Monday 24/7/06

School was boring(as usual)….nothing much….as usual simon ho our new math teacher(who looks like a student..and who ppl call gay) kana jack( is that how u spell it??) I happen almost everyday….sometimes I do pity him….fresh from NIE…the beginning of his teaching career….and he is already beng bullied and hated….sometimes i do wonder whether he actually realise whats happening around him….rushed chemistry hw for stupid kwang….although there isnt his lesson on monday….it all happened on thursday during chem lesson when he came in and said"take ur txtbks out…."

Many of us(including me) were like " shit……" cos we normally dont bring our chem txt since he hardly uses it and besides it damn thick and heavy….

And he said…" all those who didnt bring stand"…as though he knew beforehand that many of us didnt bring….maybe on our faces were the word "shit"…lol….lame….anyway almost more than half of the class stood up…haha…what a sight….so he was like lost for words haha….so he spent 35 mins of the lesson lecturing….he begin to ask individuals…."why did u bring ur txtbk?"….."why do u think u need a txtbk?"….."arent u all smart enough to do ur work without txtbk"…"how do u think we should punish those who didnt bring so nxt time they will remember to bring"…..bla bla…..when it was only 15 mins away from the bell…he said…."ok lets start the lesson now….I havent think of a good way to punish them yet….I will think bout it tomorrow…."

Isnt he just wu liao….wth right….wasting 35 mins out of a 50 min period…

so on friday he came in and throw us another surprise…but this time(only 3 of us)….he said take out ur assignment bk 2 and do the following exercises….three osf us were like shit….again….and just as he sat down,322 was walking pass…they just had chemistry lesson and i saw them holding what i need….the assignment bk…as i was sitted by the window…i was like…." Psss…..lend me ur assignment bk…..quick….." so i got hold of 3 bks and handed it to those who didnt have…I think kwang got suspicious and he began to go down the row and check every single txtbk and assignment bk….so he found out lor….and he consficated the books…..wth la…its not as if its ours…we borrowed it leh….we have a responsibility….he then said" tell them to come and find me if they want their book back"

So we conveyed the message….and guess what?….when they went to find him, he gave them a lecture….and said he will not return their books…..wth la….whats wrong with him….seriously i dont know…..and he told them to tell us to zap for them…..its like they always say josephians"man for others"….so when ppl do ask favours josephians are supposed to help right….so in lending a bk to help a person cross the tide….is correct what nothing wrong…..So because some of us didnt bring the assignment bk….he wanted us to hand up the work on monday as punishment lor…..

Anyway after school nicholas took my phone and wanted to play with it…i offered to key the pin code for him…he didnt want…so i was like fine…..dont play lor….but then he wanted to break it himself….what an idiot right…so he tried….and at the end of the 3rd time the code is now blocked….wth…and it needs the PUK code to unblock it…and i dont know my PUK code so that means i cant use my phone lor…..waste my time..need to call the operator….but i forgive him…I m a very magnanimous person..hahaha…lol….anyway matthew and wesley came up with Mr mat and Mr wes show a pirated mr brown show…hahaha….damn lame…..its the podcasts and trilogy or something la….for more details visit http://www.parowdy.blogspot.com/…. haha….. the post is getting too long….

So after that i went for track and field meeting at LT1….nothing much….thought it was humtump session but no….the real humptum session will be on friday….

Tuesday 25/7/06

really nothig much…..or rather I cant rmb..haha…cos i didnt jot down anything….nxt time i will

Wednesday 26/7/06

kwang came in with the new regulations, for chemistry lesson or rather regulations for failure to bring chem books and hand in work on time,he came up with….this is what he came up with…

1. Failure to bring any material = to report to mr kwang before assembly at 7.15 outside staffroom for 1 month everysingle,regardless whether there is or isn lesson on that day

2. Failure to hand in work of time = Redo assignment and hand in the nxt day

3. everyone to bring back all chem related stuffs after every lesson…..will conduct spot checks

I personally think the rules he came up with is simply dumb……just like he himself is…..

