Thanks thanks thanks.... thanks to all who have donated to the Children Cancer Foundation today, you know who you are. The rows on my donation card continues to get filled up, surpassing the $300 mark today.
I know the impact of a guy shaving off his hair is negligible compared to that coming from a gal, still, the losing of my locks have cost me quite a bit. Esp in my current work place, i need to deal with a lot of ppl everyday. And ppl are really seeing me in a different light. I guess the outlooks of a person is still v impt. Ppl tend to judge u by the way u look, dress up and groom yourself, and will hold high regards on ppl who are nicely and poshly dressed. On the other hand, they tend to relate ppl with crew cuts as kids or recruit, treat them with less respect and have less confidence in them. Thats an ugly fact in life.
But i always wanted to try something special. Shaving my hair is definitely not something new to me, but thats almost the best i can do to help contribute to the society - help raise greater awareness. Imagine myself having a normal haircut raising fund, and having a crew cut raising fund. The impacts greatly differ.
As wat Ms Angie Monksfield has echoed Ajahn Chah's teachings today : Give in your best in whatever you do. I am proud tat i give in my best in almost everything i do, be it in the Army, NUSBS, work, helping ppl, giving supports and all except for my first few yrs of NUS education.
Have a nice chat with Angelina on our way back home. She is a nice person to chat with.
