what do you feel on the last official day of school?
nothing.
nothing?
maybe even a sense of relief.
perhaps it's just because there's still prelims, revision lectures, and A's, and it's not like we'll not be going back to school ever again. but i guess when i leave jc, i won't miss the school, but just the people. i don't think i'll ever feel that melancholy i felt 2 years ago, ever again.
ct session today was cool. we are so fortunate to have mrs koh as our civics tutor :) and we continued with the odd-year 78 class' tradition of taking our special same-place-same-people-same-pose photos! hope all the waiting for the sun paid off!
rushed to nanyang after school to help ms ong with the guides' outdoor cooking session. it's been quite a long time since i last went back to help with their trainings, so i felt a little guilty when i saw how the sec 1s and 2s did their turfing and firelighting. but im glad the guides are having fun. i was so glad to see anthea taking charge and making sure that the outdoor cooking training was carried out safely and smoothly. im so proud of this junior of mine. :) and thanks, kingfisher and swallow patrols, for being the first to offer me their fried noodles! haha, couldn't finish it but they forced me to anyway.
saw this teachers' day board with envelopes for students to write notes to teachers and spotted mrs chua and ms yeo's envelopes side by side! so i decided to drop them messages on my "unique" dsta foolscap paper! hahaha. i really wonder if they still remember me. they are the 2 nanyang teachers i respect the most, and i wont ever forget mrs chua's lesson on integrity, nor ms yeo's warning calls for us to step out of our twilight zones - which reminds me that i have to work really hard and not disappoint them!
on my way back i met huiying! it felt so nice to meet someone you havent seen in a long time. somehow the words just kept coming. after all the exams i must make it a point to meet up with her and xiangying!
chuang sing is tomorrow! yay!

8 august
heh, i just came back from swimming! got dragged down by my parents to swim again. alright, so swimming is good for my back.. anyway i was having fun swimming in the freezing cold waters when i accidentally bumped into this girl. then she and her friend started shrieking like i was some pervert. and their reaction was so dramatic and exaggerated somemore! totally -.-!
hrmm shall update about 8 august, my mother's birthday! went to clarke quay and had dinner at this indian restaurant which my erjie recommended. shan't really comment on the food. hahaha, but the strawberry birthday cake that my erjie's bf bought was super yummy! :) was supposed to watch the fireworks, but didn't in the end because my cousins were coming over to our house. so wasted, the last time i've seen fireworks live was when i was in primary 5! oh well, there's always next year i guess..
when we reached home my mum realized she left something behind in the car. so my dad passed her the keys and said "哎呀, 自己去拿啦!" my mum just obediently took the keys and went ahead, without realizing that my dad was already walking behind her. "我陪你去.." haha, it was just something very trivial, but somehow i was very touched by the sweetness of it all.
that day i asked my mother whether she was happy, and her reply was "开心" :) yay!
prelims are nearing! and a levels too! i still have no idea what i'm going to study next time. i know my parents want me to study medicine, but i know i don't have what it takes to be a good doctor. why is it that some people can just go all the way to fulfil their dreams, while some just drift along, without even an inkling of what they really want in life? others think they know what is best for them, but end up regretting. i just hope i'll never regret. eventually, i will find my answers to all these. so whatever la, i should just stop slacking and start mugging!
You know - one loves the sunset, when one is so sad...
"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?"
But the little prince made no reply.
