Back from Leaders' Retreat

I just woke up after a 6h nap after coming back from leaders' retreat!

The bath never felt so good and even the toothbrush and toothpaste was considered a rare commodity.

Oh and i shall declare that i have SURVIVED leaders' retreat! Hee. Wont say that i more than survived it though... couldnt take parts of the PT and all the walking and stuffs (in these two days, i have probably walked more than i had in a few months combined together!), and conked out already on the 1st day with my 6h only sleep the night before. It was bad and i didnt know what i was doing. Interesting i was quite awake on the 3rd today morning (which is also today morning), but once we arrived in spore, all my tiredness came back again and i walked at a snail's pace, cos' now certain muscles are aching badly! Heh.

What's more important is the principles we learnt i guess... unity, teamwork, discipline, alertness, obedience, and all that kind of things. Ooh and the application from then on is important as well.

Hee i probably never seen pastor mark scold so badly the "I CAN STILL SEE YOUR SHADOW!" line before... and actually i thought the instructors werent that unreasonable at all... i mean, haha, i probably was more unreasonable when scolded my juniors in secondary school lah, and my seniors probably scolded more too. I mean, sometimes the scoldings are necessary to wake us up to reality.

Oh and yes, during this leaders' retreat, i'm realising how far off i am from the mark that is fitting as a leader. If i had acted like how i did in ubin when the situations arise, i dunno what wld happen the people im supposed to lead. But wellies, at least now i know more of my weaknesses then i can start changing from there! =)

I'm just kind of concerned that once i got back to spore, its back to my usual life again... i mean, hey, after the retreat, some things got to change!

Yeps so i shall actively change some things now.

Haha lotsa other things like how mishuelle got a little crazy over ying chuan and stuffies, and me eating a slice a plain white bread for breakfast (which i'd not do during normal times), and all squating down all screaming "ahhh!", but im getting a little too lazy to note them all down here. So i guess... camp was quite fun overall! Haha. Fun in a peculiar manner lah, not the mainstream fun.

Ooh and YM camp's coming up soon! Exciting exciting! But i do hope that the 5BX thing would be more relaxed... muscles aching now so dont think i can do the crazy crunches now. But nevertheless, yay yay yay yay yay its going to be soo soo fun! =) Cant wait cant wait... oh actually wait, i need one more day to get my sleep back first. I dont want to conk out during YM camp! Must try to be on my highest energy level and have the bestest attitude.

I need to go poop now after not doing for 2 days. Eek. So gross. Haha. I guess i could have done away with that detail. So, ok, byebye and see you at YM camp! =)
