The Artist Block Experience III

I feel emotionally grateful to all out sponsors, my classmates, our facilitators, and those members of the community who helped us. The entire CWTS was a huge learning experience for me. Personally, I would really like to that Mr. Anil for being very patient with all of us since the first day.

I actually remember how I was always late for the afternoon classroom sessions. And I even remember just how late I was for the first meeting. I have to admit, I didn't who Sir Anil was at that time. I had to ask people from my CAO group to understand just how much respect he deserves.

During the first meetings, he was able to make us feel comfortable around each other and at the same time, plant seeds of long-term solutions within all of us. That first meeting, I realized just how wise he was for his age and just how amazing of a person he was.

When we had problems during the execution of the project, he was there to lecture us on our mistakes and at the same time, understand our reasons and accept our apologies for our shortcomings.

Our project head, Joshua, was also really amazing. During both terms of CWTS, he had such heavy loads from our organization, but he was still able to pull it off. It was almost a miracle. And to all the amazing CAO friends that I got to know because of CWTS (and my amazing social skills /charot/), I salute them for all their hard work and all the heart they gave for our project to push through.

Now that the eternally tiring CWTS is done, I miss it. I'll see everyone around school. Sir Anil is leaving, but I know I'll always remember him for as long as I get neither amnesia nor Alzheimer's.
