plog!
Annual Camp!
Pre-Annual Camp
There were loads of stuff to be done before Annual Camp. Yea. ): I would say that probably one-quarter of the tan I had gained after Annual Camp was from pre-annual camp. The Pre-Annual Camp Act was brilliant (hur-hur geddit, brilliant?) (Actually I don't, but if you do, great!) We moved the poles from Braddell Westlake to RJC, unbundled it, sorted it, and then bundled it back again. It's just so fun, isn't it? And then we shifted it to the shade and out of the way.
And then for Annual Camp day 1 what would be the one of the first few things we would do? You guessed it! Ok maybe you didn't, but you ought to have to, seeing that I had spent one whole paragraph talking about it. You still don't? No, it's not the tan part, read it again. Are you sure? Really sure? No no, it's not the moving of poles! Oh man, you really don't get it? I thought it was really obvious. We unbundled the poles! There! What, you're saying it wasn't obvious? It SO was, ok! Ok, maybe not that obvious, seeing I only spent two words on it in the previous paragraph, but it's quite common sense, don't you think? Unless you are somehow devoid of common sense, or like spent it by automatically opening this volume of plogs. Oh well, just in case you have no idea what common sense it (but then it wouldn't be common sense any more, would it, since it wouldn't be common to every human being. Or maybe it's just you, some weird being devoid of common sense. Oh man, how I P.T. You. [hur-hur geddit? PT you! Hur-hur. ][Ok this time I got it, you ought to get it too]) here is a definition of common sense from wikipedia (see how kind I am)
Common sense (or, when used attributively as an adjective, commonsense, common-sense, or commonsensical), based on a strict construction of the term, consists of what people in common would agree on: that which they "sense" (in common) as their common natural understanding. Some people (such as the authors of Merriam-Webster Online) use the phrase to refer to beliefs or propositions that — in their opinion — most people would consider prudent and of sound judgment, without reliance on esoteric knowledge or study or research, but based upon what they see as knowledge held by people "in common". Thus "common sense" (in this view) equates to the knowledge and experience which most people allegedly have, or which the person using the term believes that they do or should have.
And again, there are some of you people who don't trust wikipedia, with all it being a collaboration and people who contribute to it are not experts but just normal everyday people, and sometimes not even that, but even worse. GASP what kind of people are there in the world today, you think? I feel that the world is dropping in terms of standard and how people are acting nowadays. I mean like, look at... hmm... uhh... UHMM... oh man I give up. Oh well, where was I. Oh ya, so for those of you who don't trust wikipedia, here's a definition from answers.com (google trusts it, so I think you should too! :D)
n.
Sound judgment not based on specialized knowledge; native good judgment.
[Translation of Latin sēnsus commūnis, common feelings of humanity.]
As I'm writing this, I'm getting high on chocolate that I'm going to get now.
*gets chocolate*
So that now you know what's common sense, we would all have common knowledge about common sense (hur-hur) but that doesn't fix the problem about you not having common sense if you don't. But that's not the point of the plog anw.
yea. so that's an excerpt (just a note, i spent 402 words talking about common sense). of course, this is roughly in proportion from the fact that the whole plog has to be 5k words. if your plog needs to be about 700+ - 800 words, probably just like, 150 words? of this random GL crap. yea. :D

plogs allocation
This is Sherman here, your APL. As I have yet to gather all yur emails, I shall post the patrol log allocations for this year here. I will try to email you the file once I get your email. You could also email me at yongkian_sherman@yahoo.com.sg.
Regarding the plogs, do note that all the assigned plogs below MUST BE SUBMITTED BY TERM 3 WEEK 1. Thus, we will need to collect the plogs before then. Each person need to do around 3-4plogs each, depending on the act covered. Do note some guidelines for writing a plog. For acts that are 2-3hours long, word limit is 600-700 words. For acts that are 5-6hours long (sat act, for eg), word limit is 1.5k. For camps that are 2-3days long, word limit is 3-4k. For 5-day camp, it is around 5k. However, it is better if you write more. Below are the allocations:

Do note that for plogs 27,28,31,34, they are not confirmed as I was unable to confirm the act and its type. If those doing them can remember the act stated as correct then do do so accordingly. However, if they are non-correct, pls tell me anytime. Also, act 39 may not require a plog, I will update Tony regarding this at a later date.
Anyway, I will send a sample plog to you all soon for reference, especially for the sec 1s. Do also note that patrol logs are meant to be COCKY AND FUN so you can write about the acts in a very funny way. Do try to do all the plogs by the last week of the holiday nd send to me or Yenter. DO HAVE A GOOD HOLS! :D
Cheers,
Sherman Tan
also btw, all of you are to write one GL (i.e. stupid) plog each, it's meant to be really lala but still related to scouts in a way.
i'm expecting all the plogs in by 24th, to me (yenter) (so easier to collate). those who don't will be hunted down muahahhaha.

Hello!
How happy we are now! Ok, so as we get into the mood of SUTC, you may want to see if you have done all these.
- Packed your bags properly
- Know the inspection layout very very well
- Done up your patrol items
- Have all parts of your Scout Uniform (it's not too late to borrow!)
- Printed out your consent form
- Have most of the important stuff for SUTC (like for sec ones, it could be a groundsheet/mess tin)
- Know the Scout Hymn by heart (according to the email wenhao sent)
- Fortunately, if you haven't learnt it yet, its not too late. You can scroll down to see the previous post and have a good look at the Scout Hymn (Hopefully it's not too late)
More tips
- Remember to count how many whistles the J1s blown
- If there are lectures, do not talk unless absolutely necessary
- Remember how to do inspection - FAST
- During an inspection, when they ask you to pack up, pack up fast. Do not put in item by item or else you foam
Ok, for the tips, it's from what I learnt. If you do not want to learn, you can learn it the hard way from SUTC. =)
Thanks Rui Liang.

Scout Shop
hello kestrel. for those who dunno how to go to the scout shop, i'll attach a picture. (left).
it's a screenshot of google maps, but that's not the point. lol. from it you can see RI (or at least the swimming pool), you follow the road. it's like when you step out of school out of the RI/RJC exit, or the tennis court exit, you turn right, then you're on that white road. then cross that yellow road, on the left you'll see junction 8 (not included in picture). then you see the first junction (white road, leading up down) past it is the scout shop. i think. should be la. it's a green building (pictured with a brown roof here). yeash. i'm sorry i dun think i can follow you two who are going. hopefully this'll help. :D
