OTC CAMP IS SO SO SO OVER :D

WHEE.
say that you're happy for me!
cause i passed through the OTC CAMP!!!!
WAKAKAKA.

day1.
you know what happened as soon as we booked in?
tekan session.
pour out our bags except for clothes, put back in.
pour out again, put back in.
pour out again, put back in.
lol, kinda funny.
officers keep saying what 'nvm, you guys are selfish...' whatever whatever. it sounded real funny la, because everybody will know you're trying to spite us to do better. we're near officer standards ;)

then immediately.
IT'S TRIAGE.
i really got a shock.
cause my impression of triage was like, pulling us out at the middle of the night.
heng alpha is casualty team. so we went out.
paired up with Sierra's weiling.
she's J2 and she comes for OTC. SIAO AR.
and both of us got bitten by dogs :D i got left calf injury and two of her fingers got ripped off.
the funniest thing is, the triage case started cos dogs were chasing a group of hikers. LOL.
damn damn stupid. but triage is fun, i like first aid :)


was hike after that. damn tired then, don't know why.
1st two stations of hike were supposedly urban stations, but Tango decided to give nature a try.
we climbed slopes, cliffs, and everything i thought i could never climb and got our shoes all dirty with soil. haha. i'm so afraid of heights and we walked just on the edge of cliffs! my heart nearly came out. my physical geog teacher would be happy i did that and would ask me to take shots for her.

fastforward... ok reached the jelutong tower, i think it's spelt like that.
william sir, the dearest discipline officer gave us points on map and we were supposed to use our mapreading skills to navigate our way. LUCKILY, xinying damn pro. we managed to find one point but not the other. heh, BUT GOOD ENOUGH! we managed to make our way out of the jungle. xinying got the mapreading gold with honours badge endorsed by me! LOL.
ok, so all in all, we kissed nature during the daytime hike. whew.

soon it's night la!
OTC met in bukit timah hill and we ate dinner on the road there. took time out to bond with my group and ofcourse my dearest lardlard :)
ok disgusting, that stupid adelard.
all caught in photos! my god. officers are going to have a fun time looking at those gay moments.
if i got the photos, will post the nicer ones up k!

after dinner was the very very meaningful moment.
we climbed 4km of stairs and slopes.
not really that tough, but many can't tahan. dragged that shuyu all the way up.
stupid shu, you came so far and you shouldn't give up likedat.
really, the atmosphere is there. everybody was shouting like crazy. "JIAYOU OTC! ENDURE ENDURE! you can do it! do it good, once and for all!"
"G double O D J O B good job good job! good job good job!"
suddenly can feel the spirit of the whole course.
damn damn damn united, never seen this in my life.
tough times bring people working together.
:D
lol i think in total, we hiked for about 25km :)

the day ended when we got called out for fire drill when we were ready to sleep.
IT'S TRIAGE AGAIN. landslide case.
i was made the P1 IC.
my god, how suay can i be.
no helpers, and i was left alone to do CPR.
out of 20+ casualties, only 3 evacuated to ambulance. slow...
got so much comments and so much changes i would like to make, and god was indeed KIND to me the next day...

day2.
FINALLY, IT'S DAY2.
the low elements team building games were boring.
so was the high elements.
lol. sat around with guanwei and talked and talked and talked.
cause the whole Alpha division was in the activities together.
so glad guanwei was in Sierra, same division :)
then lunch time, so abrupt.
they call us to clean up the campsite.
they called Alpha and Bravo to go training shed to clean,
while Charlie went to the bastketball court.
so so so not right. Alpha was casualty for triage 1, Bravo was casualty for triage 2, and now Charlie went missing...
hmmm, the triage ICs duo comes from Bravo first, then Charlie... so it means.
all in all, it just meant that it's a funny plot to separate us from Charlie, while there's a triage and triage ICs duo most likely will come from Sierra and Tango.

and i was right. Azlan ordered by the DM to shout fire to Alpha and Bravo.
quickly assembled, and guanwei got tekaned like siao.
oh forgot to add, he's the Course IC for day 2.
then abruptly, sam sir read out the triage case.
it's a fire case this time round.
"so the triage IC from Sierra will be guanwei. and the triage IC from Tango [stares at me for one second] will be wenbin."
wa damn. i got a shock.
before i went to camp, i told myself a thousand times the last thing im gonna get for camp is triage IC. damn stressed and easliy-failed job. lol.
but since i'm with guanwei, heck care, I HUO4 CHU1 QU4 LE!
he got no voice at the time, so disadvantaged.
so immediately i just ordered all evat teams and firstaiders to the command post.
got lots of miscommunications from the start.
dismiss the evat team, called them back, dismissed them again, and called them back.
very messy.
but quickly we got the estimated amount of casualties-17-while in actual fact there's more than that.
but we can't care any further. the other 4 to 5 casualties all were unconscious and we do not have first aid supplies at all in the first place. so left them to die in the fire.
but in actual fact, we have first aid supplies and TOC materials once ambulance arrive. so panicky that both of us actually forgot. damn stupid! haha. but it's ok.
i thought we did a great job although the command post was chaotic. there's 3 hysterical patients, my tian.
the good thing is: we sent 15 out of 17 casualties to the ambulance! :D
GREAT JOB, although not that good, but i think me and guanwei are the best triage IC duo among the three. :D
good experience too, whew.

ok, after triage onwards, the rest are quite boring.
i only rmbed doing the lame dooga cheer with kahmeng for a thousand times. and campfire was a slight cockup.
got sentry duty from 4.30am to 6am. damn stupid. lardlard told us to walk around the campsite regularly, so me and hongyi walked around the whole of hometeam NS. saaw dogs and were scared. they bite ok. i dont want a real triage case. so we headed back after a while. in the end we just have to walk around their tents! stupid adelard, not clear in your instructions.
and dearest lard turns out to be course IC for last day. haha damn funny la him, and i wrote the officers' creed for him with my eyes half-close during sentry duty. yawn.

the next day [today] was best. telematch cancelled cause only 25 man remaining in camp.
we booked out of camp at 9am! WHEEE. :)

these few days were quite enjoyable.
reflected on why i came to this course, the discipline officer sure helps a lot in my thinking.
what makes me different from my cadets? why are you here suffering these torturings and torments when you are so old and mature only? you wanna quit halfway cause you THOUGHT you can't make it, and return to being a weak sgt, ssgt, or CL?
the discipline officer was kinda influential.

ohman, Tango although short-strengthed, was real cool.
infact the whole Alpha! we might be the smallest division, but i'm sure we are good!









MY TJC OTC BROTHERS!
kahmeng gave us names =.-
from left: kahmeng the kukunut, guanwei the hazelnut, and i'm gingko nut! lol.
