Creativity –
For creativity this year, I will once again help out for any backstage for galas and musicals. I very much enjoyed my time arranging the logistical details behind the scene and its fufilling to see any such event run smoothly. While I am not helping out with the OSC COMUN club, I have been asked by Lyceum Nugegoda to come help out develop their MUN club’s IPC (international press corps) delegates and their writing skills. This would mean I have to come up with lesson plans on a weekly basis until roughly January.
Service – Hope for Kids
As service leader this year I want to create a lasting legacy by expanding upon the activities we have done in the past few years such as the cricket match, food and bedlinen rations and of course interacting with the kids. But this year in paticular I want there to be a specific emphasis towards awareness such as highlighting days like Cancer Awareness month (October) and World Cancer day (February). By partnering with specific organizations we can give accurate facts and stratergies about prevention and detection to the OSC community. Also I have started talking to organizers from the Indira Cancer Trust, to see if we can volunteer for a whole day in their pediatric palliative care (Suwa Arana). This means we are breaking past our relationship with the Maharagama CCC House and being able to collaborate with bigger groups such as the Roshan Mahanama Cancer Trust and the Indira Cancer Trust. As a personal goal, I would like to donate my hair towards creating a cancer wig.
Activity –
For activity this year, I am starting up dance again slowly. Mainly for school events such as Unity in Diversity day, Independence day and so on. For me this will be reacquinting myself with dance as a medium and slowly trying to find back the rhythym I once had. Since this is a reintroduction, I want to participate in group dance, making it a much more collaborative experience for me, which will make it more engaging as well. I hope to sustain this throughout the year and participate in at least 2 performances.
