For some of them, we got to know their hidden crazy personality and sure had lots of fun with them. I don't know is it because we are a small group, gathered together for the same purpose and no matter how stressful things are, we seem to be able to bond faster and better. Just one day and I already felt so happy since god knows when. I was able to laughed hysterically like when I was with my siblings, and just like others, we could really be our own selves without worrying anything. We learn but we have fun too.
One of the best moments, and I dare to say not just today but probably for the rest of my life, I will not forget the time when we were sitting on the meadow having some sharing time. Instead of figuring out what the game was indicating to us; I was more indulged in the beauty at that moment. It was 3pm when one might be expecting scorching sun and heat instead of windy breeze kissing our faces, but the latter miracle happened today. It was an unbelievable miracle I'd say. Maybe god was expecting our presence today so he prepared such an incredible weather for us.\
There were 2 rounds of the game where we were supposed to hold a basin of water by using only nylon strings. The second round requires 3 of the members to be blind-folded and so I was one of them. Besides focusing on my steps and how not to spill the water, I was enjoying myself in the cool breeze. I could peep at my slippers actually, but most of the time I was like half sleeping and the breeze made it as if I was dreaming. As I uncover my eyes, it was one magnificent scenery that I couldn't believe I have not explored at all after being here for one whole year! And honestly, it was as if I was led by the breeze to paradise.
During the sharing time, words can't describe how much I desire to lie down on the grass, reading a book with naked feet. It was literally PERFECT.
After the training session was over, most of us have bonded more significantly and got to know each other much better as well. Therefore this resulted in almost all of us going out having dinner together. I mean, we only met for the second time! It doesn't matter if they were in foundation or degree or graduating; born in 92 or 95, we were all bonding more and more for every second.
Then we gathered together once again to practice the choreography for our theme song-Count on me. It was tiring but I couldn't be more satisfied and more happy that time. There was completely no stress at all talking to these people. Like I said earlier, I, like others, couldn't be more of myself. It's honestly been a long long long time I haven't been this happy and being myself. Talking to friends without worries, I just wished this could remain like this forever.
I think at some point, the reason that we could be so close to each other in such a short time also because most of us are willing to try and volunteer, at least from my point of view. If one volunteers and tries, then the following would also try and then more and more, and eventually all of us were trying to make things work. All of use were motivated by each other to try and work. It's not a blaming game where one says "I dare not do this", or "I cannot do one lah" or "I'm not doing this by myself". I mean how would you know before giving a try? They say environment is your best tutor, and I won't deny these things does change me once I got together with them for too long a time.
That's pretty much all. I was reminded that direct conflicts might come and interrupt the harmony that we have around us but I cannot see that for the moment. So far I feel like everyone is working hard to make things happen and I'm definitely blessed to be in a team with people like this surrounding me and supporting me :)
