Hello everyone (:
I am back after so so so long.
Life is getting more and more exciting each day. I have so many things on hand to do now. Especially after the 5th YTSA Camp.
They are just great leaders. I finally got the feeling of achievement after so many years in camp industry. These 20 of them are the first badge of Leaders that I personally trained. I just feel good after seeing them going through so much within 2 Days 1 Night.
For the past 3 days and 2 night. They have shown me that they are capable of handling and doing big projects for YTSA. Their commitment, attitude, passion and interest deserves a salute from me. Despite their age, first timer and fear. They just do it. I know that they want the camp to be a successful one, therefore each and everyone gave their very best from the start until the end.
I was very touched by the whole scene that my group of Instructors are ready to serve. Their bonding, friendship and teamspirit can never be found elsewhere. I hope they continue to serve and lead by examples.
Well done Instructors. I am proud of every single one of you.

This song is for you!
The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core
But hold your breathe
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another dayI swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Your impossible to find
This is not what I intended
I always swore to you i'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may of failed
But I have loved you from the start
Ohhhh
But hold your breathe
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It's impossible
So breathe in so deep
Breathe me inI
'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
Cuz talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When your asleep
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Your impossible to find
Yes! To me you are a very special girl which is impossible to find. I just love the way you are. You will never make me change my mind and I swear. I love you.
I have been keeping this from you till your birthday.
Since the day I met you,
helped you to vacumn the irritating carpet floor,
brought you drinks in camp to prevent sore throat,
strepsils for throat,
visit you in camp though I'm busy just to see you,
carried heavy stuff for you knowing you have back problem,
celebrated your birthday though you might not like it,
cooked porridge in the morning just for you cause you had a fever but too bad I ate it all alone,
wrote you letters but there is no chance for me to pass to you,
made you balloons that cannot last for more than a week therefore I hope I can always replace it with a new one. . .
Thank you mum for teaching me how to cook porridge early in the morning at 6.45am before you rush off to work.
Sorry mum. I lied to you that I was sick therefore you taught me how to cook the porridge for myself. This porridge is actually for someone I care a lot, however I ate it in the end. The next time I cook you will be the first one to try.
It has been weeks. . . I really miss her and hope to see her one day. . .
Monday, August 04, 2008
I really don't know what to do?
I might look calm on the outside but inside I am feeling damn depressed.
I just need a break
Don't be lame and offer me a Kit Kat. I'll will kill you! hahaha...
Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough . . .
Sunday, July 27, 2008
I have no regrets...
I hope 1 day I will be able to see them again.

The road is long, the journey is tiring, the feeling of lost and no confidence, the fear of rejection and confession.

I have no idea what to do...
The feeling of empty.
If I know that would happened. I won't have said a single thing...

Time can never be back again.
It has been 6 weeks in MGS for me. Sadly I have to leave soon.
Is my dream to become a PE Teacher one day. Now, I finally have a taste and feel of what teaching is like which I really enjoy it.
I can't really express out my feelings to all my beloved students. Perhaps this song will help me express out all my feelings.
1T, 2D, 2S, 3M, 3S, 4D and 4I
First of all let me apologise to several classes that I always wanted to but I don't have the chance to do so.
3M - If you remembered the first lesson you had with me. I really hope you understand why I shouted at everyone. You can choose hate me because I have scolded you. You can choose to hate me because I force you to run. Have you ever know why?
I just want to help everybody to train up your fitness before your 2.4km. Thats all I want and by doing that I ran with you. I ran with you because you might feel better because the teacher is running with you just to avoid the track for 8 rounds.
Maybe you don't see the reason why you should appreciate all the efforts that I put in for your class. I hope you have learnt your lesson yeah.
Well... I won't be having anymore lesson with your class. Hope you have enjoyed my lesson in the past and take care. Remember girls, I have never regret taking your class (:
2S - Thanks for the birthday song and cake. I really appreciate it. That was the day I am damn pissed with your class. In terms of your attitude and training. I just feel that am I not doing my job or my training is boring?
Maybe you find it useless so you don't make a point to train. Some of you really pissed me of at times just that I kept quiet.
I have heard many stories about 2S, be it negative or positive. complaints and complaints all about 2S.
How sad can that be... Did I give up on your class? I don't care what others think about you. To me you will always be 2S with the attitude you own and it will always be you no matter what. I believe you can be as good as other classes just that you choose not to.
Remember what I wrote in the paper. You will always be the class of mine that contain lots of love and joy. Hope I have done my best to teach and guide you during the past 6 weeks. I hope you will be good to other teachers too and I will definately missed 2S.
1T, 2D, 3S, 4D and 4I - Just a few words to these 5 classes. You have been great and I believe most of you and infact everyone passed your Napfa. I'm sorry if I have been hushed on you girls during PE and I sincerely apologise.
Well even if I want to scold you I might not have the chance again. My teaching gonna end soon and back to my studies. I will definately missed all of you.
MGS MGS MGS - I am gonna missed the morning assembly, missed listening you singing your school song, missed singing during chapel, missed the running with you during lesson, missed your laughter, missed playing badminton, missed playing basketball, missed your jokes you said to me, missed being called Mister Chong, missed the fun we had, missed the precious time in MGS and seriously I missed everyone in MGS including all the teachers and staff. I missed teaching
From the first day of school when I stepped into MGS. I had a weird feeling. I do not know how am I going to survive for my 8 weeks stay in MGS.
Sometime when I saw and read comment from student about me I was a bit upset maybe I am not doing my best or I am just putting the blame on the student. I don't know?
Maybe I am really too young to be a teacher. Is that good or bad? I have no idea too.
2 weeks left for me and I gonna wave goodbye to MGS. I hope I can have a picture of all my classes before I leave. So that when I think of them I can refer to the pictures.
I have never regret coming to MGS
Let this be the best memories I ever had in my whole entire life.
Don't cry because is over, Smile because it happened.

