today YOUNGLEADERS xDD
alrites today the sjab, choir, volleyball members and some SLs were chosen to go for the YOUNG LEADERS talk at singapore expo. there were 41 students in total. as the name suggested, the talk is about leadership qualities in oneself. The session was from 10am all the way to 4pm. basically there were 5 famous speakers to share their life stories and success in order to motivate young leaders of singapore into becoming successful people with great leadership qualities.
'picture a small stone thrown into a large pond. the pond is transformed by the far reaching effect of the ripples. this ripple effect can be seen long after the stone is gone. if you think about it, great leaders throughout history have affected the world just like this. sometimes the ripple effect of their leadership is still visible hundreds of years later.' adapted from the national young leaders' day notebook =x
have you heard of people who make little changes to cause a big difference in the world? i mean they influence others into a positive light. they encourage others to be fearless of achieving dreams that seem impossible. they are not afraid of failure. etc. i particularly love Jack Sim's talk! entertaining and the most inspiring one of all =D eh kaira gong has got beautiful voice x))
REAL LEADERS ARE ORDINARY PEOPLE WITH EXTRAORDINARY DETERMINATIONS.
oh well now, can you ever imagine wanling a leader? *stop dat smirk =.= to be truthful, the talk was in fact very inspiring and worthwhile, but like wat mr chee said, it was too long. i could feel my head dropping 5 to 7 times. i've tried to keep awake, really really tried my best. i've even opened my eyes wideWIDE at times, but they only substained for not long. arghh the ticket was 32bucks. i think i've slept away 12bucks =xx im so really sorry!
anw, the point im trying to make is, everyone is a leader. you can make a difference to those around you, influence them into becoming better people, at least this is the least you can do as an individual, to contribute to the world ((:
love! wanling
