1) Richard Giam


Hello, there.


That's some pretty good track record over there. I'm not gonna copy and paste one whole chunk of things he said about himself, but basically he is someone who is very much of high status. There are a number of things that he has done that makes him extremely competent, such as being awarded a Pearson Education Gold Medal as the top Master of Mass Communication student. He is now heading a team of five fundraising campaign managers and overseeing all annual and premium giving programmes within NTU.

Sounds chim, but simply put, a Mass Communications student can also earn big bucks. There are a number of things that people told me about "why I shouldn't be a comms student" before I entered WKWSCI myself. And one of them is the fact that I won't be able to earn a lot.

But just looking at this man himself, Mr Richard Giam, I think the myth has been busted. You can definitely make it and carve a really successful career for yourself! But of coz, after hard work and determination, as everything else in LIFE.


Moving on...

I really like the Bhutan photos that my school has produced. I didn't mention about "Go-Far" in my other post but yes, that is another travel opportunity. As a journalist, I think you'd want to be placed in a situation where you are made to report news in places out of your comfort zone. Challenging, but rewarding. Last year was Bhutan. If I'm not wrong, this year's will be Japan. To report on the devastating earthquake that happened almost 2 years ago.

A team of students from my school went to North Korea as well some time ago. Pretty cool eh? Don't know what programme or project was it for but, yeah this will be one of the things you get to do as a journalist here in WKWSCI.


There you go. Oh, and one more person I forgot to mention.

And that's me.

One day she'll be an alumni and because of her, everyone wants to go to WKWSCI. I can't explain this inexplicable feeling but it's this pull that she has? This magnetic pull to draw people? Yeah. She's pretty amazing.

Hahahahaha. That was retarded but yes, one day I myself will be an alumni, and I hope I'll be a somebody some day. And people know my name and go, "Hey! Aren't you the one from Wee Kim Wee?"

And I'd proudly say yes! I was. Do come over, it's the most amazing school ever.

I honestly feel that, throughout my life, this has been the best and only school life that has presented me with an ARRAY of opportunities that I'd never thought I'd ever get to experience. Firstly, as an Orientation Group Leader for one of the camps. Then, the opportunity to go overseas on exchange for 6 months. Something I've always dreamt of doing and am really living the life right now in New Zealand. And thirdly, I was given the chance to go for OCIP, a voluntary programme to help people in less developed countries last year and am now on my way to lead a group to Laos come December 2013.

It has been an amazing life journey so far, and I honestly feel that if I were in another school, I wouldn't have been presented this much opportunities. Because of that, I was extremely willing to write all these blog posts for you guys.

Go for the Open House to learn more if you know you're interested and know that this will be the place where you can see your life spelt out.

Otherwise, you can be like me. Just apply for WKWSCI without knowing much of anything hahaha. Ignorant but hey, I just KNEW that WKW was the place for me. And lucky for me, I was right.

But of course, don't be like me and my lazy ass. Go find out what's in-store for you over at the Open House. Get yourself informed and prepared!


SO here are the details. This will be my final blog post for the Open House coz tomorrow's the event already. GO FOR IT.



And I'll see you at WKWSCI next semester!