anyway after school has mentor thingy with gabriel where we are mentors to the sec1s DSA ppl to help them in their studies…they are our mentees….mine was very much of a coincidence……both of our mentees were in track and gab and i were in field…so together we form track n field…hahaha….our meeting place was the school beurel(library) at 2.30….so we waited for them…but they didnt come….while waiting for them….we chat…and I read gabriel’s story…..i think he’s an aspiring writer….haha…..he’s story really looks and feels like a story….his story is very story lor..haha….nvm….i can actually picture out the scene…that means he is successful….i will never be able to write one myself…too difficult…english noy that pro….what do u expect….he’s from TDP (talent development programme) English….so we waited……until 4….when we gave up….they will not be here…so we packed up and left the beurel…when we passed by the hall, we realise that some thing was going on….so we went to check it out…and found out that it’s the aero…bla bla thingy going on….the cbs schs were there….involves making rockets from plastic bottles and shooting it….ya something like that….and we were then told that sec1s were involved….wth….waste my tme….after that wanted to go and support my class at the LT for the humanities quiz….but then the back doors were locked….didnt want to enter from the front very malu….since they had already started and were like halfway through already……gabriel then went for his TDP chem….yes u r right….gabriel is in 2 TDP programme….smart right….have nothing to do then decided to go home….

Thursday 27/7/06

I dont know why but i am beginning to hate kwang more and more….this is what happened after physics SPA(school based pratical assesment)…..

We went for chem pratical lesson after phy SPA….we were already like close to 10 mins late as our SPA started late…so when our whole class is down at the lab…kwang arrived…he went in and said….stay outside…then he went around the whole lab checking all the sinks…then he came out…hey u( i dont know who he called)..go to 321 now and call the class comm members down….I thought what happened….they dirtied the sinks and didnt clear it…though its correct to tell them not to do this but wasting/sacrificing our time is WRONG….esp when we were already running out of time….So he PMSed [again]….I think menopause is close…had been irregular..hahaha….so the whole class comm of 321 came down and kana scolded then they clean the sinks while we wait outside(doing nothing)…according to him…the moral of the story…Do not do things u do not want others to do on u….is right…but not in this application…it’s just weird….

Anyway during math….halfway through the lesson simon ho said…ting soon pull down ur pants….the whole class( or maybe me) was like har??? i thought i heard it wrongly….hahahahaha…sounds damn wrong…pull down ur pants….lol….he was actually referring to ting soon and his folded pants that now look like lower sec shorts…..Bio lesson was slack….all stories and jokes cos 19 of us have to go for medi/health checkup….and i was 1 of them….I realised after the check up that the nurse was the same one that i had last yr…apparantly she forgotten me…she took a look at my baby record…mmmmhhh u are quite a big baby…lol…ahahah

After school was CCA guitar meeting or rather party as the teachers call it…It turned out like anything but a party….though the food was great…Image39

Image40_1 4 large canadian Pizzas….

But drinks….a 1.5 litre sprite…for the whole club 30 ppl…wow…..damn a lot….anyway after eating was the announcing of the new exco for 2007….the stepping up and down….It was announced "President of yr 2007 for GEC……..(background music…light dimmed…hahaha) thaddeus sim….then we all clapped…suddenly 1 sec 1 blurted out……whos thaddeus……damn malu….hahahaha…wth….7 months have passed and some of the sec 1s still dont know thaddeus….but cant blame them lar…thaddeus is very quiet….unlike me….hahaha…actually i m very quiet too…i THINK….hahaha….so it was vice president….belmond lee…no surprise…i expected it….since my name wasnt read earlier on….I wanted to be pres but than i figured out being able to clinch vice pres. when the cca is ur 2nd cca is considered an achievement….I think its most probably that GEC is his 1st CCA while GEC is my 2nd( janet kwok calls it concubine)…anyway the rest of the exco names were announced….secretary: Reuben( was a little surprised not bcos i think he’s not up to dat post but bcos he only joined this yr and is like quiet(maybe) hahahaha)….vice secretary: Kiantat……..Section leaders were announced too….

Basically heres it….

SJI GEC(Guitar Ensemble Club) 2007

President: Thaddeus Sim

Vice President: Belmond Lee ( thats me)hahaha

Secretary: Reuben Lim

Vice secretary: Lim Kiantat

Section 1 leader: Thaddeus Sim

Section 2 leader: Jare’el

Section 3: Reuben( i think not v sure)

I was so glad that i wasnt 1 of the section leaders as 1 of their responsiblities or job is to learn the pieces beforehand and teach ppl….and my guitar isnt exactly great….hahaha…thaddeus…hahaha…i pity him….after the announcing we were suppose to watch kindred but then our room cannot receive…got problem….wanted to go to nxt door…but then drama have part there…so co-incidental…..so we were dismissed early after some other briefing….went to check their party out….there were actually decorations…WOW….and it was lively…though the food(do they have in the 1st place) was ahem….and guess why their party feels like a party while ours dont…the difference is or the crux lies in the organiser of the party…Ours: Teachers….Theirs: students…..maybe nxt time as VP i will organise a PARTY….hahahahaImage41 Image42

anyway this is our newly furnished room( formal LT3…havent come up with the name yet)( it looks more of a dance studio…reminds me of ballet…long full length mirrors)

