Remembering tense moments


Pesta 2006 Drill Competition. Round 1, immediately before 3rd KL's team went in.
Han Sheng: Sir, they've instructed us not to march on the right of that cone.
(A cone was placed at the entrance of the drill ground to prevent teams from using the back of the field. 3rd KL's plan was to begin sizing up from there).

Voon: What nonsense. Okay, march the team on the left side of the cone and immediate break right after you clear it.

Han Sheng: (Dumdfounded face) You sure?

Voon: Yes. Heck it.
After the Boys went in and did their thing, we found out our team got through to the next round.. and that they moved the judges table further front from the back so that we couldn't do the same thing again. Lol.

Facebook's Even Better than a Website

I was strolling through facebook recently, with a random search for BB groups. To my surprise, it is quite a treasure trove of information! Even better than search results on Google. Not only can I find companies which do not have their own websites, Facebook groups are updated more frequently (compared to company websites which take ages to update) and are easier to manage.

Among my findings are:

1st Serdang
1st Kuantan (closed, but very interesting pictures)
2nd KL - great pictures!
1st Sibu - good videos

There's probably a Facebook group for every company.. even more than one group for the same co.

Among the things that you can find are..


1st Sibu Band Practice

1st Kuantan Enrolment Day - 1982

Facebook's not seen as an official channel by the older officers. Even blogs, which have more information than a company's official website, updated up Boys which have more time to spare than their officers. Official or not, these sites are what's keeping things interesting in the BB web circle.
