Then on March 12, 1912, Daisy established the first troop of Girl Guides in the United States in her native Savannah. Through her steadfast promotion, the Movement grew rapidly, becoming the Girl Scouts of America in 1913. The organization was incorporated in 1915 with the national headquarters at Washington, D.C., with Daisy serving as president until 1920 when she was bestowed the rightful title of founder.

For fifteen years Daisy devoted her time, energy, and finances to the movement. She elicited major support and contributions from communities all around and was a frequent guest at campfires.

Daisy oversaw the composition of the Girl Scout handbook ‘How girls can help their country’ and in 1919 she was naturally the representative at the first international meeting of Girl Scouts and Guides.

She was instrumental in organizing the world Girl Scout camp in the United States in 1926. Less than a year later, on 17 January, 1927, Juliette Gordon Low died of cancer in Savannah, at the age of 66. She was buried in the uniform representing the organization she founded which to this day continues to change the world.

Saturday is getting much closer :/ I don't really know what to expect, but honestly I'm damn scared.
But what I'm really grateful for is that we managed to experience the round where we truly learnt something that's going to benefit rafflesguides, and that means a lot more.

Lunch and stuff with Laura Jocie Kway - I miss you guys. Discussed RJ and CCAs and negative things with Laura and, I honestly don't know if I want to join streetz, and I have no idea when the definite yes turned into something tilting towards no.

The July/August period is always a tough one, isn't it.

On a sidenote, Lion King's soundtrack is the best thing in the world :) :) :) :) :)

This is going to see me through the night.

Shit tired right now. Desperately want to go and sleep but I need to do BP stuff if I want to finish by tomorrow.
Yahoo news never looked so unappealing hahahahaha I used to think it was an Interesting Gossip site but lol what is this.

Anyway today was a happy happy day :) :) :)
1. Paying attention is actually feeling like an obligation now, not a choice.
2. I think I'm understanding Bio.
3. I LISTENED TO TWO FULL BIO LESSONS, TWO DAYS IN A ROW. Thanks, thanks.
4. B11ATCH trooping into 404 and being completely unproductive but very very happy :))))
5. Something Amazing came today and I think I might wear it to sleep :D
6. ROLL CALL!
7. Comments about MCJ :')
8. Last footdrill session with the sec 3s, very exciting three rounds!!!!! ::::::DDDDDDDDD
9. Long long talk with Rae otw to Orchard, I miss youuu!

Aiya second last session. Accepted it already lah, I guess..?

I don't really want this post to end it means back to yahoo. Ah heck ok I'm going.

Late news, but happy news-
We all made it through to the third round :)))))

And I'm incredibly happy and proud of us all ahhhh. I don't know what the next round is going to bring, but I know a combination of love, hope, and a whole lot of luck brought us here. And it's going to see us through.

:) :) :)

DUDEZ WE ORGANISED A CAMP (with paranormal activity some more) WE CAN TOTALLY SIT THROUGH EIGHT HOURS.

Finally finished reading Election Writeups, and, it's a weird feeling being on the other side of it.

This time last year we were talking and talking about what the next year will bring and what we want to do, what we want to change, (how much time we had left,) and I know the sentiment we all shared was- it's okay, we have b11atch. I don't care who gets CL, who gets PL, because we're b11atch and we can make Guides amazing.

:)

It was an amazing time last year. Full of hope and doubt and fear and courage, but most of all, full of love.

Ahh juniors, don't worry, you've already found your place in Guides, the next few weeks won't change anything. :))))

PGA P&O Camp- don't really know how to do it justice but it was more than amazing. And it definitely was the best Guides training camp I've ever been to- I don't know if it was the same for the campers (but I really hope so), because it really was for me.

There are so many things we've been doing wrongly, in every aspect that was covered during this camp, and there's no time for anger, no time for annoyance, because we've got to pass it down. We've got to teach our juniors everything we learnt during this camp, everything that's proper, conventional, traditional.

And even though the most practical purpose of that would be so that they'll do things right during HQ things, there's so much more to that- it isn't a nice feeling realising that there are so many things you've learnt wrongly, not been taught, never heard of (especially when you know that the "wrong" things have been passed through so many generations without anyone knowing it was wrong because how can all you've known be wrong?), and I don't want them to pass down the wrong skills, to realise that there have been seniors who have known the right ways but they've heard nothing, to realise that what they've been doing all this while is wrong?

And I can't wait, honestly. :)


Camp was amazing amazing amazing :) :) :) :) The ten of us worked so well together, and like what Ms Ng said- there was no competition, everyone just helped each other non-stop, because we could. Didn't have anymore than a total of 30 minutes of rest time throughout the day, before we slept (excluding all the staying up on purpose), and it felt... good. To be constantly in action, doing things for the camp, doing things to make the camp work.

And doing things knowing that everyone else was, too, and that's why, despite all our bites, itches, blisters, aches (back, legs, stomach, head, name it and we have it) we worked like shit hahahaha.

