5 hall events in 2 weeks and...

Okay there was a series of events over the past 2 weeks as below...

Phoenix Fest... once again the cultural event of the year and must I say it was a blast. But I couldn't help but wonder if pressure from certain quarters again had a hand in the way things turned out...

Inter Hall Bash. Well, it seemed that there wasn't any support from certain quarters. But the event was a blast nevertheless. To all the naysayers, a pity you guys missed it. :/

Open House. Good given the constraints we faced and it's something good to chew on for next year when we will be one of the halls hosting. There was some fallout after that (again from certain quarters) for which I reserve my comments.

IHG supper. An event for the sportsmen to come together and celebrate the end of the Inter Hall Games... and also for the deserving sportsmen and sports teams to receive their awards.

DnD. This year we held it at CHIJMES Cathedral (appropriate place for Maundy Thursday but needless to say not an appropriate date.) It is always the event that, good or bad, always centers around one thing - it's just like Seniors' Night which we had in JC. Taking pics with our hall friends whom we all got to know (and love? tsk tsk) this academic year. Come the next one they may or may not continue their stay but the memories is one that will stay with us throughout our lives.

For "The Organisation". Good to see one major issue successfully tackled. However I see some MAJOR lethargy on the part of "ketua-ketua kita". Whether this will be solved soon by the parties concerned, saya tak tahu... but knowing the way things are, this will only be solved by change in leadership. But when will this happen? We don't know as there are currently no (suitable) candidates to take up the middle management posts that will eventually lead to them taking up key positions in The Organisation. What will soon happen is that there are insufficient people doing the leg work and too big a gap between the senior and the junior. It is akin to a house being constructed with the correct foundation but too heavy on top and too little support in between. What happens next? You don't have to be a civil engineer to know the consequence... UTTER COLLAPSE

"The Other Organisation" ain't faring much better either.
