im hurt

had a conversation with somebody, and that person could not understand why im doing so much for CSC, including the regular visits to the elderly. she found it lame and a waste of time.

im really hurt.

i have joined t.h.e.s in year 1, all by myself without knowing anybody. i thought "just try out lar, no harm". then i became the programmer, and started planning events for the elderly. the activities i have planned are not perfect.. but seeing the smiles of the elderly i have really fell in love with t.h.e.s.

then in year 2 i thought i shld relax myself a bit before going exchange. but it wasnt until exchange then i began to realise i have wasted 6mnths in nus leading a life without any purpose. so i approached darren (ex-chairperson) to tell him i hope i can be in the committee for t.h.e.s again. i really want to do more for t.h.e.s

throughout the years in t.h.e.s... i have seen volunteers come and go. even some of my really good friends i have made in t.h.e.s, i no longer seen them around. to be honest, im really sad to see that happening. i have always seen new volunteers coming in , full of excitement, talking to the elderly like they are their own grandparents.some even went the extra miles for the elderly. but somehow.. after a few mnths.. they left. they disappeared. only a few stayed on. i understand the busy schedule of students, i understand after entering the workforce ppl have less time. im not asking for full attendance.. but at least appear once in a while to visit the elderly. they are old, but they remember you. and i doubt you have forgotten them.

even if i cant join any csc projs anymore, i will never give up t.h.e.s. i will stay on.

okay, i think i have went a bit out of point.

but yeah, i have found my meaning in life. have you? :)
