Today marks the day I finally take the burdens off from my shoulders and pass it on to the new Malaysian Society Committee of 2004/05. Good luck, with it! And don't come running to us when it becomes too heavy to carry, which it surely will.

Perhaps we had expectations that were a little too high. Perhaps it was because we were just too exhausted after M-Nite to intervene too much (rightfully). Perhaps the system just doesn't work, and it's time to review a new system. It's with heavy hearts that we are passing on our successes after blood, sweat and toil and yet we're unconfident and quite admittedly scared as to how well the new batch will perform. The club is losing its confidence. There is a lot passion but there also needs to be rationality and a good amount of plain down-to-earth, common sense. There were just too many RONs voted today. And THAT is an indication of times that are shifting, of a dangerous unsure-ness in our members. An indication that many thought the candidates present were not capable enough and a slight dissapointment that popularity once again wins over silent hard work.

The best of luck to all of you. You will really need it!

And I so hope you don't end up in the state I am in - a fever that only seems to be getting worse, a horrid sorethroat, a very dry cough and 2 lab reports and an exam still to get over with!
