i was damn bo liao yesterday so i just sent out a list of what to do during muster parade to my patrol. basically i dun remember a single thing about the actual commands but i think i remember the order of the commands so thats why you'll see "the command for..." after almost every line. I hope it helps some people somehow. =)

1. we'll get ready at the road behind the raffles square. form up in rows of three. this rows does not have to be according to height.
2. command to stand at attention
3. command to basically turn right, and then split into one straight line according to height (tallest on the right, shortest on the left)
4. command to number off (still satu dua)
5. command for the "1" people to step forward, the "2" people to step backwards.
6. command for the 1 people to turn right, and the 2 people to turn left
7. command to march, following the person in front of you. right marker stands straight and the others form up into rows of three behind and next to him. the next person of the next row moves to the front, and the next two form up next to him. when ready, the back person will coordinate and the column will turn together to face the front.
7a. command to report strength (look at jeremy's email for more details) front person say the number (1,2,3), last person of last row say the number and also the people missing.
8. after that, we'll wait for the rest of the uniform groups ahead of us to be ready, and then follow them into the raffles square after command to march.
9. march to our designated area
10. command to stop
11. command to turn and face the commanding guy.
12. command to space out. (right marker don't move, the others move one arm's length away from each other, head tilt.)
13. command to return to attention.
14. command to go to ease (senandiri)
15. the teachers will speak after this
16. command to go to attention
15. command to break off. (turn left right left hand raise up)

dun copy. its mine! :) yay.

today's muster parade was screwed up. we did two runs of it, and in the end what was supposed to last half an hour instead dragged for almost one half hours. zzz not a good idea... what did the teachers tell us at the parade? 3 minutes worth of stuff only, i tell you.

Had very little time left for act but the J1s pushed through and by the end the sec 2s had made a flagstaff and the sec 3s made a beautiful beautiful bridge which i dun have a picture of. hope francis will lend me the pic. =) he's a nice guy right? All the NPCC people were like standing at one side with their pathetic tent like structure and saying OMG i wanna be a scout.

Lol. And the push up we had to pay. All i can say is
