lost something, gain new thing.

Hmn..still remember that i did mentioned about an outbound camp for my batch that i HELPING the commitee to organize? ya..is in the first blog in here that you can find out. Well, finally, the camp has just ended few days ago, (5/1/2008). Let's talk something about this camp, in "mentally" and "phsically".
Before i move on, to have alook of the pictures taken during camp, please visit batch5five.blogspot.com
Quite among of people think that the camp was too tough for them, as most of them are beginners for the word "camp". Actually, i did think of this before, which i already trying to make this camp as relax as they want. Ya, i know that some of the participants would have a mind set that they go the camp for relax and enjoying. Yes, i do agree, but wouldn't you think that the word "camp" is already told you that what will happen?
If you think that you want a very very having fun with no rules, no control by the organizesor, then i wouldn't be there as a "camp commander". In fact, are there really no other ways for you to make yourself relax instead of shopping, clubbing, etc. If you want a camp that keep on playing playing playing, then can you teach me how and what should i write in the report to show lecturer that what is the purpose of the camp? Erm..."have fun, gather all majors"? The lecturer already give me a "NO"! a big one! from what i told him that the commitee discuss why they want the camp at first. Talking about "gather all major", do you think this is one of the reason? haha..ofcause no.~
Anyhow, i still able to get good feedback from the others although some of them went back half way when the camp is still going on. Thanks for those who stay with me until the camp ends. Not to mention the helpers that help me on carry up this camp. Thanks alot for your helps. I really appreaciate it.! Thanks!
Common activities like, night walk, jungle treckking, survival game, camp fire, etc. are surely been held in this camp, but we have an extract game which is the paint ball game! I believe almost all of them enjoy it alot. Happy! :)
But, most importantly, they learn something in this camp, either like those how to survive in jungle la..bla bla bla..or team spirit la..they still having fun. Like what one of my lecturer saids, is how fun you want it to be, not how fun it originally be! Is all about people!
As i saids on the above, everyone should get to learn something from the camp. Me too, although i already know how to survive in jungle(i'm kampung boy). The lessonsi get to learn in this camp are more to personal thinking and point of view. In short, i get to change my point of view on something through this camp. I also did actually lost some important things through this camp, but i also did gain some new stuff from that, which i think it is much much more better than the things that i lost. As the sayings, "new things never get, if old one stays"(arrhh..broken english.)
And my friend told me something which i think is truth also after i had told him the situation that i faced. He saids, is easy to promise, but hard to carry. Which mean, we must try to carry our promises no matter how and no matter what happen. Luckily, i did practise it. :)
