Pengawas Camp 2009

Final Day at last..


I saw that we had woken up rather late 2day, around 7 30am, compared to 4 am yesterday. That night i slept very well. I then realised how important sleep is 2 us. My leg was aching 4 2 days straight and every step took a lot of effort. But after just one night of sleep, my legs felt less sore and painful. I love sleep hehe..

We did the same thing as b4 and the food was no better, sigh..I thought 2day would be another tiring and @#$%$# day,with the jungle trek to a waterfall, no running water 4 a shower which i desperatly need.., and a few more complains, but this day would be made memorable by a certain someone, i wont tell so ull have to wait hehe...

As we set up 4 the trek, i wondered how long it would be.. The comanders said we will only climb 5 hills only, thats not very long.. As we started the journey, i tried to keep track of progress. Hill num 1, not so bad a bit steep though, check. Hill 2, puff puff check. Hill 3, whhhaaat!!, i thought we passed the 4th one already, check... Hill 4, oh i givee uupp.. hill 5, i never thought i could speak such flowery words hehe..check. Mountain 1, What the @#$%$#.. u never said there was a mountain !!!check CHECK CHECK! My swimmer friend Chow Kuan, wasnt even sweating !! Amazing.. He must be really fit..I felt so small and weak,even the comanders were amazed.. 

At long last, the waterfall. It was more of a water flow than waterfalling.. There was a long rock wall with water flowing at an angle downwards, a bit dissapointed.. But the water was just the same as the river, nice, cooling, relaxing as it flowed aganist ur back and dirty, full of sweat..The decsend back was more tiring cuz once u rested after a long exercise, u wont feel recharge, instead u ll fell like just lying there and giving up..soo tired.. When we arrived at the camp, shoes filled with sand, it was already afternoon and they finally let us wash up and get ready to leave, YAHOO.. i quickly ate and went to bath. Some still wanted to bath in the urine and sweat filled river, How strange..

The trip home was more quiet cuz all were poop out and so was i..And i still have to walk back cuz i live near the school. I wondered how i would be greeted by my family and especially my dog.. Sigh, my family will make a feast for me but my dog that i walk & feed almost everyday, would just sniff me or just lie there, bored. Thats what he usually does when i came back from school or tuition. sigh..But my dog Tyson will be that special someone who will brighten up my day and make it very memorable, SURPRISE

When i reached home i saw my brother Marcus and mom picking down the cloths, they gave me a smile and ask many questions, that made me realised how blessed i am. But i was dreading the moment when my dog would unlovingly come up and boringly sniff me. As the door open and i walked in, I saw Tyson coming quite fast at me and started to vigorously sniff me, trying to decide y i have so many wonderful smells. Then he started lifting up his 2 front legs,trying to reach something on me. So i said happily: "come boy, come poochie boy"Tyson then immediatly stood and grap on to my stomach, looking at me panting and smilling,saying" Master, where have u been, I really missed u.." He tried to lick my face but i gave a stern "no". he went down and instead tried to hold on to my leg.. Its as though he cant get enough of me hehe..He did that again and held on 4 a gud 10 sec.I gave him a gud belly and face rub, which sends him hopping with joy.Still panting and smilling, he followed me to the door and i gave him another gud rub. I saw in his eyes that he was enjoying this moment as much as i did.I felt as though i could go through the camp just to relive this moment hahe..=) and as i end this beautiful chapter of my life, i can confidently say that " Tyson, u r truly man's best friend..."
