ASPIRE CAMP

FINALLY BACK FROM THE CAMP!!!

It changed my definition of the word 'leader'
It's not just about making decisions and giving orders to the others
It's more like leading them by example and insiring people of a common goal
Walk the talk and not just talk

Day 1

LECTURES AND MORE LECTURES IN THE HALL...

Plus,learning how to sing the school musical song - "Reach for the stars"
I think the song's not bad

Couldnt sleep at all
Maybe i did sleep for awhile but whenever i woke up in the middle of the night,i dont even felt like i slept
My head hurts as i didnt have a pillow
Maybe that was also why i couldnt sleep well

Ate two boxes of lunch and one box of dinner
Night snack was bread with Kaya
So wanted to eat it but no one on the group was hungry
Gave it a pass though :C

Day 2

Woke up at around 5.30 caused i couldnt really sleep
Chit-chatted with Aaron cause he couldnt sleep as well

Then,news about people getting food poisoning spread throughtout the whole camp
Our whole group was discussing what could have caused the food poisoning
Apparently,we couldnt pinpoint one
There were like 10++ people with food poisoning so it's definitely caused by the food from the food supply
Had two portions of dinner and nothing happened to me
HEHE!!!My stomach pro

T_T
My buddy had food poisoning...and went home
I remembered the teachers saying "to take care of your buddy" at the start of camp
I never take good care of my buddy...
Sorry Andrew...
Not my fault right,it's with the food

So for all breakfast,lunch and dinner,i took care of Andrew's share of food :D
A full man is a happy man(that's me)

Today was more fun with all the scenarios training
Had lots of laugh while people were acting out the scenarios
Sometimes,it will go way off course and the teacher needed to bring us back

Didnt bathe for the day
Decided to use my towel as a pillow
Super comforable compared to no pillow

Scared Buan Heng about the 20km run before going the bed

Day 3

Can't disclose much because of the "Leader's promise"
So there was lots of physical activity involved
Something like playing "Suvivor - SRJC" but with no immunity
What's Survivor without the tribal council,right?
Yes,there was one
And the teachers scare us but telling us if we cannot go through the challenge we will be exiled-dropped from Aspire Camp
And that means no more leadership role
That was bull**** lo(is that a bad word???)

Guess it taught us determination and perservance

Then there was this ceremony to close the whole camp
We were presented with our "WHITE SHIRT" *holy music*
Took photos with the group people before going home

Day Three changed me the most
Did a lot of thinking about what a leader should be and what i could be in the future
Guess my biggest weakness is my lack of sense of urgency
Sometimes i wonder if my mum gave birth to me
:P KIDDING!!!
She's like the total opposite of me
...I think i got the gene from my dad

Wednesday CCA without Xin Yi the president
It's time for the challenge
