When Sec 3s are bored out of their wits during yeoman.

The awkward moment when ACSB, ACSP, ACSJ and ACSI bomb each other without specifying which troop.

term 3!

hello kingfisher!

It's been quite long since I've updated this blog. Seems pretty quiet here, hmm.

Anyway, Term 3 is here! It has been 3 weeks into the term and we've gone through an array of fairly interesting activities (yes, test-taking is interesting!). There are plenty of more fun and bonding activities coming up soon throughout the term, and in term 4! (muahahaha)

Plogs for Term 2 were relatively better than in term 1, so thank you for cooperating with me, even though I still believe we could have done better in terms of punctuality in the submission of plogs as well as the quality (word count, etc.). Nonetheless, all of your plogs are interesting to read and quite enjoyable!

In case you guys have not realised, donation draw booklets (and AVSW pledge cards for some of you) have been given out. Try your best to sell as many booklets! Every ticket or pledge counts, as you will be making a difference to the scout HQ fund (and the movement to help autistic children from Pathlight). Keep sellin' em and don't give up!

Also, considering that it is already term 3, my term as KF's PL will be coming to an end soon. Not so soon, but very soon. With Term 4 packed with GTC and EoYs, we will have only this term to be together as a patrol and enjoy each other's company. Fear not, there are many activities that we can surely bond as a patrol and treasure your last moments with me as your PL.

A new adventure awaits all of you in Term 4 and 2012. As for now, we shall stay strong and united as KF 2011 with our mighty wings and intelligent minds.

alis animi! (:

annual raincamp 2011

HELLO KINGFISHER!

AC is over and it was awesome! We got 3rd and that is really an accomplishment we all should be proud of. Nonetheless, the standings don't matter at all. We all had fun throughout the five days, through thick and thin, through rain and... er.. more rain and many defeats. This year's AC was one I truly enjoyed and thanks to you guys for making it so memorable for me.

To be honest, as a PL, I was extremely nervous about AC, not because KF would get trashed badly by the other patrols, but because I want to treasure it as the last AC for me, and making it an enjoyable experience for you guys. I can't help but think of how I can make it an enriching experience for the Sec 1s and to groom the Sec 2s to lead KF to greater heights.

I guess I did well, and you guys enjoyed yourself.

AC is not all about patrol rivalry, let's get that clear, it doesn't matter which patrol comes in first, or last. We help each other in times of need and we are a whole SU. I'm proud that you guys put others in front of yourself.

First day of camp, Falcon and our patrol had trouble with our kitchen tent since we got the safari tent which was much much heavier than the normal tarp. You guys helped out Falcon and we worked together to erect both our structures up. It was a commendable effort, and it's true that AC should not be merely bordered by patrol rivalry and bigotry.

We spent the first four days working hard developing our campsite, and the time we spent doing that was something I found extremely memorable and immeasurable. The rain didn't stop us and we had fun despite the gloomy weather. Do not be sad that we didn't do that well, but be happy that we had fun as a patrol and the memories we share are irreplaceable.

Thanks kingfisher for making my last AC as a scout, truly, a memorable one.
