Taeyang & Dara - perfect couple!




10:42 PM

So I read some of my posts in the past and thought that I was really a angsty kid, especially during NS. The present me cant stand all the whining and complaining that I did. I guess its really good to keep a blog/diary so you have a reference to compare how much you have matured in your thinking.

I want to watch!

HTHT sessions at the SCAPE rooftop has become a regular conclusion to almost every SOW outing. I do enjoy every aspect of it: the cooling breeze, the company, the option to stargaze (It is surprising to be able to spot stars even with the amount of light pollution the Singapore street lamps poses.)

The culmination of SOW has certainly run emotions high, especially after the screening of Wendy’s video and Glenn’s speech. I believe the experience we shared, the new friendships forged, the fun we had, could be not be easily surmise into a few paragraphs. And yet I do think I should pen my thoughts down to express my gratitude and feelings, especially when it is still fresh in my mind.

I still remembered when we had the first meeting. Awkward silences, reluctance to contribute ideas and blank stares in space. And how quickly it changed over months – members conversing excitedly among themselves, always suggesting a barrage of ideas that we could not come to an agreement, playful glitter in the eyes as they start to gossip or devise shenanigans to be played. ‘Scandals’ among committee members became common, yet they act as a double edge sword. It was frustrating for the targeted members, yet others glee in joy as they watch their continual denials. But ultimately everyone came out cool; as it was all in the name of fun and it really gel everyone together.

I still remembered when we had our first beach games tryout. Reluctance to participate, no initiative and playing among themselves instead of concentrating on the games. And how it changed over months – avid participations in countless pre-prep camps and activities, displayed enthusiasm to help out wherever aid is needed, cooperated with one another so the activity can be completed quickly. Criticism from MC members during the first games tryout was harsh, since this committee was entirely new. Obstacles were inevitable – venues where games to be carried out were unavailable due to bookings from other faculties and SYOG. Yet we were able to improvise and mature through the months of arduous planning, and we are what we are today.

Glenn once asked us what our objectives for the camp were. I replied: “I think there are three layers (actually I think I meant platforms) which must be satisfied before we can declare SOW to be successful. They were firstly, the freshies to create memories which they are able to keep, secondly, the seniors to enjoy themselves since they were crucial to the success of the camp and lastly, the committee to stick together even after the camp has ended.” In retrospect, I believe we have achieved all three levels, evident from the numerous posts on Facebook on how they had enjoyed the camp. I was certainly contented and thrilled!

Each of us have grown and matured in their own ways over the nine months. It has been a wonderful journey where everyone had fun. All good things come to an end, it is understood that there must be an end to the SOW committee 09/10. Yet this doesn’t mean the friendship and relationship we constructed over months should go to naught. Although some of us have plans to go overseas for exchange and participate in the NOC programme, let us all keep in contact and maintain this friendship forever. To my dearest SOW committee 09/10, love ya all lots!
