it's been 2 weeks since the end of medicamp.. it was a blast!!! i enjoyed it as much as i enjoyed meself as an m1 last year, maybe even more... n now for the postcamp activities, most of the m2s are helping out w rag w the M1s. fun all the same!!! :D
during precamp tea when i first saw my m1s, it immediately reminded me of how i was when i met my og for the first time... the awkward small talk, trying to put names to faces rather than sitting arrangements, getting use to the unfamiliar environment of strangers... it juz makes u feel so insecure. at least i felt tt way... anyway, instead of watching the movie, we kinda ended up chatting.. then we decided tt time would be better spent by giving them a tour of the med fac.. and so we went... a walkabout.. :)
it was perhaps the precamp tea tt helped, for during first day of medicamp everyone seemed more at ease w each other.. the amazing race went about smoothly most of the time n gave us opportunities to talk to each other more. slowly but surely, the bombini identity was comning together...
as an ogl, i guess u feel like u have the responsibility to get things going, to help ur juniors forge bonds, to help break the ice, to rara them, to keep their spirits up n enthusiasm high.. juz like how i felt my ogls were doing for me... this i believe, all the ogls did a fine job of and i must applaud each n everyone of u for such a job well done :D
as the days progressed, it was heartening, simply a great feeling to see everyone laugh, poke fun at each other, chatting away, screaming while slapjacking, getting along all so fine... gone was the initial awkwardness, the initial shyness, the initial hesitation...
what an experiance to remember... first time getting dunked twice during a camp.. such a mischievous bunch of M1s. tsk tsk tsk... bully the seniors ah u guys.. first time by weilun during one of the station games.. the next one by the m1s... totally caught of guard n taken by surprise! i remember getting the chocolate fondue stuff w charl at changi village, getting a phone call saying wanna discuss something, rushing back to the beach, passing the stuff to someone, bending down to put a new plaster on my blister n suddenly... hahaha i was jerked of my feet, felt my slippers getting pulled off, my specs removed from my face... and it dawned upon me... i was like uh huh... this ain't good... hahahha i had wanted to struggle but then tot better of it.. wasn't about to risk injuring anyone n also myself. later struggle until they let go of me then i fall down jialat right?! hahah okok so i didn't put on much of a resistance... juz screamed all the way down to the beach. n yes. dunked. unglamly. yes. soaking wet. drenched clothes stuck to the skin. yes. hair in a mess. laughing. yes. hahaha... as i struggled up the beach in a mess looking totally unglam, i caught sight of charlene putting up a strong fight against being dunked. nice :D hahaha peifu peifu.. couldn't see clearly cos i hadn't had my specs back but heard tt she kicked n punched. so cute la. so charl, tt dunking we reserve for another day ya? ;)
i'm glad to have been a member of bombini for we're an og like no other!!! i would definitely nv have wanted to be in any other og :D at the same time, i do hope tt the bonds we're forged as an og during camp would last a long time to come..
