Wad i have learn..

Did this post in Chicago.. decide to do my blog entry there. The time is er.. 12 plus? Newae.. its like I have been in the states for like 1 mth and I am dying to go home. I still got one more month.. I must endure..

Tat says that I have up level.. I wonder whether this is true.. I wanted to come and learn new things and had a change in my life.. but then I realize.. life in here is almost the same.. we do almost the same thing over and over again. I think the thing I look forward to is the meals. Mayb u may say that I 贪吃 which is partly of the reason but another reason would be that when u r going for meals.. it means that yr day is coming to an end and days are passing.. hai~ sometimes I really wonder wad I have learnt from this.. as in learnt something that really impact me.. is not like this whole trip is so useless to me.. the experience of coming here really counts a lot.

Well.. I hope that I had actually learnt something without me knowing.. and I am using it day by day in my everyday’s life in camp. But I do admire the people I met in camp.. some of them are younger than me while some of them are about the same age as me but the dedication they had for the girls is something that really amazed moi. One that really made me vv 敬佩 would be this guy call slim. He is one of the 5 guys in the camp ba.. hahaha.. he is about my age(maybe abit older). He is the maintenance boi that the camp hire. He dun live in camp but he drives up to camp every morning and wad he do is to repair the stuff in camp. Wadever things that need to be repair, refilled or removed, just tell him.. Basically he do the dirty job. He works only for the summer.. heard that he got a good degree or something or is pursuing something in the uni.. Well, come to think of it.. a lot of the Americans who works in the camp had just a goal and that is to make the camp to be fun and safe for the girls that is coming for the camp.. just a simple wish and they slog their whole summer. The pay is meager but they are contented..

Look back in Singapore.. how many of us are willing to do that? I’m not saying there are none. There is definitely some people out there working towards their goals and stuff but many of us are just blinded by the word money in Singapore.. If the pay is meager, the job is rejected, if the pay is high, everybody wants to do it.. I am one of these blind mice when I was working.. I wanted to earn more money so that I will have more money to spend and I spend my most precious holidays working and get nothing learnt from wad I had planned..

My biggest regret is that I never pick up driving.. and I regret even more when I was in camp.. everybody was driving.. its like.. a skill which is impt and I never pick up.. so now.. I have to think of a time where I can go and learn my driving.. and I also did not pick up some skills that my dad wans me to pick up.. speaking of that I haben collect my accounting cert.. think lost in cambridge liao lar.. never mind.. go back Singapore than think about that.. hmm.. yarloh.. but den I had my fun and i had learnt new things in Borders too.

Okie.. so wad have I learnt? Well, I think I am able to look at a situation in so many different aspects and implement the best ways. I learnt this from the counselors in here and sometimes also from the kids. A very boring thing can become actually a very fun thing if u use a different aspect to look at it and implement it.. dun forget creativity do plays a part.. budden again.. well.. this is something I learnt to keep myself going.. I am still learning.. hahaha.. hope I can master it! Wad else.. erm.. I am not so scare of bugs liao.. they are beginning to irritate me more that I am so afraid of them.. but I am still scare of it! Hahaha..

Woo.. I realize.. I begin to like solitary more and more.. I dunno why.. hahaha.. last time, I like a bus ride that is 30min and of course with my FM on.. listening to the radio and looking out of the window.. now.. I think 30 min is so damn short now.. today a 5 hour ride from iowa to chicago is really great.. tho I keep falling asleep.. but I manage to stay up and enjoy the country view and finish my whole disc of songs. And I like that solitary very much.. hahaha.. (maybe is because of the peacefulness of the country and the songs that I am listening too..)

Oh yeah.. something I learn. If an American or someone from the Europe tells u he/she dun care. Do not be offended or feel that u had offended someone by mistake..

Moi: “you wan to walk or take bus.”

Someone: “I dun care.”

Mayb u all will know wad they means.. but to me.. I tot I had offended someone one way or another but in actual fact.. their “I dun care” actually means.. they are fine with anything.. they dun care wad choices we have for them. Hahaha.. cool har..

And hor.. stupid moi.. tot Chicago is actually state.. it is not.. it is actually a place in illinios. Hahahah.. yeap..

Oh yea.. I going to buy tons and tons of food back to Singapore.. those that u cant find.. and I got a diet plan liao.. I not going to eat alot when I am back in camp after my Chicago trip.. I am super vertically challenged! i decide not to eat! Hahaha..

Lastly.. I realize that.. I am so freaking scare of the dark when I am alone.. hahaha. And I am not good in direction if I am in the dark.. tho I walk the same path for like 10 thousand time.. In Singapore, however, if I went to the place once, I can roughly go to that place myself liao.. woo.. it is so different here. Maybe in Singapore there is many landmarks for me to remember.. in the woods.. all the trees are the same. Hahaha.. and when u in the dark, worst! U dunno whether u had past the trail leading to another place or not.. hee..

That’s all folks.. will update u more..
