3. HE IS SUCH A CAMWHORE THOUGH HE SUCKS AT IT.

8D

Petch oh petch, he should just stop being so mean and ebil to Brens! But apart from that, he was a really vital member of our team. Like, hello? He was the only one who could speak Thai fluently?? HAHA. So the whole team's really grateful to him for always helping translate, and I think that has gotten to his head because he JUST WON'T STOP FLATTERING HIMSELF NOW.

We're visiting George later! Supposed to meet Brens and Cherub (I'm so used to calling him that! OMG.) at 1015 at YCK mrt. HAHA HOPE I CAN WAKE UP ON TIME~~

Just did the reflections for the post-expedition thing and DAMN, I miss Reh damn badly can. And all the children in the village. I wonder if they miss us too, since every day is a new day for them. But I really hope we stay in their hearts, because the whole of team 2 here has them in ours. U___U

1. Lastly, Which parts of the trip/experience from the OCIP program was most meaningful to you and tells us the important lessons you learnt from it? (You can give more than one.)

The debrief sessions every night were certainly meaningful. I’ve learnt a lot from my team mates through their sharing. It was also interesting to see that even though 2 people were referring to the same incident, they had varying, and possibly contrasting opinions regarding it. I’ve also jotted down points which my team mates have shared which I feel can be applied to my personal life so I can look back on it anytime I want and remember, and apply it to whatever circumstance.

The scene when we left the village was also very touching and emotional. Everyone cried (even Mr Liang!), and I think seeing this, it was obvious how much we loved the place, and how much we were going to miss the villagers and each other. We have given so much of ourselves to the villagers there, and it was sad knowing that could possibly be our last time there. Also some villagers cried, and through this, I could tell that they appreciated what we’ve done for them, and that the feelings that we were going to miss each other were mutual. This really touched me because I felt that everything we’ve gone through, the challenges, they were all worthwhile.

Truly, that's how I feel. The scene when we were all leaving.. We were all crying like idiots please. And I could see the tears in Reh's eyes but he was just SO STRONG and he kept it all in. It was only when we were on the truck that Tricia saw his tears finally falling. D:

Okay, I'm getting all emo and reflective now. I just really miss everything, you know? And it hasn't even been a week! Like, I miss the team, but I can see them anytime. But the villagers, Reh.. I may never see them all ever again, although they've impacted me in such a great and deep way.

It's such a pity, yeah?

Okay, Petch. Now you have to make Audrey bread.
