Saturday was quite fun.
As some ppl may know, I aso joined scouts when i was in primary sch. At tat time I was a cute, TALL, blur person...
So anyways, yesterday I went back to help my juniors (lols!) in a competition. It was something like the national pioneering competition, but smaller scale. It was hled in the GIGANTIC premises of cat. high.
I wasn't the only alumni around. Haoyang, Jerry (the "emo" guy in the abv picture) and a few others came too. =)
SO anyways, as seniors we mus have some priveledges, right? So while everyone was taking
part in the competition, we went "scouting" around CH...
1. Haoyang trying out their "acrhdemis screw" (sry, i dun know how to spell ;p) in their eco-garden.
2. The toucan in their eco garden. Btw, it is ALIVE.
3.Some of their wall decorations. This was outside the toilet.
And one thing about their premises: Its about 2 to 3 times bigger than VS!! We NEARLY got ourselves lost in there. CH is indeed very well-funded.
oh yeah, about the competition, my juniors did quite well. They got a gold in soccer, bronze/silver(I can't remeber) in sour grapes, and did quite well in the other categories. In the end, they were one of the top 3 schools, clinching a silver!! =)
I noticed how each and every one of them were very motivated. When I taught them some basic knots, although they took quite long to understand, they were still very...dilligent? And none of them had this "bo liao" looking expression. So they deserved the silver... a lot.
Now I return to my D&T homework. (ARGH!)
Apathy (also called impassivity or perfunctoriness) is a state of
indifference, where an individual has an absence of interest or concern to
certain aspects of emotional, social, or physical life.
--wikipedia
In other words, a state where you are soo bo liao, when you don't care about anything at all.
I remembered that my form teacher once said , "VS needs more empathy."
And guess what? I totally agree with her.

When people don't care, its very frightening. It can spread like... wildfire. A few bo-chup ppl can influence a whole lot of other ppl 2 be apathetic like them. Its that scary.
Let's have an example, shall we?
*
In the South-East Rally Campfire, everyone was like... stone-ing. Just sitting there, doing nothing.
I was probably the only guy trying to be enthusiastic. The rest, especially MY SENIORS, were just sitting comfortably on the bench, doing nothing.
Do they think that its a waste of time? Of course, yes.
Do they even care? of course, no.
I think that some people seriously have to 'wake up their idea'....
As you can guess, that was one of my worst campfires EVER.
*
In 2 years time, when I become a sec 3 'sir', I hope I won't be like that. I want to have the empathy, the passion, the DRIVE.
And hopefully my hoeps will turn into reality...

you must be wondering why I neglected his poor blog for 3 days...
I was away for some sort of scout camp. In fact i don't consider it a camp. It was pure SAIKUNG because we were supposed to have a campfire on 3oth August.
Anyways, so it was abit tiring because we slept at abt 2.00am for those 2 nites. But it was quite worth it, 'cause the campfire was a smashing success!w00t!
And btw, VSBB came for the campfire. Unfortunately, only a few 'seniors' (I suppose), came. I was hoping that ppl like lip, jonas and joel would come. but that was not e case. =(
I was feeling rather boliao so I googled 'victoria school arrow scouts campfire' I'm happy to say that ppl thought that e campfire was good; gr8 to hear that!
