retreat for the soul

been to the retreat camp last weekend
it was a small camp with the objective to allow bonding with the committee
i was the first there as i had the key to the premise
when i entered, it was very peaceful
i prayed to the buddha and meditated for a few minutes as there is no one there
after the meditation, i cleared up the place and waited for the others to arrive

i learned a lot from the camp
despite the camp only lasted for one day and a half
it was really meaningful and it really felt that i know my fellow committee more
the knowledge that i gained from the camp i shall cherish and apply in my daily life
how often do you have senior that will teach you things that you cant learn
from your average textbook
to those that attended the camp, i hope the lesson learnt will change your life

had dinner with all those that attended after the camp
it was amazingly hilarious and enjoyable at the same time
was able to talk with them better as they had open up and not having fear
after the dinner, send everyone home and meet up with me friends
and head home for a long nice sleep afterwards

what i learn from the camp is as follows:
1. always plan ahead what you want to do and what you want to achieve so that you know the direction you want to go and strive towards achieving
2. whenever you want to pass a message to anyone, make sure you do it yourself and directly to that person and not through any medium or channel as they may messed up the message
3. sometimes when you work together as a team with people, there will be some that will do shit and messed up the rhythm or the project, instead of giving up or bring mad, try to turn the situation around and work toward achieving it
4. sometimes you are given task you are not familiar with, it doesn't mean that you should give up, do your best to achieve it and also ask for help from people that knows about it. do your very best to complete the task assigned.

busy week ahead
still havent started on my project yet
still cant clear some of the problems i encountered
but i'll figure it out.
logging out
