Every Day is worth Living For

every day is worth living for.

For the past few days, or weeks, my state of mind can be summed up and captured precisely by the title of this blog entry: every day is worth living for.

There is learning, there is hardwork. There is effort, and of course, corresponding reward.

I love the newsrooom so much. It's a far cry from the staff room of any schools, in terms of freedom, autonomy over what to do with your timeand how you would like go about doing it.

Of course one would have to fulfill a predetermined set of tasks, yet there is just enough room for flexibility to keep me happy. Given the same pieces of materials, I have the full

autonomy to decide what angle I would like to cut in, and what materials I should pay more attention over other.

Or I may just choose to position the same news along an entirely different storyline.

Besides, always working on different things in terms of content and people is simply amazing. Work is never repeatative and people contacts come through phone interview

or face to face ones. All can be inspirig as they open the doors to greater diversity in my daily interaction.

I learn to communicate with different people, poising myself on a specific level of intelligence and approachabilit to project exactly the image I deem suitable and likeable to each interviewee.

I tailor made myself for differnet occassions in front of various people.

And I enjoy it.

Then I knew communication and media is the right way to go.

I have always enjoyed emceeing and public speaking. I followed my heart and have made sure I have a choice this time, by applying to the Wee Kim Wee of Communication and Media

Studies in NTU.

Keeping my fingers crossed for the best and the worst.
