Wah, the last few daes have been really hectic and tiring man. Slept only a few hours each dae..and not becoz of the World cup.

Mail run finally settled and sent out le, and so much earlier than last yr! Phew, thats a great relief.. ^_^ now is to wait for the new freshies to open their mailbox and call little india le haha..i realize i m more excited bout this yr's Arts Camp in a different way...as in, i m really keen to see the new incoming freshies, and to spot for potential talents who might be interested in running for Arts Club..and at the same time, i m really excited to see how the rest of the 26th wud behave as seniors, or lao laos as they like to call me, bobsie, and rayner haha..

Once Arts Camp starts, there's no turning back le..they ll no longer be freshies..they ll be seniors in the eyes of the new incoming freshies..and most likely they ll see how they themselves had behaved 1 year ago haha..when u re a senior, sometimes its like looking into a mirror, seeing things/mistakes/achievements tat u yrself has made as a freshie...

There were a few really tough and heavy decisions to be made in the last few daes, which partly explains the hecticness and fatigue i feel. Decisions result in consequences which in turn result in taking up responsibility for these consequences. Therefore, before making them, one has to really process the thoughts, pros and cons, of those decisions.

A lot of people around has been feeling tired and down recently. Looking at them reminds me of myself last yr, who felt xian and disappointed at various stages with MC life, particularly during Sem 2 where there re so many projects and before Arts Camp..and of coz, when various personal factors including relationship with friends, gf/bfs, family, etc get strained....I do hope and pray that these people can find the meaning and rainbow behind what they re doing 1 day...I found mine on the last dae of Arts Camp 2005..hmmm..i hope they can find theirs too... =) to each his own...

Behind every dark cloud, and after every storm is a rainbow.....i do feel that in life, everyone has to make choices. Every choice will affect the future in some way. Sometimes, a good way to look back at whether u have made the right choice is to ask yrself, "If i do not do this, will i regret it for the rest of my life?" If your answer to this question at that point when u re making the decision is "yes..i ll regret it if i dun do this..", then do not look back and regret your decision.

Becoz sometimes life is too short to regret about the past. Look ahead to the future, and if u still cant help feeling remorse or regret, then try yr best to do concrete actions to wash away the past.

In life, every decision u make will involve a choice, an opportunity cost, and a sacrifice in some way.

Yupz..someone asked me a few daes ago whether i ll worry if no one in the 26th re-runs. My answer last time wud be a "yes, i ll be worried", but looking back, esp after learning from last yr's elections and ROP camp..i feel it is the personal decision of every single individual, and at the end of the dae, it is no point forcing or persuading anyone to re-run if they do not have the passion or the heart to re-run..

like i said earlier, in life, every decision one makes will involve a choice, an opportunity cost, and a sacrifice in some way. If one cannot override or overcome the sacrifices involved for another yr, then one shouldnt re-run.

thought about all these as i was thinking bout the future these few daes as well..haha..

Bobsie and i were also looking at a picture which the com took together when we stepped up at thank-you dinner last yr..haha..brought up quite a lot of memories..but also cleared a lot of my thoughts..at the end of the dae, i do really wish to see a happy, relaxed, mature, and proud 26th step down..yupz..every passing dae is a dae towards Thank-you dinner 2006 hahaha..
