TODAY IS OC! Okay i shall post on that in a later part.

Today, we had to go for this movie screening thingy for humanities thingy. The movie is called Billy something. It's about a boy who was forced to learn boxing, but he was more interested and more pro in ballet, but his father don't allow him to learn cos he thinks it is sissy, then all the stuff abouthim learning ballet, then he go royal school of ballet, then at the end he jump very high. Then in the show, he got this gay friend, gay in the show is called poof!..amazing, then the gay friend went to kiss him, and wear dress. And got this horny girl who wants to have sex with him, not joking, then she ask him if he want her to show him her fanny..don't ask me what that is. And the show got manny f*cks(censored)..i mean the word! not the..nevermind. And all the sec3s were talking about are those, and the poofs, damn immature lar, and jingkai became so pissed cos of them.

After the movie screening, we went to canteen to eat some light stuff before going to salt centre to change. Then..they showed us a sample map of bctc and gave me the compass and whistle which were totally fei. Then..when we were gonna set off, they said..we're gonna take 852, then we laughed cos like very anti climax. heh.

When we reached there, we were supposed to assemble. And we walked past the victoria people, whom we beat last year, then the teacher officer said look at those monkeys, do me a favour and whoop their asses. In the end dunno what happened to them. Then got the light snack, which was an apple and some sandwiches but we didn't want to eat right before the competition, so we gave to ncos and ncos said where's sam. So niao lol. So we had to fill up this safety form thingy, and then one of the things is that we had to sleep 7 hours before the competition, and joash slept at 12, stupid joash, play until so late! No wonder you cannot chiong. And we couldn't submit the form cos our teacher officer was not there to sign it. Okay then he arrived, so we registered, got our tags and sat down. I was 92!

Then..we waited..and waited, and then they will like call which district send up how many teams to go register for the routes. And it was like they call the west district send one team, then the sirs busy talking, shyh horng go ask them, they say don't have, of course lar they never hear..pffft. In the end, we were assigned to route d dammit. We wanted route c so that if we win 3 times in a row then can keep the plaque. Stupid sirs, go die. Then, we quickly plot the map! And we took the map out of the..plastic thingo. Then we go safety briefing! But we don't care just continue plotting. We did all this cos we thought we would have an advantage. In the end, they had these 3 minutes for us to go plot the map with a master map which has all the checkpoints, go die. After that we went to wait at the holding point for our detail's turn to go.

Okay, basically it's like, there are..6 routes. Route a, b c...f. And each route has a number of details, which are the teams lar, and the details are released in intervals of 3 minutes. Then..it was our turn! So she pressed the horn thingy and i started the timer for my watch! HA! I remembered to start the watch timer unlike the previous oc team -coughs- Then each team is given a map and a scoresheet with the six checkpoints, each checkpoint has a clue to where it is, and then we had to punch a certain patter for each checkpoint and also write a code. The scoring system is, 10 points for each of the 6 checkpoints, and bonus points for every minute we're early from 1 hour. Total was 100 points.

At the end we had to get back quickly, was gonna exceed 20 minutes already, means cannot get full marks, but i just told them haven't yet so they would chiong. While running back we saw ncos, and jing kai lol. But joash was like, cannot chiong, must be play too much then sleep too late. So we went back, total took 25mins39, counted as 26 for the scoring, total 94 points.

While queing up to submit the scoresheet, ri was in front, and i saw they got 94 points also, but couldn't see the time, which means they got all 6 checkpoints, and 25mins something also. We were damn sad lar, cos we were not sure if we lost. So everyone went to emo, and eat the high tea thingy. The nugget was nice..so random. We were quite sure that ri and us were the highest, seeing that other teams were walking throughout. Then ncos helped us to go check, cos there's this board with the list of all the details and their timings, but no schools, so they went to the ri people and said, we're from detail 18, and the ri people told them their detail, and they went to check the timing. Then they went to check, and told us we were 4 seconds faster! So we were quite relieved lar, but not 100% win.

During the prize presentation, we were anxiously waiting for our route. Then..route d! Third place..some school. Second place..raffles institution! Then we were like so happy, and shyh horng cheered so loud everyone stared at us. Then first place..hwa chong institution! Muahahaha. So we went up to receive the medals, then jingkai being the last person got to hold the plaque. After that we went down to take photos. And yongle wanted to do spastic smile, but we don't want, and jingkai thought we were doing, so he went to do lol. So happy =D We won! We didnt't screw it! Somehow it's like deja vu, last year oc was also like..they thought they were gonna lose, but in the end they won.

Then we walked back to yio chu kang mrt to take 852 back to school. And jingkai bought us drinks hohoho. Then joash spilled his drink on the bus aosijdgaionsiodf. We went back to school, took more spastic photos! Okay only 2. And ncos congratulated us. Then i went home. Reached home like 8? Feeling hungry but happy =D Then i ate dinner very fastly heh.

Yesyes oc! Come back and see the plaque. We kept our promise, "the plaque will be back on the shelf in a few days time" Good job! =D Thanks to all who wished us good luck! Though our plan to scam the part until the rest of them come back from obs, then we tell them we won, is failing lol. All the sacrifices we made were worth it, holiday trainings..morning runs..

24.10.2007 a day to remember, the day we won oc. 50% complete, next 50% is to ensure the next oc team wins as well, jiayou!
