class cip is over. and life goes back to normal. no more waking up at like 6.45 because i have to go to yishun.
I do know that there are some things that I have learnt from this experience. I have learnt how to shred paper quickly. I have learnt that taking care of 7 kids for 8 hours for 3 days leaves you very drained. but perhaps I know now that i should be grateful for what i have. it's not the kind of gratefulness for the material possessions or money that you have, but instead, its the gratefulness for the upbringing that i have received. i don't exactly know how to put it in words, though. all i know is that i'm glad that i have parents that love me.
i will miss the kids from blue group. even the crazy, noisy, attention seeking one. it has been fun interacting with them. even though the camp commandant thinks you guys aren't patient enough or don't work well together, screw that. you guys rock, ok? don't ever let anything get in your way. not even the camp commandant.
ah. camp commandant. i shall call him mr x. initially the relationship between him and our class was sort of ok. then it started to border on overbearing and insensitive. downhill all the way. i mean, there isn't really the need to flash insensitive pictures for people to see. and that putting down a group of people in front of everyone else isn't exactly a positive stroke. and of course, when you ask people for help, make sure that it isn't in vain. i'm quite sure that i could have used that few hours of my time in much better ways. and of course, tahanability isn't a bloody word in the english dictionary. neither is patientness.
i don't know how the results express themselves tangibly, but i guess the class has bonded from this experience. there isn't really any possible way to measure how well a class is bonded, but if it's a good measure, our class has indeed started talking more. and we have managed to get some things done over these past few days. and class dinner! even though there were only 15 people there, it's a good sign. things are getting better for the class. yay!
and lolol there's the exco. i don't know how it will turn out haha, but we'll see.
so anyway i have spent the last 4 days of my time at class CIP. maybe a few hours at ikea, a few hours at plaza sing, and all the other time sleeping. i don't have any photos from this camp (they're all with mr x) and i doubt he would let any of them be published anyway.
anyway time to go back to studying :/
ah, life!
