Well, this post is a review of my past term and the lessons learned. Hmm.... to begin with, I think this term has been the most xiong 15 weeks of my life. Seriously lah. I still remember that at week 1 I already felt as if I was in week 10 already. This term the difference is that I'm more involved in Uni-Y. Was really inspired to help Yihan to achieve his vision of changing the mugging culture in SMU. First few weeks of school was really quite fun helping daniel to set up his marketing department and strengthen his department. During this period was also even able to get zhi wei and daniel liew, 2 of my best friends in SMU to join Uni-Y under social entrepreneurship also.
Then of course this term also involves studies. Those boring stuff.... But this term, thank God that all my project groupmates are awesome! They don't shun away from work, have great attitude towards work. I must say they have better attiitude towards work than me. So really thank them for all the hardwork and effort put in the past 15 weeks and thanks for the chance for me to learn from you guys while doing project with you. Well, I know that its not easy to work with me. Thanks for the patience and tolerance with me. You are simply awesome.
Then also, so many things that I set out to do in the beginning of this sem are left undone at the end of the day. Like weekly guitar sessions, completing a book in 1 month and weekly doing of housework. Guess being overwhelmed but all the pressures of life. Just like Mr donkey who is stuck in the well. I really need to shake the soil that is on my body (which represents the pressures all around) and press on so that I can gt out of the pit. Jia you eric.
Some positives that can be drawn from the past term is that I felt that I have drawn closer to God. Now I have longer prayer times and also I'm more sensitive in the spirit so more stronger spiritually. Also this term has been helping out in being a buddy with the bridging students. Currently has 8 buddies now. Not sure if I can have the capacity to follow up on all of them. Will do my best nevertheless. Hope that I will continue to make a meaningful impact to their lives before they leave Singapore.
Well its week 16. Closer and closer to the release of results. In fact just got back my IE result le. Realistically speaking compared to last term, I might not get better results than last term. But God is good and miracles do happen. I'm sure the results that I get would be a grade that I deserve. Its been a great term. Xiong but I learned alot.
Think I've reached the point of diminishing marginal returns. So tired. Just came back from Uni-Y retreat. time is 12.20. Past bedtime. GoodnightZzz.....
