Shit's coming....

5 more weeks to the O'levels, more or less. I am not really studying much right now. My secondary school life is pretty much coming to an end, if it has not 'died' already. From what I can see, no more NPCC training (maybe for the time being, maybe....), no more carefree days in school, no more post-exam activities (in school anyway, will elaborate on that later), no more LAN sessions without any worry about the O'levels, no more days when EC did not exist and no more major exams in the classrooom. Practically everything that is so essencial about my life in Bedok View is going or gone. My heart aches whenever I think about it.

12th November, that is THE day. My science P1, my final paper. After which, anything that resembles my secondary school life (in school anyway) would have died out, in a flash. Unlike SA1 or SA2, no more going back to school for 'classes'. Messing around with field trips, camps, LAN sessions, damn slack lessons.... It's very different from a school holiday. I am in school, my 2nd home, with all my friends and teachers, yet, no need to worry about homework or any kind of boring shit. It's makes a school day very enjoyable, and that is the only thing that allows me to wake up early in the morning without cussing or falling asleep in class.

Whatever it is, I guess I will have to face the future with sangfroid (look that up if needed) and a grin. I hope to make the best of my last days in BVSS and 4E2 2010, even if my 'life' is already gone. Things will come and go, whatever it may be. Time will tell if shit will hit the fan again, but as I said before, I will take it on with a grin, and a "fuck it" for good measure.

Peace out.

Career Seminar!!!!

Ytd was one of the most AWESOME days of my secondary school life (due to end in.......9 weeks time). We were all dressed up, well.....most of us anyway. The rest.......no comment.

0630-0715: Dressed for school, dad dropped me off. On the way to the back gate, saw Jo dressed like a nanny (:P), before heading up to the classroom. Met up with Wei Song, Nabil and the others and talked crap about our attire.

0715-0730: Went down to the Parade square, was already sweating buckets. Met my other friends more or less in Semi-formal attire and sweated more buckets.

0730-1230: Went to the hall (and finally, Air-Con!) for the 1st talk, Design studio for the 2nd, Hall for the 3rd and the Studio again for the 4th. Through the talks, I finally made up my mind, more or less aiming for a JC. Went on a cam-whore rampage as well.


1230-1330: Lunch, nothing much, took a few more photos and relaxed at the library, when some of our juniors spotted us, and laughed, .......

1330-late: Dedication ceremony, watched some videos (funny ones), listened to some speeches, penned down our wishes on pieces of paper which are pasted on some poster and even received gifts from our teachers. Now I know why I love Bedok View so much, it's the people there that counts. We cheered, we laughed, but strangely, no tears came out.... After the ceremony, I went on a cam-whoring rampage again.

late-later: Went home with a few friends, and sweated buckets (again) under the hot afternoon sun. Now I know why I love the weather in Japan. Whatever it is, it was indeed a FTW day and I will never forget it.

Nothing

Hmm....., I guess it's been a long time since my last post. To be honest I do not think anyone bothered. Right now, I have just wasted more than half of my September holidays doing nothing constructive (other than the class video, some structured lessons and so on). I better get on with my work, I will update this blog some other time, maybe even after the O'levels, I would have loads of time to do things then, with no more school and homework for a couple of months. Although there is the problem of the CI course. I might be signing up for it, but I am not sure whether it will be time spent or wasted. Besides, I am not really comfortable with working with people whom I had to shout "Yes sir/mdm!" , and curse and swear discreetly at. Whatever it is, I will worry about that later on. My O'levels are more important, more over, a 2nd prelim is most probably coming up, shit. A LIR5 of 12 before CCA isn't going to get me far.
