Recently, there has been many comments on council made by Tsai Ming Chin which suggests that he is an absolute council hater. I have no idea why, but he just is. I guess it's not surprising, considering the fact that we are talking about the guy who holds controversial views about certain topics.
Contrastingly, instead of feeling that "Council is a waste of time" -Tsai ming chin, I feel that council work is fun, fun and more fun!
One important aspect of council is organising events. My first experience of organising events came from Sec One Orientation 2011. It was a huge success and we deserved it for all the hard work we put in. True, it was a gruelling process, but the OT members and I all managed to bond together, albeit differences in ideas and nevertheless, consortium.
From then on, I developed a keen liking for organising events. I went on to take up jobs such as the OS for March Camp, and AOS for June Camp. Also, I am now the AOS for iSpark Nite. Oh! And I forgot to say, I was a Logs team member for SOO OT 2011. As such, my major experience is in Logistics, and I would like to be a Logs I/C for SOO OT 2012.
Have I mentioned that it is a great honour to be chosen as SOO OT? Out of the 100 odd councillers in high school, only 16 are chosen. 8 sec ones, 8 sec twos. 4 from each consortium. This reflects that these councillers are the best amongst the best of the council population. That is why I have been spending alot of time in council this year. To get into SOO OT 2012 -- My passion.
Furthermore, a councillor gets to serve the school and the community. Other than the added bonus of CIP, the joy in giving has really made me happy to be a councillor.
Council has also given me experience in organising things, so I am more able to lead the class in organising events such as RHD and iSpark Nite.
What's more, there is a council retreat to malaysia every end of year! (This is of least importance though. Ahem ahem.)
Anyway, overall, council is really beneficial. So I don't see and reason *cough* for people to be against council. We helped them so much, is this their definition of yin sui si yuan? :D
