Back from camp... Reflections

Whew, just came back from the eclub camp! So there were no immunity idols, no exile island, no tribal council... Lol, haha! Anyway, really enjoyed myself during the short 2D1N camp. Although there were some minor cock up during the camp such as too little food, in general, i would say that the camp was quite a success. A pity that the attendance by the Year ones were quite low though( The year twos actually outnumbered the year ones 2 to 1!). Nevertheless, i could see that the June Camp Comm put in alot of effort for the camp, and i would like to applaud them for that. Really enjoyed the night game... the scary atmosphere was there and the mystery to be solved were not too complex unlike previous night walks i attended so we could really enjoy ourselves. Then only slept for 3 hrs last night as we had movie screening and LF2 gaming on the projector screen until 3am where i finally went off to sleep. Station games were fun too, especially hilarious was the game where we had to play chicken captain's ball, using a real chicken(dead of cause!) as the ball instead. As expected, many team members 'chicken' out of the game, but it was really funny, especially when the chicken head flew off while we were tossing the poor chicken around!

Well other than the games and night walks, during the frequent ' slack and do nothing periods', we just played cards. Played Big 2, cheat, learnt a new game called 99, and tried but failed to learn bridge. Then, during other 'slack and do nothing periods", we also played numerous rounds of captain ball, monkey etc. Of cause, we used a proper ball and not a chicken though, otherwise, i guess we will have the SPCA breathing down our necks! Also finalized the lineup of the 7th Board of Directors during the numerous impromptu meetings called during the camp, though i must say that we spent hours pondering on on the 1001 possibilities of forming the new committee from th 12 highly talented nominees. Sad to say we had to eliminate some of them, but this is life right, sometimes you lose and sometimes you win. What's most important is how you pick yourself up after a setback and strive to be better! Yep, as our last 'reward' for our successors, we tricked them but getting our teacher, Miss Wong, to announce a fake lineup of the new committee, totally stunning some of them. It was hilarious to see the reactions on their faces though some of the smarter year 2s saw through our trick as the same trick was played on us by our seniors last year. But we all had a good laugh about it!

The final hand over was a mix of emotions though. On one hand, i felt relieved that i was no longer burdened as a comm member in my PDP. But seeing that there will no longer be any of the weekly Wednesday meetings, no more crazy BOD last minute chiong meetings, no more of the crazy antics that some of us are used to doing left me sort of empty somewhere. But the memories will always be with me somewhere, somehow... Yep, so now that this step of my life is over, perhaps it is time to "step up to the next step": it is perhaps time to mug for my JCTs...But in the mean time... Thank you, everyone who have made this camp a memorable one for me, and for the past 1.5 years that has changed me to a certain extent, as a person. Thanks to all... and to all, a big thank you! :)
