15th-Anniversary Mural Painting Reflections at 6/09/2009 04:18:00 pm

1. My hand have to be steady and firm in order to do a good job in painting.

2. With steady hands, I can hold things properly to do a job.

3. It help me to have more teamwork in the CCA and also help me to get CIP hours.

4. What I enjoyed the most is painting together to build more close relationship.

Amirul

1. We need teamwork so that the job will be done easier and faster.

Discussing. We planned to mix the colour, planned to paint this, paint that.

Getting a painter to paint at parts that are very complicated.

2. It is the same as doing projects in a group. We cooperate with each other.

We should discuss about ideas. Expand it. And thats what the project needs.

Using the computer for research. It's fast and easy.

3. We took turns as there were insufficient paintbrushes. We talk with each other while painting to use the time chatting and having fun.

We communicate more than during CCA. It is fun having this activity.

It helps a lot. We had fun together. We chat after the painting was almost finished.

4. Collecting the paint.

Looking at other CCA's paintings when I was getting a bucket of water.

Walking to the wall of painting.

Azreen

1. By improving my teamwork with them.

2. When working with others we must get along with them in order to be successful.

3. It allows me to know them even better by chatting while doing out job.

4. Outlining the picture.

Muhd Nazrul

1. Need a good teamwork.

2. Not to give up on anything and try to do it.

3. By not to fight or quarrel among each other.

4. Paint and do the artwork.

Zaid, 3T1

1. Need to have good teamwork.

2. Help each other to encourage to study.

3. If we do it together we will finish it faster.

4. Outlining the drawing.

Dino, 2E2

1. Need a good teamwork.

2. Keep on trying and not give up.

3. Not fighting with each other.

4. Painting!

What's a mess tin and a stove? at 5/31/2009 09:31:00 pm

Here are a few pictures to help answer the Part A's questions on what is a stove or mess tin.

This is a picture of two Mess Tins. They can be bought at the army shop at Tampines or Bedok. They come in sets of two.

This is a picture of a stove and some solid fuel tablets (hexamine). They can also be bought at the army shop. The white cubes are solid fuels, and the metal structure is the stove. They are sold separately in the army shops.

15th Anniversary Mural Painting Project at 5/22/2009 10:48:00 pm

Cadets who are involved in the Mural Painting Project are supposed to write your reflections in a piece of paper and hand it up to me. (S1 or AS1)

I will then post it on the blog.

I think the mural painting is great! it pulls the relationship of our friends together or rather closer... It gives us a feeling that we should contribute to the public...we made their block a more enjoyable place! I think that this project made ncc cadets who participate closer and know more about them!
