2008 UCSD CSA Leadership Retreat Spokenword

As we make our transition with board members, we brought back our OGs Soap and Serey to assist us in activities beneficial for the new board. Organized by our very own Becky Tran and 06-07 and 07-08 CSA President Phann Sourm, the day was filled with interactive activities that tested our communication and working in groups skills.

As the incoming 08-09 President, I was so proud and honored to be surrounded by such wonderful people that throughout the day, I was writing pieces to my first ever spoken word, dedicated to CSA.

Let's first give thanks to these two fine people
B. Tran, P. Sourm for helping us climb that steeple
And then in the silence we chewed aloud,
Our thoughts of he, thoughts of she, what's become WE.
Reflections of the deepest mind
Contemplations one of a kind.
So grateful are we
To have and to hold such unity.
"Picture this, picture that,"
Mama Rey Rey says, "Communication is a fact."
"Or let me know some more about you,
Thinking, feeling, but don't let that role define you."
"Action's key, not your role," OG Soap says,
"Learn to work and continue to grow."
And now we end the retreat today,
But don't forget we're still a famil-ay.
From the South to the Bay,
Let them know who we are, yell "CSA!!!"

Cheeze...now that I watch it again, I feel so embarrassed, something about watching oneself. Aiya.
