Okay, this will be a
combined post for yesterday's pre-comp dinner at fish and co and today's competition. So most of you would know the
results by now. I can't put a word to it but I did not leave with disappointment. I left the competition grounds with hope. A hope that traditions did not fail. No matter what
other people (who basically do not exist in sji-sjab anymore) say, no matter how much people say that sji-sjab had basically
died after gemini after taurus after whoever and whoever, no matter how retarded some comments can be, I will stick to my belief in believing that my comp teams will not fail me. They might not do so well before, they might not do so well now... but eventually they will do well. I trust that they take comp seriously, and that's enough for me to
feel proud of them regardless of results. Like I said for march camp 2007 to my ncos, I do not expect perfect results, but I expect perfect efforts. If they gave me the determination to want to do well throughout comp,
I will love my comp teams.
Today I experienced camaraderie within sji-sjab. Between teammates, between teams, between generations (thanks gary!). That's touching. I might not live to experience much of this because one day I might leave
sji-sjab or even sjab but I will remember the camaraderie today. Okay enough of this lovey-dovey stuff. Team Cancer,
don’t feel that you’ve let us down. Maybe you did on the surface but what we really want is for you guys to regain consciousness of your performance and to excite your minds with the greatest desire to win comps. I’m not sure if I was accurate in saying that you guys do not have the strongest urge to win comp on Thursday, but today, I felt that you lived and died. For that you cherish life more. So what if you
‘lost’ again? It’s not like other comp teams did not, its how you deal with it that makes you the survivor. Team Gemini lost their first comp, so did Team Taurus and Scorpio briefly at natcomp. All these led to greater wants to win… transfer some sorrows in your heart to some wants and you’ll know that you’ll be happier. Everyone fails at something sometime; it’s just that you guys failed one more time than others…
that’s all. So take it in your stride.
We will support you; know that you’re in the hands of people who care. It’s like taking the fall of trust, you will fall into arms of your seniors, squadmates, officers, ncos, teachers, etc etc. Don’t let a knock set you back okay? =) Continue to be proud of who you are,
you are special as one of the irreplaceable comp teams of sji-sjab.
Well I’m quite proud of
sji-sjab comp teams 2007 today. They did not jump straight and bask in the victory of team scorpio. Yes, we clean-sweeped once again… but the focus was on cancer. The care and concern was
beautiful. It’s like everyone was in a fluster looking for our beloved we forgot to celebrate. In fact, we didn’t want to celebrate. Our priority was not simply to honour the people who bring glory but also to
recharge each other for more challenges. That touched me. I feel proud to be an officer, once again, because of this. Many people have many intentions to why they want to become officers.
It might be to change their corp,
it might be to screw past generations of leaders,
it might be to get back at the people who jeopardized you in one way or another in the past. For me, some of these people are just stupid. Their intention showed how much they love the unit, and how genuinely loyal they are to sji-sjab. If your most basic purpose of return is to seek revenge and to just the wrongs that people had inflicted on you, that is
not love. For me, I came back to continue traditions from whatever 1969, 1952 blah blah blah. I came back to facilitate the growth and
love of sji-sjab. Today, this event made me feel that whatever I came back for was worth my while. I did not waste a single second communicating, attempting to continue being a part of sji-sjab. I feel proud to be an officer.
Let me take a time to honour team scorpio. To team scorpio, I love you guys. Like I said, if team gemini was the first batch to create the clean sweep magic, and if team taurus was the first team to go for the most number of competitions, you will definitely be remembered as the comp team that has
the most number of unbreakable and constant wins in the history of sji-sjab. You’re success proved the effectiveness of certain training methods, dynamics and qualities. It shined through even though we didn’t believe we could. Hopefully you guys can pass down your knowledge, to future comp teams. Let me just say it bluntly, COME
BACK AS OFFICERS! Yes their success prove the effectiveness of certain training methods introduced by some people from a squad that I shall not name. If there’s something wrong with it that requires a comment like “screw gemini”, fine. But if there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it, I want whoever who said “screw gemini” to
retract that statement. It is plain
slander. I shall not name names, I shall not name names. Anyway, congratulations team scorpio. One set of clean sweep to your name.
With great hopes,
I believe in next year’s comp. Zonecomp2008, better watch out. No pressure to team cancer but I swear that they will achieve the feat that any of my past three comp teams had achieved. I believe in them. =) Haha.
No Longer Will We Chase the WindNo longer will we chase the wind
For speed can’t define us
So moving air through thick and thin
Will kiss the golden dust
In shocking thunder and fiery lightning
Defined one brand new lust
Far and wide, converging here
