My Greatest Experience by Far..
Moon Cake Festival 2006
Whoah! It’s finally over *tears of joy* =D
First and foremost, I would like to thank the Chinese Society for helping us, for their full support and efforts. Especially, MS FOH for the best suggestion and guidance throughout this project.
this project started since the day i went to penang for the st. anne's feast.. suddenly the idea of having a moon cake festival come forth, and thus my major fund-raising and school service project for the year ^^'
Through these past few months, I learnt a lot especially about myself
I learnt:
- How to deal with irritating and annoying people who will just drive you up the wall
- How to irritate them back =P and make them feel the same way
- How to cook myself in a stuffy room for 3 long hours with these monkeys
- How to ignore the ranking of a person (sounds bad but yeah, just had to) because their ideas are just plain stupid
- How to argue your way through just to get things straight
- How to be patient and explain a million times to get a simple message like this is the layout of the security ~.~ , imagine me in every meeting for the past 2 months

- how to explain in so many creative ideas just to get the message thru
from drawing diagrams to using my voice level, the degree of loudness etc. etc.
ok that was actually all negative things that i learnt =D,
now for the positive side
I learnt:
- That my LEO Members are a bunch of committed members, sometimes over-committed too. =) Thank you so much to those who massaged me, destressed me in times of trouble, those who followed me around during the final week before the project no matter how troublesome it was. Thank you guys! You know who you are =)
- How to ignore irritating people, learning to accept that they just wont listen to you no matter how hard you plead or beg
- I learnt that they aren’t the only one in the world and that others may also be capable of doing what they can do
- That some things just won’t go your way and I learnt how to twist and turn and yet reach my destination
- That some people just love to poke negative comments for the fact of bringing you down, maybe out of jealousy perhaps?

- how to deal with stress! i finally managed it =)
- To appreciate my poor little stomach when it starts howling and grumbling, I did not have a proper evening meal and no dinner at all during the event and had no supper and breakfast after that. By the time lunch came, gastric came forth and thus my stomach thought me a lesson * wonders how to survive the coming 30-hour famine camp *
- What it felt like to have gastric
- to stick up for yourself, to be stubborn *yes it does help * and stick to ideas that you already planned and thought of the consequences to it
- To appreciate God more, thanked Him so much that the weather was awesome that night. He was always there during times that I needed endurance.
* especially during meetings, …. get my drift? =D *
- to appreciate my parents more, I finally understand that it’s not through verbal that they support me, but it’s through their actions that they do
* will not elaborate any further due to sensitive issues * =P
