Finally, today I am back from Thailand after the long overseas CIP trip. Get back to Singapore at around 12. It was like so fast!The whole week of trip had ended. Still couldn't believe that time FLIES! It was like few days ago we were still busy thinking of whether we should go or not, then the planning and the start of trip. All was like happened just few days ago. However, now the whole thing had ended. All will remain as memories that will never ever be washed away. So.... Lets look back to the long way which I had came so far for this trip. =)
Still can remember the first time when I heard about this trip for the 25th school aniversary event, I was already very very excited for it... =)Then the signing up for Overseas CIP trip to Thailand, the long thinking whether I should go and how my parents will react if I were to ask them , and of course the worries and dangers of this trip. Then the interview, then I got in and become part of Team Temasek, then the planning and of course the success of the whole trip.
At first, my first reaction when I heard about this trip was a certain YES for it! Then, thinking at my parents view, fears that they will reject this idea, as Thailand was just hit by tsunami and kind of unsafe for me to go, I was in a difficult position of whether I should go or not. Finally the push for my courage, I asked my parents and amazingly, they agreed so certainly and support me to go, although my mum was kind of reluctant to let me go as she was too worried for my own safety. That was the start of my journey in fulfilling my DREAM!! =)
Then some problems faced in signing up, which make the whole process of signing up as part of Team Temasek to be postponed again and again. I was actually very scared, scared that I will not get in as part of the team. I was really really wanted to go for the trip. I hoped to fulfill that dream of mine. Therefore, I stood strong in going for this trip.
Then the interview, as too many people had signed up for it. Amazingly, my stupid answers, were still able to make me get in as part of the team. At first I was still quite disappointed that most likely I cant fulfill my dream, and trying all my best to console myself. Haha... =D One thing I was very happy, is that all the people that I know get through the interview. As a result, The TEAM TEMASEK is formed! They are : Jacquelyn, Ta Wan, Anavil, Sham, Erni, John, Jie jing, Nazurah, Adam, Nani, Nuriman, Licia, Melissa, Yuan Li, Nadya, Maria, Geraldine, Aaron, Rasul, Alex, Joash, Han Yang, Sam, Shermaine, AudreY, Michelle and ME. Teachers are : Mr OH, Mr Toh, Miss Lim and Mr Lim. Facillitators are : Fredrick, Jerome, Lily and Rui Wen.
All of us made up the TEAM TEMASEK to Ban Bang Muang school in Khao Lak for Overseas CIP trip!!
Then the planning for the whole trip. We did funds-raising. This was a long and tiring funds-raising for us.We tried our best and do all we can in order to raise funds. Still can remember some of the days when we work under the sun to wash cars. We never grumble, but only work as hard as we can. Then the days when we put bags and bags of foods and drinks in council room. The days we sell stuffs for raising funds. And last but not least, the help from the teachers in raising last minute funds for us and the sponsors by CANON!! =) Of course have to thank the teachers for helping us and trusting us with ur cars, the school for supporting us and the sponsors and OF COURSE TEAM TEMASEK for the hardwork they put in. Love allx... =)
The planning in order that the trip will be a fruitful and successful one, was also difficult for us, as we have to think of many problems that will be faced. Last minute changes, communication problem, venue of place and type of games and things we can do. I believed the success of the whole planning have to really thanks the teachers for helping us to build the pillar of planning for us before we started. =)
THanK You! =D
I am actually looking back at the path that I had walked. This is to realize, remember and cherish what I once had, before I continue moving on. I will never forget these grand starting which leads to our grand ending. Afterall, I guessed everyone worked hard! I love all of u guys!! =D
thats what friends are for;
