Coy2 Sec3s, please remember on the steps on how to make popcorn as you will be leading the Sec 1s with confidence(!!) on how to start the fire with solid fuel and how to make popcorn. Mynah and Sparrow will be leading the 1st session, followed by Dove and Oriole with the 2nd session. 

Steps on how to make popcorn:
1. Wrap aluminum foil into a bowl shape
2. Place the corn kennels, a little bit of oil, salt or sugar into it
3. Wrap up the aluminum foil and fold down the top of the foil and make sure there are no holes or gaps in between the folds 
4. Make sure there is sufficient space inside the foil for the popcorn to pop
5. Place the wrapped foil into the messtin and place messtin over the fire
6. Shake the messtin consistently and to ensure that it will not burn, shake the messtin slightly back and forth.
7. After no popping sound can be heard, carefully unwrap the aluminum foil and pour out contents into the bag which afterwards, you can add a little bit of oil and sugar or salt to make sure it sticks to the popcorn.

*Please remember to send your PLs your write up by 9pm tonight.
*Please remember your punks, and WHITE SOCKS , do not forget to bring it, we will not want to see anyone flipping their Chung Cheng socks.

week2's reflection

Wednesday

On Wednesday, we were seated in our companys planning ideas for the short video we had to film. All my batchmates gave a lot of intersting ideas and we would cooperate well with each other  .We also played some company games. As always , the games were very fun as that was the time everyone would be laughing and talking together,  and there was a strong bond between everybody. After this we went down to the concourse to drill .We also learnt more commands and  I also kept making mistakes in turning ever though I knew the commands as sometimes I just copied the wrong person and this led to a lot of  confusion. But overall, I enjoyed Wednesdays activity as we could learn more and communicate to one another

Friday

On friday we all had to wear out full uniform and gather at the concourse by 3.20pm. It was a bit rush for the upper sec because we all only had 20 mins to prepare, but nevertheless, all of us were on time. After we did uniform check and roll call, the sec 3's were split in to their repective coys, coy 2 did fire starting first while coy 1 did their video filming. We first started off by turfing a square on the ground. Afterwards, we started to put twigs into the square starting from the thickest to the thinnest. Then, we had to use a matchstick to start the fire, for right handers, we have to start from the left to the right. It was very hard maintaining the fire, we had to constant bend down and put our face closely to the ground to blow the fire in order to spread the fire and keep the fire burning. We then started to boil a kettle of water over the fire. After the water boiled we had to pour water over the fire to extinguish the fire. We were all very shocked by the fact that we had to use our own bare hands to clear away all the burned twigs, but nevertheless, we all helped each other to clear everything away. By the end of fire starting, we all smelled very smokey and we had a lot of ash sticking to our hair.It was a really fun experience for us as this is our first time doing fire starting. Afterwards, Coy 2 then proceeded on to to film their video, and we it was very fun as we did the mannequin challenge we had to stay very still and it was very funny.
