3rd year into Grassroot

"When you see things that you like, buy it. You are not spending money, but exchanging it for something you like to keep by your side." - excuse to shop more...

Weekends always pass by extremely quickly. This weekend, I went for 2 basketball workouts, lunch with ex-colleagues, celebrated my nephew's birthday and spend the balance clearing my work. In a blink of an eye, Monday is here. Sometimes, I really wonder why do we even work so hard...

I entered the Grassroot volunteer community slightly more than 2 years ago as I really want to devote a portion of my time to help those in need. My determination has not change since then, although 'helping those in need' in the Grassroot may sometimes be different from what I had originally imagined. Anyway, I have now just entered into my 2nd term (3rd year) of my volunteer in the Grassroot community, and I was suddenly told that I am appointed the Assistant Secretary position. This came as a huge surprise as I have never thought I would ever be given any key appointments, have never expressed any intention to achieve anything and does not know what does this even mean to me. Grassroot is an avenue for me to reach out to help the needy. I did not want anything more out other than this. In any case, priority for me now is to at least be clear of what I am expected of this position first, and not to screw up.
