weekend!

it is finally the weekend! i'm so relieved... so relieved that the sudden release of tension caused the blood vessels in my head to throb. yes, it is the stupid migraine again. but it doesn't stop me from feeling so happy, finally i can rest....

phew.

i have been thinking too much and imagining too much for the past week. and i realised that i have been really dumb and inpractical, and filled with too much optimism and complacency. at least i learn a lesson =)

when life isn't going as smoothly as i want it to be, all the more i shouldn't give up. for it is not the worst 'Downs' i have encountered. yet.

sc!

i went back to sc today!!! lots of people went back too cos there was invest today. i went for a bit of guides, watched half of invest, talked to teachers...

on the corridor outside the staffroom, shermin said "i feel like going straight and turning right to go back to class". strolling back to our class, just like in the past. we must have walked there for a thousand times already. the familiarity of the route (i m sure we can even go blindfolded) and the usual chatter on the way.

i shouldn't keep looking back. i really shouldn't.
which reminds me of 'move along, move along...'

laughter and archery

yes. it was the long-awaited day. :) we went out to celebrate shermin's birthday on sunday! it was great seeing you guys again. haha, the passers-by must have thought we haven't seen each other for a year, judging from the level of noise we made (everyone was talking at the same time). it was funny hearing what other schools did for their orientation and how their lectures were. and of course, there was sharing of school cheers. some of which were rather interesting. it was great seeing the old faces again! (have i said that before?)
lets go out again soon!

i went for archery tryouts just now. it was the first time i have even touched a bow and arrow. but it was cool! somehow, i managed to shoot a few arrows. but i think the chances of me getting in is very low because 185 people signed up for it!

adaptadapt

i am mentally exhausted. i think it is from trying to adapt to the new environment and make new friends. i didn't know it takes lots of brain juice to think of something to say to new aquaintances. the ease of conversation isn't there and you get awkward bouts of silences while you start pondering what to say next. but i m sure it will get better. i still miss the gang.

i m wondering why i m worrying abt cca. it is this thinking about why i m thinking this way that has got me thinking. there is really nothing to worry about except whether i can get in.

note to self: i must not stone/sleep during lectures.

orientation ended officially yesterday. the finale part was the coolest! they hung the letters of our orientation theme up and set fire to it! the burning letters were super cool in the dark (it was around 9 pm) they reminded me of campfire.

i have been dreading the start of school. orientation had been so fun and your og mates have been such nice people. now, everyone is in different classes and we would hardly have time to meet up in the lodge. if only my og can be together in one class, lessons would certainly be more interesting. my class seems okay, but i m still trying to put names onto faces.

today was nice though, cos i didn't have any lectures today BUT they said we still needed to be present in school. @#$%#! i could have more of my beauty sleep and the best part was no one took attendance today. but i was so guai not to sneak out of sch ;) hee hee.

orientation

guess what, i am in the BLUE house! so thats another blue shirt for my blue collection. MR rocks!
anyway, orientation was REALLY REALLY FUN. the games are not lame (like passing pocky), and i realise the school emphasised ALOT on school unity. i was too tired on wed and thurs to come online to update so here they are:

DAY ONE
had war games (mostly abt conquering territories which are actually just game stations). we had og dinner in bishan after that. so that means i got home at around 830 and was too tired to update.

DAY TWO
learn mass dance today. it was ok but the point seems to be the partnering. had station games too, which were of course, fun.
but the best part of the day was the house movie outing. they booked the entire theatre at ps to fit all the j1s in our house. hence i ended up reaching home at 900 and was too tired to update.

DAY THREE
learn mass dance again. however, the memory of the dance we learnt ytd was rather hazy.
had external activities at holland v, which was a rather unfamiliar place for us. so we were a little lost and ended up taking 105 and getting off at RTC busstop to change to 156. looking at sc was so sad. i even start remembering the times we stood at the busstop waiting for our buses.
although i m like half asleep now, i have to update all else i will forget.

I MISS SC!!!
i shall update more tmr cos i m starting to stone.

blue

i have too many blue stuff. bag, 2 pairs of shoes, wallet, watch, pencil case, toothbrush...... and i am not even a blue fanatic. i should really stop buying blue stuff...it always happened accidentally. i don't know why too.

13 more hours. i wonder if i will be able to sleep tonight.

happy new year

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
i dont have any new year resolutions though 'cause i thought resolutions will never work since, you know, 'tomorrow never comes'. haha...maybe thats only for me.

strangely, i am not dreading school that much after my ogl called, cos orientation sounds fun. i think the main reason is because eunice is in the same og as me, which means i have someone whom i know! but still, i will have to make new friends all over again and try to adapt to the new environment. it is so sad knowing that you won't be going back to familiar sc on wed :(

it was hard trying to stay awake last night until the countdown. yawns.