Friday 28/7/2006

During morning assembly we were told by Bro. Mike that Jonathan Leong,one of the singapore idol top 12, is an old boy from SJI….and he said everybody should support him by voting once while those in fencing(he used to be in fencing) should vote at least 10….haha…anyway i wont vote la….cos i seriously dont like him….i dont like his voice too….dont know why ppl say his voice is so that great…to me…it’s OK….

SS lesson nevina ho came in half an hr late….hahaha….we have half a free period….reason why she’s late…she thought today was thursday and looked at the wrong day timetable…lol….after school was late for track n field meeting….i forgot they push the time forward to 230….and at 2.45 i was still happily doing my assignment in class…so when i see the foyer empty…I was like "shit….."…the post-mortumn(is dat how u spell it)/humtump session was actually ok….it turned out fine…no one got scolded….just a lot of reflections and reflections…..after meeting went down to canteen for lunch than went to the annex together with yong jie to do the outstanding simon ho’s math assignment…was supposed to be done yesterday at home…but was too tired and lazy to do….dunno why….when we were in the annex, 2 mechanical technincians came in…..wa liew….stinked the whole room la…smell like salted fish + alot of bla bla….damn smelly lar….then all the teachers who came in was like" oh my god….whats that stench" then we will ans the technicians….so we need to open the windows for better ventillation(to remove the stench)…oh ya..timothy and friends were there too….watching match and doing outstanding assignments too i guess…..lennon and friends dropped by too….asked me whether want to join them for dinner…said no….its friday i m broke….haha…finally at 6 i finished the assignment..whooosh man….just in time….

Racial Harmony Day / A shocking day

Friday, July 21st, 2006

I didnt bother to wear or rather find one to wear for today….I mean an ethnic costume…Its like….I reckon it wouldnt be easy to find one that can fit me…unless i approach maybe shawn suran….haha…I seriously wonder where he buy all his clothes from??? I always have difficulty finding clothes that are comfortable(I mean too big for me)…Sounds impossible but i do have some….haha….anyway…I was prepared to give the answer" Dont have my size" if tracy goh do ask me….what can she do….this will shut her up man…So when i reached school…saw many ppl in costumes of different races…Chinese,Malay,Tamil,Japan,Indonesian,Vietnam,Arab….and many others…It was kinda nice….many was cheapskate la…only wore a sarong over their school pants…But who am I to criticise them…when me myself didnt even attempt…watever….So day started off with all the normal timetable which includes PE…which i seriously do not enjoy….as PE =2.4 or PE = 6 laps….imagine every single PE lesson is 2.4….wa liew….And whatmore today i received news that i wish i hadnt….I m down for real run….me    real run    no way…..so i tried to negotiate with Rohan…so i ask

Me: "what if i dont go???"

Rohan: "oh u must pay for the consequences lor…"

Me: " What are the consequences??? Is it heavy???"

Rohan: " No la….not at all just pieces of pink and yellow paper…."

And so he win lor….threaten me with pink and yellow forms….win lor…he good…and what more…I have to be down for all the 3 practice runs….and is at SENTOSA….and i m staying at choa chu kang….and i have to be there BY 730am….On a SUNDAY…..WTH la……means what? i have to leave house at 6???Madness man…..So now i have no choice but to go down all the way to SENTOSA on a SUNDAY MORNNG for 3 WEEKS….waste my time man….as if i would win the race after running the practice runs….The PE dept is evil man….

After which was SS lesson….and Mrs Ho came in at 10 minutes late and said to the class….."I forgot to get a relief for ur class….and i have to be downstairs at the parade square for the bazzar thing….So how??? Should i set u all some owrk to do cos the show will only be coming out at 1050 and there is like 20 minutes…."

The whole class went " NO…………."          (HAHA)

then she said : "But then u all will make noise if u have nothing to do…."

Class: No…la….we wont….we will be silent….      (ya right)

She: " Ok…fine..I wont set u all work….but then if Goh Poh Kenn comes around….pretend to do ur work….and if she ask where Mrs ho is….say i m in the toilet….pls…pls…"                (HAHAHAHAHA)

Class: " OK….set….No problem…."

