I haven't posted here since I don't knoe when. Since wanshi said I can talk a lil bout Hello! Campaign, I shall post a lil about it.
So yesterday, we volunteered for the Hello! campaign along Orchard road, supposedly to say Hello! to the strangers on the street. First, to traumatise them and next to make them think that you're crazy. Just Kidding. Make Singapore a friendlier place to live in. Usually, we won't start to think of how to treat strangers while you're walking instead your mind will be filled with what you'll be doing next, where you're heading to. Can you just imagine the speed Singaporeans tend to walk at. No time to slow down. Seriously, that don't make us look friendly, not to say to say Hello! Its just a too crazy idea.
As expected, Singaporean won't respond very well to the Hello! you say to them. Like Wan Shi said, its an event thats a lil dissapointing. First of all, we were treated like people who are preying on everyone and ask them for money like what you do during flag day. Usually, from some distance when they spot you, they just pull out their handphone and act like they're on the phone or something to prevent you from 'attacking' them. Can you imagine that when the try to act like they're on the phone, their phone starts to ring?! Its a joke but its sad. The second group of people, being the majority, they will speed off pointing to their watch or simply replying "no time". There ain't time to spare, just 2to3 minutes our of 24hours a day? Seems like many Singaporeans are engaging in some multi-million dollars business. 24hours is not enough but you have the time to be shopping in Orchard. WOAHS! Not forgetting the just too many unfriendly faces on the streets that you dare not even approach them.
Hello! Campaign, long way to go. You say Hello! today, you'll forget about it the next. I really thought many of those who stop to write their names for us won't really say Hello! We passed by many people who actually had the sticker on them but when we said Hello!, they were still shocked by us and stoned there.
But there were nice people too, but many weren't Singaporeans, such as the foreigners on the Hippos (tour bus around S'pore). The really BIG group of Hello~ers waved to them and their response was GREAT. Of course there were people on the streets who responded enthusiastically. Many aunties and uncles though. It was instead those in their 20s and 30s who were less willing to respond. But well, it was still a nice event afterall, at least the people who took part in the campaign says HELLO!, such as after the event, this group of boys screamed Hello when wan shi and myself walked past them. I realise this post is really LONG.
Who cares, how often do I post here?! I read the post about Winy's dream. Have been too tired recently and haven't been dreaming, or maybe I just forgot about it. But there was this wierd dream a few weeks ago that I have actually shared with wanshi. In my dream it was Randy! omg. I can't remember what happened but it was sometihng really wierd. We all know that he is in NYJC but in my dream he was in AJ uniform. wierd!
I think I need to start working harder too. I'm like so tired everyday. Study, Bowling and especially with A div round the corner. I have no energy almost everyday when i reach home. Gotta STUDY!!!!
Names: [[Su Peng]] [[Xin Yi]] [[Wan Shi]] [[Winy]]
