last day...
fianli it's was the last day of the camp...they had their morning jog frm NP to Sunset way...during the journey i was reali pushing all those at the back to run...seriously, pursuaing pple to run is more tiring then running alone..then they had to be the game masters n come out wif a game to let the other grps play...thus i reali jus stand there and slack to see them lead...they keep asking us to help them but all we could do is to give them advice nia...then we jus stand n see..hahax...
so everytime last dy of camp would usually end wif a prize presentation of which grp is the best through out the camp n to my surprise....my grp clinch the first!!! hahahx...wat a surprise...hahahax...
overrall i think i had reali learn alot frm this camp...learn to lead, to be more patient n many more....hahax...i hope wat i teach my those participants they could apply it in their life n achieve success n be a great leaders...all the best!!!=D
Qoute of this camp.....