I will be posting my story in Shanghai soon when I got the time yeah. (:
I am too busy because I got to do some self reflection. Thats quite sad course I am a person that used to train LEADERS, INSPIRE PEOPLE and MOTIVATE OTHERS. Yet I have to make a point that I am actually not very good.
Thanks to my DIE HARD FANS. I'm sorry because I don't really know who are you and yet you keep tagging and tagging whereby I don't give a damn to reply you. I SINCERELY APOLOGISE. I know you don't like me to BOLD my WORDS and COLOUR IT but I'm sorry again cause I find it quite nice and CUTE.
Oh ya by the way, just to let my DIE HARD FANS know something. This is my blog, if you really love to tag my blog or chat with me. Why not you post it in my entry. That will be great isn't it? I guess you are more than happy to do it for me because I think you need a blog to post an entry, if not you would'nt keep tagging my blog.
I SINCERELY THANK YOU for being so NICE to me. Your COMPLIMENTS are definitely better than my AWARDS and TESTIMONIALS I have gotten in School and National Level.
Do tell me If I am too arrogant in times or always because I can't control myself. I need FANS like you to tell me. Really APPRECIATE your help once again for your PERSERVERANCE and DETERMINATION for chatting with me.
I think I owe you a lot seriously. I can't give you much but since you mentioned about my EX GIRLFRIEND. I think you suits her better than me. You can sure win her heart because you are such a NICE, COOL, HUMBLE and GENTLEMAN.
I hope you won't find me sarcastic. If she falls for you I believe she has her own reason but if she doesn't. I can only say EXPECTED!
Yours SINCERELY
MELVIN CHONG
This Entry is DEDICATED to this SPECIAL SOMEONE who I have not met. Thanks for everything. This ENTRY IS SPECIALLY FOR YOU. MUACK!
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
Oh ya! Before I leave I would like to dedicate this song to everyone out there that is having troubles, difficulties, relationship problems, family problems and stressed because of your exams.
I believe we all have dreams and we all want it to come true one day. This song is about us seeing little red dragonfly as our motivation. We want to be like a little red dragonfly and in time to come, we grow up step by step to be strong and fly as high as we can to achieve our dreams.
红蜻蜓
词：长郑刚 曲：李子恒 演唱：小虎队
飞呀 飞呀
看那红色蜻蜓飞在蓝色天空
游戏在风中不断追逐他的梦
天空是永恒的家 大地就是他的王国
飞翔是生活
我们的童年也像追逐成长吹来的风
轻轻地吹着梦想 慢慢地升空
红色的蜻蜓是我小时侯的小小英雄
多希望有一天能和他一起飞
当烦恼愈来愈多 玻璃弹珠愈来愈少
我知道我已慢慢地长大了
红色的蜻蜓曾几何时
也在我岁月慢慢不见了
我们都已经长大 好多梦正在飞
就像童年看到地红色的蜻蜓
我们都已经长大 好多梦还要飞
就像现在心目中红色的蜻蜓
(music)

Wow... Finally everythings over. Yeah.. Time to FLY! ! ! haha..
Just finished 3 camps in September. CDAC, West 2 Cluster and Overseas Family School. These 3 schools rock like hell man. They are all fun loving people and especially OFS they are super super cute. haha...
OFS kids I really knee down and salute their attitude. They were the best people I ever met in my life.
Abseiling: A girl hair got stuck when she came down. She didn't cry but she did her best to solve it herself.
Abseiling: A boy hair got stuck and hung in the middle. He cried, but when he came down, He wiped off his tears and said: Mr Melvin, I wanna go again! I said sure. You are most welcome (:
To me Singaporean kids sure cry and the next thing will happen is COMPLAINT! For sure!
Campfire Preparation: Teacher doing it with the students. I believe this should be the way for local school as well because this really help the teacher to bond with the students closer and also help the teacher to understand their kids more.
Singaporean will always be Singaporean. 3K for them: KIA SU ' Scare Lose ', KIA SI ' Scare Die ' and KIA LANG ' Scary '.
Singapore school will always make sure what they paid for is worth everything and make sure they used it all up. Unlike International Schools, they are much more better in terms of their thinking. Their kids are much more better in terms of their Attitude.

