Had been a while, a month. Really had alot of work to complete, some still in the process, World Literature Essay, Theory of Knowledge Essay, Extend Essay(4000 words research essay), Physics IA, Econs commentary, Art sketchbook and paint and lastly my Individual Oral Commentary (IOC)....all of which WILL contribute to my final IB grade
13th-15th Feb: Scouts Recruit and Ventures Survival Camp...I was bumming bumming around...
Went back for fun- I didn't really do much there except following people around,  just sitting down and watching people and occasionally helping to run errands. But it's good to be back there once a while and look back at past memories, nothing but reflections. :) Went into the jungle for a short while on the 13th and 14th, all for the fun, saw the miserable faces of those sec 4s who were going through the survival camp....all the rolling in the mud, water rationing(2L for 3 days) and of course limited food, no proper shelter and toilets and no bathing for 3 days. Did not want to stay over night in there, or else that will have been my 3rd time doing so. This recruits camp was really huge, with close to 90+ recruits(didn't really count)+ the sec 2s and 3s. Even the Primary school Scouts were present. Those little brats were cute but horrible....RIGHT JANSEN! CUB SCOUT LEADER FOR 2 DAYS. Running around, complaining, asking stupid questions and lastly punching people. Haha!

27th Feb-1st March- Founders' Day
Anglo-Chinese School's 123rd Anniversary. My last official school founders' day celebration. Celebrations are practically the same every year, speeches, prize presentations, performances the end. What's missing here in ACS(International) is the parade by the uniform groups:)

27th Feb- ECP beach cleaning
LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF LITTER LEFT BEHIND...GOSH! ALL THE POLLUTION! POOR ENVIRONMENT! SAVE THE EARTH!!!!!

NO OBS-
I'm didn't go for OUTWARD BOUND SCHOOL this year. Went once when I was in sec 3. Had an awesome time there with the best group. All UYOs except..uhhmm one. Paid only $360.
This time round, had I gone for it, I would be paying, $650, a reduced cost after a subsidy from the school(otherwise $800).  See the difference! Why would I want to pay so much more to do almost similar activities which I have done before, plus they are nothing new. Oh please! Gosh!
No Thanks! Then again it's year 6, with all the work, no way am I going to waste my time doing those stuff again after years as a scout...all the team work...blah blah blah. Enough! Furthermore, I thought it will be useful for me to spend that 5 days to complete all my work before flying off on my holiday which will span over the entire march holz. Hope those who went there had fun....+ it was raining. PRACTICAL PLANNING! WONDERFUL!
 
Okay time to go, in a few hours time, I will be flying off to the land of a billion people! Won't be present at scouts investiture unless I'm back on time. Sorry Friends, leaders and scouts! :( Have fun! Oh Reuben! This is a reminder, please don;t forget to pass on the heirloom. Thanks!
