Hi, everyone. The Chinese Society & Huangcheng elections + xiao huang cheng just ended on a high note today. Congrats to all new Chinese society zhiwei and Huangcheng chouwei members, especially to my dearest friends, Wee Lic (cw ticketing), Hui Ying (cw secretary), Pei Ying (cw cuichang), Kian Yang (zw Vice-President cum cw Vice-Zongjian), Kah Ming (cw sheying leader) and Tania (zw public relations cum Gefang Vice-President). Special congrats to Hui Ying, whom i supported the most. See? Have confidence and you made it! Haha.
Many people has asked me this question: Why aren't you running for sheying leader?
Well, here is my reply. I had badly wanted to stay in huangcheng and serve as a sheying leader, but this was impossible because of my other CCA, Chinese Orchestra. Hence, the decision was to be made to choose between huangcheng and CO, but yet the 2 were mutually exclusive. As what zhengyou said, if i stay in huangcheng, i will have to quit CO sooner or later. I knew the obvious choice had to be CO, cos i did not want to waste the past 4 years of effort in CO. After the sec schs' SYF which passed recently, I realised that I still loved CO dearly, at a time when I thought I had lost all my interest in CO. I did not expect myself to feel so much dispair when the high school CO did not clinch gold with honours. No matter what, CO is my first love, and I should not ditch her for a second love, esp when I still love her deeply. With this, I made my choice to leave huangcheng.
But till today, I has not gotten over this decision. The situation was made worse when I learnt that Rui An is not running for sheying leader, which means only Kah Ming is running. This means that as long as i decide to run, I will be auto-walkover. This was indeed an attractive offer, yet there were dire consequences. At times, I wanted to shout out: can i run? But my conscious mind held me back. It was quite heart-wrenching to see an opportunity gone just like that. However, on the bus home. I finally sorted out my thoughts. As a member of huangcheng, I am not one who can contribute a lot. I had little expertise in photography to offer. In short, i won't make much difference to huangcheng, but I know that I can make a difference to CO if I try. Not that CO needs me, but I feel that I can contribute more to CO rather than huangcheng. And hence, i relinquished.
But in a bid to keep my final connection with Chinese Soc, I auditioned for Huayun, and managed to scrape through successfully. I hope that by doing so, I can still proudly say that, I am still a member of Chinese Soc, even if I leave huangcheng. However, I wish to clarify that this is just one of my reasons for joining huayun. Im definitely interested in huayun. Its not fair to huayun to say that it is merely a substitute for huangcheng. This is definitely not the case. Whatever the future holds for me, I really don't know. But I hope that when I look back at today in the future, I will not regret my decision.
Thank you, huangcheng. I love u.