Not to say that Singapore kids are no good, they are too pampered by their parents but I believe Teachers and parents play a very big and important role in their lives for influencing. A student attitude can also determine the teachers and their parents attitude.

Despite being a Normal Technical Student in Fajar Secondary School.
Despite being a Normal Technical Student in Fajar Secondary School.
Here are my True Personal Life Story of how relationship changed me. . .
I used to be a super notorious student like those Chao Ah Beng kind when I was in sec1. I was smart enough that I didn’t smoke because all my friends smoke and I didn’t. I am not easy influence by people. I can say that I was those top 5 notorious students in my school.
Then in sec2, I want to change. I want to be a Peer Leader in my school but I know that is impossible for me to become because of my bad behavior. Nevertheless I tried. I mix with a group of friends who are role models to me. Then I begin to change, and slowly I start to fall in love with this girl I met.
Is all because of Relationship I changed a lot. My behavior was getting better and better, not much of attitude problem. My results are improving.
All because of a girl I love therefore I have aims for myself in life!

I mix with a group of friends who are role models to me. Then I begin to change, and slowly I start to fall in love with this girl I met.
Is all because of Relationship I changed a lot. My behavior was getting better and better, not much of attitude problem. My results are improving.
All because of a girl I love therefore I have aims for myself in life!
Why?
I know that a girl won't fall in love with a guy who is so childish and immature couldn't be bother kind. So I gave a thought to myself and I want to change because of her if shes gonna accept me.
Soon in October, I was selected to go for an interview for Peer Leader. Then I went through camp and I made it.
I was appointed as Peer Leader in Sec3 and being the only Normal Technical Student among all. In April 2005 before I leave Singapore to Malaysia, She agreed to be with me. I am in a relationship with the girl I fond of. I was really happy. The mood that I am having is like if I have a choice don’t want to leave Singapore. When I was in Malaysia I called back to Singapore and chat with her whenever I am free at night. Our relationship went smoothly.
I got lots and lots of responsibilities in time to come. I was appointed as a Junior Councillor in North West CDC. That was during sec3. It has only been a year. I was a different person compared to Sec1. A drastically changes in me.
Then in Sec4
I was awarded the Outstanding All-Rounder Student Award. Only 5 people in my secondary school received this award in the North West District. I dream also never though that I will receive this award.
I felt very honoured because my teacher and principal told me that I am the first NORMAL TECHNICAL STUDENT to receive this award. I was very happy. Till now not only my Attitude, Behavior and Character changed
My studies improved too! I was awarded Scholarship Award ever since Sec2 onwards till now. Getting Award you must get at least a Good in your conduct.
I won the Sporting Singapore Inspirational Award "Bronze" under the Youth Individual Category. My hard work really paid me for this.
Although I already broke off with my girlfriend for more than a year.
She have found a boyfriend and hopefully she is doing well for her O level now
So yeah!
Relationship has gotten me into what I am today.
My school teacher, my sec school DM, she actually shared my life story during the MOE Excel day to the public and to my secondary school students.
Now my mental and thinking are stronger than before
Though I am single now.
I hope people get into relationship is for true love and not to fool around.
I gave talk to all my Sec1s and Sec2s last year class by class and I also gave a farewell speech during my Prom Night. I cried because I really thank all my friends who have helped me through all these years. My teachers too!
My ex girlfriend was there during the prom night cause she is part of the organising committee.
So yeah
I didn’t say that I broke off with my girlfriend during the speech and I guess everyone knows about it including my principal.
Is a great feeling that I can't express it when I am with her, without her I think up till now my parents are still very worried about me because I might be getting from bad to worst all because of relationship I changed!
I achieved all my aims.
Can you tell how much I love her?
I feel that she was selfish towards me. In a relationship we must not be selfish not even your partner. Both parties got to contribute so that we can maintain the relationship. Maybe it was my fault too. I was at wrong and I did hurt her sometimes. I am really sorry. I know there is no point saying sorry now. Its over. . .
Always love the person for who he/she is.
During that period of time, it was my N levels. It is very important to me and I found out that she changed in terms of her character. I never raised my voice at her before.
Never!!!
I keep telling her nicely why and what is wrong. Why she hate school out of sudden. I was very stress because teachers would always ask me to encourage her to study. I tried but I think I failed. Teachers told me bad about her. She just refused to listen to my advised and she even said that if that is the case then we shall not be together. Then you will have no more complaints.
