King Scout Camp - The Chronicles Of Sleep-less 3 Days 2 Nights ( Part Tres)

Sunday 17-4-2011, 12.45am
When I was resting peacefully inside my semi-auto 3-man-tent, Ah Hoi came to wake me up and told me that tuan called my number to go to the dewan. Immediately, I rushed to the dewan, only to found out tons of participants already arrived and were listening to a speech. As I crept closer, the tuan saw me and asked me why I've came. The tuan were gathering all 67 participants who failed their Taraf Perkhemahan, including Kind Beam and Ayam Kok Kok, and me obviously. ( screw you Rak Kasut! ) We were warned and ordered to finish our gadgets before 8.00am in the morning.

After I went back to my campsite, I drank my 2nd can of Nescafe and continued to work. First, I beautify my Fence. Afterwards, I completed my Table & Chair in about 2 and 1/2 hour, as there were whole bunch of platforms for me to tie, and I was lacking of bamboos at that time, so I was forced to go back and forth to Squarehead's campsite to acquire the bamboos I needed. ( ACS dumped their bamboos beside his campsite ). Then, I used about 1 hour to finished the platforms on my Tools Rack. By dawn, I tried to complete my Main Gate, but unfortunately I faced several technical difficulties. As luck would have it, I've only able to put on a temporary gate which will make everyone laugh... I then built a Rope Rack, hoping it will give me good bonus marks....

In the morning, we were called to the Dewan for istiadat, but they didn't tell us whether we should be ready for Taraf Perkhemahan. My campsite was quite neat, except for the Bamboo Rack position due to incompleteness. We took our tongkats and went for Istiadat Bendera as usual, and as I predicted the tuans were going to inspect our campsite without the participant, alone. Well that's great news for me, cuz I didn't prepare my layout and there's heck lot of stuffs in my tent. Oh well, fate, I'm doomed. We entered the Dewan for Taklimat CPR by Tuan Wazer. CPR = Calon Pengakap Raja, and not the normal CPR (PC) taklimat we thought it will be. We spent almost an hour squirming under the scorching hot sun, listening to someone's snore and laughing at someone's snort. *Rhythm!*

After that, we went back to our campsite to packed our personal things. Tuan Faruiq called us pondans and urged us to move faster. We didn't even have the time to take photos together. Subsequently, we were ordered to take down our gadgets and tie them up, which most of the Sam Tets and I didnt follow, and throw them to the far back from our campsites. Burn burn bamboos burn, how more environmental-friendly can a scout be? At 1.00pm, we went back to the Dewan for Istiadat Bendera (again!), then we were permitted to go home, finallyyyyY!!! En Latib and En Amir came at 12.00 noon, and the lorry came at 2.00 pm. We arrived back at SMJK Poi Lam at 3.30pm. I went home earlier that day ( only after I moved all the mangroves back to bengkel and grouped all my tools together ), and Kopitiam took a ride to The Store, excusing that he needs to go to his auntie's house, but the reality is that he went to meet with his girlfriend. Lame, poor, awful, terrible excuse. Die.

The end. Comment if you like. I don't care anyway.

King Scout Camp - The Chronicles Of Sleep-less 3 Days 2 Nights ( Part Beta)

16/4/2011 Saturday - 6.00am
6am til 8am was rush hour for every participant, as we were all busy giving the final touch to our gadgets. I really made a bad decision last night for completing the gadgets in a anti-clockwise position, causing 2 of my main gadgets to be incompleted. Luckily, the whole time I was cutting off overlong jute rope of knots from my gadgets, hence I saved heck lot of time in the morning cuz I don't need to clean up my campsite. By 8.30am, the tuans have arrived for inspection. Ayam Kok Kok, Slippers & I were the last participants to receive inspection. Our penguji was Tuan Segas ( or Tuan Segar, either one ). He was a very strict inspector and I like it. He even lift up Ayam's Main Gate cuz it's too loose and utterly destroyed Ayam's Table cuz it's incomplete. That stupid chicken get scolded even more as he put his jute rope at his Hanger.His response when tuan called his number was also very lousy. Later when it's Slipper's turn, he passed it without any difficulties. Then when it's my turn, I was praised for my creativity and my voice, but was critisized for not completing my Shoe Rack & Table. After that, a chinese tuan came to my tapak and told me I sure will fail my Taraf Perkhemahan as it's 20 marks for Table and 15 more marks for a simple Shoe Rack.....

After that, we were required to bring along our tongkat with us for Istiadat Bendera. Our first ujian for that day was Sambat Balik, Sambat Mata & Wogel. The 10 patrols were divided into 2 groups; 1-5 first group, 6-10 second group. For the woggle test, I get 20 marks due to the time I spent on tightening my woggle. Subsequently, I received 2 marks for every box in the test sheet for my Sambat Balik & Sambat Mata after three tries ( too ugly, so i remake ). Our next test is the shame in my scouting life... I failed to make a Bushman's Thong by the 60-min time limit... My mind was completely blank when I was taking that test... I done perfectly well before going to PR Camp, I just don't know what gotten up to me... Kenny and I were the only two Chinese to fail the Bushman's Thong test....

