Hmm.. I'm juz gonna comment a little abt all the ppl who have been putting down the student council yeah.. It's part of human nature to pinpoint others' flaws.. But all I hafta say is the council has definitely not sat back and relaxed, and shook our legs or sth.. We have done a good deal.. And you gotta recall that this year, cca points dun count anymore.. So if we hadn't done the work for the benefit of the school, what else cld we have done it for?
It's not for prestige or anything.. Coz all we got is the SC badge that differentiates us.. Every school day, we appear like any other student isn't it.. Only on the day of investiture, then we get some attention ..
The SC organized the school's annual events, and I think it's a job well done.. Teacher's Day is one achievement I feel most happy about.. I felt that the live bands and other performances on that day really rocked the school =) But maybe there's a lack of new, fun activities.. Time was tight.. So in the end, not much of those cld be carried out.. But we ourselves had badly wanted to have such events.. I believe so.. Coz it wld have been fun for us too, you know?
And I happened to chat with 2 of Meridian's student councillors on the day of our SC investiture, and they also said that they mostly juz organize the mainstream events for their school as well.. Well, that's sad.. At JC/CI level, the students still dun have enough 'voice', I'll say.. In this case, there isn't much difference from being in secondary school..*pffffft*
And so, give our SC the credit it deserves ok.. There're ppl who enjoy shooting out criticisms for the sake of it.. They juz give me e feeling that they do it coz they need to find sth to occupy themselves and pass time.. This post is not refering to anyone in particular at all though.. Fizah has been informing us SCs abt students talking bad abt the council.. I myself know of some who have done it, but I accept some of these comments, while I can't be bothered with other extreme and unconstructive ones..
And actually, one can realize.. Ppl have not come forward to tell the SC what they feel dissatisfied abt, or what changes to the school they hope to see and all.. We have had feedback forms abt canteen food and the school's toilets, and they have been taken into account.. But during dialogue sessions, no students come forward.. There was a Tea and Council session, but the SC had to -go- to the ppl and try so hard to prompt them to give more suggestions.. So, if only ppl can quit shooting criticisms(behind our backs sumore =C), and come forward to suggest sth meaningful.. This whole thing is kinda ironic..
Ok, that's all abt this issue.. Now I wanna declare I plan to cut down on recreation time already.. Time is getting tight again! I shall blog even less often than before.. Then I hope I dun go waste my time on other activities, like watching shows..=S I hope to study my ass off.. Hahah.. I wanna put this down in words like a kind of promise, u see.. And like a song of Wu Yue Tian says, if I break a promise to myself, even if others forgive me for it, I shld be the one not forgiving myself..
So, I formally put it down here: I, (insert name), hereby declare that I shall cut down on recreation time, and actually do some REAL studying whenever I place a book/notes in front of myself.
There.. Haha.. Din put down my name coz it seems silly.. But this is already so very silly.. Lol.. Still, feel free to copy and paste the declaration in ur blogs too if u actually want to..X)
But yes, this I promise myself..
Will blog another time, even if not too soon! : )
