To avoid a succession crisis

Dear reader,

This week I decided to spend more time in my CCA, the St John Ambulance Brigade. As the Secondary Four members prepare to hand over their committee positions, I have decided to play a more active role in the group.

After all, I know that the leadership lies on a thread. I only have three Secondary 3 cadets, the CCA has to rely on the Secondary 2 cadets to fill up the vacant committee positions.

Furthermore, I need to ensure that the current committee choose their words wisely during the handover. Being relatively frank people, what they say sometimes might hurt feelings regardless of their content or intent. The art of speaking tactfully is something that I feel should have been taught to students, but often is not. This is particularly true when our students fail to recognise and appreciate verbal cues like personification, sarcasm and metaphor.

That is all I want to write for now.
