| --CPR 152-- |
First day, I reached the place. duh. lol. Got my CPR number
and a space slightly bigger than a car park for my kem kraf.
I had a partner too, And the space was dang small for two -.-
So after 3 rounds of walking back and forth for my stuff to my campsite which was dreadfully tiring... I managed to move in to my new home.lolz.An area by the lake which is damn far from the main building. I got package B, which means I'm suppose to build a menara, pagar,meja makan, bendera and dapur.I had insufficient bamboo.lol.
tip no.1- put your stuff as near to your campsite as possible when you arrive to the place.Or you'll regret it -.-
I brought my whole house to camp.Like literally.
Next, I started raising my bed, I managed to get it up right before midnight.x)
My partner on the other hand had trouble raising her bed and chose to sleep on the ground for the night. Could have finished my bed earlier but somehow it seems like loads of people don't know how to light up a gas lamp.I had to stop whatever I was doing for 4 times to teach people how to light up a gas lamp.lolz. Not complaining but it was seriously very inconvenient to leave your knots half tied and bamboo hanging in the air .
tip no 2. - help people out. but remember to finish off your knot before you head over and start your tutoring session.
We were ordered to sleep by midnight and no more construction allowed. So i slept like a mummy till morning, it was my first time making my own bed and sleeping in it. *so dang proud*
note* bamboos in my school got burned, so i wasn't able to practice. Moving on, the next day was also a half day camp craft session . I finished off my tempat teduh and decided to lie on my bed to weave the leaves for my tempat teduh. My bed is higher than my waist line , why did I make it that high?
That very place flooded during my perkhidmatan camp , I have proof :P
Though no harm done, My tent was floating when I reached my tent and my supplies were dry x)
While I was weaving the leave and falling asleep halfway because it was too hot to get out of the shade of my bed. * everyone was working under the sun, I decided to work smart :P* right when i decided to take a power nap, I heard the announcement :
"CPR 152, SILA DATANG KE DEWAN SEKARANG"
me: whuttttt? nearly fell off mah bed ,grabbing my tongkat and running to the dewan.lolz.
they wanted me to choose between my model perintis which I poster in prev post and my knots chart.You'll see the chart in a vid later on. So I chose my model since I used up my hols just to finish it where else the knot's chart just took me a day. After that I answered loads of questions on the way on why I got called for, lolz. When I got back to my campsite, I saw someone curled up underneath the tripod of my bed ._. *awesome spot since it's shaded by my fly sheet x)* so I walked closer, so there sat my partner all sweat and tears as she grip her phone tightly. yep ._. .. she's sick. lol
I accompanied her to the main hall and was ordered to go back and continue what I was doing. lolz, Her friend from her school and I decided to finish off her bed for her so she'll have somewhere to rest when she comes back. Then I finished my flagpole, so proud of it xD It was like the only one standing continuously without falling in my area ~~
After raising my flag, A few pentaraf came with my partner, turns out she is moving away.To a place with more shade. So everyone helped her with her stuff, her bed is moved away too . After moving her stuff, I felt sad and happy at the same time. I lost a partner.. but on the bright side I got a bigger space for my camp craft.Seriously hoped she gets better.
We had exams ,exams and exams the following days. My advice, listen to your scouter and never ignore their advice and teachings. like seriously. there was a fried rice exam, hahaha, my friend told me my fried rice looked like japanese fried rice xD And then marching exam. Which went well even though I got the strict pentaraf. Moving on would be backwoods cooking, my rice didn't cook.. oh joy..
The day ended with knots test and interview by group. I spent the whole night digging holes and making my fence. Why the whole night? I had rock floors -_- sand and rocks. You can literally see sparks forming when your digger hits the rock.And when you finally have a hole, you just put the sliced bamboo in and start doing piling. What piling? Its called layering rocks, sand, rocks ,sand and then hitting the rock into the ground to make it more packed. I built a side door since if i built a back door it leads to the lake. lolz.
tip no.3 -have determination
A bunch of other exams, bla bla bla. lol. I didn't have to cook much during camp. I had awesome neighbors and petaling mates never seem to cook just a small portion of food x)
But bear in mind that the deed is to be returned, help other whenever they are in need. I called my camp mates "bangla" since they walk around with a towel on their head and do construction xD* no offense to bangla's out there * I made like 6 hard boiled eggs the following morning, and when it cooled down. I kinda went " hoi, para bangla, marilah dapatkan telur ko" xD so friggin' funneh.
Everyone was like laughing at my statement. Thank god everyone looks much more cheered up xD
Since my partner was unwell and lost her voice, I automatically became the PL throughout the whole camp when she can't make it. I think the only thing i'm good at is making people laugh, hahaha~ one of my friend was like : idk how to be like you weyh.. you always look so cheerful and laughing .
me: ._. easy, ask your mom to name you after happiness x)
lolz. moving on.... MALAM KEBUDAYAAN. it was fun x) i danced with my pals from 131 petaling. even tho we gt some moves wrong here and there, the pentarafs were impressed with our spirit xD they said we damn "ceria" , to be honest we were having Fun xD
tip no.4 - just enjoy and have fun :)
my meja makan,kerusi and an awesome view.
My bed~ so nice to sleep in xD ~~~~~~~~~~
Can you see my pink cup anywhere????????
my menara and knot's chart. I hung there for fun
