Just when i had left secondary school; just when i left saint gabriels; just when i thought i would never be tagged again....
THIS HAPPENS!
i was really, REALLY touched when I saw this!!
When i decided not to go for camp ASPIRE, i had already decided to stop being the class "leader". Through my absence from the camp, i truly believe that i had learnt more about being a leader than if i were present at camp.
One must not have a "stigmatic" approach towards your team or class.
I didn't like the class, i hated them for doing all the wrong things at the wrong time to the wrong parties. As a "Class Leader", wouldn't i have to take responsibility for their actions? Mustn't I be the role-model for them to follow?
Qn:Were they worth my effort?
Ans: No.
So i gave it up. I gave it all up.
To my surprise, i actually felt more integrated into the class than before. I was able to crap with them, break the rules, bo chap.
I brought myself down to their level!
If you've read about my take on CCC, you'll find that i was bitching about the Seniors of the CCC were not speaking at the junior's level.
I admit.
I'm not a good leader. Never said that i was.
But now i feel like i can do better.
Thats why i was really comforted deep down when i saw that.
Its a reminder to me of what being a leader is about.
Its about not giving your men up.
Its a second chance..... to do something that i couldn't do before....
Its about you guys......
