NPCC Sec 1 camp: Day 1

Last Friday, which is supposed to be our EP3 day, was a special day for all NPCC cadets. We were going to have our sec 1 camp! I was very excited as it was going to be my first time staying outside home.

Also, during the camp, we will have our first ever 'Solo Night'. If you do not know what that is, it is a time at night that we sit alone at a specific place and not move around. Many of the squad mates were very frightened.

Lets talk about it later. For that day, we were first split into two groups, each was given one classroom to put our things and sleep for the night. Fortunately, most of my good friends were in the same group as me. After that, we had the UIG games and we played the 'war game'.

Let me tell you what is it like.
First, we were asked to take of our socks. Done. Next, we were asked to tie it around one of our arms.YUCK!!! For my group, we were supposed to tie on our right arm. So the game goes like this: we must first have a king.
For the first round, our king was someone called Terence, whom I think is a sec 3. Once we untie a person's sock from, his arm, he is considered out and 'dead'.
The first round was chaotic. Our king 'died before I knew where he went. So we started a second round. Although our team was seriously outnumbered(I think was by 2 times;NOT FAIR!!!), we were quite organised and I 'killed' two enemies. However, the third time was not so lucky. two people surrounded me and I ran here and there to prevent getting caught. However, One of them caught me and in the struggle, I tripped over something and fell onto the side of the drain I was taken away by CI Jin Kang and rested for a while so I do not know which team won. But in my own opinion, I think we lost. after that, we had a short game of water bomb cause we ran out of time. Then we had our survival cooking.

I grouped up with my friends Soo Wee and Chun Qi. We were very supportive and I was proud with the teamwork we displayed. I cooked for them and they cleared up the mess.
Wonderful! Lets not waste too much time talking about this. I want to share my experience during Solo Night.
Just tell you what we did after dinner in a short way.
We had a tower-building competition which my team came in second, then we had a bath, and practised on some cheers.

I forgot when our solo night started, but our seniors told us many ghost stories before we started and many of the people were terrified. Even I was a bit frightened. I may share some of the ghost stories next time. We were given a code:'Spongebob Squarepants' for the night to prevent being mistaken for a ghost.

My solo night was spent below a staircase near the library. At first I was quite scared and stuttered at every noise. Dreadful. My mind keep flashing with the ghost stories I heard. However, after half an hour I think, my mind settled down and I felt very very sleepy. After time which seemed like eternity. I heard the familiar voice ' spongebob' .

The Solo night ended.
We went to sleep at about 3 am.Ahhh...
