camp's over.. though it was only a night, i really hope the 20 odd campers that went for it, took back something at the end of the 24hr outdoor experience. whatever it might have been.. i was glad that dennis and zhihan could make it, and hopefully had a great time knowing new ppl and also showing off their l33tness.
hmm feedback seems to suggest that it wasn't tough enough, or xstreme enough. lol, that's a good sign, it means these ppl really are garung enough to accept tough treatment - something that i feel is really weird.. i mean how many ppl would complain that we didn't seem fierce enough or actually torture anyone.
well, for me at least, i perceived the theme xstreme to be a camp that is different. an eye opener. something that participants would be doing for the first time, that they have nv experienced. we weren't actually discounting their ability to accept tough treatment, instead we (or at least, I) felt that we wanted to give experience they could nv buy.
on top of everything, i have to thank God for being so gracious, and allowing everything to flow smoothly. cos when we the advance party got to noordin beach, the sky was getting kinda grey. at ard 3+ it started to drizzle.. and then just like 20mins b4 the first team arrived.. it stopped totally. and it nv rained for the rest of the camp, even thru' the night games. really, He works in wondrous ways. the teams finished the night games really quick.. and we were already heading towards the jetty when it was still dark. and only then, as we were walking back.. did the rain really come down (before that was a light drizzle). and even that, the rain only persisted for probably 40mins.. and everyone made it smoothly back to mainland.. in the cool morning :)
THANK GOD!
