confessions of a wil student...
oh my... dzul! what have you got yourself into?! youre doomed!!the sentence above was probably played in my mind throughout the first WIL lesson i had in school. really! hahaha... now, it looks kinda daunting after i got a whiff of how WIL is going be like...
i know bout WIL through some of my seniors. and after hearing from one of them on how WIL is like, how it shape their character, how satisfied they are doing it and how memorable it was to them, i just cant help saying to myself, man, ive gotta opt for this module!! i never knew it wont be that easy doin this module afterall! darn, just when i thought i could just shake my legs during class. hehe.. just kidding!
so what was my motivating factor in choosing this module? when i was given this question in class, i kinda ponder on it for quite some time. but i believed i never put across properly what my thoughts were. so here it is. basically its just 2 factors: community and challenge.
after coming back from the sabah trip, im like sooo into community service man!! furthermore, what im doin in WIL is in a way of me contributin back to the community that had been kinda kind to me. hehe.. anyway, we are helping these RT guys get back into society, and this will be much greatly appreciated, especially by the guys themselves. but like all the community service people do, the intangible benefits to us, are endless. i always heard these words during the sabah trip itself and also mrs joyce tang said them a couple of times: what you gained from them is much more than what you have gave them. and this sentence is soooo true ah!! cuz what i had experienced during the sabah trip itself, its priceless, enriching and one i would remember for the rest of my life. i learnt alot of stuff from the trip itself, from people-to-people interaction to adapting to your environment. lessons you wont find in the classrooms. and im sure im going to learn alot from WIL also.
another reason for me taking this module is also to challenge myself, how far i could bring myself into achieving whatever goals i set beforehand. cuz its been quite some time since i was really independent independent, if you know what i mean. haha... i just wanna challenge myself how far i could go without being spoon-fed, how to work under reaaallll pressure in getting things done and on seein how i could achieve my targets with alot of uncertainities surrounding it. cuz i know if i managed to overcome these challenges, the end reward is the greatest satisfaction you can ever feel and you will feel proud of your work till you wanna wear a shirt saying ive overcome the unknown! you get what i meant rite? hahaha...
hmmm.. so dzul, your life in this semester wont be that easy after all...
i know.. but im game!! and im sure the rest of the team feels the same way too. so lets together strive on and achieve our goals, ya, guys?
oh gosh... pressure... pressure....... hehe *winks*
