[-Curtin Camp-Worth the Time-]

A few dayz ago, i went to tis Curtin Camp. Though as busy as i maybe, i said to myself to be in the camp at all times. With that, i stayed in the camp 24/7 despite having and exam in the coming Mon. Lotz of stuff happened in the camp. Through it, i learn a few words that i would like to share wit you all.

(1) Volunteerism: It means the spirit to volunteer without expecting any return. When i say without any return, it really means that this is a one way thing. You only give with your whole heart and not expecting anything back which includes also appreciation. Appreciation to what you have done is just a by product of volunteerism.

(2) Discipline: It means self control. The ability to command urself to do what is appropriate at the right time. Generally, the Curtin Students is a bit lacking of this element. Much to shown in this camp, both participant and the organizers shows not much of a discipline. Punctuality is one of the example of the discipline issue.

(3) Commitment: It means to put urself fully into it no matter what. What i saw in this camp is that there is no real commitment. Days by days, quite a number of members disappeared into thin air. For the organizing members(including), no 100% is shown. Sad to say, they didn't put effort that they should have into this camp. Only treating this camp like any other camp. Hopefully, more commitment can be seen. Commitments means that when you are in, you are and not going out once in a while.

I think that is what i seen(or some that i forgot) in the Curtin Camp. Although it is a "nice" experience but i look forward to a better camp next time. Hopefully, things will change for the better.

Disclaimer: Some of what i say maybe disturbing but it is only my opinion.

[ - A Good Death - ]

What is death?
Is it a process that everyone has to go through?
Why is death always a negative thing to look at?
Or it has a more meaningful meaning behind it....

Here is a true story to share with you,

Once upon a time, there is this University Student name Orell Gorge. He is the typical type of student that you see in everyday life. At home, he is sort of to say a good son and grandson.

A few months before he went away from home to further his study after high-school, his grandpa got a stroke and was bed-ridden. His grandpa is like another other grandparents who love his grandchildren. Everything changed since the stroke, the living room which his grandpa use to 'hang out' became empty. His grandpa is on the bed most of the time. Days went by, time became so much more obvious for his grandpa. With half paralysed body, there is nothing much grandpa can do than just to look at the same old ceiling everyday.

At first, his grandpa is able to sit on the wheel chair and watch TV. Days turn to a year, his grandpa weakens and can only be on the bed 24 hrs a day. A care taker is being employed to take care of his grandpa 24/7. Every time Orell come back from his studies, he could feel the agony of his grandpa. Imagine yourself, looking at the same ceiling everyday, could not move your right part of your body, could not even converse properly with your children and grandchildren. The feeling of irritation when you cannot get your message over to the other person. It would be like living in a different dimension of the same dimension. Yet, life still goes on.

Orell was in a dance competition and trained hard for it. On the night of the competition, his team lost. But nonetheless, they were having fun and have no regrets about it. After the competition, he got a stunning news from his home town. His grandpa just passed away a few hours after his dance competition. At that moment, he had mixed feelings. Normally, people will cry and get all moody and sad when death is heard. But, Orell felt sad and glad at the same time. He is also doubtful about his feelings.

Then, he come to realized about something. Death is not always a negative thing. Yes, we lost someone we loved so much. If we love someone, we would like that person to be happy. Death is also a happy thing. To him, his grandpa's death means that he(the grandpa) does not have to suffer the agony of staying on the bed any more. The family members does not have to worry about where to get the next care taker any more. Nonetheless, he still misses his grandpa a lot. The absence of his grandpa does touched the softest part of the strong man's heart but he thanked God for bringing his grandpa back to Heaven.

Death does hurt sometimes. But, if death were to affect the living negatively, the dead would not be dying in peace and happiness either. So, when something died (family members, love, feelings..etc). Look at it in a more positive way. Look beyond the tears and grunts. Love someone while he/she is alive and not regretting after the death.

Here is the story that I want to share with you all lar. Hope you get something from it. TQ.
