Im off to a CSSP Challenge camp tomorow as facilitator. Frankly, its not the best time for me to go. I've got loads to study for, im missing 2 maths tuitions and 1 consultation, and i have to wake up at 5 tomorrow, which, in a word, sucks.
To be really really really really frank, what attracted me to join was.. (as someone aptly put it) that three-letter word, CIP. Or more specifically, CIP hours, which i am in dire need of. Joining this camp would solve all my CIP woes in one fell swoop in three days. Yes, its truely an asshole attitude.
But im thinking again. The director of Heartware, the youth organization who's in charge of this camp, said that whatever you do, do it "from the heart." Sounded corny when i heard it first.. but hey, it does make sense, now that im so close to the camp. With 15-odd students under my charge for three days, who are probably really excited about it, and with the chance to help them grow, or at least, have loads of fun, and with the slightest chance of helping the community, who really cares about CIP hours? Hell, even if i didnt give a damn, i'd really be letting alot of people down if i go for it using the old fashioned asshole way. So, its time for me to start giving a damn and doing it "from the heart." And hey, when you really do mean it, its not so corny after all.
So as i go and bid adieu to blogging for three days, i just pray that God will open my heart, and guide me through. And to all those idiots out there who do things just for the CIP hours, well, you're an idiot. I'll check back in three days.
Spell of the Day:
Imperio
The Imperius Curse, used only by powerful wizards, most of the time Dark wizards, is a form of mind control. The spellcaster is able to manipulate other people to do things by planting instructions inside his head, forcing him to accomplish the desired task by taking away all his free will, and replacing it with a peaceful, dream-like state. Lord Voldemort used it on several occasions when he was in power before Harry Potter was born, to make wizards do his evil bidding. Harry is one of the few who can resist the curse.
