back from camp....
very tired but it was a once in a lifetime experience! guess i will nvr hav to the chance to do it again as next yr is A lvls already..... was sad at the end of the camp.... i really felt attached to the kids even thou they were giving me a lot of problems.... becuz i noe tat tis will most probably be the last time tat i see them....
3 days of camp.... at the end of it, even thou i did not achieved my purpose for coming to tis camp, which is to find back the child in me thru them.... but i learned a lot of things frm them oso.... i realise i can nvr be like them already.... i oso see frm them tat they showed their true emotions as they please.... no pretentious kids in my grp.... tat is 1 thing tat needs to be cherish....
the kids were very playful n handful..... but aft i got to noe them well(i remembered their names by the first day night)..... they r all actually very nice kids.... juz playful.... thou they could treat andrew better instead of keep making him cry.... but i admit i did sort of agree wif the rest of the guys.... but i muz be unbiased n stop them frm disturbing him....
ok... colin n darren r the best 2 guys.... nvr give me any trouble at all.... but they r quite quiet....
wei rong n bernie r very playful.... wilard.... hmm....he is like always not interested in the activities.... jia hui is worse.... he is the slackest in the grp.... if u see him running it is a miracle itself already.... joshua needs to be faster in watever he do.... andrew needs to be more independent.... lastly the best kid in my grp..... kai zhou.... he is the one i like most.... thou he always wan to take the flag n complains abt cleaning up the floor.... but he followed everything tat i said in the end.....
cant believe 3 days went by so fast.... the first day was the worst... but by the third day... u find tat how come so fast finish.... the kids finally started to behave..... n i cant bear to let them leave too....
haha.... i guess my favourite camp pharse to the kids is "later, later".... well.... later means i oso don noe but i'm trying to let u tink tat i noe.... lol.... n they keep calling me uncle..... i only 7 yrs older nia... lol....
but kids tis days n kids of our generation r so so different... took me a while to get used to it..... it was an eye opening experience.... really enjoyed myself..... it was not a piece of cake or smooth sailing.... but i found joy being wif them....
to killer whale 5, i would like to thx them for being in the camp itself.... they really made my day(thou not all the time).... all the best in life..... cherish wat u hav now..... n i really hope tat they will one day come back to tns to take another batch of campers like me..... they made a difference in my life.... n i hope tat i did made a difference in ur life too..... take care and behave urself in the future.... hope to see u all again someday.....
to the rest of killer whale facilators.... it was a wonderful experience being wif u guys for pre camp n actual camp.... thou at times i may feel out of place becuz of all the tjcians.... but nevertheless.... u all made killer whale successful.... n a enjoyable hse to be in.....
finally to my partner in crime.... well u did a great job in taking care of the kids..... well done.... haha we survived 3 days wif the kids..... a miracle itself..... lol....
hope to see u all soon again.... take care n all the best in life..... u all impressed me in ur own way.... n without u all, the camp wont run smoothly..... u all made the difference! thx u....
"happiness is infectious"
i will miss ur smiles, laughter, ur boundless energy, u calling me uncle, ur refusal to keep quiet n sit down, u asking me whether i married or not, u leading me for the amazing race, u splashing water on me, playing touch ruby wif u, ur determination in climbling the rock walk, being wif u dragon boating in the rain, shouting at u guys, waking u up, the unsuccessful icebreakers, the cheers, our impromptu performance, the campfire, eating wif hands, n most of all i miss u ppl n the joy tat we had in tat 3 short days.
