im finally back from DE! ive got mixed feelings about this camp too. haiz.
lets recount my experiences during the 6 day 5 night camp. its gonna be a long post i think. haha.
lets see, settling logistics, chionging to toilet to 轰炸, disciplining the campers. goodness. stepping on junwei's specs, getting to know the team, rushing here and there. ahh forget it lah. i guess some stuff are well off remembering rather than recollecting. whats more, this camp is something i will never forget.
there is a group of people i would like to thank, for giving me the experience of a lifetime and being there when i needed them. here goes:
MELVIN: 老大! eh you shld know, that no matter how much i suan you and say i hate you and your jokes, that im just kidding rite? i guess im lucky that i know you even before the camp, and that we can work well together eh. thanks for being there when i needed to talk, and for guiding me along the way man. you know i LOVE you too. ahahahhaah. (guys dont take this seriously)
XUEFEN: 小老大! oh man, dunno what we'll do w/o you helping us to coordinate the programme and dispatching the campers. thanks for always being there to help out even though you were sick since day 0, and always showing concern for me eh. haha, too bad asking me to rest is not much use. XP
JOSIAH: ahhahaha. the other 老大! woah ure a serious person when ure serious man. your efficiency is really top-notch. w/o you to direct and lead us, i guess DE camp will not be what it was this year. and thanks for always being so open and directing me along when i needed it. keep mugging dude, and you'll overtake sharlene sooner or later. HAHA.
CHERYN: my twin sis! haha gots lots of things to say but dunno how to say. but i think you understand right? we twins got telepathy de. ahaha. i guess ure probably the most tired out of the EXCO cos ure always busy. haha. thanks so much for the food (although it kinda sucks, but who can do anything about it eh?) haha. and for all the concern you shown me during camp. haha.
JERLYN: one of the GALLANT GIs! haha. thanks for always helping out and constantly being there for the team, esp when im not around yeah. and for always remembering to help me take my stuff around. hahaha. dont think im a kaypoh okay, just that im really concerned when you got that DREAMY look around you. haha. and yeah, rock on GIRLFRIEND! ahaha.
HUIQI: mother hen! haha. refer to jerlyn's thank you comments oso lah. haha. but then hor, ure much stronger than both of us cos you always manage to remain calm and such. you really zai lah. and stop bullying me lah! haha. always take advantage of me when im being nice. zzz. ahaha. and dont worry too much about ure phone okay. things like this happen all the time. smile! (:
CHARMINE, RACHEL, ALLENA, JASLINE, YUDING, ERIC, (and all the other SIs which i cant recall): thanks for either reminding me to stay awake, tuck in my attire, or showing concern for me. haha. its the small things which really count, so thank you for being there and showing all your stuff for this camp!
XAVIER AND TONY: for coming back to the camp to help us out, for buying our supper, how much more can we thank you? THANKS GUYS!! XD
GROUP 7 GALLANT: haiz. again so much to say but dont know how to. aye, you guys are the best man. an instructor couldnt ask for more in a group. your enthusiasm, positive learning attitude, individual personalities and more made facilitating your group such an enjoyable experience. just as much i hope you have learnt some stuff from the camp, i have learnt as much from you guys. and i hope we will still hang out yeah. i sorely miss you all already. haha. GALL-wuh? GALL- ANT!
AB INSTRUCTORS (esp the log team): thanks for helping out the DE team along the way. we certainly have learnt alot about organizing and instructing from you guys. thanks for lightening our burden as well! haha. esp for logistics and admin yeah? tytyty!
MR NG and MR TAN: our camp commandant! thanks for being ever patient and guiding us along the way, and directing us when we go astray in our duties. w/o you to help and guide us, DE camp would not be the successful camp it is. thanks for taking all our feedback and comments seriously, and ensuring the welfare of the instructors as well. oh yeah, and congrats on your baby! haha. (:
MS TAN: my logistics teacher I/C! haha. im so sorry for your shortened sleep at night, and all the last minute work. and thanks for taking all the extra time off, and helping me even when ure sick and tonsils are giving you hell. haha. and thanks to ur other half too! XD
MR SENG: haiz. disappointed leh, my 鲍鱼 gone. zzz. hahaha! thanks for being ever fun and caring about us, and for listening to me complain always. ahaha. ur fun-ness and ability to handle things well really inspired me to be a better leader! but im not gg to be a teacher! argh. ahaha. DE 07 would definitely not be what it is w/o you as well. cheers! (:
and to all those i missed, you really played an important part in making this camp a better one. i love you guys!
im gonna miss being part of DE camp, as much as it changed my life and perspectives last year, this year playing a different role in the camp was just as eye-opening. lets all mugg hard and chiong for our a levels, and do AJ proud!
这些年一个人风也过 雨也走有过泪 有过错还记得坚持甚麽真爱过 才会懂会寂寞 会回首终有梦 终有你在心中朋友一生一起走那些日子不再有一句话 一辈子一生情 一杯酒朋友不曾孤单过一声朋友你会懂还有伤 还有痛还要走 还有我my frens, not necessarily DE camp ppl, just know that i treasure you all, for who you are and what you'll be.
