the first thing that i felt after this youth entrepreneurship symposium, is HOW GREAT TO WEAR T SHITS AND SHORTS AND CANVAS SHOES. honestly the darn pencil skirt is so restricting i cant walk my super big strides and the bloody shoes is so painful with all those blisters that formed and burst over the days. ):
the yes tee is pretty right! ^^
anyways. this 3 day symposium is really great i dont regret signing up for it at all! like, at first i was like uh, what the hell is this and then i see the programme list it's kinda boring, but it turns out to be okay!
i really love the speakers they're really good! entertaining, funny, engaging, emotional, motivational, inspiring. i really learnt alot from them, their optimistic outlook, the perseverance even though after failures and their attitude. it takes alot to really risk that capital for something that is pretty unknown.
okay so day 1, nothing much, ice breakers, speeches and industry visits! we went to le saint julien's pretty pretty restaurant and listened to his endeavors in being a chef/entrepreneur and afterwards we were treated to yummy sandwiches! yay haha they're super duper good yeah!
:D
and then day 2 was kinda boring cause there were only speeches and the pitch challenge, in which we stayed up late the previous night to kinda come up with something. and then we practised the speeches and our group member wee ping was totally freaking out lol. surprisingly we got into round 2 haha which we didnt care about anything cause we didnt want to get into the finals haha. and oooh that round the atmosphere was like tense i think the first group was damn serious it kinda took the fun away ): but they are really like professionals and they know a great deal about every single thing. and our group was totally like informal LOL.
then after that went joel's house for pw like at around 7 plus, so huixian meilin szenee they all left D: left with joel and jinjing ohmy jj totally has a different side of her that kinda changed my perspective of her. shall not elaborate too much hee ;D
oh then went home and idk why but i stayed up late till 1 again. and sad thing is the reporting time for the next day was pushed forward arghh.
so last day yahoo the funnest and the shiokest haha cos it's kind of short :D
had mass game which is a bit sian and then speeches which i was falling asleep, but there was sakae buffet for dinner yay!
WHICH I DIDNT EAT TILL I BURST I HATE THE QUEUES ): ): ):
and then there was networking so went around knowing people they are all friendly ^^
woohoo FB09 ROCKS and we have our nice facil yang2 who bought us candy haha! which i finished like half in one speaker's speech LOL.
nay, we didnt catch this movie i dont think it's even out yet but hey arent we cool lol!
we went pooling instead heehee which we girsl suck at it but anyway it was fun :D
i love YES (:
so overall i think it's really great and stuff and it really exposes you to the whole wide world. i mean after you talk to the people from other JCs you will find yourself so insignificant and small, especially how we, hello year 5s and 6s from river valley, are treated like secondary school students still. i feel as if there are invisible bars that bans you from your freedom when you are at school. it's just the freedom and treatment that is totally different from other schools. so what if we have a national top scorer? it just says that we are diligent students who mugs the shit off. we dont enjoy as much as other people do. we are no lifers. we are guai kias.
r said that there was a speaker who kinda scoffed and replied that river valley is not a JC. while there is some insult in it, i think it's kinda true. are we even treated like JC students in the first place?
i shall post sh's pictures tmr heehee ;D
