I think good friends work wonders. But somedays the insecurities really set in because somehow, my temper hasn't improved and I am not so pleasant.
I'm very grateful for the SIFE team for being able to stand me, when I get bossy and pushy. JAMIE LACKS TACT :(( I need to learn from Terence, doing the PR thing for a bit.
I've been lucky enough such that the people who had not-so-nice experiences with me during work tend to get over it soon because they are my friends and accommodate me, but I'm just so scared that there will come a day when I'll start doing this as a habit.
JAMIE LEARN SOME TACT PLEASE.
I think that's the main thing I'm trying to learn in the holidays, plus stop procrastinating haha.

Long, long overdue post. Looking at the list of things i seeked to do after my exams, i think i only managed to finish the Harry Potter Book (This was done by reading my brother's library book for a couple of chapters, then standing in Times to read a couple of chapters, and Joshua finally lending me his friend's book for the rest of the chapters)
Apart from that, my entire holiday was devoted to SIFE (Students In Free Enterprise) - it's an enterprise competition of some sort if you're wondering, whereby you create economic opportunities for people in the community. We didn't win, but I'm proud to say that I gave the presentation of my life, and worked like i never did before. Staying up till past 3, 4 am was the norm, and somedays going without sleep staying up in school to do work and catching the sunrise from sr 3.10 - all these form a large part of the memories for the past couple of months, which will probably stay with me for a long long time,like how council and the nerd club did. So instead of just blabbering on about everything, pictures speak a thousand words:)
