This is just about the start of my 4th year in SMU and i have finally attended my first CEO talk and book launch. All in a matter of 2 days. Was tellin J that we are truly the epitome of 'zo bo' (do nothing in dialect). But it's kinda fun.
Realised that CEO talks is a time when students get to rub shoulders with profs and staff get to rub shoulders with outsider big-shots and permutations continue. Students may also attempt to be noticed by profs by bravely approaching the microphone to ask the invited guest a question.
Tony Fernandaz was the speaker this time. And i must say, i was entertained. He certainly is a passionate man. And i think he has left great impressions on the people who work for AirAsia.
The book launch was also very interesting. The speeches presented by Prof Hunter and Prof Tommy Koh did quite a bit to inspire the importance of reading. I also think that one of the ways to prevent cultivating an SMU crowd only capable of being 'different' on the outside would be to encourage reading for purposes other than just academic ones.
All in all, it was a good time. And definitely more fruitful than my wake-up-at-3pm days. But i love them all! whoo hoo!
