Hunting the Monster of Ciawi..
On 27th – 29th July ’06, me and all my friends went to Ciawi, Bogor in order to do a Leadership project. I learned a lot of things from this trip. From how to cook and eat with limited stuff, such as tempe, tofu, and just one seasoning. I am really confused of what I need to do with all this stuff. Beside that, our fire didn’t work well, the fire was too small, and so we need to wait for a long time until it is cooked. There is one thing that made me suffer and really challenge me, which was taking a bath with very cold water. I never take a bath with cold water before. I usually use warm water. But there is no warm water in the camp.. So I need to use that cold water to take bath in the morning!!! Huhu.. its freezzzing..
There is 3 points that I got from this camp. BE POSITIVE! BE YOURSELF! And BE THE BEST! I started to put these things in my mind. It really changes me. Actually it is really hard to think positive in every session and activity that the leader gave to me, it make me enjoy doing this trip.
One thing that make me proud of myself.. I learned how to support people to do something new.. I tried to push Louis and Ms Indra to try flying fox, give them strength and push them to try new things and finally they do it and it makes me so satisfied.
Second thing is BE YOURSELF! Be yourself has one meaning. Try to not follow the others; stand within our own faith and believe not to follow the wrong things. Hopefully, I could apply this into my life.
The last thing is BE THE BEST!... Yes, we need to always be the best as we know that we can!! My mother always remind me to be the best, because she know that I can do all the things of I try and be the best!! Hehe..
To be a good leader, we need to have all that 3 things. It’s not easy to be a good leader. we need a good personality, responsible with all that 3 things. Be responsible.. We can start from small things such as manage our homework, manage our time, etc. I want to be a good leader, and I want to start it from my self. I wish I can manage my time and be responsible with all things.
This is my camp experience. I never do camping before. I like do camping. I like doing flying fox, Elvis bridge, downhill, rafting, building the tent, cooking with limited stuff and minimal food.. All the games that we have played. If there’s a chance for me to rewind all that things.. I really- really want to join it again!! I’d loved to do this again!! It’s was really fun!!
I wish I can achieve all my target.. I want to be more confident, more active in school, neat, organize.., manage my time and be a good leader..
