It's all thanks to you. :)

This is my 4th year being the English Society president in school. And I must be honest, I didn't do a great job in previous years, even though I've had 3 years of experience, in the same society and the same school. And even though I did so poorly, no trips no speakers just games, my members still voted me as their president.  And since this will be my last year as president, being Form 5, I have decided to really dedicate myself to the society even though I have other clubs to attend to. 

Our first achievement this year was our Valentines Day project. This was the first event the society ha ever held throughout my president years. And now our second and probably will be our biggest achievement was to invite local author Jeremy Chin to come to school to share his experiences on becoming a writer. Jeremy Chin wrote the fiction, FUEL. 

And to summarize the whole thing, it was great. There were more people who showed up than I expected, there were more people who bought his book than I expected, and everyone thought Jeremy's talk was inspiring, and his blog post on "Passion" was reeeeeeaally deep. I don't think any of us can write like that ( yet ;) )

At the end of the programme, Pn. Lee presented Jeremy with a small token of appreciation from the English Society. Ferrero Rocher chocolate and a A4 size bookmark that said "Thank You" on one side 
( drawn by great artist Yasmin Shah :D ) and the other size with all the attendees signatures. 





Why do I call this event the society's biggest achievement? 

It was when Jeremy said "I have never felt so important in my life before". He had a crowd of people follow him all the way to the Bilik Tayangan, the signs and an enthusiastic bunch of secondary school kids as his audience.  
Although Jeremy could have been joking about feeling so important, I took it to heart. I'm so proud of my members. :D

I dedicate this post to Pn. Suryani.


So we recently did a rumusan on social media. Pn. Suryani asked who has a blog, and yes I do.
She asked for my blog URL but I didn't give it to her, because there's not much here.
But here you go teacher, to show you why I haven't been blogging.

Now I just gotta wait till she finds this URL. xD
