Speaking Up? TOKOK ' 05

Just got a first look at my blog template...

it sucks ... really ...
this shitz has really gotta go

Anyway, during the starting of this semester, I've been appointed as the Vice Project Director of a new project which NUSSU is launching.
It's the Speak Up Campaign, and my comm's objective will be to generate an avenue for student response. Some place for them to speak up, to voice their comments on stuffs.

Yesh, NUS ppl are sometimes waaaayyyy too quiet. But that's understandable, since the University Community is just another subset of our beloved country.
hmmm... no wonder blogs are getting popular. When you cant change reality, a fun way to make life slightly better will be to bitch about it. *without opening your mouth*

Well anyway, Jeremy has chosen a pretty crazy launch date for us, since we only got around 2 weeks before our official launch, starting from 2 weeks ago from this date. It's supposed to be launched in conjunction with another project from PRU, the Fest La Vie, a school level bazaar to be held at the Arts Central Forum. It's crazy ... not only becoz we have a darn short preparation time, but also coz it's a project which not many ppl will even bother to care about.

The project has been named TOKOK! And this is our logo.

To me *then*, it's unlikely we will be getting much response from the student body.
Yeah, many of us are sheeps, and our sole purpose in life is to obey our shepherds ... what's there to talk about anyway... kinda dumb. Zzzzz
*if you dun understand what im trying to say, then take it literally ... that should make more sense to you*

But well anyway, I must admit im rather surprised at the response we're receiving at our booths. Response is overwhelming, and we ran out of free gifts to giveaway, and even almost ran out of paper for ppl to post their colourful comments. I must say, we are a hit, and I do admit I've been proven wrong. Im happy for the success, and I'm thankful to my comm. Thank you everyone so much for taking time out your busy scheduale for managing this project. Ya all rockx!
In particular, Im bowled over by Gavin's enthusiasm in the project.
Hey Gav, if you're reading this,

YOU'RE DA MAN!!!
*and to the girls, he's a single hunk also*

And check this out, we even got a silly mascot to back us up! Thanks to the assistance of the FLV comm, who chose the chicken suit in favour to our cock-related campaign. Dun ask me who's in da chicken suit, just know it aint me.

AND here's an award winning pix of a chicken queueing up for chicken rice.

And these are the topics that we've came up with for debating within the campus.
Day 1) Girls cant read maps! Only Guys can!
Day 2) Bizad Gals are more hip than Arts Gals
Day 3) Can ya find TRUE LOVE in NUS?
Day 4) Money, Brains or Looks for your other half?
Day 5) Is NUS boring?

cool eh? think about them

And this project is probably what inspiried me to revive my blog, i need an avenue to speakup.
This is my kind of campaign, born fer it.

*baaaaaaaaaaaa*
