23-25 Dec: Student Kenshu(camp)
An experience like never before.
"Thrown face"countless times during that short 3 days.
But maybe that is not a bad thing after all.
We can learn from our mistakes so as to handle the same situation better next time.
Hmm..all those mistakes made are attributed to the lack of preparation on our part.
That's why the group cheers are so sian that nobody in our group felt like cheering while other groups' cheers seemed so special and unique.
That’s why I stuttered in front of so many people during the intro to our group performance on fun night. (btw, I got the script only about half hour before our group's turn)
That’s why I fell down on the muddy grass as I was turning round and round, with my head on the stick during the "survivor" game.

Tired…super tired…slept only 3-4 hours each day of the camp
But it's nice to know some Malaysian student believers better =P
Though sleeping time was sacrificed.
By the end of the last day, I was so tired that I couldn't feel reality.
People around me seemed so unreal…like I’m in a dream.
Scary right?
But I really tried not to doze off during Buddhist lectures.
Well…learnt quite a lot.

Compassion is to help people that you know to make the right judgment and not to pretend that you never see anything when people do something wrong.

Among the many paths of life, which should we take?
Buried in the many troubles in life, what should we do?
Nobody can give anyone a satisfying answer.
Instead of praying for good grades and getting what you want, we should actually pray sincerely for the wisdom, strength and willpower to overcome the difficulties in life and find the path that will really suit us.


Work is getting less stressful everyday…
I guess once you get the hang of it, you won't keep thinking of slacking at home.
However the down side is that, you have less time for TV, blogging, contacting friends, replying people etc…
Everyday, joining the morning rush really makes me feel at least 6 years older.
Like I’m working permanently…for people working in the same company, doing the same old thing forever…how can they managed it?
Work is so boring that I think I will keep job-hopping when it's time for me to join the morning rush permanently.
Well…I guess excitement comes when you see people when you least expect it.
Like mr potato chua chatting in Chinese over lunch with a lady at the food centre you frequent during lunch.

Or the elderly man who calls himself "national treasure" in the video you watched on the eve of national day in school. (The multi-tasking busker wearing clogs, juggling florescent green tennis balls and blowing a harmonica, all at the same time….And I almost banged into him! For his superb entertainment, he earned my $1 = )

Or when you were thinking " why is this person wearing shades indoors?" Then, your jaw dropped when you realise it is Fiona Xie smiling and walking into the office like a common person.