Ting soon: " toilet do what ???"

whole class broke into laughter

HO: "…hahaha…..er…u can come with me to find out…want?"   (HAHAHHAHAH)

Ting soon shook his head so hard as though it was coming off…..hahahaha….

Before she left….

Ho: "So if Goh Poh Kenn comes and ask where Mrs Ho is…"

Class: "toilet……"           (HAHAHAHAHAHHA)

So we played hangLAM (hang man for 335 inspired by our "dearest" physics teacher Mr Eric LAM)….So Ting Soon and Elian started to give questions that are either damn lame or damn easy…..Bored…I went back to my seat to listen to my Mp3….And in the end…the whole class didnt want to watch the movie….so we didnt….anyway heard it was Hotel Rwanda….Sianz…watch b4 liao….

Finally it was recess time…Went down to Parade Square and watched the Sec 2s Talentime….haha…not bad la….quite funny….though some were retarded….I shall not mention names….then it was the  inter class costume competition for sec1s  and 4s….damn funny….hahahahaha….ate alot of stuff….spend alot of money…..first it was Thiagu who came with the Indian cracker stuffs…$1 i bought it…then he ask whether i wanted teh tarik….I said yes…If u can deliver…I was to lazy to move as i was in a very good position to view the items and furthermore i had a table to sit on…So he delivered and i bought it…50 cents….after that i went to another stall 2get Bandung…50cents…then i went to indian stall to get 2 of the kueh….$1…needed water so went to canteen bought Fruittree….80 cents…then i went back for a lollipop….50cents….In total i spent $4.30….thats like damn alot…and its without counting lunch…anyway there was 1 particular performance that really sucked…the singing part…sorry to that group…I shall not mention names…but they know who they are…To them: sorry but this is what i really feel….nxt time choose a better singer..he cant sing for nuts…everybody was like laughing at him lar….I give him 100 marks for courage….I applaud him…I dont possess that…. but for his singing…I shall not comment…

Recess ended at 1230 but i was only back at 1240….and it was chinese and the teacher gave out the comprehension practice we did….I got 26/28….damn…lost to wesley by 1 mark….after that was crappy PSE with intense card shooting exercise….

And the bell rang….school ws over…..Yea….And that means i must decide whether to go or not to go training….Asked many of the throwers during recess and before school….all of them say not going but there would be training….so when i come out of the toilet…I met roderick our throwing captain….he said there will not be training but must stay back….he said coach will be leaving singapore for China….and we will have a new coach….this sudden news totally shocked me….I thought he was kidding…this cant be la….why is coach leaving all of a sudden??? Nevertheless…Its true…..Coach arrived at 3+ and with him was an Indian Coach that looks very familiar…..Oh ya….He’s the beer Kaki of Coach…I remember seeing them drinking beer during NATIONALS…..hahaha…..both also have beer belly….but dont belittle him….He was a gold silver and bronze medallist of SEA games when he was in his prime….WOW….thats how i reacted when i heard that from coach too…SEA games….South East Asia Games…..dont play play….hahaha….so we had a debrief of the whole nationals….why we didnt perform that well esp the juniors….had reflections and discussions too….then in the midst of the debrief….another chinese man came along….he was then introduced to us as our coach….WHAT….2 coaches???? 1 for 2 hahaha….anyway he’s a jump coach but will assist in throwing too…I think its probably due to the indian coach not beig able to come down every session….He is like damn strict la…or stern or fierce….we cracked some jokes during the debrief…every1 was laughing…even the indian coach…but he did not laugh….not even smile at all….wth la….we will have a " good time ahead man…."….even roderick said….good luck to u all man….wa liew…..

After that we went to the shed to cleanup the store…then when we arrived there we saw 2 cameras and a calibrator that looks damn big and nice la( the sort of structure that u will expect to find in the science centre)….damn ….should have took pics….the whole set up looks damn professional lor….and we are instructed not to touch or move the cameras at all cos they have already caliberated the whole thing already…once it moves…they will have to calibrate it all over again….finally found out that they were sports science ppl from NTU….they are here for Perscilla….my female senior…now in CJC J2….i was like for what??? oh….she got champion for A div Shotput….WOW…. she broke the record….WOWWOW….she threw…11.5+m….WOWWOWWOW….and she will be representing singapore for ASEAN……WOWWOWWOWWOW…..I didnt know Perscilla was so pro la…i dont know alot of things i admit….haha…and they are here to take some very pro pictures of Perscilla and will be studying her….her inclination…her angle of release…her way of throwing la….damn shiok lor….so envious….the camers is able to take 50 frames per second….that means it will be able to capture every single detail of her movement….so after that we cleaned the shed….It was so so so so "clean"….after that watched a little rugby and went home….

