NPCC Officers' Day presentation

Well I attended the abovementioned event today, a bit embarrassingly due to my unexpected haircut. But overall it was great. Met up with a lot of old friends.

Most of my co-helpers for SYFOC were all over the place as they were seated with their Areas, or in the case of HOs, with their Open Units. but I did manage to locate some of them for a short chat and photos of course! What I feel was the highlight was that the CIs formed a band to entertain us with some songs, and in between that one of them played the piano for us. She's actually my senior from RV who might be going for this year's OBTC... see how ba.

With that that's probably the last NPCC related activity I will be attending until HOBTC perhaps. And after that, I probably can't be active anymore due to my academic committments in the 2nd sem of year 2, which all of us ME students know is a real tough sem.

But I will be hanging around.. for the friends which I have made there. :) And I will still help if needed, as a friend in need is a friend indeed. :)

Bad hair day? Try this

before and after.


Lesson No. 1: If your barber is an 'old uncle' (politically correct term: elderly gentleman), DO NOT tell him that you want your hair short. Cos his definition of 'short' and yours is different.

Lesson No. 2: Never tell your barber how often you intend to get your hair cut. My current style will probably take about 4-5 months to grow back.

Lesson No. 3: Do not tell your barber 'no need to cut like army style' ... reverse psychology kicked in in my case

Lesson No. 4: To get funny styles like Armani, the Malay barbers are the best. They seem to know all the styles there are out there...

my school life lately

Now for an update into my school life..

Been very busy with mainly school work itself. I dun understand how the concert people are managing.. or are they preparing themselves to screw up this sem?? I hope not..

Mid term break is more like a mugging break.. haha.. but got good friends to study together with.. that's all that matters :)

A touching video

sure to change our lives...

Speaks for itself... that's how our Father God loves us :)

mid-sem crisis?

It's been a long while since I blogged about my hall life... so here
goes.

Orientation was fun, got to meet quite a bit of people and the
juniors this year are a fun and enthusiastic bunch! but whether that
translates into them staying back once the reality of studies and all
sink in remains to be seen...

A new batch of JCRC members have taken over the reins of the hall and
I hope that they will be able to bring the hall to greater heights..

As for my upcoming hall activities, I have chosen more of cultural
activities this time round. Hope it runs well...

Some events have transpired which have kind of scuttled my plans for
this coming year. But it's alright, nothing major, probably Priority
One should be to focus on my studies. Actually, frankly speaking, I
do not know whether I want to continue to stay for the remaining 2
years in hall. I may choose to go on SEP and then it will be a
problem coming back in my final year. But it doesn't really matter
much to me - things will work itself out. I've got to focus more on
the things of more importance to me...

Sep 11. 5 years on.

5 years ago today were the events that shook the world.

They made us realise how fragile the world situation is, and how such a superpower as the US can be so easily compromised.

That day, life was never the same again. I remember that day, I woke up to see an SMS from my friend about it. When I reached school, teachers and students alike were talking about it. The mood was sombre. No one knew what would happen next.

5 years on, Iraq has been invaded, Saddam Hussein has been captured, Osama bin Laden remains at large, and bombings have taken place in Madrid, London, Bali and claimed hundreds of lives...

We do not know what tomorrow brings... and therefore we must treasure our lives, what we have, the people around us whom we love and care for. These are the things that truly matter...

As we read this, let's observe one minute silence for the thousands who lost their lives in 9/11, Bali, Madrid, London...

God rest their souls.
