Biology Showcase had just ended last Monday and everything turned out to be fine. At least most of the students - including myself - got to check our own health status.

I love camps, I simply love camps. It's been quite some time since I last camped with the Boys in BB. Last 2 Saturdays, I was asked to stay over-night in the Band Camp as "an officer" just to oversee the Boys so that everything is in order. I hesitated a little because I do not have holidays like most of the school dudes do. However, I agreed to stay in one night.
It was only a 24 hours stay for me, all in all. I felt different this time round. I do not feel the burden that I used to have when I was an NCO. May be that's because the NCOs had been well prepared. I worked more with the Recruits in the camp: helped Daniel in teaching them basic band drill, teach Target award class, teman them for games and more games. As for the Seniors side, I only did marched past with them.
When I look at these newbies in the camp, I saw myself 6 years ago, when I first attended the Boot Camp. I shared with the Recruits on my experience in Boot Camp. I remembered CPL Chan Kian Wing was the camp commandant, I remembered Addison was the one sleeping beside me during Boot Camp, I remembered which corner I slept, I remembered one of my friends got caught with a BB Gun, I remembered I asked my seniors why do we need to polish our uniform parts again since we had polished it last week, I remembered Mr. Liew Hoi Kiet was the Recruitment officer, I remembered that he also helped me to cut the hole on my field service cap, I remembered another friend of mine cried after the "night drill" torture, I remembered...
Just too many. Just too memorable.
I am definitely looking forward to more camps that are on the list.
Yes, I am a "campaholic"!
