The Sunny MiZ 15: NDP CCR 3

05 Jun 2005
We had to wake up very early in the morning as we need to load the stores into the tonner. After doing so, we then had our breakfast in the cookhouse. Well, they served "Lor mai kai" for breakfast, which was quite rare for cookhouse breakfast (though they served those quite often for nightsnack). Well, at least it was much better than the previous week breakfast. After that, we then load the tonner and went to Tuas.

Over there, we had to unload the stores and set up a tentage for ourselves. As KQ fell ill early in the morning (before we got up to load tonner), Ben had to take over KQ for safety rover. Well, for that case, I had to take over Ben for videocamera. Hmm... as that was the first time I was handling that videocamera, I had to asked ZL how to use it. ZL then also told me what was Ben's job as the videocamera personnel, which was to take the vehicles turning at the end of a stretch of road. As I was not really sure what to take, I looked across at Daniel to see what he did, and follow what he did as well. Ok, that was what I did when I was taking photographs during the photo outing for CCA when I was in JC, I followed what my teacher-in-charge did, and did the same thing (that's what my senior taught me). Well, my photographic society teacher-in-charge was extremely good at photography, that's no wonder why he could be an Art Elevtive Programme (AEP) teacher.

Well, lunch was catered by outside caterer. Well, the quantity was somewhat small, and some people had to eat more than 1 share to fill their stomach (well, there were quite a lot of extra food by the way). We then take a rest before continuing with the next rehearsals.

When it came to the 2nd rehearsal, my videocamera battery died halfway while I was filming, so I had to stopped doing so. After the rehearsal, some people including me had a short break at the canteen. After that, I then asked HJ and Victor to charge he battery for me. I then decided to rewrite the 2nd rehearsal, since the tape was somewhat limited.

The 3rd rehearsal was long as the RSM was there to "teach" people how to salute properly. I had to stand under the hot sun for soooooooooo loooooooooong, my legs were tired... After the rehearsal, we decided not to film for the next rehearsal.

We managed to pack our stuffs and leave just before 9pm, as the RSM wanted to conduct 2 more rehearsals after our dinner, and 1 was for the saluting part... Well, the thing could have ended much earlier if there was only just 1 more rehearsal... wonder what the RSM could be thinking...

Anyway, we managed to reach back camp at about 9.30pm, and kept all our stores in the tonner before 10pm. Well, at least we still managed to book out earlier than the previous week. Took my father car back home. After reaching back home, I decided to sleep as I felt really tired after all the day work in Tuas...
