Revival '06
Dear beloved...
I've revived my bloggie, yet again... Yes, its been a long while...but i guess, i just needed an outlet to verbalise my thoughts...so, there you go...
Lets see, its been 7 long months since i last blogged...feeling the itch i guess, hence, i am back here! Then again, plenty of things have happened since then, like my Yr 1 exams... my professional experience at IRAS for the second year running and of course starting year 2. The pace of life at this point has been heady to say the least....am leading a very dynamic student life at school, and have also found the time to fulfil my external pursuits like writing, amateur photography( Yes, i am participating in the Museumshop-Banyan Tree Photo Competition) and also attending functions (i.e; The Economic Society of Singapore Annual Dinner...where the who's who of the Economic & Financial World were present...yeah, SM Goh was honoured that night.)! I will be attending the Rolex Forum organised by SMU in 2 weeks time...there, i will get to hear from a panel of very accomplished individuals and perhaps asked a question or two during Q&A.
Yes, i have also written my way to getting my write-up published in a coffee table book by the National Library Board, the book launch is on 25th Oct...do grab hold of the chance to see my featured article in there...albeit a short article, but nonetheless; an achievement!...Last i heard, well, from the chief editor himself, the publications team whittled down 7000 entries to a mere 100 to be published! My mummy is going with me (She is proud of me, and i want to honour her)! And yes, Prof. Tommy Koh and Eunice Olsen will be there too...*winks*
Apart from the above-mentioned... i am involved in the Biz Club at my university...am in the committee in-charge of organising the Career Forum 2006...we are gonna invite BIG names like Microsoft, HSBC etc to come speak to our students...
Last but not the least...(hey, i am not being long winded here, yar?)...i am still a student, and trying to be a good one at that!...need to hit the books...
Things i hope to accomplish by the time the first quarter of 2007 comes around :

Things i hope to accomplish by the time the first quarter of 2007 comes around :
- To produce an essay for the MAS-Economic Society of Singapore Essay competition.
- To pick up German!...need it in the future, if i so decide to work with the United Nations; a third language is a must! My French needs some brushing up at the moment...(Gene; u know what to do, yar?)
I think for now that will do, and of course i am making the effort to save up for Summer School 2007......whoever wants to bunk with me, please book ur slot, the hall i will be staying at can accomodate one paying guest!:) Actually, there is a waiting list already...but its only tentative:) I have 3 peeps on the list for now...you guys better start saving too!
