Happy New Year *woo*.. wow another year has come and gone. 1 more year and we'll all be in army sigh..
Every single year before this i've always made resolutions that included getting decent grades and losing weight... Hehe for some reason the latter has never come true for me ^^. This year i resolve...
To be a good OGL. In some respect I'm kind of surprised that I've actually made it this far, since i didn't expect to become OGL in the first place. And like being upgraded from a 3-man OGL team to a 2 man one, Gen and I. Wow talk about surprises...
And sometimes i wonder to myself whether by earning this privilege, i may have deprived someone who perhaps had more passion/energy/ability of the chance of serving the school. Yeah like Mam...saw him in the canteen today and he said he regretted not going for befriender's. I think he'd have made a great OGL.
And we had this OGL training camp thingy some time back where we sat around with teachers and asked ourselves questions about our goals for orientation and ways to reach out to the j1s. (I keep thinking sec 1s -.- like they're so innocent haha) One of the questions really stuck out and that was "How are you gonna be a role model?" Am I a good role model? Academically? Emotionally? Am i gonna be able to keep the OG spirit burning bright long after orientation? I rmb my OG like died after 1 month or so coz the OGLs didnt even turn up sometimes, whereas hehe some OGs are still gathering for lunch nowadays. Or maybe the OG spirit wasn't strong enough to keep everyone together in the first place so after a while we kinda drifted apart. I don't want that to happen again...
Sometimes i feel something along the lines of resentment (so strong a word) for my guy OGL (even tho i appreciate all he's done) coz after orientation he just let the whole thing drop, like orientation was orientation and after that it'd be (chop) the end. Wasn't really enthu about stuff, just very sui bian, as tho he was just fulfilling some duty or obligation. And to top it off, he couldn't dance well haha.
SO! Hopefully I can find the strength to rise up to the challenge; hopefully everything we've prepared so far goes according to plan: the food, the presents, the activities and games... Haha after all, if one fails to plan, one plans to fail right? Comon Chris, it's all you..you can do it.
Here's to tomorrow. Cheers.
ABUNDANT PEACE :)
