Dream on...

Dream On 2006 – Dream On, Cos Dreams Don't Need Reasons to Live




To ASEAN Scholars regardless of race, language, or religion

Re : Call for Volunteers to do Street Sales of Album and to Collect Donations

We are "Dream On" - a committee running a youth-initiated CIP project, supported and sponsored by National Youth Council (NYC) ,CitiBank-YMCA Youth For Causes, Young NTUC, DXO, Power 98 radio station etc. Funds and donations collected go directly to our beneficiary - The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund. We would like to put up a request for ASEAN Scholars to help Dream On publicize our event to the students so that we are able to reach out to more youths. Below is a brief description of our project and we hope that ASEAN Scholars can lend us your support in this project.

Aims of the project
1. To raise funds for the Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund to help needy students.
2. To encourage youths to take up a positive attitude while pursuing their dreams.

The reason why we chose the name "Dream On" is because the phrase can be interpreted in 2 different ways. Often, when people say " Dream On", they mean to tell you to give up. However, "Dream On" in our context has a total opposite meaning. We tell the youths to literally " Dream On" - to continue pursuing their dreams with a positive mindset, to take action and bring their dreams to live. Through the inspiring lyrics and youthful tunes that have been specially composed, we hope to convey the message - " dream on, cos dreams don't need reasons to live"

Our project comprises several aspects. The main idea is to compile an original music album that will be sold to raise funds for our chosen VWO. The CD features - Debbie Tjong (VJC), Eternal Loop (AJC), Charles (TJC), Krashed Lines, Black Forest, LGF, Tiet, Dancing Nancies, Mocca and many more! 1500 copies of the album will be printed and sold to the public.

Our concert - Dream On@DXO will be organized on the 22nd of July (from 6 to 10 pm) at DXO to showcase the songs. Our Guest-of-Honour launching our event on that day would be Dr Vivian Balakrishnan Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports Second Minister for Information, Communication and the Arts and Chairman of National Youth Council.

We have also invited guest performers such as Plain Sunset, Lucid Vapour(VJC), Fatskunks, Glitched, Dancing Nancies and more to join us at the concert. Tickets are sold at $15 each - and it comes with a free Dream On Album. Alternatively, grab a Dream On Album at $15 and get a Dream On@DXO ticket for free! Proceeds from album/ticket sales are donated to The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund. Listen out for us on Power 98 radio station from the 11th to 22nd of July and also look out for our Dream On Postcards at all ZoCard racks islandwide. Visit us at http://www.youngntuc.org.sg/dreamon/ for more information. For enquiries, drop us an email at dream.on2006@gmail.com

July : 1st,2nd,8th,9th,15th and 16th

Shifts : 11am - 230pm and 230pm to 6pm

CIP Opportunity

Hey guys.. you saw the video for the Dream On CIP thingy right? Anyone interested? I've already signed up for the 9th July one..

There are like 1,2,8,9,15,16 July.. 1st shift 11-2.30pm and then 2.30-6.00pm.. More details here.

Just to let you know.. One of the flow-thru seniors, Carmen is part of the organising committee.. So we can go lend her some support! Yup..

And also check out Shine's Site for a whole month of CIP opportunities.. The link to sign up is here.. But those interested in checking the dates for CIP can check with me coz i have a whole list of the dates and events.. went for the briefing the other day.. Take note though.. the deadline for signing up for any of the events is 1st July..

Superman

Hey.. the link to the superman screening at science center is here. Showtimes for this weekend (sat) are 11am, 5pm and 8pm.. Unfortunately however.. it seems that they charge more on weekends.. $15 loh.. so quite ex.. unless we wanna go on a weekday, but quite rush.. 5pm and 8 pm.. so how?

But i still think $15 is rather worth it to catch the show on the big screen.. 2 hours 40 mins..
so that's $15 for 160 mins.. which would be about $1 for every 10 mins.. or 10 cents a minute.. or 1 cent for a block of 6 seconds.. haha.. you get the picture.. so how? suggestions suggestions..
