Appreciation Night

Two days ago when I blog this. Have many thoughts running through my mind but I somehow seems to forget about them since it was two days ago.

First of all I shall start off with my third day of work, I was wearing the not-so-hawaii outfit to work. Feeling abit weird, I think I could have just wore my dress that my mum bought for me. =( Anyway I was sorting out all the thick thick invoices and finally completed one cupboard of it. I thought I finish my job while waiting HS to come back, then she told me that I have another bigger cupboard to do. ARH!!! And I have been slacking for one hour. I should put the one hour into good use. I finished my three days but I still haven't finish doing those stuff! I wonder how is it like tomorrow... I better finish all the stuff by tomorrow morning. Not to mention suffering many paper cuts and staple cuts. =(

I quickly went off to attend the RSPHI appreciation dinner. Met deric and xinying at jurong east before meeting wanlin at yew tee mrt. Bottle tree park is a nice place but kind of ulu in the sense that when it comes to night time, one can hardly see anything. Many people were wearing the theme but some of the working people didn't. Though I was kind of wearing the theme too. They started the event when we reached and we just queue up for the buffet. As usual, Woods have only few turn up. 6 of us. Then they played the video compiled for us from the day we entered interview room until the day all of us finished our centre events. Quite nostalgic feeling that I have joined a good CCA. I met many good friends and fun friends. But of course there are still people whom I shall not get too close with some times. Ca depends! Most of all, I have done something meaningful in doing volunteering work and reaching out to people in promoting deaf awareness. That's something that I can proudly say and something for me to take back with in my Uni life.

Next was the election of the 16th committee. I guess all of those people nominated have the capability to bring RSPHI to greater heights. It is a matter of leadership and competitiveness. How good the impression you give to people? Well, I may not be right in saying this. Haha. Next up was the centrehead elections. It was a walkover partly because there were so few of us and also for personal reasons I chose to back out running for it. I have confidence in them in doing a good job for Woodlands centre. Millions support!!! At some point in time we were still talking about removing this centre... we were just crapping but, there is still some distance away for Woodlands to work harder especially ensuring the smooth running of tuitions every Saturday. Something which I am concerned about is, since there are so few of us, every body is crucial in our tuition centre. How do we ensure woodpeckers feel a sense of responsibility and belonging to us before we improve our tutor's attendance. The line lies here when tutors start to one by one pon our sessions, not to say our centre event. That's something to ponder about especially we have more volunteers next semester. Next up is that they asked alot of questions about bonding. I still feel something is lacking that, the high ones will bond among themselves especially after song signing and centre events. The bonding then, stops there. How many people still know every single one of them in the CCA? I guess the answer is no. Actually all of them are great people, perhaps it is the style of leadership which matters most working together in the committee. I am not willing to sacrifice alot of things for RSPHI. But I will still contribute with my best as a member. Some may say that we need to balance studies and CCA, I feel that if we were to talk about this. We will say it's a matter of time management. Moreover, if I were to be very very study-minded, I won't even bother to sign up for a CCA in RSPHI anyway. So I am on the fence that I will be a member instead of the comm before I affect the comm in one way or another. I starting to lost interest in many things in life. Why? Is it because of my poor health that I often fall sick whenever I get stress and busy with work? I am happy with what I have here, RSPHI with many friends, and studying something which I like and going to apply it in the near future. The enthusiasm in me is losing. I am very often active in doing CCA stuff, bonding and all sorts of nonsense. But when it comes to uni, I started to lost interest in all that. Take for example, I used to love singing, but now I lost interest in that, completely. Perhaps there are greater priorities and responsibility that I have to take note of. Of course, I don't want my uni life to be plain without life. But at the same time, I lost interest in many things I used to like. Contradiction. Something is wrong with me. I hope to take back as many fond memories as possible. But how?

Enough of the "I"s... Talking about leadership. People have different styles in leading. I adopt a friendlier style in trying to understand everyone needs. Earn a form of respect. Okay, I guess I shal stop giving this kinds of answers. Of course, if one is up there answering the floor, they could have been nervous and didn't think critically enough. In life, it's either about lead or follow. For now, I guess I will choose to follow, but if I see something not right. I will change it.

Sidetrack, many people say I have the Chinese face. My student is worse, he said I have the banana accent. Breaks my heart! Haha...

Silence is a virtue. It is a beauty. I dislike noises and irritation.
