Short updates:
Pasar Malam was a success last night. Even though there were a few hitches in the beginning, everything went rather smoothly and we finished the cleaning up relatively early. Security estimated around 15000 people showed up! woot~ Waited sooo long just to eat mediocre sa-TAY! Didn't really have the chance to try out other foods. Bumped into lots and lots of people from church, UWA, ECU, Murdoch and even high school... wow! Though, next year, I think I'll go as a guest and see how the turn out is ^_^and just enjoy the night without the stresses.
Then one of my friend came up to me and said, "Hey Sue-Anne, I'm going back to Malaysia for good.... I'll see ya around."
Wow... made me so sad... even though I'm not close with him, but made me realise all the friends I've made this year are lots of international students and most would go back once they graduate from uni - which is most of them next year! It's so sad. The people I've grown close are moving away and going to leave me by my lonesome. =(
Then I thought, wow, MCW is actually the last student/uni related project I'm going to be working on. No more uni life/student life/ lazing around... it's time to get a real job. Makes me sad to think and realise that this is sort of the end of an "era" and the beginning of a new phase in my life I guess.
I really enjoyed every bit of my last semester at uni and getting involved in voluntary work and student associations and all that, and I would encourage everyone to join if they can (especially the Canning kids when you get into first year uni), because it's a great way to meet people and make friends, and also a chance for you to contribute something and learn things and experience things. I've learnt a lot from working in MCW. The best and worst experiences all collate into one huge learning curve and has been one of the most interesting things I've ever done. I don't regret doing it... all the sweat and tears shed for it, was it worth it? Well... I'm pretty happy about it.
