South Division Day. Ended with on a happy note.

I wasn't looking forward to SDD today. Cos I know that the tester is scaryyy. And afraid that we might make silly mistakes and careless ones due to our nervousness. I was really so frightened esp in the morning! Ahhh!

Then when we got to Camp Christine, we sang cheers, and we were the only school to cheer! Heh! :) Finally, it was time to start. Our location was the furthest away from the camp store. Bleh. :( So we had to walk such a long distance, carrying the tent bag!

Yeah. We started. Pitching the tent. We really made a bit of mistakes here and there that we shouldn't have in the first part, maybe because we were too anxious? (Okok, cut the long story short.) But later we caught up and 'breezed through' the peggings and malleting. :D We had time to make adjustments and all that. That was great!

I don't know why but it seems like today we were normal. As in, we weren't really fast, neither were we slow. Just normal. :) When the tester came, the first remark was negative! Argh! But after that she didn't say anything. Oh, except for the 'thank you'.

Then we were so proud of ourselves for pitching such a beautiful and gorgeous tent! Teamwork man! :) If I'm not wrong, we were the first to finish pitching. :)

Results. Gahhhh! It was really nerve-wrecking. Cos our main rival is SCGS. Eventually, CEDAR GUIDES GOT 1ST! Woohoo~! Oh gosh, that was super great! I was feeling extremely proud of ourselves, for being able to achieve what we wanted. All our trainings under the hot sun, malleting the pegs into the ground, swapping away silly insects. Wowww, I can't believe that our hard work actually paid off! (:

Beaunice, Zhi Hui, Charlotte, Nithya and Celest, you guys have been great teammates to work with! Thanks for the encouragement that you gave to me when I was feeling very nervous. xD Not forgetting Kaushi, Abigail, Jing Wen, Jassandra and Hilary. Thanks a lot for being the time keeper! And cheating us almost 10 minutes of our time! Hahaha.

Yay, I'm so elated. I couldn't believe my ears the moment they announced 'Cedar Guides' as the 1st/champion for Tent Pitching. Well done, Tent Pitching! :DDD

Ok, other events did well too! Patrol Identity got 1st too! And Kitchen Dresser got 3rd! Good Job people! Don't feel sad, Flag Identity. You guys have put in your best and you know that you have done well too. It's the learning process that counts! :)
