Here We Go Again – Starting My Final OSC Football Season😱

If you’ve been following my CAS journey for a while now, you’d know about my love for football, and the learning curves that come with it (for better or worse). I’m in DP2 now, my senior year, which is pretty exciting, but also really scary (what do you mean I’m going to have to live…

Empowering Women, Empowering Communities🩷

Woah… it has been a while since I’ve written about Justice & Equality (J&E), my service group. Brace yourselves, I’ve got a lot to cover! Quick Instagram Updates As service leader, I took it upon myself to manage the OSC J&E Instagram page – link here. However, it is extremely difficult to constantly be making…

A Love Letter to Shawarmas – SAISA Basketball 2024🏀

Unfortunately, this will be my first and last basketball CAS post. After SAISA football ended, I immediately moved on to basketball, which essentially was a way for me to get over and finally move on after the learning experience SAISA football had been (see my CAS entry on it here!). Everybody who has a remote…

Beyond the Conference – COMUN Community Service Trip❤️‍🩹

On April 7th, 2024, Avi, COMUN’s Head of Community Service, Vicky Martins, Head of Media and I headed off to Puttalam, a district in Sri Lanka in order to carry out Avi and I’s COMUN Community Service Project. Just to sum up, this year’s COMUN Project, organized by Avi and I’s was an inter school…

Sarees & Speeches – Final COMUN Conference 2024🗣️

Day #1 – Narnia March 1st – 3rd, the day had finally arrived; COMUN’s 30th session. The first day, March 1st, was a Friday. So, unfortunately (excitingly) I got to miss school in order to attend the opening ceremony and do MUN related work throughout the day. We were advised to wear sarees, a national…

A Tough Pill to Swallow – SAISA Football 2024🫠

If I’m being honest, the pill is still not swallowed. SAISA Football this year was really, really emotionally tough on me. Here we go, an experience I’ll never forget, for the better or worse. Football is one of my favorite sports, if not my favorite. My dad, a passionate AS Roma supporter (he definitely needs…

Walk, Walk, Walk – WWW 2024🥾

It has officially been my last Week Without Walls (WWW). Before I get into it, I’d just like to give an appreciation to all the WWW experiences I’ve had, from grade 6 up to now. I still remember my 1st WWW in 6th grade, where we went to Kandy. I remember meeting the Vedda people…

COMUN-ity Service📦

Okay so I realized that I have made no COMUN posts – the creative aspect of my CAS blog. So here it is. MUN, which stands for Model United Nations, is a miniature version of UN debates, the UNGA and many more aspects that revolve around the UN. I have the honor of being part…

Big Losses😔

What a humbling experience this was. The day after our game vs CIS, we played our game vs Renown football academy. We played against their 18+ women’s team, which consisted of some military players as well. We got absolutely destroyed and demolished. The score was 8:0. In other words, we went from winning 8:0, to…

Big Wins🤩

So I’m not going to lie, DP, along with COMUN and SAISA training and just life in general have been a bit stressful lately. Thus, I am super late on my CAS blog entries. Like I just recently uploaded my entry on the DP science trip, which was in December. It is February now. Whatever,…