I really want to just walk away but I really love her a lot therefore I just kept quiet and send her to the bus stop.
I reached home, my tears were flowing down. I do not know what happened to her. She told me that she want to break up with me at night. I agreed. I said sure, If that is your choice, I can't stop you.
We broke up just the week before my Exams. I was feeling terrible but I don’t have a choice. I know that my exams are more important now so I tired my best to forget it and take a deep breath.
I said to her
No matter what I will still love you though we are not together.
We are still friends now. We do talk to each other sometimes.
We broke up on 3 Sep 2005 last year and I went to read her blog entry on the 2 Sep 2006.
This is what she said:
Already one year passed. lol. I'm not sure if he notices it. Maybe to others, I'm the bad girl who takes people for granted and I admit that I did so last time. I should have given him a chance to speak that day.
Well, everything is over right now and I'm the one who ruined everything.
Because I don't know and don't understand what's in his mind, and maybe he too . I mean what for saying himself until so noble? That's just an excuse, isn't it?
Maybe it's like what they say, I'll sometimes get sad is just because of those memories we've had together. Guess I'm too silly to think that we might get together again one day. I shouldn't think too much. =)
Well…
What were left behind were those wonderful memories and what I am feeling now is only regrets.
Last time I used to share all my wonderful memories with my girlfriend. But now all the happiness moment I have recently are share with me and my friends.
Relationship is actually a feeling that everyone might go through during your school days and in life.
True Loves make a difference in you and Unfaithful Loves give you pain.
It wasn't easy for me to go after my girlfriend as I spent around 6 months or more to actually understand her before we are together.
Now she has found herself a boyfriend. I don’t want to wish her all the best and treasure her boyfriend like you never did is because I afraid she might imagine other things and I am afraid I might distract her in her O levels now,
So yeah
Loving a person is to let the person have his/her own freedom.
I don’t want to find a girlfriend before she found herself a boyfriend though I tried to find girls that I like but in the end I just forget about it.
I feel that girls nowadays are too demanding maybe? Not all.. I don’t really have the good points or quality that they want. Expectations are too high? I don’t have looks and maybe because I am from ITE? I don’t know.
I don’t want to find a girlfriend before she found herself a boyfriend is because I don’t want her to feel hurt.
I rather take the pain myself therefore till now I am still single . . .
Is LOVE really that noble? I guessed so.
Although I already broke off with my girlfriend for more than a year.
She have found a boyfriend and hopefully she is doing well for her O level now
So yeah!
Relationship has gotten me into what I am today.
My school teacher, my sec school DM, she actually shared my life story during the MOE Excel day to the public and to my secondary school students.
Now my mental and thinking are stronger than before
Though I am single now.
I hope people get into relationship is for true love and not to fool around.
I gave talk to all my Sec1s and Sec2s last year class by class and I also gave a farewell speech during my Prom Night. I cried because I really thank all my friends who have helped me through all these years. My teachers too!
My ex girlfriend was there during the prom night cause she is part of the organising committee.
So yeah
I didn’t say that I broke off with my girlfriend during the speech and I guess everyone knows about it including my principal.
Is a great feeling that I can't express it when I am with her, without her I think up till now my parents are still very worried about me because I might be getting from bad to worst all because of relationship I changed!
I achieved all my aims.
Can you tell how much I love her?
I feel that she was selfish towards me. In a relationship we must not be selfish not even your partner. Both parties got to contribute so that we can maintain the relationship. Maybe it was my fault too. I was at wrong and I did hurt her sometimes. I am really sorry. I know there is no point saying sorry now. Its over. . .
Always love the person for who he/she is.
During that period of time, it was my N levels. It is very important to me and I found out that she changed in terms of her character. I never raised my voice at her before.
Never!!!
I keep telling her nicely why and what is wrong. Why she hate school out of sudden. I was very stress because teachers would always ask me to encourage her to study. I tried but I think I failed. Teachers told me bad about her. She just refused to listen to my advised and she even said that if that is the case then we shall not be together. Then you will have no more complaints.
I really want to just walk away but I really love her a lot therefore I just kept quiet and send her to the bus stop.
I reached home, my tears were flowing down. I do not know what happened to her. She told me that she want to break up with me at night. I agreed. I said sure, If that is your choice, I can't stop you.

