no....ds didn't take this phone along. He said all phones will be kept away by someone during the whole OBS training. So no point bringing.
Did anyone get phone call or message from your DS?
Hope someone can share their current status.
I purposely bought sunblock for this OBS as stated in the pack list - actually not necessary. The weather these days are rainy. @firefly....I'm also expecting muddy laundry :yikes: -
Last night DS shared with me me that he hopes his class can win some games during the orientation camp because he heard that the prize is FOOD!

Any comments fr year 1 Ds on the orientation camp?. My son said it was worse than army camp, very rigorous, only given 2 min to shower etc..N those who brought pillow got confiscated.. Haha, the tough training has toughened him up too

DS's pillow was confiscated
He said that they were given 3 minutes to undress, shower, towel dry and put on clothes.
DS said they had to run back and forth from the hall to the field with their backpack and barang-barang at least 5 rounds in order to instill in them sense of urgency. Last week DS said they must stand up and sit down repeatedly if they are not standing up or sitting down fast enough. I think it is good. I support the exercise/penalty for not doing things fast enough. :celebrate:
DS likes the orientation camp. He thinks it is more fun than his P5 camp :boogie: He got to know his classmates better

it's normal...during my ds time he said the same thing too....but they can look forward to year 2 Malaysian Montage - it's the best (according to my ds) really feel like going for holiday - stay in 4 or 5 star hotel, sight seeing. He even had time to take video of the ostrich farm (I thought it was quite nice and relaxing).
As for year 3 OBS...hmm....gotto see what he says tmr when he returns. -
