Finally i get to rest again! For the last 2 days i've have been helping out for the presentation ceremony which i was not "personally volunteered totally" for it.

On Fri, i was only going down for the conduction of a course (and btw it was an ez course to conduct) but later after it, i was asked to help prepare for the next day presentation ceremony. We worked thru things like unwarping presents (trophies lah, btw none of it was for my corps), labeling the seats for the VIPs & prize receivers (which also none was for mi or my corps) and lastly the Lucky Draw tickets. It may seems that the jobs are only a few but we only get the things done until 5 when we started it at 1 plus.

Then on Sat, still my supposedly motive was to see if things goes ok for my cadets but then... i was asked to help out for the presentation (again). This time we did the printing of the program booklet and the preparing the auditorium (btw the aircon in the auditorium wasn't switch on until 3 plus which we have been working since 1 plus). Very specially it seems that today appointments are given very fast, cos the next moment i know i was alredi the one to do PA for the ceremony. And also promotion are very fast also, which unknownly i was soon was promoted to Grade 4 Officer. Btw all mentioned appointments and promotion is only effective until 12midnite!

Lastly for my consolation, the buffet that i was having was quite good cos the chicken, which i think is coated with honey was tender and nice.

In every year's presentation ceremony it seems that some people will be happier and some feeling disappointing. (Sometimes) When i think, when people continued working in something for many years we start to forget or our initial visions getting blur. I feel that we should always remind ourselves of our initial visions, which i think are the most "pure" and the most "enthu" abt it.

When promotions are a good thing, we should also not focus on it. Cos i think working in a youth organisation where youths are the majority, recognition from ur youths are more meaningful which is quite hard for many people to realise, even for mi. So what recognitions are meaningful? That's for u to find out, and nobody else!
