i'm back!!!! haha.... yea, i got back last night.... camp focus was great.... seriously.... it is definitely one of the best camps i have ever been to.... and i'm not saying that juz for the sake of it.... i really mean it.... this is one camp that i will go through all over again if given the chance... it was a pretty emotional experience for me too... i don't know why, but i actually cried while i was presenting some stuff bout my life story to my team members..... i think i gave them quite a shock..... yea, go ahead and laugh at me.... i don't care.... it juz happened, it wasn't as if i wanted it to happen.... and i also met many different people who have gone through so much in their lives that i felt really really ashamed of myself for complaining bout petty little things.... especially this one girl.... when she was telling us bout her life story, i juz wanted to bury my face somewhere cause i felt really ashamed to face her..... i've never met anyone so strong before in my entire life..... i salute her bravery.... and i totally respect her for that....

it was juz a great experience for me going through this camp..... i learned a lot bout myself..... i met so many special people and leaders in the form of my team mates who in my eyes, were way way better than me in so many ways..... i can juz try to learn from them.... people like sid, mx, hajah, marziya, yong tai, alan, xiao na.... sorry if miss out some of you.... these are people who are really talented.... they were always patient with me throughout the two days and even when i made mistakes during some of the games, they never scolded me or got angry at me, instead they were encouraging me..... that, i believe, is a true virtue of a great leader.... once again, i can only try to learn from them.... these two paragraphs is a tribute to all those people that i've mentioned.... Long live the HUKACHAKA spirit!!! HUKA!!!! haha....

as for myself, i think i did ok in the camp.... like i've said, there were so many better leaders in my team, but i think i manage to hold my own in some areas.... i was particularly happy with my contribution to the team during the last day when we were having the trialathon race.... *pardon me if i spelt it wrongly* there was swimming, rock climbing and running.... for the running leg, it was a 4x400 metres race and i was the anchor runner... in fact i volunteered myself for the run as i felt that was the only thing that i was good at compared to the other two..... well, i would like to think that i ran pretty well.... i managed to overtake two runners who were way in front of me in the beginning of my run.... i know its no big deal, but i felt pretty good to finally do something really meaningful to the team.... we came in second in the race and also in the overall standings at the end of the camp.... i left the camp feeling tired but motivated.... thanks once again to the people from camp focus....

oh ya, i found out that one of my team mates, mx, is actually clare's classmate.... haha.... how cool is that..... what a coincidence.... yea, clare's the girl who has been terrorising akil and sham.... haha.... today i went for NypPal's election of the new committee.... was helping to sort out the votes and all.... in the end, the so called favourites did emerged tops... but nothing's confirmed yet, cause the advisors will be meeting and we will have to get their approval and stuff.... well, i'm stopping here for the day.... take care peeps!!!