After all I think is really stupid to be angry? sad or disappointed?
I have always been quite a positive person in terms of thinking and feelings, not saying I am only positive in thinking and feelings la but also everything? haha..
My mentor called me few days back to rectify and also clarify certain issues. I dare to say I am actually quite brave to say out all things that were unpleasant of each and every CIC. HAHA. . . After all I hope I have saved the Instructors in regards of certain welfare issues.
I still find it weird why they don't wanna blacklist me? haha.. Is it because they got not enough manpower? I doubt so la. If thats the case I will be damn bloody pissed.
Well. . . I don't really bother much about camp stuff right now. All I WANT IS A HOLIDAY AND BREAK! ! ! ! ! HAHAHA
My school is still the best place for me to stay and of course no matter how good is my school my best of the best place will still be my home. (:
A lot of things start to change when I get back to school. Is no longer the friendship that we used to have during the first term of our school. Not to point out names but I can sense that we are actually enduring with each other patient and limit. What for? By playing basketball we can simply tell how our friendship is like now compared to last time. Is so different. Why? ) :
No more camp for me. Cause I am back to who I am in the past who used to do sports for more than 20 hours per week. I want to get back what I had lost. . .
Selected to go to China, Shanghai for 2007 Special Olympics World Summer Games. I will be there for 17 days. Unbelievable. haha... Can go there shopping, eat and last but not least to learn as many things as possible how a Major Game is organised.
Secondly training gonna start next tuesday for me cause my school will be going to climb MOUNT EVEREST? ? ? HAHA... YUP!!! We will be going there with the Women Everest Team. We will be supporting them through out the whole climb till we reach the Everest Base Camp. We only left with 6 months. We got to train real hard now!
I have made myself clear that nothing should stop my commitment for these 2 major projects.
I would still love to go for camps but now I have major projects in school to commit. Maybe in the past I will rebel as in hack care or dont even give a damn to my commitment just for camps but not now anymore. Maybe is because of what happened recently that changed my thinking and mindset. I don't know ? ? ?

If i said I am stupid for the past few months I am just being a very selfish person. I learnt a lot during those days. I believe I just need a time out for myself thats all. . .

