Photo Story 1

Once upon a time, there's a group of scouts.

They stumble upon a large bunch of wood and parangs.

Jia Fu says, "Look! I think I know how this works!"

Jezreel says, "I know, too!"

Chia Chang says, "Cheh, shaddap la. So easy." *omgsohard*
Jerald says, "Noob."

Bryan. "*uhh*"

Yit Weng says, "Wee, I can do this crap, too!"
Weng Seng says, "heehehe."

And they all live happily ever after.

King's Scout Pursuit

A Bow

Made this in two days. Ain't perfect, but it's working like how a bow should work, and it's quite deadly, too. =)

Basically it's crafted out of bamboo, strips of them. A main core bind with smaller pieces on the back and front with iron wires. (and duct tape too)


Handle made of old tv cables, and the main core wrapped up with a layer of old jeans. =)


As you see here, the bow isn't really in a curved shape, but after bending and more bending, the bow takes shape.

Cool, no? =)

(next up, a deadly crossbow)

Logbooks

As promised, a long post. The sucky stress (SPM) is over, but now, i have another stress to face. Logbooks, every scouts' worst enemy. I have five logs to be completed by the end of this week, under the supervision and guidance of SIR Jason Sim.

Log Jaya Diri - some log about the parliment and dewan rakyat yada yada and the flags.
Log Kegiatan - bout some event or some crafts made by myself.
Log Ekpedisi - to be done during the expedition itself.
Log Perkhidmatan - everything about first aid, police, and etc.
Log Kemahiran - everything else that a scout should know.

Darn. Writing this alone gives me the chills.



Other than that 5, there's still Keahlian, Usaha, Maju, Jaya, and 8 other logs to be completed by the end of the year. Awesome, no? =)

How can i forget to upload this. Sunburn!

The girls, after the march. Jocelyn, the celebrated one was being hidden in the crowd because she got enough attention by winning the best commander award for her category.

The guys, after march, won 2nd runner up.

Kawad Daerah 2009

Venue : Management and Science University, Shah Alam
Date : 19th April 2009
Participants : 17 schools, 44 platoons
Participants from 61st Petaling : 32 people

District march was yesterday, preparation started all the way back to 2 weeks before sports day. However, REAL practice started two weeks ago, a week after Sports day. We had about 2 weeks for practices, from kawad asas to formation.

Fortunately, we have Brian Lee

Sry brian, this was the only photo of you. xD

ANYWAYS, he's here to help us up with the marching formation and to bug us about everything else about kawad.

But we never really marched properly until we encounter these people.

The guys from Sekolah Menengah Agama Bestari.

On the Thursday before "D day", Pn Sasni brought us to the site to survey the marching court. And these people walked in out of nowhere and started marching.

Luckily, my camera have enough space to record some of these footage to show our people, and we were all pumped up and encouraged to march like them too. However, all we manage to change was our leg and hand movements. But that was enough to make the line good enough to win our school's sports day marching. (IF we ever get to turn the time back to a month ago.. gah).

This was the form 5s last marching event, and we wanted to make it memorable. Our troop leader, finally agreed to join us in this competition. (THX CHIA CHANG!!) And almost all the guys in my batch joined too.

We were thinking, "how to make it memorable? Make more noise? Or sing stupid songs?" (wei jie.. eish). But, the competition itself left a deep memory for us.

WE GOT 2ND RUNNER UP IN OUR CATEGORY

Yes, and unexpected victory for me and for my scouters and for everyone. Woah, I guess our marching skills aren't that bad after all.

TO ALL MY FAIR AND BELOVED GIRL SCOUTS,


Eventhough you aren't in this platoon, you too suffered with us under the sun, suffered enough mosquitoe bites for the year, fainted enough for a lifetime, (Shi Zhen, eish eish). Thank you for joining the BSMMs to march, eventhough you wouldn't get to hear my sweet and manly voice commanding you. Don't worry, you'll have another chance some other time. =)

Oh yea, for those who doesn't know what im talking about, we have to exchange members with the BSMMs, or the PBSMs (they changed their names to Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia) because we didn't have enough male members to make a platoon of 31 people, and they didn't have enough girls too.

Oh kay oh kay, getting on with the event, we left early to school yesterday morning, about 5 am, because many things not settled yet before the competition, formation, uniforms, paperworks, and etc etc etc and so on.

Left for MSU about 8 30am and reached destination 45 mins later. (Bus driver went detour around Shah Alam Stadium first before reaching MSU) The girl platoon was up second, so they were lucky, don't have to get stressed up like us, but they still have to stay under the sun. We went in around 12pm, and did our best. really hard to discribe the feeling inside the marching ring. Nervous plus stress, plus panic, plus all the above.

And about 1 30pm, the closing ceremony began.

When was announced as the 2ND RUNNER UP for kategori NGO(non government organisation) lelaki, me myself was astonished. Was it because there was no participants in this category? Or they were just playing a fool? Later I found out we didn't really suck that bad, (the hardwork actually paid off).

Also, I want to congratulate Jocelyn Tang Phiak Lin, or Joyce, or Ah Jo, or just Jo, for winning the BEST COMMANDER award for her category, (NGO Perempuan).

(No fair! I'm the one who lost my voice, not her! xD)

Afterall, everyone won something, and I've learnt a new catch phrase..

OH YEA!

Unfortunately, the police cadets was disqualified from the competition because they don't have enough members to form a platoon of 31 people.

ANYWAYS, photos and videos will be posted real soon, because blogger is working really really slow now, couldn't post the pictures, and i have to rush to sleep.

Anyways, remember,

OH YEA!

The Pass Weeks

Kinda lazy to update for the pass week because of various camps and other agendas going on. However, picture speaks a thousand words. So, 'read' the pictures.

After watching Dragonball Preview at 1U.

The BSMM (formerly PBSM) had their camp last weekend, so we were invited to assist them in their camp. Meanwhile, during our free time( mostly all of the time) we had a camp bed fever! xD
