:: thinking through things ::

I sit down
looking through my stuffs
and thinking through the many happenings
that has happened during this holidays
and as i plan for the next week or so
and for the new semester..

Love:
its a complicated thing
between 2 persons
even more so between 2 guys
especially between 2 people who are so different
in many ways
yet sharing the same passion in life
and in this real world
real things happen
and feelings get tweaked

there's too much between us
and around us
for me not to feel tired
but because we love each other so much
we are able to look past these things
and appreciate each other
forget about the flaws
forgive one and others' misdemeanors
and love on like nothing happened..
i wish
this will stay on..
and on..

was at a class chalet i spearheaded
and am I glad that although the turnout was small
but we had fun
and bonded well
i had a chance to bond with the people were going to
be in the same class as me
and we talked also about many things
about class
about life
it was..
nice:)

attended BBE YEC's first meeting..
was a nice session selecting the committee
and the various office bearers..
there's going to be a lot to learn from
being a grassroots leader
in this youth group
and i look forward to working with this dynamic bunch of people
from different walks to life
to organise events for my constituency
and making friends in my neighbourhood
btw..
after little rounds of "elections" and "votings"
i am part of the sports and wellness team,
as well as the New Media and Publicity Secretary..
interesting..
as i hope to hone my skills in design and publication
doing publicity works and such
as well as maintaining good new media health
in the group.
might be able to apply wat i learn from webby design in the new sem..

currently out of dragonboating for awhile
because since i left for vietnam till now
my weekends are all jam packed
so..
no river regatta and db trainings for me this half year..:(

as for my new style in the new sem
i've decided
that i should be a fashion boy like i've always targetted
and go all out in dressing everyday
i've bought a big new collection for this sem
and hope to create new styles that will blow ppl's mind
and upping my own style quotient
to go well with my new fashion blog i plan for next year
as well as our little designing tees business:)
my great clothes collection from uniqlo n topman n river island n g2000
all waiting for me:)

that also brings me to another point..
i'm broke
and my lines are cut off temporary again..
i need to get a work
and try to pay off things for myself..
i dun noe how long more i can sustain a lifestyle like tt
without working
and i feel bad when i swipe the card each time..
well well..
any good job offers to fit my timetable?

and fitness calls..
i need to get a healthy lifestyle
gym n swim.,.
alot alot alot next sem..
loose weight!
with determination and sheer spirit.
i believe!!

alot in my mind
weighing me down..
if u don't see me smile so much
u understand
i've too much load
going through too much
i only hope to do my best in each section
and excel!

for now
i think i need to concentrate and enjoy whatever i have

HMS leadership camp from mon-thurs..
well well..
looking for other commitments..
and also job+money:)

:: grassroots ::

Probably not known to many of my friends

but i'm pretty active in my own community

often taking part in the activities organised by my CC and RC..

like tours to malaysia, cooking classes,

wine sessions, your regular festival celebrations and such

and it is one of my "dreams" to serve my community

as a grassroot leader

to make my affection to my neighbourhood and country known

(in fact, i love the people in white and aspire to be one,

tt i joined young PAP too.. haha..)

my little dream was a little closer

from today

as i joined my area

Bukit Batok East Youth Executive Committee

to serve my quaint little neighbourhood

and organising activities for the young people in the area..

I've long heard of the youth group and

People's association youth movement

and been trying to get myself involved,

since my pubescent secondary school days

but no news was heard of

and the group always seemed quiet and distant

until recently i got to know of my CC's YEC

thru a volunteers gathering

(i'm volunteering to help out my own RC activities too..)

and this journey began,

the nomination and meetings

till today the Biennial General Meeting

when i've confirmed gotten a seat in the committee.. haha

(it was considered an election,

but.. erm.. walkover la.. heng heng got enough seats for the nominees..)

i don't know what it will be like

but i certainly hope to get myself much more involved

for this is my neighbourhood

if i don't step up and do my part

in making this a tightly knit neighbourhood

who will?

i believe this little journey of being a "little grassroots member"

will be a fruitful one filled with endless

learning opportunities and even more chances to make

friends in my community

and also proves to be steps in my growing journey

as a person and as a community leader (hopefully) in future.

look forward to what may come...