Afterwards, we were given 20 mins rest. My mood was completely down after the Bushman's Thong test, watching all the participants wearing it while I still remained with the Rambu Kuning. Nonetheless, I was the first person to complete the Ikatan & Simpulan test, and did quite well for the Kawad Tongkat test. Later on the Temuduga Kumpulan & Temuduga Individu test was a breeze owing to my a-okay BM. Around dusk, we, Sam Tet and ACS were busy training for the Tarian Tradisional test in the night. We were the first group to perform that night, and the test took up 2 hours. Almost every dance team chose Joget or Dabus for their performance. I was asked to videotape SY and ACS performance, and I gave some embarrassing critics which were then recorded down in the video, my sincere apologies... Afterwards, we were permitted to go back our campsite and continue our progress on our gadgets~~~

King Scout Camp - The Chronicles Of Sleep-less 3 Days 2 Nights ( Parte Uno )

Day1 - Friday 5.00am

After one whole sleepless daybreak of Zapin music searching and and preparation, I had only 2 hours of sleep b4 waking up for school. I let Ah Loong waited me for 15 minutes in front of my door because I'm too slow at packing my stuffs. Alas, I've only managed to take all my stuffs out to our doorstep and was forced to leave them there cuz I was lacking of time.

Once I've arrived at school, I'm suprised to find out that Ah Hoi was present to school that day, as he sweared the day before that he won't be coming to school on that day. The lessons before recess were torturing and I cant sleep as the teachers were not the oh-okay-I'll-let-u-sleep-peacefully type of teacher. After recess, I came out to continue my preparation for King Scout Camp. I passed my logbooks and Borang PR to Squarehead so that he can take it to Pn Loh for her signature. While I'm preparing for my gadgets ( Dapur, Tiang Bendera, Rak Lampu... ), Mr Chicken and Ah Hoi were busy equipping their PC boxes and completing their logbooks.

2.00pm
The lorry promised to arrive by 2.00pm, but we have to wait till 2.45pm for its arrival. After finished loading all of our stuffs, we took Mr.Amir's ( school staff ) van with Pn Loh and set out for Bota Kiri. However, all 5 of us fell asleep on the van, causing us to be lost in the forest of Parit for one hour before arriving at our destination. Unfortunately, the pendaftaran had started and we were late. ( Yee Wai Leong's name is called right after we get out of the van, haha ) Then, we changed into our uniforms promptly and rush to the dewan, only to be stopped by a tuan by the fence, asking whether we hav our PR checklist with us. Obviously, we hav not gotten this stupid checklist whatsoever, so we rushed back and forth to the lorry ( parked at the gate btw ) to get our tongkat, PC box and green flag. Still, we lacked of many many stuffs, for example kraftangan, hurricane lamp, surat kebenaran sekolah, rambu ayam etc... Bad luck... Later, we passed up our logbooks and PC Box and sat down for the taklimat kem. ( Squarehead and Kopitiam borrowed someone's hurricane lamps, no brotherhood punya fkers )

5.00pm
I received my No Peserta, which is 096 and went back to line up in the dewan. Well what a shock, there's only 106 participants this year and the tuan informed us that there wont be any exams in the first day, so we can go back to finish our gadgets after the taklimat ended. He also told us that Taraf Perkhemahan will be on the 2nd day, and not on the 3rd day, change in exam style!!! Afterwards, we were divided into 10 patrols, I'm in patrol 8 with Woon Chin Yeong. Back in my campsite, we were forced to move all our thiungs to the furthest campsite, same with Sam Tet cuz we late in receiving our No.Peserta. TLT and Squarehead those two lucky bastards were given permission to build their campsite near the Pintu Masuk cuz there's no campsite left in the backrow. The time was dusk when I finally finished moving all my items.

First night
For the entire night I didnt sleep, and I've completed my Tent, Penyidai, Rak Peribadi, Rak Senjata, Rak Lampu, Rak Makanan and Tiang Bendera before dawn. I drinked Nescafe and continue to chat with Ayam and Ah Hoi to stay awake. All this time my gadgets have far more knots to complete compared to others, so my progress was growing slower and slower, while Ah Hoi was getting faster & faster. At 6.00am til 8.00am, I completed my temporary pagar and temporary pintu.

Admission To Shaolin Temple!

Haha bald to school for the first time, luckily no one gave bad comments on my shiny huge head~ many commented on the barber's skill, saying it good or not. However, all of them said that my head already counted as number 1, and not number 3, cuz it's too short...


Some people intentionally came to touch my head just for the sake of fun, meh I wont care bout it, bald head is nice what :D *Some ppl also call me cute o.o*

Day 2 Of Rebirth~

Today sure was a memorable day, since so much happened today, letmeh list it out for my own reference

1. Class photo shoot
As usual, I'm in the first few spot as I'm so freaking short, no big surprise here... But while we were arranged into our position, I found out that my spot was the same as year 2009, with Hock Wah by my left and Kliff by my right. Coincidence or fate... or destiny? Then, after our normal photoshot, we asked for a candid. As we were posing for the candid, the stupid photographer ( Botak Tan Lai Thiam by the way ) has shot us by the count of 2... As a result, he was boo-ed by all of the 5S1 students, serve him right!

2. Scout photo shoot
After being called out on the first lesson after recess, we waited for our turn bout an hour. When we were ready with all our poses, Mr.Lim used a very harsh tone to order us to search for Mr.Lau ( He was listening to a phonecall at nowhere ). So RottenOrange and LanSH immediately went to find him, while those Brass Band members just gonna stand there and watch us suffer... For the next few minutes, Mr Lim continued to rush and pseudo-scold us because of Mr Lau's disappearance... Finally when Mr Lau reappeared, Mr Lim promptly changed his facial expression and tone, Oscar Nominee for Best Face-Change! However, we need to wait for our turn cuz Brass Band's first -_- Thank you very much, my dear frens for helping us ( duh! ) 4 serious photos and no candids, sucks... 41 members ( including AJKs ) attended this photoshot

3. Botak!
Finally after one whole day of questions, I shaved my hair bald! From now on the 49th Kinta Scout Troop will be officially named as the Botak Troop! hahaha
