It’s Finally OVER!

It’s Finally OVER!

At long last, Battalia ’08 came to an end. Months of hard work, it did pay off. Thankfully. It is heartening to know just how much some of the freshies, and indeed, ogls, appreciate the efforts we put into this. Months of toil (and turmoil) brought together into a blistering week.

To be honest, there were dubious characters in the committees. It really escapes my comprehension of them joining if they didn’t have enough passion in pulling off an eventual brilliant outcome. Kudos to the rest of us who possess such fortitude, creativity, endurance & willpower to deliver. I will remember the hours we spent, sometimes past midnight, making sure everything is in place & preparing the equipment & cracking our grey masses coming up with ingenious ideas & bitching about stuffs & more. We literally shed sweat and tears (from lack of sleep) together, and sometimes blood. And we brave the heat of Sentosa & the coldness of CRE together… hahaha. And most appreciation to logistics whom we (outdoor) work most closely with.

These are times when stronger bonds are forged, and it is always nice to think that we are there for one another when things screw up. It sets me thinking about the true essence of our theme, Battalia. What is it that you seek in battle? Of course, to win and have a desirable outcome is always an agenda. Then again, I think the process is more important, something not everyone can appreciate, that we brave through all the shit as an indomitable team. Thanks guys & gals for giving some positivity to this thing… (yea yea if you asked me again I would probably not choose to do this again)

There are still wonderful people around. And it definitely diminishes the chances of working with unknown people in future, be it in random project groups or other misc activities. To end off a memorable week, we bizaders are champions for Rag & Flag ’08. Like AGAIN 😀 Wooza… till next time.
