...
very very very very very very happy.
i must say that day 1 of camp was okie..except for me confessing e me and bug thing. day 2...i hit a low coz i realized tt i seriously cannot communicate with bug. but day 3 just rocked my world. and welll...we broke camp on a high. very very touched by how things went. as always...e camp didn't function on exquisite planning, packed activities (we nvr cld get rid of e fudgetime tt plagues us every yr...like hrs of fudgetime). but as always...wat made a diff was e ppl. read e feedback forms...read e testimonials we wrote for each other. and i simply felt touched. coz we all got closer thru camp. we really did.
what made e diff was e ppl. everyone at camp was like so frenly. =)
what i took away from camp:
1. e bonds of frenship. got to know mel and sha wok so much better...esp sha wok. i rem being intimidated and in awe last yr. coz she seemed so old, so zai, so vulgar, so bossy and in awe coz she entertained everyone during all e fudge times and she was always e one being so supportive and thanking me during debriefs. this yr...she's back. as vulgar, as zai as bossy and older....and she stunned me once again with her nvr-say-die attitude as she, a gal carried log till 2am+. seriously....very very touched by her spirit. and i also realized how freaking nice she is. super special gal. underneath e F*** and CB and KNN and everything....she's really someone who takes care of u, helps u, will always be there for u. and it took me so long to realize it coz last yr i was freaked out by e vulgarities spewing from a gal. gosh. took me so long...LOL. i can imagine y her bf was so certain tt he wld want to marry her after just 7mths and they got engaged right away. she's totally outta this world. yea!
2. got to noe dan X (aka damn exp) and erv better. absolutely hilarious time with these 2 jokers. nvr really took e effort to get to noe them better bahz. and they just blasted my world during camp. =D. absolutely funny lahz. like how damn exp wants to carry everything for me. imagine me walking with 2 bamboo poles and he's pushing a trolley and he offers to carry e poles for me...zzzzz. and left me with nth. then i said tt i'm strong..and he tossed me his slipper and told me tt it's heavy and i shld be careful with it. so i pretended that it was really heavy as we traversed e field. damn stupid looking to all bystanders in my opinion. and today he asked to hold my wallet in case it's too heavy. -_-. and wldn't stop telling me abt his slippers which was high technology, light weight crocs. -_-.
and then abt erv....absolutely fun. i think out of my entire MC...i speak to erv e least prior to camp. both our testimonials to each other mentioned e great change in our knowledge of each other. we fellow islanders stick tgt. still rem how we wld always high five whenever we tweak e program. LOL!! like e free and easy...we anyhow whack and stayed later than needed then we whisper whisper abt fudge time...then he will say 'program i/c thinks tt we can stay longer..program will still run smoothly' then i will say 'councilor i/c thinks that e councilors and freshies will be able to accommodate' then we high-five. LOL!!! it's fun snatching e lil moments of rebellion. and of coz...i realized how crazy he actually is was we tried to communicate with hand signs from diff buses at e same traffic light. i just love looking crazy. LOL
3. of coz...e freshies..e new frenships with e freshies...esp when i can see who has e potential to go on to much bigger things eg Y and est. those two gals just rox. it's really amazing tt e freshies are so interesting...but really...need to get to noe them much better and this is linked to pt 4...i'm totally totally glad coz of pt 4!!!
4. ppl who joined current MC from e previous: me, val, matt, sotong ball S
ppl joining next from current: mel, erv, joh, damn exp, bug, C. i'm also thinking of being an advisor who's like alive. LOL i.e. appears for meetings and actually gives advice. tt means tt...e retention rate is higher!!! =D. and really i feel that this yr...coz of e missing MC ppl...e core of us are strong. we were strong last yr too...just tt e core had less ppl. sad tt my neopet aka ZQ needs to go for SEP. if not she can join again too!!!
and another great thing..so far...there are already 2 freshies who have indicated they want to join e MC. which brings e total to 8!!!! =D =D. e other 4....haven't talk to them yet. gosh....happy happy.
5. my ZQ neopet....dun be jealous everyone..but i must take care of my neopet. but really...i can't understand y no one chase my neopet before. she's so super cute, clever (USP), gd in so many things...can play sports, can play cards, can do fortune telling...like GOSH. and she's so cute and she's calling herself an acara now. and she expresses herself in e cutest way. i'm totally attaching her image to my neopet. LOL. i absolutely want a daughter like her in future.
6. a not so happy thing. i realized tt after day 1 when i told mel, val and zq e watered-down version of y we broke....i realized tt as much as i try to forget e stuff...as much as i can not think abt them when we work tgt....i cannot forgive. for all my community service, for all my public spirit...i cannot forgive....i guess tt so far in my life..there's only one tt i can't forgive as of now.
perhaps...with time....i can make myself forgive him...but somehow i doubt so.
7. gossiping rox. GS really can become gossiping society. goodness...i found out so much abt my MC and e freshies...i even noe e entire love life of one of e freshies...LOL!! anyway....yah..def gossiping soc.
