curtains drawn

'my name is george p and thank you all for coming' finally on the dot 1145pm. any extra mins would equal another $300 surcharge for midnight charges.

all over. a tide of disappointment seep into me. the events co, the MC, coordination with OCC, and our own preparation all resulted in yest dismay performance. i couldnt help it but felt unjust for some of my comm members, the amount of dedication and work done was lopsided, some put in more, the others less and felt rightly so. however its only thru such conditions that made me see the true colors of pple.

for those who questioned how the ticket value is broken down. heres it, do your own math.

ticket price: $50
banquet dinner: $45
events: 2000
printing: 1000
bus: 900
flowers: 150
gifs: 250
doorgift: 200
misc: 200
total: 4700
4700 divided by 360pple = 13
so 13 + 45 = 58. so 8 x 360 = (2880) yes, even when collecting at $50, we are making a loss.

in short, i am thankful for those kind words and encouragemnet from alumni, fyf, blk snrs, freshies. this is not the dnd i was hoping to produce, but trust me, my comm did own best. maybe we just didnt do enough still. i would pick up the pieces and move on. this is a tough life lesson and i do finally appreciate hw the previous chairpersons felt..

the show could be better, i apologise to those who held high hopes for me & my comm. the most important lesson i learn is actually people dynamics and EQ over the 1.5sems preparing for this event. those are intangible traits, cant be taught.

face the reality. when one person indicate out your flaw, it maybe just a comment. when 2 person mention the same thing, it maybe a coincidence. when 10 people mentioned the same thing, it is a fact. time for self reflection.


i guess its time for me to pass the baton. thank u 6th-flers for making my life easier.

sense of ownership is missing
