B.A.S.E. Camp

went with kinda a heavy heart + plenty of uncertainties and fears..

Nevertheless, i went.

was there on time; but my manager ie the IC was late.. saw a couple of pple there too... reali not in the mood to socialise and just wanna be ASAP (anti-social attitude problem).

but still.. (^_^)... (i wore on my best smile), took the initiative, walked over and said "hi".. introduced myself.. felt abit fakeo.. but tt's wat everyone terms "socialising"..

split personality =>
a part of me just wanna be left alone, be anti-social.. extreme introv.. this part is always deep deep inside...
another part of me, as usual, has many many things to say, cheerful and outgoing, always ready to build rapport with everyone and anyone.. extreme extrov.. this part is always displayed and takes control.

sometimes, it's reali hard to live with such 2 extreme persons within one me..
which is the real me? or both are the real me? i simply dunno..

anyway.. more pple came, with the arrival of organisers.. we put our bags.. shifted the furniture.. cleared the living room and sat in circle..
- the usual introduction session..
mostly 21-yr old pple.. few cutes hunks.. they are young.. at least tt's how i feel.. guys just goin to ORD, gg into uni.. not mentally matured and ready steady enuff to embark on this (part of their lives)..

- the run..
just a short run.. no kick for mi.. think only less than 1.2km.. but well.. it's not a race for speed.. it's a race of team spirit.. i was glad to be put into this group (we called ourselves L.U.C.K.Y. letters from each of our names) .. funny guys.. quite nice pple..

-bath den dinner

-address and interview by CEO
he is a very intelligent and charismatic speaker.. share the company's culture and pillars that it is based on with us.. most are inline with my moral stands too.. which i think it's a good thing.. there were interactions with us.. shall not say his achievements over here.. cos it's reali quite alot.. n it ll be quite boring.. just wanna share some things he said in tt 4 hrs..

"Where you want to put your stage?"
reaching the junction of life where decision has to be made.. Will u choose a safe and standard path which most graduates take or a daring step out of the comfort zone? To choose the 2nd needs lots of courage, determination and faith, to stand up to objections and bear the rejections.

"See what others do not see.
Do what others do not do.
And sacrifies are not longer sacrifies."
"When a life ends, another life continues."
"Every obstacle is a stepping stone to greater height."

Positive thinking, positive attitude. Sale or not, guess this is the factor that will carry man to greater height in life.

*thereafter, the rest were not reali anything interesting to mention so i shall not. :)

brought home with me a more assured heart, cleared many doubts and uncertainties. felt more secured.

a fruitful and worth going trip.
