(this is from my perspective) yesterday we had to sit through 27 speeches for elections from the junior batch and sometimes reality is just like that. most speeches were on their life stories, some really stood out, and while we don't belittle any of the stories because they are fond memories of each individual, every one seemed to be missing the point. loving the orchestra is one thing, being outstanding and being the 13/27 is a completely different thing. it requires being..out of the box and uncommon. either way i hope God gives us guidance in selecting the 36th exco, i think we were a pretty good exco who almost always delivers, one that could be fun when the need arises, one that can settle down to do work and be serious, creative and fun, and truly accomodating.
anyway on my part, i felt really helpless when it comes to time because it meant that we have to step now really soon, and that saddens me. exco gave me alot of fun memories, and the day when i tripped over erhu while manoeuvring myself towards the front and when i tried to let emotions bleed right through into my speech, convincing people, thanking people, nearly crying still replays very vividly. sometimes i heave such a heavy relief that i didn't run for council, nor cip exco, nor fac comm (not that i might actl get in, but that's just a side point..), and while me and juncheng agree that secretaries aren't high profile people,we work hard but no one really knows that you are the secretary but every other pleasant thing really makes up for it.
