The unfair world..
Celebrating Haloween is something new for me. I grew up in a particularly asean culture, except for a year in glassgow, but even then, I didn't really get to celebrate Haloween. In KTJ, the haloween celebration is just round the corner and there has been lots of effort put into making it a succesful occasion. Members of EYES (young economist society) has been put in charge of organising the "social night".
I've been put in charge of screening some horror movies. Others will be in charge of food, music, dress-code etc.. I don't really have a liking for horror movies, but its my duty. I can't escape. However, I've also been helping out with the chocolate cake dedications.
The chocolate cakes costs 3 ringgit each and will be delivered to the recipients on haloween night. Throughout the few days that I've been collecting orders, I've made a very interesting observation. Most of the chocolate dedications were made to the more popular students. Its not a great discovery, but seeing it from another point of view, its really unfair to others.
Some students are not as good-looking and charming as the others, hence, less popular. But shouldn't everyone be given equal chance to receive the cakes irrespective of their social status? It's just plain unfair that some will get all the cakes and some won't get any.
The way I see things, there will be some people with hurt feelings on haloween night. That's why I've decided to do something about it. I"ll be giving a free chocolate cake to someone I think that won't be getting any. I do hope that it'll make a difference.
I might not be able to change the whole world, but I hope to be able to give that someone a special haloween, knowing that someone is looking out for him/her.
