At this time of the year, its always the same thing for me, planning teachers day... Well, its not something new to me at least, i've been doing this since sec 2 i must say i am now a pro when it comes to teachers day...

haha, however somehow this year's teachers day is a little bit awkward, i'm working with a totally different batch of people...

For this year im in charge of a committee, the logistics committee, and im very happy with the performance of this committee of mine so far.. its never been a case where they failed me and never done their designated duties, so im grateful to them for that... and also, i think i had fun working with these people.. =)

I miss the times where I worked with my previous batch of seniors and councillors, spending late nights (almost up to 11 PM) just to do some last minute preparations and move the tables and benches for the classes for Food delight..

I miss the times where I stayed up to do the teachers day video, something I enjoyed doing alot... Now i do stay up late too, but its not cause of that, its cause of the paperwork and protocols and more admin stuff...

Hmm, if i were to look back perhaps my MOST memorable teachers day planning was when I was back in sec 2.. I remember staying up late with my seniors to help out my fellow JE for welfare at that time, Safiyah, and her EXCO haikel... I remember working with adeel and his gang to help us shift the tables, and one funny incident was when he called his sister and addressed himself as 'adik' Yea he is the younger brother, but he is SO very tall no one will look down on him... =P I also remember following that i followed safiyah and adeel to NTUC to search for some stuff at fairprice and how we found it hilarious that adeel knew the specific directions to where the stuff we wanted were at.

And one memory i simply cannot forget was the time I almost broke down thanks to my teacher pressing me for the teachers day video when I told him I had to pass my duties to another member as I was a councillor.. Yes at that point of time, my duties as a councillor and as a member of a certain CCA actually clashed, and there was this point of time my teacher almost made me choose between council and that CCA, but thankfully I didnt have to choose...

Yes I struggled my way up as a councillor back in BP, but now looking back, apart from my classmates it is council that I remember most about my secondary school life...

however now i keep asking myself, Will council be the thing I remember about my JC life after I graduate?? we'll see...

Right now just as i am about to call it a day and switch off my computer and sleep, im given another task to do... great, just great... Hmmmm, sometimes the feeling is just bad when you put in LOTS of hard work in a piece of job and the other party doesnt recognize it.. whats worst, your piece of work just gets edited and when it gets back to you, its as if you've seen it for the first time..

Ookay, now back to more cheerful stuff, Its been quite a while since I last blogged and there are quite a number of things on my mind for me to say out lately.. HAHA! I'll speak my mind of one topic though...Here goes:

that day I watched “The Arena” and the motion was quite interesting… It was “Hey goodlooking! Do good looks determine one’s success in today’s context?”

Well, lets all take it from a realistic point of view… Personally, I feel that good looks DOES determine one’s success in today’s context. Just mention anything at all, from life partners, to job interviews, and you will know that the first impression one gets is from your looks, so if you have good looks, most likely you will be able to score in this section.

Hence I find it quite pointless having a debate on this, cause being the humans we are, looks does play an important part of who we all are. Isnt it right? Haha, cause well, if it wasn’t true in the first place, we all wont be spending time and money trying to find the perfect image of ourselves to portray to others…

If I remembered correctly, it was a very heated debate and it ended off with the proposition winning the debate.. their points? Good looks DOES play a huge role in today’s society, judging on a number of points, with soccer being the main example they pointed out… For example, players like Ronaldinho are so better than David Beckham in terms of soccer, they claim, but David Beckham gets more endorsement deals and all due to the fact he’s more goodlooking.. Therefore in the world of soccer, your skills aren’t really a good measure of how much you earn. Just because you are a good player doesn’t mean you earn more…

Yea relatively true I guess, so I guess that sums it all up, good looks ARE indeed important… You can have a GREAT personality, but if you don’t have the looks, you might not be able to succeed in today’s society…

Well, at least that was the conclusion to some others, so what about you guys? Do YOU believe in this notion??? Hahaa…

Tough one ehh? Ask yourself, if you could choose ONLY between good looks and intelligence, which one would you go for? That might give you a hint so as to how high you value beauty =)

CYA GUYS!
