i love jasmine kok.

shes one of the VERY few kids that i ADORE.
check out wm's blog for more.
(ps. he loves her too)
(pps. so does thomas and weinurn)
wm, thanks for the link, i havent got my pic pages up yet.

the MHI (ministry for the hearing impaired) camp was really really fun. the kids are pure, and pretty innocent, with exceptions like jun chong who keep asking my if i'm attached to various guys... eg. weiming (ee), thomas (strong!), weinurn (least often)
haha... and theres this really sweet couple... awww... alvin and i forgot her name.

the camp was more for the volunteers than the participants... i believe we were touched and enriched... beyond compare. in these kids, i believe in the meaning of innocence, in pure joy, goodness, kindness, which overrides, or at least shines through, mischief and playfulness. and to make a cynic like me believe in all this... means it was something.

heres the 5 koks, courtesy of wm's link again


wei nurn, me, thomas, shen and weiming.
all from rj. not only did they make me believe that ruggers can actually act like normal people, they made me discover that they actually do have a heart to help, a soft spot (for jasmine), are great fun and are super chen(4) ji(1). see the photo... just take the opportunity to put arms around us.
anyway, rj ppl... will always gravitate to each other. thats a conclusion that shen and i came up with. you may not have talked much to each other in school, or even at all, but when u meet outside... theres always this common ground. the rafflesian spirit.

pretty sad that we missed talent night, because it was a huge success... most camps have really boring talent nights... but maybe its cos these hearing impaired have few chances to express themselves, or are unable to in other ways... but they shone... acting skits...

more about camp when i am more awake.

stay tuned for tons of unglam, funny and cute photos!
