The Sunny MiZ 14: NDP CCR 2

29 May 2005
Have to wake up very early in the morning to have our breakfast in the cookhouse. Well, the breakfast was nothing really special, just bread and hard-boiled egg (which I don't really eat anyway). After having our breakfast, we went to load the stores into the tonner.

After reaching Tuas, we unload some of the stores to the command post, set up the public address system and also put the manpack sets there. Well, as they did not want too many people in the command post (and also I lost my job because someone didn't trust me at all), I was asked to wait at the resting area when the rehearsal started.

Well, I waited in the resting area, looking at all those vehicles driving past the road. Almost fell asleep while observing the rehearsal. Didn't do anything much there as I afraid that I might get caught by those higer ranks coming to the resting area to drink water.

Hmm... anyway, lunch was great (it was Western lunch by the way), considering the fact that the cookhouse don't always cook such nice food. As we had our lunch, it started to rain, so we went to the canteen to have our lunch there to be sheltered from the rain. We waited until 2.45pm, just before the next rehearsal start.

After going back there, I decided to go to where HH was standing, where he cued the people on the vehicles to cut the saluting, as I felt quite bored in the resting area. Did make some conversation with him to kill a bit of boredom.

Dinner was somewhat ok. Well comparing to the dinner we usually had in the cookhouse while in camp, it was definitely much better. Hmm... I wonder why they can't cook better food while we were in camp... Ok, after dinner, there was one more rehearsal before we could end the day.

After the last rehearsal ended, we quickly packed our stores into the tonner and waited inside there before going back to camp. When we reached camp, we quickly pack the stores into the room and left the vehicular sets in the rover to let other people to dismount them on Monday. We then booked out of camp after that.

Hmm... kind of sad that I have to miss 3 violin lessons because of NDP CCR. Well, never mind about that, I had missed 1 month of piano lessons last time because of O levels (I had paid for that month school fees by the way). Well, I think, when I start to go back for my violin lessons, I will have a lot of things to catch up with...
