STARTED!1st ckpt was sum trigonometrical stn... frederick successfully led us the the location. reached at 8pm.. but we wasted lyk ard half an hr tryin to find the markin for the trigo stn... in the end stiu cannot find, so the seniors told us to use another sign instead...
nx ckpt was a church near pasir panjang wholesale ctr.. kun wei was navigator... as we walked, frederick din c the cups on the ground, n kicked 1 of em over... den junhong sir was lyk starting to bcum scared, coz the cups r those use for offerings 1, summore it was at nite... den at 1 pt, we needed to walk tis narrow path within sum terrace hses.. it was
dark n
creepy lar... so when we got thru, we tot the church was near, but aft we set the map, the area was diff to the area on the map we tot we were at... den aft sum time, we figured out our location n headed to the church. so we walked for sum time n reached the ckpt at 9.56pm.. passed many churches on the way... yup,

nx ckpt was radin mas cc. i was navigator... n the route was longer than the 2 ones b4.. so i walked at my own speed n led the way... the rest were lyk complainin tt i walk v fast, n the y had a hard time tryin to catch up... they were either scuttling up to me once in a few seconds, or they wuld go "junle, can u slow down?"
LOL.. but i tink i din walk tt fast ba... moreover, the distance was quite far n i din want to waste time..we walked n walked n walked... at 11.24, we reached the cc & our fatigue level was starting to get high... n the grp was sian diao, except me...
