RANDOM THOUGHTS

i ditched my team today. FOR ONCE!
its high time i started doing so anyways. i cant be meeting them all the time.
and i finally had my first lunch OUT of school with elaine and xin - raffles city thai express bistro. the food was yummilicious and i swear that the servings are bigger than those at the usual outlets. at least the green curry chicken was. hahaha. we shared all our mains and ordered an extra entree, the chicken wing which was goooood. and this turned out to be a super belated bday lunch by those 2 babes.
i love you girls *huggies* :)


its week 4 already. motor engine revved to high mode.
started mugging normal mode, and soon to switch to high mode.
one difference this sem is that, i've made the effort to really mug and read up for classes, unlike the past few years. though i think im still struggling behind for audit because of its weird timing, friday noon. :( i've gotta buck up!! but it feels good to be mugging. though i wont be having much of a rest until next june i guess.

started coordinating trip to cambodia and we had our first briefing last friday. alvin had fun teasing me and joyce about the horrendous shopping trips we made the guys go for in shanghai and i nearly threw some weird drink at him. the year ones were extremely amused. then me and alvin stayed back to discuss selection of main comn, while chatting with another year 2 who came to take a look, sharing our experiences and all. nice nice. :) it feels good to be participating in a cca, and combining it with doing what i love. :) and this time round, its not just local, its international. makes me feel good yea teehee.

im faintly amused that there are people out there who have the impression that singapore discovery centre = singapore science centre. the only common point they share, is that they are both located in the west.
and and some one actually asked, what has teaching national education has got to do with comn serve. i was faintly irked when i saw that comment. felt so 不值得 for my team. ><

comn serve doesnt have to be all about going to kids centre and teaching them skills. its not all about going to old folks home and brightening up their day.
community service is all about giving back to the community, the society.
its all about giving whatever you can to the society which has given you so much.
you cant judge and say, what is comn serve and what is not. it is not a tangible matter.

i guess, these people dont really know what this leadership teambuilding module is all about. its about returning something to the society in the best way you can, and building up your team leadership skills at the same time.

so disappointed with some of the responses i saw. sigh.

side note: im craving for steak again! even though i had a good share at nuss guild house last wed. i want somemore. hogs breath cafe, anyone? :)
