Today...
Had promo in school. First, I reach school at 7.35am. Stayed at the foyer for awhile with sqdmates to see if anyone is coming anymore. Once it reach 7.45am, we went to the canteen, put our stuffs down and went to change to full u. We change till like 7.10am then come back to help get Charissa's beret. Greeted the ma'ams there and then NCO pass me Anushka and Charissa's nametag plus rank. Ran back to the washroom to pass them the things. After that, a group of us went back. When i was standing there, suddenly someone called sec1s then i turn around zh ma'am suddenly appear behind me then she pass me a letter for our squad. Yeah, it's a good luck for promo letter. Since not everyone is back yet, I went to have a drink first with Siow Ee and then when I come back then I showed my sqdmates the letter. Taught some of them sheetbend as it's the least taught knot.

Theory paper was given out. I didn't take note of the time which we are suppose to stop at so i kind of rush. When I flipped the paper to the 2nd page, I was shocked! We are actually tested tent guy loop, timber hitch and w-whipping. I sort of panick for awhile. After doing all the ones i know, I recall where did i hear this knot Tent guy loop? Then luckily I remembered that it's the one which is a slip knot and the running end going through the loop and tighten it.(: Next, timber hitch. I recall the picture I saw in the notes I have and also did it well(: Only the w-whipping. I never heard of this name before and didn't tie it before. So, I anyhow tie a thing out and stick it down.

Practical was the drill part. We were ask to check our uniform after "kelua baris" and then fall in at the parade square. What happen was we actually have many uniform check. Either at the spot or go to the washroom which happens like i think at least 4-5times. We don't know what's wrong with our attire. Haiz...Wasted i think like 1h plus doing that and thus reducing the time on drills. Nope, it isn't good because this means that they will only judge us on the drills that we did in the short period of time and thus when time runs out, we won't be able to earn anymore marks. Our NCO ask us what happen to us and talk to us for a little while. After that the CIs came back. They sedia us, do dressing and then senandiri us. This should means uniform inspection time. But I wasn't sure whether it is or not. They walk in front of AiQi then wrote something on the paper but she didn't check her uniform so i thought it isn't uniform check, thus I didn't do the uniform inspection procedure. Then Meera ma'am walk towards me and started inspecting my uniform when i alr have no time to do the procedure.): Seriously sad. Then, it started to drizzle. We were ask to fall in in the canteen. We didn't do the drill as a squad but we did it like separately. Then, the first rank was called out first which means me while the other go to practice first. I wasn't good, seriously. Firstly, we sedia like a few times. Then, when doing "kekenan lurus" it shld be elbow dressing but pooranee did arm dressing. When we turn, we did't turn together. Some of them were slower. When doing pacing, the CIs said a command which i didn't understand as well as my sqdmates as we are not taught that way. Then we seemed like we didn't know the drills. The CI ask us if it's correct or wrong then Chun Yee and Dorcas told the CI how we were taught. Then at last we can do pacing. Not long after, we were dismissed. Then the next grp of people went.

OMG, Ying Hooi somehow "crack" her ankle while turning. It's not that normal one but even Dora standing beside her heard the "crack" sound! She cried. It seemed so pain):
