Today is sort of an important day for me!!!
Earli in the morning, flashbacks of memories came back 1 by 1... Out of the sudden, 100plus came to my mind!!! I have no exact idea y out of so many memorable things to think of, but jus popped and it came out...
Still rmb the days when Mr Lim bought us 100plus aft certain activity during my NPCC day...
Yea.. today is the official last event that is happening in Juying for NPCC!!! Come to tink of it, I was in NPCC for 9 years in my life... yea 9 years, 5 cadet years, 4 years of CI-ship...
It is of cos hard and cant believe.. but aftall, it is the fact tt this thing is happening :X
My 5 years of suffering and enjoyment in NPCC was... smthing tt words cant describe... The tears we shed, we perspired, we had fun, we been thru all the thick and thin tgt, the training we did for school events, the push-ups we had done, no matter whether it is with my batch mates, my NCOs, my CIs, my juniors and last but nt least nt forgetting the Teachers Officers (Mr Lim, Mr Kevin Tan, Mrs Tan SW, Ms Chua n etc)... I reali had no regrets choosing NPCC as my CCA when i was in Sec 1... We use to show off to other CCA, saying that NPCC has the best teachers among all the CCAs... We are all well taken care of by the Teachers... Mr Lim's treat aft putting oil for the rifle on on of the saturdays, Mrs Tan supper every night during camp, Mr Tan's approval for letting us hav BBQ during my camp n many many more things that reali warms the heart of every cadet, and looking forward to every parade that is coming up...
My next 4 years as a CI, was been thru too with the Teacher Officers, as well as the HOs, and fellow CIs... It was another fruitful 4 years for myself being able to look at the view of the instructors.. Different but great experiences... The times that we hav to alot of planning before every parade.. Rushing down to parade every week aft lectures.. Organizing ATC/STC camps was memorable as well... Different things that i learnt benefited from all these many many events... Till as of today, still cannot kick the habit of putting my hands to the NPCC stuffs..
I was being asked, whether to continue my NPCC life... It gave me a deep thought...
My reply was, I had decided to put it away after last year's ATC/STC... It took me quite awhile to reali make this decision nt to turn back.. Afterall, to stop smthing that you hav been doing it for 9 years is somehow is hard...But i wont say that there is no chance that i will turn my head back again...
