This camp wasnt anticipated by anyone at first. No one looked forward to the camp. There were 2 reasons for it:
1. They feared the hardship shown to them when Jefferson came to introduce the camp to us. They feared the punishments they will be given.
2. It was the last camp of their secondary school life. They did not want it to come so fast.
After the camp, the camp was loved by every student. Everyone wanted it to be longer. Everyone missed their Platoon Mentors. There are millions of reasons for it, too many to be listed. But I think 3Diligent enjoyed the camp most, right? We had the chance to host the CO nite unlike the other classes. We had the best Platoon Mentors who taught them everything they could. We participated 100%, we showed teamwork and we were disciplined.
So what if we did not get the ID tags to represent we are the best? What is most important is what we learnt through the camp. As long as all of us know that we are the best, that is enough. Sometimes ,the process is more important than the result. I think 3Diligent will find it the hardest to forget the memories of this camp, as they had experiences that the other classes did not have. We will always remember the 5 principles:
1. There is no failure, only learning experiences.
2. One for all, all for one.
3. Do it once, do it good, do it right.
4. If I can't, then I must.
5. Choices have consequences.
People, say no to the good so that we can say yes to the best. Everyone is something, but no one is everything. When life is shaky, focus on your outcome. The last fall in was the best fall in ever. We really did it once, did it good, did it right. The most memorable moment.
