Financial Literacy Talk in Schools


You can't imagine how I spent my whole of yesterday. I woke up early in the morning to prepare myself for the financial talk. I had put in lots of effort in liaising with the school as well as NIE to have the session. And given that NIE ppl would be coming down to oversee the session, I couldn't afford mess up anything. We have 5 members in our project group. And guess wat? 2 had mid-term tests on that day and another kanna HFMD. So our group literally left with only 2 man-power; we were required to handle 60 kids during the talk + conduct interviews with students, teachers and NIE ppl + Video-take the whole session. The day was not over for me yet. I had to rush down for my tuition lesson and only managed to got home at 9 plus. Then, I had to rush my MNO tut assign which is to be handled up this morning. Seriously, I dun even have time for lunch & dinner tat day.

However, I must say I enjoyed the session a lot. They are really adorable kids! One added me on facebook, one said that I look like pri sch student with genius brain and tats y I got into NUS, one said that I confirm have a boyfriend... wahaha.. The more funny thing is what they wrote on their goal setting worksheets, "Go Netherland (x6) = $36,000", "Buy SHINEE album", "Always buy the cheapest thing", "Use my pen till the last drop of ink"... =))

Today has been a tiring day for me too... perhaps I didn't really get enough sleep. Yet, my HR project group is scheduled to interview one of our prof HT in the afternoon. The expected 30 minutes interview turned out to be more than 1 hr. However, I feel that the session with prof HT rather insightful and inspiring as he generously shared with us his personal experiences in the working industries. Compared to those profs who just teach for the sake of salary, I believe students can really learnt more from those who are really motivated to nurture the young. =)
