EIGHTERS' YEARBOOK

SPECIAL PROJECTS DIRECTOR
Kendrick Seah
ometimes, you just need to have faith.
“STaking a leap of faith is better than taking
a leap of doubt.”
Leadership to me was not a foreign playing
field. However, during the weeks prior to the
26th JCRC Rally, it was a heart fueled with uncertainties
and doubt on whether I would be
able to meet the expectations as not only a
Special Projects Director, but also as a representative
of the Hall 8. In a way, this was a test
on leadership on a completely new environment,
something that requires adaptation.
Fast forward to the planning process of 8 to 8
Supper Hop which began during the December
Winter break, it was hands down the biggest
2-month long nightmare of an event to
plan. Despite the many adversities faced along
the way, I am extremely thankful for all my
Subcommers for being so understanding with
regards to why we had to make such significant
amendments to our original visions of this
year’s 8 to 8 Supper Hop, and for being extremely
proactive and on the ball throughout
the entire event & planning process.
Needless to say, there are some groups and individuals
that I would like to specifically thank
for their unwavering support thus far in this
JCRC journey. Without them, I would’ve stumbled
countless times or given up along the way.
My SPD predecessor, Haena – The best and
most caring predecessor, providing really insightful
and timely advice whilst keeping a
watchful eye on both myself and my fellow
Special Projects Director, Wan Jun. Your passion
and dedication towards Special Projects
even after completing your term really speaks
volumes, which really inspires me to carry this
pride and passion on towards the next batch
of Special Projects Directors.
being steady for just about everything AND
also personally keeping a watch for me, it will
be really saddening to see you leave Hall after
you graduate.
The dysfunctional P-Clan members also in
26th; Freddy, Claire & Chelsea – It’s real heartening
to have you guys together with me in
this journey, sharing plenty of dumb moments
with each other while keep us sane in the
meantime. Stay crazy my buddies!
Thank you 26th, for having each other’s backs
throughout this entire journey. What may seem
as an incredibly boring meeting agenda list never
fails to be night full of laughter and retarded
moments, while also achieving our objectives.
Thank you for giving me such a fulfilling experience
on what Hall life is all about and I can’t
imagine it without each and every single one
of you. I hope that at the end of this journey,
we would’ve not only physically aged (many)
years, but also grown and glown as individuals
and leaders.
Lastly, thank you to all residents for your contributions
towards the Hall. No matter how
small it may be, a contribution is still noticeable
and it’s heartening to see everyone play
a part in keeping our Hall going. Remember,
keeping a Hall fun and alive involves each and
every resident’s participation!
It is truly an honour and pleasure to serve Hall
8 and here’s to another exciting year ahead!
The steadiest and the most passionate senior,
Yong Kai – He’s the person that created my
definition of ‘Hall Culture’. Supporting literally
almost every Hall event and IHG match whilst
