of being an instructor

It's been a week since I came back from St. Theresa's Convent Pulau Ubin Camp. To be honest, the girls were wonderful. After a 2 year hiatus, I was back in the business. Working as an instructor is far more fulfilling than any other jobs I have taken up so far. Of so many camps that I have done, this was the only camp that had the most impact on me and of course, I almost cried - multiple times.

I had to serve the girls.

I had to carry alooot of logistics for the events.

I had to teach.

I had to boost their morale.

I had to do many other things that at the end of the night, I felt satisfied of my achievements.

But importantly, when I decided I would take up the job, I had only one goal in mind - To change their lives or at most, give them the best ever camp experience of their lifetime. Thanks to my mirror instructor and attached instructor, we worked together to achieve our common goal.

The best feeling ever?

It wasn't the time to sleep.

It wasn't the time I could rest.

It wasn't the time I was all alone in my own world.

It was when the girls and their teacher approached me to say one simple word.

"Thanks." - with the best ever sincerity they could ever show me when I look in their eyes.

And to me, it wasn't about the money when I did the job.

But I won my kind of million dollars. :)
