Hmm?

I've always been a person of ambition.

Back when I was still a yound lad, I was a shy kid. When my parents had friends or co-workers over, I'd bashfully hide away behind my parents or keep myself away in my room until the coast was clear. In school, my mother encouraged me to be among the Top 3 in class, and I was - until I passed the PTS exam and got found myself skipping one year ahead in studies and thereby landing among the bottom 3 instead.

Those years were harder - struggling against a batch of people who were smarter, bigger, stronger and sneakier. Believe me, it was better to remain invisible than to be picked on or bullied.

Then everything changed when Form 4 came along and I started getting involved with co-curricular activities. This, I have to thank Jason G for pushing me to do something unchartered but was best for my growth. Holding a post in St John's Ambulance as a secretary made me realise my qualities - organisation skills, paperwork player and minute taker - that is helping me til this very day.

Then Form 6 came, and Interact quickly became my forte when they made me president of the club. Mind you, I didnt think I owuld make it through the year what with all the drama of people planning to take over the post and having 23 committee members (yes, I still remember who!) to keep track of. So it helped very much. AND! Prefectorial Board was the BEST! From that period I met many amazing friends who I keep in touch with til today and I never forget that. :)

University life was a bit more difficult due to the fact that I was doing something different and unusual for me - accounting. It was all Greek and stupors of blurness from 2006 to 2009. But with the aid of CPA ASC, Debate club and other flings with co-curricular activities, I found my niche. I love organising events and crafting.

Now that I'm in the working world, I am in a bigger sea with many smaller ponds to venture into. How? What? Where? Journalism is fantastic! It gives you keys to so many doors that the information overload, the possibilities are astounding. And along the way, you get to savour moments in life.

So, what of it then?