First of all I would like to apologise to everyone that I am not able to reply your tags. ): I appreciate all your care and concern and especially your wishes. Thank you so much people (:
Now lets talk about APPRECIATION.
Recently, lots of things happened to me. Keep asking myself this question!!! What have I done wrong in camp? "Besides singing underwear song" which I think is made clear that this song is banned and Instructor are not allowed to teach and sing.
Well... I got scolded and maybe got banned because of what happened during ITE Camp. Why? I used the song. I know is very clear cut that I am not allowed to use that song but why I still used it? Cause I am camper! Is this an excuse?
Instructions or maybe not, lets call it LAW! LAW said Instructor not allowed to sing or used "Underwear" song or cheer. IS BANNED!
I still use it. Is it because I don't give a damn to CIC and LAW? Or is it I don't really care?
Look. I was a camper during that camp and is the nature of the school that already know this song or cheer even the teachers know it. I sang it during campfire wearing a CAMPER YELLOW TEE. The LAW didn't state down CAMPER CANNOT sing this song.
Worst case is I heard this song is allowed therefore i sing. And I sing it because I am a CAMPER! And they fuck me because I am their Instructor after all.
I know it but why did I still use it? I told myself I am a CAMPER what. Again they fuck me on the spot.
If a Leader cannot identify their own mistakes I believe they are not suitable to be a Leader. All these things are lead to Miscommunication. I believe what my Instructor told me was right cause he told me Underwear cheer is allowed in this camp cause ITE students are old enough. Therefore I used.
Do you think I am a person who don't show respect? I respected everybody in the camp and I followed instructions. When instructions are given wrongly and I followed I got fuck by them. Being a CAMPER and INSTRUCTOR after all weren't that fun I guessed.
Saying that I am not a CAMPER in the camp cause I don't look like and I behaved like INSTRUCTOR. Whats that you saying? You are just being sterotyping me cause I am your Instructor after all in your company.
Writing report, sleeping in the hall or even eating supper etc... As CAMPER you won't be treated like that. But why am I? I know you are actually giving me special privileges and advantages as a CAMPER which I appreciate it very much.
Thats what you gave me, I cannot blame you. Other CAMPER can have it too, but when mistakes occur you fuck me as an Instructor. You think is fair for me and the rest? Treating me differently is all at your own risk because other CAMPER may feel a bit unfair. Who ask you to treat me differently cause I am your Instructor after all? But look I am still a CAMPER. If I don't follow your instructions please scold me as a CAMPER. Don't be soft hearted. It will not be fair to the rest of the CAMPER and it doesn't reflects well on you too.
I believe not even a SINGLE INSTRUCTOR DARE to be a CAMPER in CHA. But why me?
I want to get the feeling how is it like and get different experiences. This is also a chance to test out how can they managed people when there is someone who already know whats going on? It is also a bit unfair to expose out my identity to the rest of the CAMPER that I am also an Instructor with CHA. Other people will look at me in a different perception.
There are always 7 chapters in CHA which I called the PECK CEK. Please go and study before you want to stay here for long.
Chapter 1 : Passion/Professional
Chapter 2 : Educator
Chapter 3 : Company's Reputation
Chapter 4 : Knowledge
Chapter 5 : Choosing
Chapter 6 : Eliminate
Chapter 7 : Kill
Chapter 1
When you come for camp with your PASSION. Something cock up they fuck you using EDUCATOR and COMAPNY'S REPUTATION
Chapter 2
When you come here to EDUCATE people. They said you got no PASSION, you are just like a normal teacher who keep nagging and scolding. So whats the point of your students coming to camp. All these things they already got it enough with their school teachers...?
Chapter 3
When you come here for the seek of working or helping for the Company. Again they fuck you that you come here is because you have PASSION and you are an EDUCATOR not because of MONEY!
Chapter 4
When you have the KNOWLEDGE you want to in part to your CAMPER as an INSTRUCTOR. They fuck you because they dont like the way of your approaching or conducting. They want you to change cause they felt that is wrong. They said you are not learning. You are not being PROFESSIONAL. You got to learn cause you are an EDUCATOR.
Chapter 5
When you CHOOSE to come here for camp especially they NEEDED YOU DESPERATLY. They don't even APPRECIATE you.
Chapter 6
When you CHOOSE not to come here for camp and you went other places. They start to ELIMINATE you.
Chapter 7
When you don't get ELIMINATED by some CIC. They KILL you from the back which I called BACKSTABBERS.
Exam Answer:
Now at least I know what is called PECK CEK!!!
So now can anybody tell me did I or didn't I follow instructions or we call it LAW? Did I respect the PERSON who implemented the LAW?
People come and go...
Thats not how a company should function. People normally come and stay for a period maybe 3 to 4 years or even longer thats if the company really APPRECIATE their members. If not just a 3 days 2 night you will see people leaving.
I just wanna say something out from my heart...
I have been doing my best to give in what I can for CHA. I respect every single one of you. When help is needed I am always there. Regardless of how other company needed me desperatly I will still go to CHA. Besides being not appreciated, I got shit from CIC. Making mistakes is part and parcel of a human being. I believe some mistakes like modesty are definately out. Being condemn because of a song? don't like my personal conducting? I don't learnt after my mistakes which I don't agree cause I dont seriously know what the hell have I done. And if its all because of the Underwear song and lead to all these things I seriously think that you all are just forcing me to admit I am really at fault.
I come here for everthing. Passion, Students, Instructors and CIC. I willing to give up so many committment outside just because I dont want to hear any news that the camp failed etc... The student got no Instructor to look after them... Therefore I go.
Back to school.
Being kicked out of Student Council which I am nominated to be in the EXCO or even higher, Getting warning because of my attendance. Debarrment letter If i continue to do so.
You think I got nothing better to do than helping you all to do camps?
I have exams, school work, CCA, Sports, Young Team Singapore Ambassadors, School project and even project at National Level.
Have you all ever thought of how I feel?
I was so pissed when someone called me this morning saying:
CIC: Melvin are you activated for Ridwan's camp?
ME: YA, I am going down later.
CIC: Is okay Melvin, you dont have to go down, I will take over as a Group Instructor cause I don't want Ridwan's camp to get screw up.
ME: Okay sure!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
CIC: Thanks for your help.
This is how they RESPECTED me. I really APPRECIATE the help from the CIC.
Yes, I am just an Instructor. Doesn't mean you all need me to make the camp success. You all can always find someone to replace. I believe thats what you all are thinking now. Every Instructors are your resources, you make good use of them after that you throw away. You don't appreciate what they have done for you in the past.

Every Instructors are your resources, you make good use of them after that you throw away. You don't appreciate what they have done for you in the past.
What I feel now is you all are just being hard on us. You afraid that one day we will take over you and yet you want us to improve. A Leader is the one who train a Leader better than him. Is this what you all are doing now? You have high expectation on us. You want us to keep learning and improving. Look what have you all done as a Leader for us to improve? Other than backstabbing behind us or some lecture by CIC or even scolding. Is this how you train your Instructors? Or can I say you all are just lazy and wants to get things right on our own. We are human being. Nobody is perfect, what we can do is to help one another.
Everytime when we talk about helping one another it is always the Instructors. When the Instructors are bonded together closely you all get jealous why we left out the CICs. You said we are a TEAM. When we talk about TEAM. When Instructors got certain things and CICs don't have, you all complaint why we don't have. When CICs got certain stuff and we Instructors ask why we are not allowed you said because we are CIC? AIC? Full Time? or even use phrases like We are wearing BLACK SHIRT. But you said we are a TEAM. Why must you all be so hierarchy when you keep on saying we are a TEAM? Is this how we as an Instructor learn Servant Leadership from you?
It might seems nonsensical to people who are affected reading this, but think... Go and think about it. You all have been asking your Instructors to think about themself and reflect on their own. I believe is time now for you all to do some personal reflection and time to learn.
You can choose to not accept what I said and what others think of you all and you better don't expect others to accept your comment.
Seriously till now I still remember all my camper and love them as my camper cause for once you all have accpeted me as your Instructor to come to your life. I will never blame you all for not doing a job in camp, infact I believe is my fault cause I am still your Leader after all. Sincerely apologise, take care and much much misses.
For the last time with Loves: Instructor Melvin Chong

