I sincerely apologize for not updating my blog and not returning your comments. I seriously needed time for myself to recuperate after my major event on 17 September. It was extremely exhausting to run this one man show. Exhausting in terms of physical and mental. Though I have been screaming for help with the committee members, only a few came up to me and offered help. Even so, they did a sloppy job, which needed me to do the final touch up.

Less than 24 hours prior to the event, I had not printed out the programme booklet or wrapped the presents for the VIPs, or confirming the attendance of some of the attendees. I was in a state of stress since my bus driver was waiting for me outside. Anyway, I managed to finish the booklet and confirmed the attendance and delegated the printing job to my colleague who said the most stupidest thing to me 72 hours in prior to the event. Guess what she said? She said "The previous person in my position never asked for help. So why are you asking?" I walked off after explaining to the airhead about the difference of this year's and last year's event. I don't think she even understood the difference. Does 60 guests and 200 guests make a difference for an event?

Somehow on the event day, my rising body temperature made the airhead and her colleague to work. Oh yea, I was yelling while poking the girls with the edge of my fangs. This is not something I'm very proud of but it was just funny to see how my boss reacted. The event started at 9 am, and the registration booth, the presents and the emcees update were not even completed by 8.30 am. A colleague from another department took pity on me and came to assist with the presents wrapping, while the girl who was in charged of this section was busy advertising the yau char kway or Chinese fried cruller bread from her office to the room beside mine. I shook my head looking at how this Ms Yau Tiu could be munching the same stick for over 30 mins, I decided to snatch the lion share of the bread from my door.

"Ms Yau Tiu! COME HERE. I need you here NOW! I need you to kau tim (get ready in Cantonese) the presents NOW. The presents must be ready by NOW. The presents must go into the hall NOW. .... NOW.... NOW...."

I didn't know my boss was actually standing next to me. I actually don't remember what I said to Ms Yau Tiu other than "NOW... bla bla.... NOW... bla bla NOW" but my boss's jaw dropped to the ground. He commented "Wow.. I haven't even say that myself". Actually I only recalled myself repeating 'NOW' the whole morning.

Luckily everything went smoothly, and certain things were covered up neatly. And thankfully, I managed to delegate jobs like ushering to the students and some of the committee members just in time of the event. Knowing the guests were well taken care of by these people, I managed to breathe in the office.

I certainly have the experience to organise an event but having team mates that are not willing to go extra mile and use common sense made my job pretty hard. I really felt like scolding one of my seniors for not using common sense when she showed her confused face throughout my briefing with her. What's so difficult to differentiate the booklet with and without folder? Booklet with folder is for VIPs and the VIP list is in the booklet. What else do I need to explain? And if the team mates are more responsible with their roles, I would be a happier person.

But overall, it was a successful event though it was chaotic at the backscene and heaps of leftovers. Oh well, thank god I whacked my boss left, right and centre about his leadership and demanded for dinner which is still pending.
