Memoirs of pigtails and hopscotch at Fairfield


Yeah! Back to my alma mater for the 2nd time as a Trybe staff to conduct the "You Can Do It!" Programme! Brings back wonderful memories of my double pigtails days. Not so long ago. Ha ha.

My Super-duper juniors were so adorable, they won our hearts easily. To all you cute, intelligent and lively bunch, I just want to say "You are the best!" Except when some of you beat me flat at hopscotch..... :P Miss you all!

Anglican House Camp: Steven Jr in the House!


Anglican House Teambuilding Camp 2007
Date: 12 & 13 January 2007
Venue: Labrador Adventure Centre

Yo... Juz got back home from Anglican House Camp... Anglican House is a hostel for foreign student scholars who are studying here in singapore... But hey, know what they are de best group of ppl I've ever met through out my whole 21 yrs of life...oops... now you all know my age hehe ...*sigh*... these students are full of life, united and super "On" ... they do whatever we asked them do to, they never say no at all.. ask them to dance they dance, ask them to cheer they will cheer... unlike some group that I've lead before not too sporty at all... they really motivated me to continue leading and inspire the lives of the youth... they posess so many positive characters that made the 2 days and 1 night last full of memories....


Well, this group has really changed my life... I've never seen people so united as one before in my whole life... This group of mine also won a special award (Best Teamwork) and what's so sweet is that they share a part of the prize with me and to the two other facilitators... It really inspire me to continue to serve people, and lead the youth, because of people like them makes the time spent really worth while and I really enjoy meeting such a wonderful bunch of people with the same attitude... Victory 5 a group which will 4ever be in my heart.

Kranji Camp 2007: It’s you again!


YLMP Camp 2007 for Kranji Secondary School
January 3 - 5, 2007

This camp experience was special for me because this is the first time I’ve ever had the same group of students for the second time. Usually as a camp facilitator I will not have the chance to see my group of students again. However, this year I was given a chance to lead class 4C again.

I was so happy to see the familiar faces of Shafig, Awar, Yaya, and Josiah. I was greeted by their warm smiles and their first comments, “Kern! It’s you again SCAMMER!” Last year, they nicknamed me “The Scammer” because I had tricked them one too many times.

So, this year’s camp started out very fun, then came the “Dress up and Etiquette.” The first thing that comes to a man’s mind is, “Why me?” However, Dick Su and Rachel Ong did an excellent job, as a number of my male students including Josiah said, “I never get a chance to dress up and practice eating like a gentlemen. Today, I was given that chance and I’m so thankful.” So, yes, day 1 was a success.

Day 2 was a totally different story. We woke up early from our camp-site—totally different from last year’s. We were at the Costa Sands Resort, “WOW!” was the words coming from my student Brenda.

So at about 10am we headed out from the camp, and headed for the first destination “Toa Payoh”. Yes, my students had more fun joking around then trying to win the GPS game. They said, “Ok, who can define Toa Payoh will win? Toa Payoh means “Old Chicken!” However, to our amazement, my student Shafig was so moody in the morning, but when we got to Toa Payoh he took the GPS device into his hands and took the leadership of our team. I saw the strength in class 4C, as they have faith in each other and trust. In this day-and-age it’s hard for us to give our faith and trust to friends. However, this group of students have done so. Thus, I believe both day 1 and day 2 were a success for Trybe and for me as their lead facilitator.

Finally, I will miss class 4C very much, I do hope to keep in contact with them via MSN and chat. However, I know they’ll be successful because they have overcome so many obstacles in their paths. Thanks 4C, you all have changed my life.