You guys are the best camp staff I could have ever asked for - it's amazing how we have so many different personalities (but mostly centering around Weird and Blur) but we work so well together, we have so much fun, and after only four days of properly knowing each other, we leave feeling like friends, being able to laugh at each other, with each other, inside jokes and retarded aims and whatnot.

I love you guyssss.

Will never forget: red sky, green ponchos, Ms Ng's card, plan to never fall asleep, falling asleep even earlier than previous nights, moonlit romantic night walking, kitchen shelter in two and a half hours, heated shower heads over toilet walls, three night sleeping in lodge (due to Awesomeness, definitely), circling plates full of food (and one minute of eating that lasts forever), bad vegetables taste okay with good fish, mass stomachache after having salad for breakfast, feet completely wrinkled in blister-shaped things (due to lousy shoes and water influx), singing songs, cutting paper, laughing at gigantic cups with gigantic portions, Eating, Eating, Eating So Much, south african apples, spanish mandrin oranges (?!?), laughing, and ahhhh so many things :') :') :')


NYAAAAAAAAHH-

Four years of packing have made me super efficient 8D By my standards.

Never brought so many things to camp before, not even to Cambodia. :/


These four days are going to be tough, I'm sure, but something I've learnt last semester is that when it's over, you'll miss every minute of it.


Do it for b11atch, do it for rafflesguides.

And tonight's chats and emails and whatnot-

Makes about a year's worth of nights.

:')

Fate!

alsdjfl;asdjlf;jaklsdjfl;sadfjalskdjf I better not get any crappy striping letters going HAPPY STRIPING! THANKS FOR BEING A COOL SENIOR. ENJOY JC AND REMEMBER TO COME BACK I hate those NOTHING TO SAY THEN DONT SAY ANYTHING

[Laura]

Don't know why I'm suddenly so struck by... everything, but, ahhhhh. Guides does not end guides will not end apdoibnedpogjefdgfwe, not in our hearts.

At least we've got the best juniors in the world, and that's more than we can ask for. ♥

Two special things are making significant progress!!
Really hope we can get it by T3W1 AHHHHHHH.

GONNA BEG MY MUM FOR $$ this is going to kill all of our pockets.

I LOVE YOU B11ATCH :)))))))))))))

Tired of people who just order. everyone. around.

For all the times I ever said I hated Chinese.

Exactly one year ago, we were thinking about elections, 2011, what we want to do, how we want to do it, why we want to do it.

And I only wish someone had told me this–

What you get doesn’t define you.
You define what you get.

And, QTS, PS, PL, CL, not in COH?
Why does it matter, when in the end, you’re still a Guide.

You’re still a Guide, and you’ll do whatever it takes to give your all. You don’t need status to liberate you; your love does that, and more.


To all the juniors reading this: never doubt yourself. If you doubt yourself, you're doubting your love, you're doubting your batchmates' love, your juniors' trust, and your seniors' faith. You're doubting rafflesguides, you're doubting 94 years of guides whose lives have been changed.

How could you ever doubt passion this great?

All the best. ♥

Okay I've been staring at my laptop all day WHY AM I STILL NOT DONE WITH PROPOSAL :(
Didn't even connect to Internet till now mannn and the Cold Storage website is taking so long to load hahahah I'm a sad kid.

Need to start on Math. :O

Anyway I'm mad happy now hehe :D
Have a song stuck in my head and I think it's Baba Yetu but will not distract myself to an extent large enough to go YouTube it, so.

:D

And I just got a happy happy sms from Rae hahahahaha OK I'M GETTING HIGH.

So what happens when your belief in someone is firmly rooted in your trust and (almost confident) knowledge that she'll never be what majority might be swayed to be, and then, you watch her change?

Different worlds. You need to realise. And there's so little time left; I don't know how it'll end.

But at the same time I don't know if I'm misunderstanding you.

So many thoughts so many things to but, goodnight :(


OKKK SO MUCH FOR MY 2AM GO HIGH I'm not past, or even fully into my emo 12am stage lollll.

Full day sweating with Hanin Kway Shannon Deborah YuLin! :)

Training session for P&O outdoor cooking = extinguished two fires (broken wood, boiling water crashed), sweat a lot, cooked okay food, made good crumble (naturally, since no cooking was necessary), good fish, bad pasta, bad bad bad vegetables, microwaved chicken wings.

And then went to La Tea to cool off :)

8 hours of talking to myself apparently, but today was a happy happy day!

And if you guys ever see this (like how I found an 08 senior's blog this year?!), thank you so much for coming down :) Hope you learnt a lot a lot and got a whole lot more confident when it comes to firelighting in sec three and you guys can totally help with future March Camp cooking!! Hahaha you guys talk too little but, I talk enough for all of us, so. 8D One day you guys can try out for PGA too!!!

AND PLZ REMEMBER THE GUIDE LAWS.
