It's Patron's Day again!

Remembered how I was all happy and excited over my school's 2nd birthday, and yup, it's now her 3rd!
It's pretty cool to watch her grow bigger *literally - population*. That's part of the beauty of being in a up-and-coming university I guess. I mean, yes we don't have great history to boast of, most of our ECAs aren't comparable with the other 2 varsities n polytechnics cos we are only like 1000 strong (Arts and Social Science in NUS alone has 8000 the last time I heard). And as usual, we often get mistaken of being SIM. Not that SIM is any bad.. just.. identity crisis. Or our degrees get weird looks and questions, like 'is it part time?' 'is it recognised in Singapore?' DAH!

We are the 3rd uni in SG okay? Yup. We do get local degree awarded by the government. Not RMIT, not UOL. So.. quit asking. Gets on nerves.

But anyway, back to beauty, our voices are heard by the faculties. Changes made because of our suggestions, and clubs formed by students like us. People know most people. Like the good ol' secondary school times. We, are the pioneers. And that's cool.

Anyway tommorrow promises to be fun, according to all the banners and set ups and emails circulating. WOMAD styled, the night promises music, bazaar, food and all. So if you're free, just c'mon down. It's open to all, cos we are friendly people from the Singapore Management University.
