The problem
Hey FMT members!
Hurray that O levels is finally over! Before Thawat starts saying that this blog is dead, I'm gonna post something lenghty!
Last Friday, we had our first outing together as Fusemetal. It felt so good, it has been a long time ever since we had a meet up, waiting for people that are late, asking them to pay $2 as a fine. Before I left my house, I was choosing the clothes I should wear; then I looked at my clothes and thought, "Long time, I have been wear school uniform, house t-shirts and class shirt for the past month, finally!" While I speak about how excited am I going out with Fusemetal, does my Fusemetal counterparts feel excited too? Where else does they want to go? :)
Fusemetal itself is no doubt a fun group to be in, with many members, adventurous people and outgoing people. However, that's where the problem is.
Frankly speaking, I personally do feel that FMT lack of team spirit. I think the reason behind it is because the reluctance to participate. Not every member wants to be a part of FMT. Thawat and I have heard thousands of excuse for not participating in the activities we planned and the people that plans eventually felt jaded. Hence, the lack of enthusiasm in the group. I do not want to name any members in particular per se because I think it wouldn't solve the problem. As it is, to find a fault is easy; to do better may be difficult.
I understand that due to the large number of members we have, its really hard to coordinate and match up with the schedule different people has but I vividly remembered something someone had taught me - for a relationship to last, it requires time-commitment. It requires effort from both sides; without reciprocation, the relationship is not going to last. Be it just coming home for dinner together, a chill out time with friends, a movie together, just for that few hours, it all requires time and effort because it is extremely important.
How can one expect the group to succeed when there isn't effort? This would be worse when all the Fusemetal member bade farewell to SLSS and continue their journey towards ITE, polytechnics, and JCs. So who's going to keep FMT alive and going? Does FMT means nothing to you? Does it not worth your time and effort?
Yes, and for some people did make an effort to participate in activities, kudos to you! For people that had put in effort and time in FMT and had not seen results, don't give up! FMT is depending on you to push on.
Unhappy things aside, I think most of us are happy because O levels is finally over and we all have worked hard. Over this year, I can see most of us are really worried about O levels as the results determines our future. Don't worry, its over and there is nothing much we can go now. So why not lets let our hair down and enjoy ourselves?!
I look forward to more activities, Thawat! :)
