LOOKING AHEAD... n_n

Ho Seh la man u win 1-0! Man City play like thugs duh. Cant believe how they can get away with so many hackings and manhandling of ronaldo. I thought it was a bad bad performance from the ref as well. Somemore wes brown never even touch the guy and he fell down as if stone cold steve austin gave him a stunner. Lydat also can penalty ah wah lau. Thank god for Van Der Sar!

Well well well, exams are over indeed. And like i told jackson and guan guan during mahjong yest, its kinda wierd coz this is the FIRST ever proper 3 month break i have without mc commitments haha. Even the previous Dec holidaes didnt count so much coz it was only a few weeks long. For the past 2 years, everytime exam end oredi then need to prepare massively for fop. All the publicity, marketing, pr need to be done very much in advance. Then got all the meetings plus need to start doing Rag everydae liao. Before one noes it, Arts Camp pre-camp ll be here, and then the Camp proper, and then 1 by 1 everything start rolling in. Somemore exco need to start planning for elections and even rop also. Haha, then end up need to go back clubroom/ school/ ragsite almost every day even during 3 month holidaes.

Those were the daes man. Tough, time-consuming, sometimes pek chek also, esp when got quarrels or work unhappiness setting in. But i never regret man. =) It is thru fop and these tough times that so many touching memories and friendships are shared, where heroes rise and a new beginning is born once again. Where year1s step up to the scene as councilors, as o com members, as pds, as seniors....

And as leaders.

Its very interesting really. =) Every year i observe very closely how yr1s behave when they suddenly realize that they are seniors themselves liao. And start to realize that what they say and how they behave towards the new incoming freshies have a lot of weight, and ll influence how freshies perceive fop and arts club. And also see for themselves how they were like when they were freshies themselves. Kinda akin to looking at a mirror haha.

As for me, these hols i ll be busy with the Global Youth Symposium (starting to prepare liao, leaving in 1 week's time), SMUN, 2 week high-key reservist (duh), Bukit Panjang YEC elections (if i run) and some part-time work to earn extra income. This is also probably going to be my 4th and last ever fop liao, so to be frank, its going to be quite nostalgic, sentimental and special to me. Really hope i ll be able to do house ic with chonghan though. Haha, i have been hoping to do it since yr1 but never had the chance for the past 2 years due to my positions. I think i can feel it in chong also. We both 1st got to noe each other thru yr 1 Raphaus, and now i think we both hope to be able to go for our last fop as house ics together, and it ll really mean a lot to us. Also very touched and encouraged by all the lao jiao year3s and my yr1 yr2 juniors who told me that if i m selected, they wanna come back again to be in same house haha! Thanks for the faith dudes~ n_n

As a result of all these preoccuptions (reservist most disruptive man..right in e middle of july duh), unfortunately, i wont be able to go for internship this hols, but i ll def do a six-week internship during the year-end hols instead. Prob is that might be harder to find 6-week intern programs, somemore at end of the year, but that wont stop me from looking.
