My Reflection for NCC kayaking sea competition
Well, seriously, I really enjoyed it, especially on the 2nd day when we had prize presentations. Although the 2nd day was rather stressful as we had to improvise, I still find it really memorable and honored to be able to be one of the emcees there. Yes, the 2nd day there was indeed tiring as Clara wanted me to be kind of the in-charge there as I had gained some experience from the 1st day. However, I felt really blessed and relieved when all of us were united and treating each other so friendly and harmoniously. I really enjoyed the good rapport with everyone. We even had time to gossip! (Secret! Shhh…. Haha!)
I did not really like the 1st half of the 1st day as it was quite a bore. We had to make announcements, do this, do that although we were not that familiar and comfortable with the machines and the commentating tactics and skills. However, after a few hours of chilling and familiarizing with the surroundings and people, I got more enthusiastic and energetic. I tried my best to accommodate and get accustomed to Clara’s instructions and accomplished almost all of my tasks at the end. However, I was not very satisfied and contented with my performance on the 1st day as I did not have much commitment yet.
However, I managed to try my best to get myself in the right mood for commentating and I eventually felt really comfortable. I did not really dread the long hours compared to the first day. I enjoyed commentating and getting used to the hectic and busy schedule.
From those two days, I have learned many many many useful stuff such as being a confident emcee, knowing how to improvise and complete a task in a messy situation and some commentating skills. I also don’t mind sharing some of my experiences and skills to those who are keen to learn. =)
I would also like to seize this opportunity to thank Clara. She has been a great leader and in-charge for the whole NCC sea competition. I seriously admire her as I know it is really difficult to be a responsible and efficient leader. She helped us sort out some stuff and made our jobs easier. Although she might be kinda harsh and strict at times, I know it is all for our own good right? Clara, I bet no one really blames you for being harsh to them. To show my heartfelt thanks, I would like to confess something right here, right now.
CLARA THANKS A MILLION! YOU ARE SUPERB=))))))))))))))))))
I would also like to thank somebody, although it is kinda out of point.
MINYEN YOU ARE THE BEST! NO MATTER HOW WELL WE SCORE FOR OUR CHINESE PROJECT, WE WOULD STILL GIVE YOU A TREAT CAUSE THIS IS JUST WHAT YOU RIGHTFULLY DESERVE. =)
In general, the NCC kayaking sea competition has been a fruitful and enjoyable one and I will remember it always.
I’m lovin’ it. THAT’S ALL! =) Crystal Ong =)
