"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. " ~ Barack Obama ~

This guy, to me, is a true leader, charming, charismatic, convincing, he has the 3 C's other leaders don't have and yes, if you want me to use a phrase to express my political stand, no hesistation, its "Barack Obama "

Well, back to the quote, we human generally are reluctant to change. To change is like dragging you out from your comfort zone and place you in a dark room, leaving you to explore and find your own comfort zone again. The same thing happened to me throughout my life.....

When I started as SRC Social Concerns rep, things didn't exactly goes well for me... The first buddy system I organized kinda sucked, I went into batches asking for volunteers for Santa Jerome's Home but call for help turned into deaf ears, I tried to make name tags for SRC members but the quality was bad and most of the tags broke (though I still keep mine properly)

The change of lifestyle didn't suit me as well...I struggled to adapt with a busier life, struggled to balance between study and work, it was a stressful period for me, I even accidentally yelled at my friends coz of lack of sleep and fatigue...thats how bad it gets.

But the most important thing is I hang on and didn't give up... The belief that one day I will adapt is always there, and looking at the situation now, the one day is getting closer and closer, which is a good news!! The aim, the goal, is always to make life better for IMU students, and for that the hardwork shall go on.... I have learned that when you set your mind on the goal, don't stray away from it, you get more motivation... And the support I got, it gave me a lot of self-belief, which is vital for me to get past this transition period and move on.. (so thanks, and yes, you know who you are and why I thank you)

So here are few things I manage to complete in my first 2 months of service:

Leadership Camp in Genting

I assisted our counsellor Miss Nicole in organising a very meaningful camp and learned a lot from it, and hopefully, since its co-organised by IMU Amigoo Club, this can be a stepping stone for the resurgence of the club (the club is abolished half a year ago due to non-activities) and I will do whatever I can to help it come back to the fray again.

Santa Jerome's Home Tutorial System

With the lack of support I initially received, I turned to my batchmates of P1/07 and of course my beloved p1/08 juniors for help and we managed to keep the tutor system alive.. I believe a leader should lead by example and if possible, I will follow the team to the home every Saturday and monitor the progress...I am really glad the new health sciences and Bpharm batches has 40 people volunteered as tutor, I shall make good use of those help :)

Umbrella Project

I am a frequent victim of getting wet and sick in rain and I believe IMU students need umbrellas, currently I placed 13 umbrellas from lost and found in lower car park for needy students and hopefully I will be able to ask for permission to place in at main entrance soon enough for convenience of the students

Notice Board

Thanks to all my friends I have my own notice board in atrium and hopefully it will provide sufficient information about social events and most importantly its entertaining as well!!

Extension numbers

I have requested hepdesk to place lecturer's extension numbers in I drive so that students can have access to them easily, hopefully its there

Social Clubs

Am still trying to establish a good relationship with all social clubs in IMU and understand what kind of help they need, hopefully as time goes by, they will stand out just as much as sports and cultural clubs

There are still quite a number of stuff in my manifesto which I haven't really done...But promises are promises and they need to be fulfilled, so the only thing I can say is I will try my best and there will be more to come.....

IMU Friendship Day

We have IMU cup, the colaboration of all sports, we have Merdeka Day celebration, a colaboration by all Cultural and Religious Clubs, so hopefully we will have a day where all social clubs get to work with each other... ( of course I will need support from all the clubs)

Interbatch Speed Dating

Its a really interesting activity proposed to be done on third week of September, right after IMU cup...I really hope it will work, we will wait and see

Right, thats about it, I hope I don't bore you with this lengthy reports... Always belief in yourself, nothing is unachievable, its all up to how much you want it... And trust me, when human want something REALLY bad, there are unstoppable...
