alrite... i'll talk bout my NS experience... from day 1... after registration at da pickup point, i got on da bus n headed to my transit stop... story is like dis... my NS camp is Bagai Budi Camp, Sandakan, Sabah... all of da trainees (supposedly...) hav to leave for their destinations on da 1st of jan... but i got a letter statin tht i will be leavin on da 2nd of jan... but i still hav to be placed at a transit stop for an overnite stay... my transit stop was in Tanjung Rhu, Sepang... not a bad place i must say... after listenin to a 'short' welcomin speech, i went for lunch... i managed to get some info bout tht place from da trainers incharge there... apparently this place is specially made for trainers to stay n NOT for trainees... (no wonder its fascilities r not bad...) after gettin into our rooms (man... they r so darn STUFFY!! dont they ever air tht place?!) n settlin down, mixin round, teabreak n dinner, lastly had a another 'short' briefin on our flight da next day... ok... those who were goin to sandakan were split into 2 groups: group 1 leavin at 4am (man... thts WAY early... heh?) n group 2 leavin at 2pm (woot~!! my group... =D)... n da best part was those who were in group 2 laughed at those in group 1 becos they had to leave early... (THT was a VERY BAD idea...)

fast forward to next day... (i'll skip da breakfast n other stuff... too long n too borin...) group 2 left at 11 somethin (i think...) n reached at KLIA at 12... here is where da prob starts... all trainees r to check in n settle everythin 2 hours BE4 da flight... how is tht possible when we reached there at 12 while our flight is at 2?? at 1st we didnt know anythin... until i n 5 other guys got a 'pleasent surprise'... da guy incharge asked for 6 guys names... he didnt say wat it was for... so we thought we might make it on an early flight... but then... he told us we were goin to SIBU!! camp transfer somore... we PRACTICALLY begged him to cancel our names... at last he did... thts when everythin came out... all of us cannot board da flight eventhough there r seat avaliable... so we were left wit 2 options: 1) a small group split n go to Sibu while da rest go to a nearby camp; 2) all of us stick 2gether n go to a nearby camp... every1 seemed to prefer option 2 so all of us were transfered to Kem Setia Ikhlas, Semenyih...!! (rite here in S'gor...) i'll continue more in my comin posts...
