Reflections for camp ehi-passiko 2006 Sequel

Alright. i m back from camp. from day 0 to day 4 today. it has been yet another experience for me. my very first camp was last june, when i was a camper, dec when i was a group leader, this june when i was in the games team and this time round, i was vice camp mistress.

i must say each experience has been an enriching experience and gave me an opportunity to see the running of the camp. each role gives me a further insight into how everyone works together.

being an organisor means taking the big picture in sight, and not burrowing into details. means giving instructions and not taking instructions. means knowingwhat you want and having an idea in your mind, instead of working out your final destination as you work on the process. means visualising what you want.

firstly, i want to thank the campers. without their participation and enthusiasm, there would be no camp. without their understanding, patience and co-operation, we would have had a tougher time. seeing them enjoy the games and the cmpafire truly made me realise again what i was doing all these for.

secondly, i would like to thank Mrs. Cheng, teacher-in-charge who worked with us. she could have chose to wash her hands off a lot of things. but she was really dedicated and was always ready to help us and go through all the trouble for us. and i really enjoyed talking to her. seeing how happy she was, looking at the campers enjoying the camp, further made me realise again what we were doing all these for.

thirdly, i would like to thank all the group leaders this time round. having to get the keys from me each time you want to visit your bunk, being really responsible and at the same time enthusiastic to provide such a wonderful camp for everyone.

next, i have to thank the 4 heavenly kings, the 5 tiger generals, the logistics team, the realms , the messing group and everyone. without your company, this camp would not have been so enjoyable. without your help, the camp could not have run on smoothly. without your witty ideas and thinking on your feet, the camp could not have been less trouble-free.

i would say the toughest part of the camp would be enduring little sleep ad maximum fatigue. but i believe the group leaders, logistics team, messing team, and everyone else were more tired than i was.

lastly, i just want to thank our camp mistress, kaiyi. she has been really nice and understanding towards me and i enjoyed working with her. she has taught me many things in running a camp, or a project in general, which i had overlooked. she has been really patient with me and i just want to give her a big THANK YOU.

and to all of you reading this, i would not have been able to participate in such a camp without your support and understanding throughout this whole time. thank you very much.

time to bathe and rest! Sadhu sadhu sadhu!