IF we hold on together....
I know our dreams will never die....
Dreams see us through and forever....
Where clouds row by....
For you and I....
Thank you Fuchun Sec, Yishun Sec, Queenstown Sec and Bowen Sec for being such a great and wonderful Camper.
Seriously missed everyone. 3 Days 2 Night really short... WE met, We played, We learnt, We left.
Not easy to be an Instructor and will never easy to be a Good Instructor. Recently a lot of things happened to me. Be in good or bad mostly all are bad things. ):
Maybe I just have a different way of approaching to my students. I dont really scold them or shout at them. They are just not satisfied with the way of my conducting. So i have to change? I always believe in myself and of course I do things that are right. I don't do different things but I do things differently and thats Me.
Well maybe I am real bad Instructor?
By right I already know that I shouldn;t be in Bowen Sec for their camp. I can sensed that something is not right. I wanna know and Chief Veron spoke to me.
AES should be my last camp. I need a break. . . . .
Camper will never know how your Instructor cover up for you when you made silly mistakes or misbehave in camp. Nevertheless, appreciate and cherish the people around you that care about you. Always think twice and relate that person as your family members. Put yourself in to other peoples' shoes and understand how they feel. Thats the most important thing that a Leader, Team mate, Classmate, Friends or whoever you know in your life. . .

Thats the most important thing that a Leader, Team mate, Classmate, Friends or whoever you know in your life. . .

As day goes by...
Things start to change.
Am I in love? Hopefully not. But why am i so frustrated??? Maybe only for that moment or am I a flirt? Maybe is because of someone therefore I am frustrated not that I am in love.
Why is there a past in this world? Is always the past that block me from the barrier.

It all started with a fire. . .
Last camp ended on Fajar Secondary School.
It has been an exciting and motivating months for me since jan. Nice working with young people around my age and especially mingles with youth that are 2 to 3 years younger than me.
What they are going through now makes me think of my past in my secondary school days.
My last camp in Camp HA ended on my secondary school.
Is really great that I have met people in CampHA for the past few months. We endured pain together, we got shit together from our bosses, we eat together using one plate, spoon and fork, we work together under the hot sun, in the rain and walk together hand in hand even when the cold win blow. We even sheared our tears together before we all end our camping life...
Thanks everyone for coming to my Chalet. I am more than happy to see everyone.

To all Instructors
Instructors that went Genting with me. I am glad that you guys have enjoy yourself there. Through this trip, we shared a lot of our personal unhappiness within ourself. This trip brought our friendship and bonding closer and closer, though it might only be a while because everyone will be going seperate ways after the trip but I believe the friendship that we have made for the past few months will last forever in our heart.
You guys have made an impact in my life.
Though I seldom talk to everyone as you guys can see but the way we cherish each other as friends is unsayable.
Sooner or later one by one will be leaving, the past few months has been great to have met people like you all.
As time goes by. . . . .
This is a just a dream, a 3 months dream, a 3 months dream that brought everybody together through sweat, laughter and tears. Now is time to wake up, everybody got to leave this dream and continue with their life.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST

Lesson ended at 10. Breakfast with classmate and went home.
Went town with Xingying to get Frances's present. We went to Guess and bought her a belt. haha.. Hope she like it. Yup!
Still sick. Having cough.
On our way to town in bus we saw taxi accident. The taxi actually went up the grass patch. There were passengers inside. Scary...
Suddenly it began to rain. The rain is getting heavier and heavier when we alighted at Far East. We forgot to bring umbrella and we wouldn't know it will rain again. We walked from Far East to Taka and we Xingying nearly got hit down by a Stupid driver. Can't you see we are running to shelter. Luckily I hold on her and stopped moving or else she will get knock down. Damn the driver... Raining still drive so fast. Moreover is just a short distance.
Xy went to Marriot to grap something before we went Taka. We wanted to buy her a voucher but they don't have it. We went to Paragon and search for her belt size. We managed to get 'M'. I was trying the belt and the salesman said this is for lady but I am just trying on behalf of Frances cause xy said her waist is almost the same size as mine. hahaha... Well not that bad lah. I am 30. haha...
We bought the belt and we went to 163 for Dinner with Frances and the rest.
Went Swensen after dinner to cut cake. haha :)
After which we went back to 163 and chill out...
Frances: Hope you enjoyed your birthday and love our present. :)
XingYing: Get well soon :) Don't drink too much of cold drinks k?
HY: Quit that as soon as possible!

