oh, bee ass.

OBS.

Obscene,
Ballistic
Shits.

WHEN THEY SAY PUSH YOU TO YOUR VERY LIMIT,
they weren't kidding.

OBS
1. Tedious
2. Fun

1.
first day was nothing.

second day was nothing much.

third day we had 6 hours of kayaking, approximately 10 km round
pulua ubin, and i threw up 8 times.
As quoted: "
Merlion in the ubin". Cold joke, fathergoose.

fourth day we woke up with massive aches on our shoulders and arms.
Evidently had to trek from campsite 3 a.k.a. HELL to campsite 2.
6.5km, no compass, took a wrong turn, altogether it took 6 to 7 hours.
oh, and did i forget to mention we had to carry an estimated of 12kg of heavy baggage on our backs? Plus tents, plus bottles, plus
jerry cans.

fifth day is today.
and today,
i miss obs.

2.
Sometimes in Singapore, we forget that there are millions of stars above us.
And over at ubin, we remembered.


Over at obs, instructors are your friends.
they cheat your feelings, lie about their birthdays, sing a modified version of Fall For You, want to hear the extended version of your bimbo cheer, and have fun being called names.
Right Elton the
FatherGoose/Mr. Gay/Earthquake man/DaddyDuck?

someone: okay, 1, 2, 3,
FATHERGOOSE, okay?
marcopolo watch: kay.
someone: 1, 2, 3!
marcopolo watch: FATHERGOOSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

it's mighty impressive, esp shouting from block 7 to the immortal block,
and
fathergoose actually came running.

Over at obs,
you bond with your friends like you never thought you could,
you give them ludicrous nicknames so catchy and hilarious,
you take a million pictures and wished you brought extra batteries,
you're called a bimbo,
you play the most colossal and shocking truth or dare,
you sing random
mammamia/hsm3/camprock/taylorswift songs while pitching tents/cooking/trekking/kayaking and love it,
you have the time of your life.



OBS Never Ends - Marco Polo 09' TKGS batch
Hey!
Uh oh, uh uh oh oh, uh uh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
hey!
Uh oh, uh uh oh oh, uh uh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
hey!

Five days you think for sure
That's all you've got to endure
All the tent pitching,
All the death wishes,
So superficial, so immature

Then when you graduate
You take a look around and you say HEY WAIT
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over
Aw that's just great

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who can kayak,
and who knows to trek,
Who's got the mass tins, who steals the lighters,
Who's got a spoon and who's got a fork
And you still don't have the solid fuels
And you don't have the right utensils
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
OBS never ends

Check out the instructors
You'll never guess what Father Goose did
How did Jerry* lose his/her virginity?
And who cares if Marco Polo had the best cheer?
And the only thing that matters
Is climbing up that stone rock ladder
Still care about your hair and how you smell
Don't be an idiot and apply insect repellent.

Le
Xuan,
She's the bimbo
Noran,
Dora the Explorer
Siti,
the entire screaming team
I've seen it all before,
I want my money back!

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who can kayak,
and who could trek,
Who's got the mass tins, who steals the lighters,
Who's got a spoon and who's got a fork
And you still don't have the solid fuels
And you don't have the right utensils
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
OBS never ends

Tune adapted from: "High School Never Ends"
Lyrics by: OBS Marco Polo watch TKGS 09' batch

*Name has been changed, so as to protect one's modesty.
