Well, I just had my three day Sec 1 camp, which explains the break from blogging. Sorry. Anyway, I thought that the camp was okay but practically all the time I had to listen to group mates harping about how sucky the food was, how much money they had paid to get themselves dirty et cetera(yes, write abbreviations in whole to make posts longer and also always give detailed explanations like this one). Philmann absolutely refused to sit down on the grass(was he afraid that worms would bite his butt off or what?) until they said if he didn't sit down they'd make him lie down. So, apart from that which was needed, most of the dialogue between my friends was about how much they hated the camp(except for rare ones like Darren Ho:))
Why are youngsters so cynical nowadays? Criticising this, criticising that. It's as if the grass isn't green enough for them. And there's no other side. In relevance to the camp, there would be no point in complaining, other than venting anger. But once you begin to criticise just for the sake of it, it just ruins your own day. We had to go through the camp anyway. And complaining would have just worsened the experience for us. So why complain?
Complaining doesn't improve situations. It just causes us to be filled with hate and anger. And living with hate isn't enjoyable. Why do people think hating is cool(or at least I'm given that impression)? There is no point in having anger or hate towards others. It may sound "gay" but if everyone accepted each others' differences and lived in harmony it'd be the end of our problems.
P. S. Kudos to Shan Wei for the excellent storytelling during the sec 1 camp.
