BlueSky Enterprise Day, gathering aft few mnths XD
Very tiring day. BlueSky Enterprise Day. Good thing 1: Only had 2 Maths lessons, then had recess and IHC lesson. THEN 11AM (11.10am, to be exact)...SLACK!
Good thing 2: I had an invaluable experience of talking to people from the industry, especially people who are from 'entrepreneurial' companies. Bad thing: registration was quite a disaster at the start. 2 things we did to 'respond to the chaos' - one is to stone there, stunned. And the other? Give fake info to try and scam our way through. Until we know what was going on, of course. XD (yes, I know this is darn wrong, but better than saying nothing, right?)
After everything settled down, it was pretty much slack from then on. Oh the dry-fit T-shirt given to us is super uncomfortable! >.<>
I bought a I-do-not-know-what-it-is soft toy. Looks like a monkey. You make your judgement and tell me what it is ba. Confirm it's wearing pyjamas, which makes it so darn 'cool'! XD I got it at $2 during 1 of the exhibitions, by Si Ling Primary School, who were selling soft toys. The pooh bear didn't look like 1, so I rather buy some soft toy which do not look like anything. Hahax...well, it's for charity, so it's OK. :D
Yea but all ended at around 3pm. Registration-wise, that is. Wei Xiang and I then went 2 audi to watch some so-called finalists' presentation that apparently brought them into the finals. I must firstly say given the presentation by them, I don't think it is that hard a competition to be in lor. >.<
The primary school kids are so comical. XD High-pitched voice and stuff. They have the Dare-to-do-anything attitude. RGS didn't present well (and therefore won 3rd prize). In fact, the best presenter to me goes to a primary school student. Can't remember the school, but they were like wearing overly-large yellow blazer, coupled with short shorts...yea, you get the point~
He had no script, just his powerpoint and himself. Maintained eye contact throughout and was even daring enough to step up and point at the screen to present. Self-confidence is what makes a good presenter, and I tell you, this guy, albeit still young (VERY YOUNG), has the confidence to take him to great heights. And I mean GREAT, in caps! Till now, I still don't understand how Si Ling Primary got 1st prize and they have to settle with 1st runner-up! Maybe because Si Ling brought like 1 whole class there, so uhh...PEER PRESSURE, which ironically can be 'spread' to the judges?!
Recognise this guy, right? (pictured below) Hossan Leong, the comedian. He came to be like a cameo, I guess. He only did like 10 minutes then end liaox. But I must say, 10 minutes is all he needs. XD
Yea then there was a performance by some S'pore hip-hop group called Styles of Beyond. Pretty cool ba...I know I'll never be able to do such things. Shall just watch people do what they are good at, and I do what I'm good at, or at least MORE INTERESTED TO DO. (I can't seem to put the video! Darn the blogspot -.-)
