the jellyfish is back. Blogging about NS checkup!
So hmm generally, the checkup was ok, nothing much happened... However, I feel that going for this NS checkup is just like doing an orbis PQ.
My father took me to CMPB, ate mac in the morning in the car. =D When i reached there it was around 8.57am, so i called PH (nvr pick up phone) and BH. BH then said nobody knew how to go to CMPB, so oh well, i have to go all the way to Bukit Merah Bus interchange.
Got lost halfway on the way to the bus interchange, so took a bus there, then i realised the distance is around 800m. Suddenly, i recalled Warren's instructions for going CMPB, "go TB, take bus to bus interchange, then walk 5 mins to CMPB". The distance from the bus stop which is near to CMPB to the bus interchange is around 800m. So much for the 5 mins walking! Thanks ar! =P Oh, BH was like complaining about him seeing the CMPB building from home, and he went 1 full round to only get back to the building he sees. Good job! ^^
Of course we were late, but no direct / indirect consequence though, here comes the PQ part.
Party members: Me, PH, BH, WK, WL
Entrance: Changed IC for a small locker key to store our phones inside a small locker. Not bad sia =P
Stage 1 - [Entrance to the checkup]
Got a pink form over there which was supposed to be a checklist of stations. =D A few stations to clear. The entrance was very quiet though, and very cooling.

Stage 2 - [Photo taking for NS card]
Disastrous stage for some reason, the camera alignment of the officer sucks. His instructions were like "turn ur head to the right, oh no thats too much, tilt ur head to the left, and wa seh."
The top looks quite nice though, and WL wore a perfect pair of shorts which perfectly mathces the colour of the top. Appropriate! Jeff likes this. (thumbs up)
WL's hair was short, but somehow he was requested to pull his fringe up, which was like huh?

Finally, it's the start of the checkup. For some reason, we didnt wait really long for any stations, so is time-saving and nt bad! =D
Stage 4 - [Urine test]
We were given a container each to go to the toilet and pee. Everybody was like huh pee where ar? Of course the urinal lol. Got one random guy was like come in and say
just pee la". And yea, pee. The container is really dam small, but heng i didnt flood it as i just stopped peeing halfway into the container and pee into the urinal for the other half. A lot ppl kena their hands, including me. Feeling, you ask?
PH's answer: Warm. =P

Stage 5 - [Blood test]
One of the worse stages. The officer can't find my veins, and so my 2 hands also kena pricked. Not as pain as Gabriel described, and not as scary as WC described.
The officer told me to flex my hand, a bit like weightlifting sia. Wa heng left and he found the veins at least, or he will keep on poking until he found the veins...
Can't read my, can't read my, no he can't read my poker veins... He ain't got to poke nobody...

Stage 6C - [Dental]
The only stage which i dunno how is it related to NS. A super quick stage, where the officer just said some random sentences which i supposed has something to do with my teeth. =D

Stage 6D - [X-ray]
For some reason, i hate this stage. The machines were quite loud, which were like why ar? Holding your breath is like lol.... o.o probably checking bones w/o air. Haha!

==============================================================
Back to stages in order.
Stage 7 - [ECG - is it ElectroCardioGram?]
I think this is the stage where they see the problems of lungs. Passed this stage, with all the random suction things which made a lot of marks on my body, but should be gone by now. ^^
BH was making ppl laugh, he said something about 3 out of 6 suction things dropping off from his body, which took him a super long time to lie on the bed.

Stage 8 - [Height and Weight + Pulse station]
Haix.
The officer I think was from PJ, cos he said something about the Principal's speech, and commented something on the suicide case.
1 minute of silence to the case.
I don't get how he knows the whole group of us is from 09S16 though, is there somewhere he could check? Hmm...

Supposed to be the highlight of the whole checkup, but nothing exciting happened (it works both ways)

Stage 10 - [IQ test] (Boss stage)
Encounted so many questions in like one go. Haha.
Got some random shape pattern questions, english questions, algebra questions, Orientation questions, sequence questions, physics questions and number pattern
questions.
I loved the algebra and physics, breezed through super easily. Hated the number pattern and orientation the most, can't really identify lol!
Took a very long time. At the end of the IQ test, they had this survey.
Q1: Estimated waiting time for this test.
Ans: <5 minutes.
Q2: Satisfied with the waiting time?
Ans: Er... Should I put no? XP
