This is long overdued, and I'm rushing this because I have piles of homework undone. So let's get started.
Even if it was only three days, we, as a class, went through so much. Happiness, disappointment, etc. Just three short days and so many things accomplished.
On the first day, all of us were with our cliques, rarely talking to each other. Reason? We weren't familiar with each other yet. The waterfall expedition didn't help that much either. I admit, I was at the back with the rest of the boys and Belicia, not bonding with my other classmates.
For the first half of the second day, we failed at the rafting activity. The raft we built fell apart before it was even put in the water. Mr Latiff talked to us after that and I realised. It's not the result, it's the process. If we don't have a strong foundation in life, we can't even enter the race, yet alone start it.
Our instructor, although fun and interactive, wasn't that much of a help, and thus, he got replaced. By the camp chief, no less. Why? Mr Latiff requested for it, because our class was falling apart instead of bonding. Through only four activities, we bonded so much more. So, so, much more. Jetty Jump, all of us shouted whatever we wanted the class to know. Indiana Jones, we supported each other. It was really difficult jumping from each platform to another. Whale Watch. We were once again taught; it's not the results, but the process. We lasted for six seconds on our own. With the help of the other group, we lasted 15. But which was more fulfilling? Six seconds, of course, because we did it all by ourselves.
Rebirth was the most special to me. There was this huge tire, from I think a monster truck. We had to carry everyone. And yes, even I got carried. I was afraid, I didn't want to go through it. I didn't want my classmates to carry me. But because I trusted them, and because Chief Daniel talked to me, I went through it. All of them carried me, and I got through the tire. I even cried.
For those who aren't happy that we won for being the best class, you can take the medal. The medal isn't everything. What's most important, is the bonding that we did, and how we stuck together throughout.
3E, the class I'll be with until the end of 2012. I love you.
