Me and Alicia were emailing and somehow the subject of Guides came up so..here's what I have to say
Control us? Who's us? I mean, no matter where you bring it, it always comes back to those same people - the COH. That's one flaw in our system. Not that I am underestimating our batch's COH or anything but don't people need a chance too? Look at our year's BSMM, or any other uniform body for that matter, their comradeship highly outweighs us. We've been separated so fast. At the end of Form 2, there was already these 2...2..2...communities, divided into the Court of (Dis)Honour and those not privileged, skilled or outgoing enough to be in it. I was so naive last time, just going on about as a little fresh new guide, doing what's planned, never questioning, never going further. Le Yi used to ask why am I so obsessed with Guides last time. lol= = Then, the AGM occurred and the dividing line on our batch was drawn. And my perspective changed. The feeling of it all changed. That innocence was never there anymore.I guess this is the start of our political feud. What makes us different from the others is our amount, look, all seniors we seen before us never had this many members so they knew each other better, worked better together and had more fun together(created more conflicts too). With our numbers, it seems harder but it can be accomplished, yet we failed at this. When have we done anything as one batch, hanged out as a batch, faced our troubles as a batch or accomplished anything as a batch? Answer- Never. I asked you whether we had any photos signifying our batch, what was your answer? No. I think you would have read Yu Song's post with all those photos. Reality or an exxageration, they really seem very united. Why aren't we?
