After weeks of sleepless nights.. its the start of 4days 3 nights with more sleepless night.. lol. and then.. its just over like that.. though its been great memories.. I'm still glad that its finally over.. TGIO!
lol this camp entry is 1 week overdue! totally forgotten bout it haha. and I thought I typed more than this.. hmm. well let's just finish this tonight.. before everything's forgotten..
doing things up till the last min before the camp.. bad bad.. problems of being too micro.. wanting to take care of everything.. geigao bout little things that I can think of to ensure they're done properly.. doing things with Ben open me up to more things to look into.. some impt, some not that impt.. but another perspective of things.. which sometimes led to slower progress cos need to discuss and argue haha. but in the process neglected some bigger things now and then.. but well.. eventually things are still done and set ready for camp..
usual camp stuff.. this and that.. this year's camp had the highest officers/grad attendance in recent years.. hmm.. With more help around indeed make things easier.. At least don't have to everything also the few of us bao ga liao like last year.. Guess last year was the worse with 4 of us doing everything.. Lol I just realize something.. Come to execution I'm in fact very macro at times.. sometimes even too macro which is bad.. hmm.. Reflection time.. Lol
this year's camp had quite a high casualty rate though.. Even send one to hospital for check to be safe after hearing qj's story.. :/ prove to be a false alarm.. Thinking back, I'm still not sure did I made the right decision.. Cos I guess without QJ's recent incident, we'll normally wait and see till the next morning.. Though of course its good that things were ok and its better to be safe than sorry.. Lol. Was joking with qj that he dai suay cos zhsj didn't have any serious case over the years la..
This time round didn't join them for hike too.. Went out for 2nd waipo's there.. Funeral is never something anyone will ever be ok with I guess.. but well.. Its part of life.. At least I hope it did remove the sufferings in this life ba.. Though not that close.. Its always still heartening to see 2nd waipo bedridden with no knowledge of things in recent years.. if I ever live old enough till that stage.. Guess I'll leave instructions when to let go.. Well.. Hope she rip..
Ok! Solemn stuff away.. Back to camp! This year's camp celebrated the 50th anniversary of zhsj too.. How time flies.. Celebrated 40th anniversary when we're in sec 1! Its been 10 years.. Being the 50th year, campfire was removed.. replaced by a presentation night in the hall.. more things like videos etc. to settle.. but things get done eventually.. :)
quite a no. of grads start flowing in on the second day.. even with Aaron being the special guests for the third day morning! haha. quite heartwarming to see all the batches of grads.. but also reminded that we're old! lol. most of them were younger.. haha.
hectic hectic before the night starts as usual.. ensuring everything's alright.. making sure that the guests are taken care of.. and the night start!
the starting was a bit 'stunning' with my mcs happily declaring the opening when the guests were still walking.. when its officially declared open by mdm sze, the opening video had some problem too.. haha. panic moments.. lol. thankfully after that things went on smoothly.. as things went on smoothly.. the burden gets lighter.. time to enjoy the night.. talk cock sing song, watching the videos final product..
as the video played 'Lean on me' with those images.. at the moment.. thinking how far we've come over the last 10 years.. thinking how the camp had proceed.. seeing the ncos improve through the camp.. seeing the piggies taking up greater responsibility.. all the flashback.. goosebumps lol. good thing no one came over to touch me lol.
After the presentation night end.. Stayed in the empty hall and walked away for a moment.. among every great things these days.. it always seems to have some little disappointment.. 总有一些美中不足的地方.. most of the times were thinking that.. "they should have been around".. its another event that was not being shared.. up till that morning I still thinking.. maybe.. hmm. but one thing they've taught me will be that somethings we just have to accept.. cos somethings can't be forced. though i still did some 'pushing'.. but I know them good enough to know roughly le la.. haha. i've learned to accept it.. 习惯了is no longer an excuse.. yes disappointed.. but i think that its just inevitable.. dealing with the disappointment is just one of the things that I've come to 习惯.. :)
well.. left this here stagnant for a few days again.. :/ more or less completed the camp roughly ba.. things are starting to fade from the mind.. memories without them seems to fade easier.. but those with them also seems to slowly become more vague over each days.. I'm afraid one day I'll no longer remember... but i hope not..
