ALRIGHT.for those who have no idea why my blog was dead for a week, the main reason was that I was down for 2 camps starting from Monday to Friday. First was a one day camp in Jurong West Sec and then it was the 3days 2 night camp in Boon Lay Sec. How was it? What was running through my mind? Well, here it goes..
This was at the end of my bed in campsite, getting ready for my FIRST camp working under AK. SO was little anxious and excited that I decided to snap this picture for a start.
YERP. OUR MOTTO
Okey this is what happen when you have "creative kids" in your team. Yah, thats me =.=The kids were to write down "I appreciate you because......" to anyone
and that was what I got. & all of them really touched me deep down. awwhhh..
Thanks CAMPERS! *huggs*
Here is the cohort photo..getting ready and all.
That was the sec2s.. Live Ops! was their theme. mine was OuterSpace for the Sec1s.
You guys should really watch this performance.. They are so adorable and cool. seriously! But sadly, i didnt manage to get a short vid of that. ):
WHOOSAYY!! there you have it!
OUHH!!! this was their CAMPFIRE NIGHT! it was the BEST MOMENT throughout the camp. AWESOME!
So there you have it. A few pictures will do cause it's not really professional to snap pictures here and there during the camp. So yah.
Basically, as I look back at those small footsteps I took as a Camper, camp instructor in my school and then as a Coach with Adam Khoo, I realised that there is much more that I need to learn in terms of crowd management, understanding others and to be like them before leading them to the right path. Handling a DEAD group was really a challenge for me. There was a time when I told myself to give up as after all..its about the money. However, I was fortunate to have other coaches who guided me along and realised how much pressure I was facing. So i believe that even a coach need to be Coached.
After awhile, I lost my voice and my group was slightly better but still dead. so GIVE UP? yes I did. I really did. I stepped out from my group and allow my partner coach to handle(who was a first timer as well). Believe it or not, i broke down into tears. Yah i know its a lame shit and dramatic thing to do. But what was running through my mind was that. my group reflects me & it will really be unfair to them if I am unable to RARA them whereas other groups were shouting and screaming almost every single minute."Ive given my best, yet why cant I see the results? Am I that bad that nothing elso work out to get the kids hype out? Will I potray a good image to my company towards the teachers incharge?" These were the questions. The questions that held me back. Questions that killed my inner sense of hope and motivation. I mean how can i motivate them when me myself need to be motivated? HOW?
yea. BoonLay sec was not that good school, i agree. but that should not be the reason for me to bring the light in them, right?
Ive learnt something really useful and it kept me going. it was "I cant change my yesterdays, i can only change my tomorrows" and "to the world,you might be one person. but to that one person, you might be the world"
I believe I did stretched myself and along the way, I will not hesitate to open up to any forms of challenges with an open mind & an open heart. If I was given an opportunity to share all those experiences and learning outcomes, I would not say no to share with instructors in my school especially because honestly, they have a way more to learn.
Something that I want to share to you readers is that for those who feel that youre helpless and felt really depressed. Feels that theres no other way that can help you out, always remember this and believe in it.
"Whenever you feel you are in the shadow of darkness, always remember there must be a light somewhere in order for that shadow to appear"
Just before you leave my blog and carry on with whatever you need to do,
let me end of with a question.
When a 10ml container filled with 5ml of water, is it half filled or half empty?
Think in a way on how&why it is filled/empty.
