Before we take a step into the near future, let us look back at the past 2 years in whatever college you went to. I've thought about this for quite some time, and finally decided to post this here!
MY TOP 5 MOST ADMIRED PEOPLE IN TJC (08-09 batch)
please scroll from bottom to upwards thanks xD
1. Quah Zai You
Well, what can I say? He's the whole package: sports, academia, entertainment, just FUN! Zai You's position is like all u can hope for; he basically has the nicest portfolio of all TJCians(i truly believe) and he never stops having fun! A great friend, a smart boy. Despite all his never-ending committments, Zai You has lived up to expectations and has never once failed us. Ever wondered how he manages to juggle studies, volleyball, Mazarin, pokemon, SportsXcel and all the other stuff? Keep wondering, we'll never figure it out.
2. Nivia Satriavi Soetrisno
Another busy girl, another heroine in the mix. Its truly amazing when you watch Nivia work. She's meticulous, organized, a built-to-perfection work machine! Much of TJ050's success is owed to her, I'd have to acknowledge that. General Secretary of the Student's Council, Mazarin, TMUN and many more, wow awesomeness, busy like hell but learn like crazy. I enjoyed working and having fun with her. Nivia, don't forget me okay! I'll bring you more Oreo I promise! (:

3. Zhang Jiayi
Jiayi tongxue! Fellow Yunnan comrade and Pri 3 level head! This person isn't someone to mess around with, 'cause she has the brains! She is effectively bilingual and someone with foresight coupled with wisdom. I like to hear her speak about salient issues and share stuff with her, she often provide me with a lot of insightful comments and valuable advices. A leader as well, watch out for her name when she breaks into the Chinese market in the future(alongside Danielle)!
4. Yvonne Pow
Formula to craft: Overly curious pills + Passionate-about-learning ritual + Loudspeaker (:
Fellow Yunnan comrade and Pri 3 level head as well, Yvonne is like one of the closest people that I got to know in TJC. She never fails to amuse us all with her loud and clear laughter and unglam moments, haha. She's a super workaholic and always eager to find out more in order to satisfy her curiosity. Yvonne is also actively involved in the Mazarin, Leo, E Club and her other first-come-first-serve seminars, which makes me wonder whether her day consists of 48 hours instead of 24. Definitely fun to be around her, and I wish her success! Stained her 2-year clean TJC record with a night in the club finale. Tsk. =X

5. Song Lili
Lili! A super cute and amusing classmate of mine, small in size but vast in knowledge and she definitely dares to dream. She's older than us despite her small frame, and her maturity makes her one of the most reliable around. Lili always helps her classmates in need and her 100% smile always brings comfort to us. I'd definitely miss her when she returns to her hometown, 'cause I'd lose my motivation and a great friend momentarily. But well, I still believe Lili's gonna return stronger and better, and she WILL find success. Cheers :D
....................and this concludes my top 5! (I hope to have more categories so I can give thanks to many more people!)
People, do give recognition to those around you and take a moment to look back at what college life has educated you about. What you've learnt, who you've met, these little things make up who you are today and what you are going to be tomorrow. Take some time to honour people who've helped or impacted you, and learn from them so as to become a better person!
I hope this post has entertained you and sparked off a series of thanksgiving days when its not Thanksgiving yet! Cheerios ^^
