Argh! Blogger has a new layout! I want the old layout back!
....
*sigh*
change. It always have to happen when you least expect it... now must get used to it... arggghhh! =P
Well came across this malay song lyric(well i'm not actually sure if it is a song lyric in the first place cause i dont listen to malay songs that much neither do i know who sang this song...) in one of my friend's blog, really like the lyrics... well it meant something to me at least.. would love to translate for those of you who dont understand malay but unfortunately i suck at malay translations cause my malay aint that gd =P But i can tell u that the title means Secrets of the Heart... =P
Rahsia Hati
Waktu terus berlalu
Tanpa kusadari yang ada hanya
Aku dan kenangan
Masih teringat jelas
Senyum terakhir yang kau beri untukku
Tak pernah ku mencuba
Dan tak ingin ku mengisi hati ku
Dengan cinta yang lain
Kan kubiarkan ruang hampa didalam hidupku
Bila aku harus mencintai dan
Berbagi hati itu hanya denganmu
Namun bila ku harus tanpamu
Akan tetap ku harungi hidup tanpa bercinta
Hanya dirimu yang pernah tenangkanku
Dalam pelukmu saat ku menangis
The thing about my malay is that it is so sucky that as i read back on this lyrics, i dont understand what the hell it is trying to say.. it kinda dont make sense.. the grammer and stuff =P I only understood the first paragraph which actually means something to me.. for the rest part of it.. well lets just makes me sick =P What some ppl might call it too "jiwang" erm to translate it erm... too lovey dovey i think, ask somebody else to translate if you want the proper meaning =P well.. reason why i dont listen to malay songs that much cause loads of em are very "jiwang".. Especially if you come across their music videos... eww... *faints* =P
+++++++++++++++
Man i wanna go cycling... guys when are we going to east coast? is the outing still on cause till now NO news! *sigh* i think my last resort is to go on my own... might as well do it myself instead of waiting until god knows when... Seriously, lemme know when you guys decide. =)
++++++++++++++
Something suddenly comes to mind.. why i never talk abt anything regarding law inc? well... hmm... if i say anything i bet i'm gonna get a trashing cause there's like this unspoken law that you dont go around talking about such stuff... like must protect image lah, etc, etc... *sigh* but we got nothing to hide what. The thing is we are a student interest grp. We represent our student body, we serve the student body. Shouldnt they know what goes on?
Take for e.g this scenario where i ask a couple of students this question...
"Do you know who is in Law Inc?" and the usual answers you will get lets say for e.g a yr 1 student,
"oh i only know the ones frm yr 1s which is you, mx and bertram." then you ask again..
"Dont you know the other members from yr 2s?" their ans will be,
"urm.. no.. i dont know the ppl frm yr 2s"
*me stumped*
i ask myself... isnt there something wrong somewhere? How come the students themselves do not know who are the ppl who "serves" them? Isnt there something wrong with this ongoing system?
Take another scenario where i ask another student this question...
"Heyz why are you not going for this event?" the typical answer that i get...
"Oh dont want lah, not intrested" or it would be
"i busy lah got a lot of things to do... dont see the point of it..."
again *me stumped*
Arent these events that are organised for the students? Why the few turnouts? Why the lact of interest? There's definitely something wrong somewhere.
I'm just being honest here. The conversations are all true accounts.
Maybe i know where its going wrong. But for now there's nothing i can do about it except putting in my best and reach out to the masses, well not masses more like the student body =P Hopefully things will improve in the next academic year and past mistakes are learnt...
Well i still have my sunshine camp to look forward too! Even thou its postponed i'm glad i stil have ppl intrested in this project. Well new approach in the camp needs to be thought up so mtg the main comm ppl and fund raising comm tmr =) FYI for those who donno what sunshine camp is about, its basically a camp where we get to interact with kids from the diff orphanages in singapore, kinda like giving back to the community, letting these kids basically have fun cause i personally know how boring it can get in the orphanages. =)
Gonna have an individual evaluation anytime this coming weeks and i think i can predict what's mine gonna be like. I dont interact much with the lecturer in charge. I have no events that i was incharge of so i so called didnt get a chance to "prove" myself, heck whatever that means but it doesnt matter to me actually cause events arent everything cause in the end its how you serve the student body... Well in my views i'm not much of a PR & Publicity secretary cause everytime an event has low or not so gd turnout, basically I get screwed cause publicity always gets the blame, and this is not assumptions cause this i what i personally hear... well i can bring up my own defence but i rather not say anything here. Lets just say i take ownership. Maybe it is my fault for the lack of strong publicity... Anyways i see myself more like the behind the scenes person which i dont actually mind. I'm there whenever help is needed and i volunteer when i think ppl would need my help. KInda the main reason why i wanted to join law inc frm the start. (oh for those of you who didnt know i'm not an original law inc member, i was a very late addition =P) Oh and on the PR side i do promote law inc to students.. but more like a one on one kind of thing cause to me its more personal =D
Actually all in all law inc is a gd experince, learned a lot bout myself and stuff. I do hope all i've said are not viewed negatively. Nothing in this world is perfect. Mistakes are made and learnt from, there's always room for improvements.
(ok think i'm seriously gonna get it for airing my views here.. but seriously wat's wrong with that? ok i should shuddup now...)
Hmm.. i think i've said too much already in this entry =P well goin off to do some brainstorming for some upcoming stuff... =P
Cheerios!
