hey

I’m seriously exhausted, although I don’t behave like I am in school. No, not due to poly life, maybe just because I’m attending NPCC Cadet Inspector course every Saturdays, and yes, that’s why i am/was botak-ed. Okay, lets talk about that.

The training is quite hectic, having to attend lectures on lesson-planning, drills, History of NPCC, etc. We also have to do drills, campcraft, orienteering sessions to make sure we are ultra sure what we’re going to teach the kids in our respective units back in secondary schools. I say its hectic cos the overall mood for the entire course (which stretches all the way till mid-june) is strict. Strictly strict. Although the rule in NPCC now is not to give physical punishment, they give it the other way round, mentally. They shout at you, scolding for the slightest mistake which of course if you do something wrong. You basically just have to be strong inside. Okay, maybe not strong, just take it properly, cos after all I bet NS is way worser. The every saturday trainings is from 8am-6pm and i live in tampines. I have to wake up at 4am just to get ready cos the journey to HTA  ( Home Team Academy ) takes exactly 2 hours. By the time it finishes, i would be so tired and i only get to have proper rest on the whole of Sunday. 

I bet you guys are wondering why the heck faz even wana go to this kind of thing cos after all NPCC is so a secondary school thing. Well, not to me. You see, I was the highest ranking cadet back then, i received numerous awards both school and national level. I too thought all that would’nt help me one bit for my future. I was so wrong. I kind of screwed my ‘O’s, all thanks to mathematics and science and i swear i thought there was no chance of me going to a poly. Then, I applied for the JPSAE admission in which i got through successfully all thanks to not just because of my background in art but also NPCC. I had an A1 for CCA and the awards i received impressed the interviewers i guess. You have no idea how thankful i am. So, me going back to NPCC is just the thing for me to do to repay them back. Although its hectic and everything, I think its just the right thing. After all, that would mean I can go back to my secondary school and teach the kids and! i would be wearing the No. 1 uniform for the graduation ceremony of the CI course! i have been wanting to wear this for ages!

For those who don’t know what that is, it looks like this.

 

haha.these are my seniors by the way.

 

I’m worried if we are gona have projects anytime soon cos for the 2 weeks school break I’m gona be away from civilisation. I have camps from the CI course to attend to for both weeks. So if we do have projects, i would be screwed.

ok, i wana eat now.

take care people.
