me and debo were talking about echo08's instructors,

and I was shocked at how much, even to this day that they have impacted me.
they didnt do anything really big. no big talks, no big words. just simple dedication in the case of one, concern when concern was needed in another's case. how they managed to subtly push us. how they made echo just echo.

I still remember times at the student lounge, stage area. the, greet, dont greet or ignore?! the times we just sat around and chatted. how echo went through the rollercoaster of emotions, joyful and happy, gay and high, discouraged, annoyed, angry, pissed.

but we've emerged, stronger? and even, maybe I hope, better leaders.

a timely reminder why I wanted to be an instructor despite not wanting it right at the start, and now that I am one, how to live this legacy on.