A Group Picture
Most of the girls are from CHIJ St Nic, Cresent Girls and PLMGS.
IBM talked about their history and how computers came into this world. IBM not only they are dealing with computers, they are actually a big company of all engineers.
Student Instructors/ Mentors
We are here to break their ICE and get them know each other as this is the first day of their camp. What a group of great instructors. haha...
Team Building Games
Through out the day. My fever, cough and flu is getting worst. I got to endure. I don't really want to go to school today but I got no choice because I have IBM. The mentors and students are really nice people. Especially the students, when I look at them, all my illness start to recover. Their smile indeed made me feel better.
I can see that they are enjoying themselves. I hope this really help them to get to know each other better.
They are a very sensible group of girls. They were very cooperative when work need to be done. I hope they enjoy the journey with IBM and make this a fruitful learning journey.
See you girls on friday :)

In our daily life. We are the one who decide whether to live our life happily or sadly before we end our day.
Time passes very fast. Happy or sad life still continue.
I try my best to live my life to the fullest everyday by doing things that I enjoy. No matter how stress I am, just take a deep breath and relax. Forget all my troubles not by smoking, drinking or doing things that harm your body or health but by playing sports, singing or go to a quiet place alone and reflect.
Everyone in this world have their own troubles. Troubles are easily defeated if you are strong in your mentality. Nowsday there are lots of people committed suicide. A very silly act and you just ended your life with all your loves one behind.
''If there is no sadness, what is the worth of life, if there is only happiness, what will be your aim in life!''

Darkness…
It seems like the distance between me and YTSA are getting further and further apart.
I am still wondering why? She seems to hate me but I don't know the reason behind it. There are lots of politics going on after me but nobody will ever understand.
I don't want to get involve but no choice I am the chairman. I feel that I am a dumb after I found out everything.
I will shelter my YTSA no matter what but I don't know how many of them can feel it.
There are times that they told me off not to pamper them too much. Wondering is it wrong or I am not supposed to?
Being a chairman there are only 2 roles either a good or bad. I always believe if you treat a person nice, that person will equally treat you nice too! No matter how badly they treat me I will never treat them like they do!
A question just popped out in my mind. Am I a good Chairman?
The answer that she given me seems to be I am someone who kept doing things and yet she never appreciate it at all. How often in a event that I planned she will turn up other than the Christmas Gathering.
Everything is all because of one person! In the first place I shouldn't get too close to that person but I got no choice because I am link to all the ytsa. Why is there so much misunderstanding and politics going on? As a professional, that person shouldn't do this.
I shall not be the chairman and everyone will be happy am I right?
Things just don't go the way that we want. There are lots of internal conflicts left unsaid.
Can anybody tell me what to do now?
Let me leave this place of sadness and stressfulness with only wonderful memories
If you cry alone nobody will understand, let us cry together and everything will be fine...

About Me:
Nothing much to describe me.
A happy and sad person.
I simply hate people who act cute especially people who love to act emo. People who love to type ii lubb euu nehx. moi frendz ish moi dardar. These are people who I discriminate the most. I just hate it! This is getting worst and lots of people are learning.
If you happen to read this and you happen to be the one who is using such a language and acting emo. I am sorry. In Singapore we have our own freedom of speech. We can do what we want as long as it is not a crime or illegal stuff.
For those who love to act emo and use language like ni nehx worx. Go ahead! Human being do things that they love to.
People like me will never understand people who love to act emo.
I sincerely apologize.
Saturday, October 21, 2006

Oh oh oh.... Sunday!
Daniel, Kimberly and me.
We went to kopitiam and talk crap. Kim ate Carrot Cake and I ate Five Fragrant.
After Kim left me and Daniel talked about relationship and feelings. haha... I shall not expose too much what we chat about later Dan will kill me.
Well.. Sometimes guys out there do have the same feeling as us. Girls who are pretty are always attached to a guys who are not so good looking. 'is bad to use the term ugly'
Guys who are handsome will attached with girls who are not so good looking.
Me and Dan keep asking each other why why why? hahaha... Usually girls who are pretty goes with guys who either smoke? Chao Ah Beng? Hair colour super gold and bright. Dress like punk or tattoos all over the body.
Looks doesn't matter but Character does.
Maybe I am just feeling jealous. hahaha... Who knows?
So Dan. Don't think too much. If she is yours she will be yours. Don't keep thinking that she is fond of me. Thats rubbish! haha..
Wish all couples a very sweet and .... happiness forever :)