Reached home….was informed that we will be going out for dinner…and its Jack’s Place…haha….yea…..so i bathed and changed quickly….and we went to West coast recreation centre izzit? someplace beside clementi stadium….Wew had escargot first…haha…i ate the most….then my main course was a T steak medium….yummy yummy…was nice and very filling…after that had chocolate icecream topped with fresh cream,some nuts and almond….yummy too….and then went home

this is all for my day….

LLTC Part III

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

Honestly and truthfully….I didnt enjoy the food at all….Its like…erm….who will enjoy PLAIN porridge and PLAIN water??? Not me definitely….but overall the whole dining thing was a very special experience…No doubt about that….anyway after that there is a activity that requires us to build the tallest building using newspapers and strings….and i was the only 1 who is free of all disabilities…and the only one that is able to speak….so ya…i was kinda like the leader…Trust me…Its difficult communicating without speaking….now we feel how the mute feels…anyway so we found a loophole in the activity and went straight into it…they didnt specify we cant make use of people….haha…So being the biggest and tallest one…I was used….I was like being wrapped up with newspapers from head to toe….my "costume" includes a crown and a scelpture…what do u call it….nvm…basically its a replica of the statue of liberty….U can imagine it urself…i m sure i look damn funny…wonder if papa bear took photos??? hopefully ….then i can post it….haha…but in the end they say we were disqualified…wth right….they praise our creativity and thank us for our effort but say we could not win….nvm…most importantly is that we had fun right? After that was the briefing on the journey tomorrow…my group will be going to the Metta daycare Centre…or something like that la…so we practiced items that we will be putting up for them there….After that was supper and Sleep….

Day 4

As usual we wake up for morning PT….but this time round…its in school….its damn slack lar….only stretching and thats all…no running….so we went back to our room and changed into full school U for photograph taking….after quick breakfast of fishballs and beehoon….we had to leave for Journey…all of a sudden stupid thaddeus came and tell me that i must go for Guitar rehearsal and i must skip Journey….wth right…Journey is like the most meaningful activity of the whole LLTC la….but no choice Janet kwok called and say i must go for rehearsal no matter what….so i had to give Journey a miss…I was like so sad la…damn bad…not fair….so i had rehearsals at the LT and PAC….Taming Game production….playing like a song that i can literally close my eyes and play without any difficulty…..anyway after rehearsal I and thaddeus went to the library to join the rest of the camp for De-Brief….Rehearsals were long and tiring….the ncc air boys also leave at that time for some spec course…poor thing…another camp….haizz…anyway they didnt get to graduate from the camp…sad….anwyay after de brief was showers….in between showers we had free time…and crazy sean used a small towel to make different "clothings"….miniskirt and bikini….haha…lol….the last dinner was damn good….buffet style but it was served….nevertheless the food was good….after dinner had the Solidarity Lasallina thing….where each of the group will have a large jigsaw piece to pen down our thoughts and what we learnt from this camp either in words or pictures….then we combined all 4 pieces of the jigsaw in service house….and we walked quietly to the hall….and on the route to the hall,part of the route was lit with candles….damn nice right??? trying to cultivate an ambience….but since our house was the 3rd house to go up, most of the candles are extinguished….why cant ppl just walk slowly and gently….??? So in the hall, we placed the 4 pieces of jigsaw together with all the other houses completing a full 16 pieces one…very meaningful la….In the hall, it was total silence….and the lights were off….rows and rows of banana leaves were seen on the floor….and everyone sat down behind one…On the banana leaf, there were 5 things….a small piece of rock sugar, a small piece of bittergourd, a halfed lime, a plain rice cake and a cup of plain water….It was supposed to remind us and let us think about the sweet,bitter,sour and plainness we experienced in our lives…and the cup of plain water is to neutralize everything and renews us and symbolizes a new life/beginning….After the solemn part of the activity, we had songs and trust me everybody was like damn high….we were like crazy…we stood up and put our hands on each others shoulders and formed a super duper long line….Imagine the whole camp including all the facils and teachers….then we jumped around and dance to the song and shake our asses…haha….

