He cared for us and this is what he get in return. So fair!! ): Marx and Kai Yang had rice competition and those who lose had to clean up the toilet. HAHAHA. After dinner, pitch up tents and Bernice told RAFFLES some ghost stories on the stairs, under the stars and full moon which made us girls scream our lungs off. At night, i could not sleep since it was noisy and I cried. )':

4th Dec:
Last day was sad. We did our morning PT and it was tiring. I really think I could lose weight seh -.- Last activity was doing a tust fall but this time, we had to touch the bell. Glad that I could touch the bell! When it was Arfan's turn, he wish that he could get marry to his gf in 1 years time. AWWWW SO SWEEEET :D Best of lucks dear Arfan! Remember to invite RAFFLES to your wedding! Tehehehe. Clean up our stores and bid farewell to RAFFLES, Arfan, other watches and Ubin. So sad. Ubin/ OBS is gonna be my 3rd home now. ^^


UBIN & OBS ROCKS LIKE HELLA. So not regret joining this camp eventhough at first, I did abit. ABIT ONLY....



Alright. I am finally done. I need RAFFLES pictures!
