as i sat down in serenity, thoughts came flowing back to me. memories, memories of the gl life especially came back to me like it was just yesterday i was a gl.
back then i didn't truly understand what it meant by, this is our year.
honestly, i didn't come to cherish all that we've done together as gls till i've moved on to be a sgl.
the feelings were different, the things that we have to do is different.
the mood for every training is different.
the gls have it rough during training, we as sgls have it even rougher.
as a gl, we can be carefree, not needing to care about what's going to happen tomorrow at training, not needing to worry if this is suitable, that is suitable.
the type of efforts put in is definitely different.
back then, it was just a matter of do i want to go for training today, right now, it is, i MUST and i NEED to go for training today.
it became a responsibility, it is not an unpleasant responsibility, yes, i do relish the feeling of having to be responsible at times, but the mood is different.
there are many more things we have to watch out for, many more things to control.
being a gl is a privilege that you get to enjoy only for 1 year.
the time passes really quickly when you are a gl, the bonds you formed during FOC is the strongest.
having been through pre-FOC, FOC and post-FOC, you will feel a sense of satisfaction, you will know deep down in your heart, this is all that you have worked for, a family that is not related by blood but yet that closely bonded.
you will know it is all worth it, it is all for a good cause.
the days leading up to FOC contains of memories kept in your heart in that special place where you know you'll never forget, the hectic schedule, it felt like we practically lived in school, the rehearsals, the meetings, the many things to be done for your group.
the laughter, the tears, the joy, the sadness, the sweat it will all taste sweet in your heart and mind.
during FOC, the craziness, the excitement that filled us was a little too much for me to handle but yet warming. it warms your heart to see your batch come together as one and work things out. no mountains too high to scale, no oceans too deep to swim with the support of your batch. at the end of the camp, you will feel like everything had happened too quickly and too hard to fully grasp it. it is only till you finally settle down and tell yourself that it is all over that you start to miss it terribly already. be given a chance, i'd like to go through FOC once again, but this is not our year, it is the GLs 09/10 year.
our FOC days will be remembered forever.
school has started, yet again another same ol' same ol' resolution was made, that was to put in more effort to study. but whether can it be done remains to be another different story.
am glad that i'm once again in the church going mood! :D
let this fire not die in me once again, Jesus.
:D
alrighttttttt.
GOD BLESS (:
