It has been a year; a year since we had our post-LTC dinner, a year since we really bonded together as one, a year since all the friendships became kinship, a year when saintsodac became a family forever unbroken. Yesterday we had our annual post-LTC dinner. Although it came a little later than last year, the spirit was still there. Our spirit that burns brightly forever. Not everyone went down though, some had things on which was such a pity. How i wish it was full strength last night. But an amazing 20 people went down for the dinner and i swear all of them believe that it is the best dinner we ever had. We havoc Seoul Garden with our laughter and nonsense but who cares? All that we cared about last night was to take as many photos as possible so that the memories wil lie in us forever. All we cared about was talking and having fun together as a family. All we cared about was to cook the meat enough so that there was no LTC food poisoning syndrome. All that we cared about was just to be together as one.

It really brought back a lot of memories, last night. I was thinking about how we finally had good food after LTC camp last year. It was 2000 after we bought our supplies for Ophir and then we were so famished that we really wanted to eat something in huge amount. Seoul Garden was the outcome. Thinking about how we gobbled up the food and kept taking meat in large amounts until we had to play games to finish the food. Thinking how you see geok hian competing with weihao to finish the digusting post-mix food. How we kept taking videos and laughing at them when weihao lost. Thinking about how reluctant we were when it was time to go back and have a day rest before Ophir. Carrying the big packets of food supplies and taking pictures in the middle of the walkway. I hope this will not be the last ODAC dinner we have together. Really do.

Our Lives (The Calling)

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Of a better life

In this world
Divided by fear
We've gotta believe that
There's a reason we're here
Yeah, there's a reason we're here

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

See the truth all around
Our faith can be broken
And our hands can be bound
But open our hearts and fill up the emptiness
With nothing to stop usIs it not worth the risk?
Yeah, is it not worth the risk?

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
Cause these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

We can't go on
Thinking it's wrong
To speak our minds
I've gotta let out what's inside

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Can we get it right?
Yeah, well can we get it right?

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
Because these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
