So many more feels for this camp than my own OAC, tbh. (Duh)
We've come such a long, long way. (Literally endless debriefs and lengthy proposals) but y'know what I mean. I think I've gotten a lot out of being in the OALB than any other organising committee because it (MP) really forces you to think logically and facilitate in a way that allows both you and the camper to reflect on your own actions.
Ahh just so many feels. Being back in kitchen again really feels good. The long ass proposals not to mention things to order and take note of namely ODC, catered, bread, fruits, provisions, equipment etc. and of course the hectic meals where you get so busy you forget your hunger and are up to your neck in crocodiles. "Can I wash?" "What do I do for kitchen duty?" "Where are the gloves?" "Are these the ingredients?" "Can I take the fruits/drinks?" And settling all the shortages and wastage all at once. Under ODC you have safety issues, casualties, time limits and lack of utensils, equipment and of course clogging of sinks.
My best memory... There are so many!!!!!! But what's on my mind now is having so so so so much respect for MP for rekindling the fire from a few dying flames by singlehandedly building her own structure around the cinders. Feels like nothing can be done without her (and Mr C of course!) and their presence makes up the bulk of the board :'))))) could tell they were so so so exhausted as well, way more than us but sacrificed their meals and sleep to pull through a 4 day camp calmly. Damn amazing debrief was just about an hour as compared to last year's 3 hour "eye-opening" contest.
Aiya just finally realised how amazing the teachers are and feel so appreciative towards them as much as I didn't think I would, I am going to miss the board and the teachers when I graduate hmmm...
