"Everyday i take a step nearer to my dream......"

Bobby asked me the other night over msn, what my dream was. I hesitated in my answer, becoz my dream is so hard to put down in words...

6 months ago on Dec 29th 2004, I took up Arts Camp.

6 months later, with only 2 days to Arts Camp, I am filled with enormous and numerous feelings inside me. Excited, anxious, happy, anticipatory, so many so many feelings within. Doing my best to stay calm and control myself.

I always believe life is a path filled with dreams along the way, dreams which will guide you, and allow u to explore the meaning of life, and give u purpose in life.

I gave 6 months of my life to my dream- Arts Camp 2005.

For every single day since Dec 29th 2oo4, I think about the camp and how to make it better in every single aspect. Every single day. I mean it.

Sometimes i wake up from my sleep, having dreamt of the actual camp itself, and i will grin to myself.

Thats why the fact that the camp is so so near, keeps reminding me that the REAL dream is near, very near.

I was reading all my previous blog entries for the past months, and i realize how far the journey has gone..

There was a time when i had absolutely nothing concrete about Arts Camp except for pen and paper, dreams and visions.

Todae the stage is all set, everything is ready, everything that could be done has been done.

Looking back, so much has happened till todae. It was so heartwarming and encouraging to see all the councillors and house ICs working so hard and coming back the past few weeks to do mascots, bond, shoot video, house identities etc..

I cant thank these people enuff, becoz they gave me the strength to carry on.

Sometimes when i get so tired and sick of planning, I step out of the clubroom, and seeing the councillors put in their fair share of hard work, I tell myself that i cannot let these people down.

Neither can i let down my O Com.

That i must give the best camp to these people, and to the freshmen.

Everyone is in this together...and at the end of the day i hope this will be the start of a new beginning for everyone.

Shall not reveal my dream until the actual camp itself i think...Its realli hard to put it down in words...

This will be my last blog before the camp. Havent slept much the past 2 weeks, and the main event is coming up. I need whatever rest i can.

Sometimes i just fall asleep after lunch unknowingly...i owe my tuition kid too..havent been a very good or attentive tutor these days.

I wonder whether i will see life the same again after next Fri.

I wonder how after next Fri, the lives and memories of 400 people might change.

I m proud to say i have done whatever i can to try and make this camp a success for the past 6 months.

The rest, of what will unfold next, may not be in my hands anymore.

God Bless Arts Camp 2005- ARTSTASY.
