So here I am, sitting in front of my laptop, trying to put into words what was an indescribable experience. I wasn't expecting much from the camp, thinking it would be just like the past few ones. This time round however, something was different. Maybe it was the venue (thanks Petronas) with its super food and free pool table, badminton, squash, ping pong, tennis, bicycles and "cybercafe". Maybe we've learned to appreciate our friendships more and build upon them. Maybe even though we have such diverse personalities we have begun to accept each other's strengths and shortcomings. And to think just 6 months ago I thought that 'familiarity breeds contempt' would be the bane of us all. Heck, even a few days before camp started I wasn't convinced we could ever put all our past behind and move on.

Thank God you all proved me wrong. Cynical, pessimistic, he-thinks-too-much David had made a mistake, a huge error of judgment. And I'm glad I was wrong. Honestly, you guys are the best. I'm sorry if my behaviour in the past has offended any of you (and I'm sure it has). But I've learnt my lesson and I'm thankful that we all stuck through the good and bad times together. Yes I can still be an asshole at times but I'm grateful that you guys indirectly have appreciated my efforts to change. And thank goodness I'm not the only non-string player around anymore.

Still, thing are never perfect. Why oh why oh why did that have to happen? Why me? Why am I so persistent even when I know there isn't much chance of success? Why must I pedantically analyze everything until in the end I do nothing, and lose out?

Sometimes I wonder how Tiki has the balls to write absolutely everything on his blog.

Argh. Squeaky-bum time again. Hopefully it will pass quickly.

Pleeeease pass quickly.