After the songs was finally the time for affirmations to be presented or delivered to everyone of us…from our facils, we received our affirmation bag where any and everyone is allowed to write affirmations for ppl and "dump" it there…I got mine…Quite bulky…haha…So many ppl wrote for me la….like 20+….and i only wrote for 12 ppl….I felt damn bad lor…So i decided to write for every single person who wrote for me affirmation….and thats like 10+ more….was lazy…but felt reallly bad so i wrote….and its a long one to everyone…taking up the whole paper…they should provide bigger pieces of paper…haha…so i started writing frantically…sean too was writing frantically to every1 who wrote for him…and then the teachers want us to write for 3 more ppl that we know better or want to know better in this camp…so i chose Jian Fei, Alastair and Hansel….I dont know why i wrote to this particular 3….but when i heard the requirements…this 3 came to mind immediately….and bcos of this, i received more affirmations(again)….and what does this implies….more replies….and among those i was surprise to receive jian fei’s affirmation….haha…great minds think alike….haha….he felt the same way as me….anyway i had a great time reading the affirmations i received….laughing out loud at almost every single one…and when i delivered my affirmation to Alastair….He offered me a hug….it was just so unexpected….haha..but i hugged him…..and he later on said i was squishy…v. nice to hug….hahaha….lol….after finally finishing all the affirmations and delivering it….I went to the "party" up at 334…and i was glad i went late and missed the flasher…(there was a guy from ST. Pats FLASHING….yes literally….showing his not so great..ahem….to everyone who went in….)It’s not as if he has a damn great body to show off…like washboard abs…and even if he have…its the wrong place to show in a room full of guys…what can we infer from this??? he’s desperate??? he’s too high??? or is he just simply out of mind???anway the party was ok….cant expect much right???Its an illegal one…there were some drinks, chips and chocolate….went to other groups…wanted to play dai di…but was chased off by facils….see what will happen nxt time when i become a facil….hahaha….so went to sleep la…cant remeber what time i sleep….

Day 5

As usual, woke up for morning PT or rather hw…..went to canteen…to do hw while they were at Macritchie….didnt manage to do much….was (like always) talking to ppl….was surprised they came back so early….think was due to the weather….heard tht they didnt even run….went there rain and came back…haha….damn dumb….so while they were showering….I went to tok to coach and juniors…..they were down for training….i hate bagpipers…..or rather its the sound of the bagpipes i hate….so damn loud and further more it sounds horrible…..absolutely horrible….Its like mourning for the dead lar….so after that was breakfast….and breakfast was so little and i began to bite my plate( not cos i was hungry)…was trying to make an "art piece"….hahah….after that was the final 7th habit….was boring as usual….was falling asleep when the session ended…..after that was the lasallian awards briefing….I really want to get the gold lasallian award byt i am lacking in some of the criteria…but luckily the deadline for the lasallian award journal is nxt yr….and that means i have 1 year to fulfil the requirements…..after that was lunch…and mega summary back at LT1….where we viewed a ppt where pictures of candid moments were shown….haha…..everybody had a hearty laugh….wish all the pics taken will be available to us man….I will definitely post it man….anyway after that was songs….and back to our respective classes to pack and clean up…..i was done in a jiffy and went to other classes to KPO….hahaha….

Finally at around 5 it was time for commissioning and closing for the camp….We each received a cup and was lead to the parade square where we sat together with our group and according to houses in circles….in the middle of the circle is a big bowl…3/4 filled with water…it is also the time when we read our personal mission statement to the rest of the group….and after doing so we will pour the water into the pot…my personal mission statement was the longest la….haha…So in order to not bore ppl i cut it short….anyway after everyone was done….all the pots…16 in total…were brought to the centre of the parade square where a bigger pot is….in the bigger pot there were alot of LLTc badge…after pouring all the water into the big pot,the big pot overflow with water…the water symbloizes something but i cant remember…..ya so after that was presentation of the badges….and oh ya….my LLTC shirt was nice but was very small….haha…must lose weight…so that when i go back to facilitate i can fit into that shirt better and not feel so uncomfortable(when even all the ppl i ask said it was fine)…..I m just used to wearing very broad clothes….then we sang songs for closing ceremony….where we again put our hands on each other’s shoulders and sway and sing at the same time….and then was home sweet home…..I really enjoyed the whole camp experience very very X100 much…..and i reallyX100 hope that i will be chosen to be a facilitator…..
