Why Extra-Curricular Activities?

These are among the questions which I'm often asked by many.

"Why do you join many events?"
"Aishhh...event ah?"
"Why you so busy ah?"

Let me tell you the "Whys?"

1. ECA helped me improve my confidence in communication. If back then in school, I had little confidence in communication, well, thanks to ECA,  it helped drive me to where I am today.

2. ECA helped me understand life beyond university better and helped me build a network to manage expectations and reality.

3. ECA helped me to gauge how society treats you and who to trust i.e. cronyism, favoritism, bias, racism, conformance, and etc.

4. ECA helped inspire me in different ways and aspects which define my life purpose as well.

5. ECA helped me to learn and adapt to different communities.

To date: I've got a cumulative of 117 events and competition participation throughout the 5 years of undergraduate journey ranging from events, sports, competition at the university, national and international levels.
