I did a lot this week but nothing to out of the ordinary, other than
getting my first aid and taking care of the house for a week while my
parents were gone and helping my aunt debbie. I had to take care of a
dog who refused to eat and drink, and never asked to be let out; i had
to let him out on purpose just to make sure he never had an accident in
the house, but he did of course. My dog always asks my parent to go
outside but never me, even if i am the only one. Also i have had to help
my aunt twice this week. First was transporting a bbq from my place to
her place; then i had to help transport a fridge onto her place, which
was all good. The neat part of my week was learning first aid with two
of my fellow classmates from kung fu. I got to learn a little bit more
about them and felt like it bonded us a little bit closer together,
which was neat. out of the three of us i got the lowest score it was
100% , 90 something%, and me 90%. I felt like i could of done better,
but it was my first time ever learning that stuff. i just want to
mention that this year for demo practice and putting together a demo for
a function seems a little more forced and a little unnatural. so
instead of people doing it because they want to, and of course because
we have to do a least 3 of them. It feels like people might be doing it
because they are being forced to or guilted into doing it rather then
being inspired to to it and maybe change themselves in the process. I am
not saying this is everyone, but rather some. I understand that
sometimes to get stuff done or to push someone beyond there limits, some
of this tough love has to be done. but is there another way to do
it?...... I personally don't know. I know we have to cram into a demo
really quick right now because we have a very limited time before the
demo actually has to be done an it has to look good. But for maybe
afterwards or next time, is there a better way to put a demo together?
Is it time? Is it leadership? Or is it the people themselves? I know
last year felt very natural and even not so forced. Maybe we had the
leadership? the time? and the people in the right frame of mind, but
that was last year, and we even started it late. So we must focus on
this year, I think we are doing amazing this year to build demos in as
little time as we are doing, is amazing, but it just feel like we are
missing something and i can honestly say that i can't tell what that is.
The people are still awesome, the people are dedicated, the only
difference is that we are doing it on so short of time, but should that
really effect the atmosphere of the demo? I don't know, i am just
asking. this is only my second year in doing this but i still truly
believe that i will get that feeling back, maybe it is the time or
whatever else it might be, because if there is a least one thing that
the I ho Chuan has taught me from last year is to keep being perseveres.
Even knowing when times feel tough it always gets better without the
bad there would be no good. So i guess that is my little rant for now
and sorry if it is a little hard to understand what i wrote here, i
really suck at where to put the proper punctuations and all that.
