my jaw dropped when m. kou came swaggering into the waiting room yesterday to take our attendence. i hadn't seen him since my sec2 days and moreoever, it has been two years since i last stepped into a classroom in the moelc block.
it was the last day of school, but half the class was in no mood to celebrate, save for LIM XIN YI who had conveniently taken the test the day before:
(during lunch) xinyi: ahhh school's over, i think i should be heading home.
everyone else: *stares daggers
haha but at any rate, i was prepared to accept my fate. i was going to sit in a room with two natives, who would have to listen to me mangle the language for half an hour. it would be fine. i was even prepared to accept the fact that daffy, who has been capable of fluent grammatically-flawless french since sec3, was going in right before me, the happy result of a last-minute shuffle of candidates.
so they had me, the mumbling babbling confused kid who really should be somewhere else, to round up the show.
fantastic.
but misery loves company. someone else was going after a very imba line-up of alan, cx, xinyu and desmond..which i guess in the perspective of things wouldn't be all that terrible if you were prepared to accept it.

as JC draws to a close, as we count down nervously to the start of the [big bad] A LEVELS, i start to wonder whether my past 2 years have been well-spent.
i have to begin with my class, because it has been an amazing journey so far, one that i could not have expected nor foreseen. to tell the truth, i had my misgivings about taking pcmf in the first place, because i heard qt a bit about how the class "would be scattered and damn unbonded".
the first time i stepped into the class, i was feeling dizzy and a little unfocused. i only saw unfamiliar faces staring back at me as i tried to make the connections between those that i recognised. this is my new class? :(( okay so there are a few non-rg ppl...
sigh. unfortunately my memory is failing and the laptop's battery is fading so i've got to stop here!

"..and then you reach a cave. give me 3 words that describes your cave. "
grace: bright, dry, cosy
zhen: wet, mossy, dark
wing: dark, jagged..
but this takes the crown-
joshua: there's a caveman.
HAHAHAHAH some psychometric test indeed. evidently 'cave' doesn't really mean cave.

I WANT TO WATCH WALL-E..and BOY A.. and every other thing.
life sucks.
esp when you spend 1 hour searching high and low for your ezlink card, when it was in your pocket all along.

i can't breathe.
they just keep raining down and i can hardly keep up.
i don't remember mugging this hard ever. it's revision! practice papers! exercises! tutorials! tys! prelim papers! ..prelim papers?! i wasn't intending to touch them till after prelims.
and it's not just the revision stuffies that we have to complete. there's the pressing issue of...selecting US universities. it's overwhelming, the number of fantastic schools. but i can't put them all on the list because it would be unrealistic. Ms Wang might say that i have a fair chance of getting into the schools i shortlisted but i really am unsure.
mum's coming back tomorrow and i really can't wait. she said she managed to find a few french magazines that i might be interested in, as well as the mini japanese mechanical pencils that i so adore. over email, she told me something hilarious:
(In the main canteen)
mum (being the social animal): hello! [blahblahblah]
German participant: you're the first asian i've ever spoken to.
?! in today's world i find that very, very surprising. either she hasn't met an asian who can speak english (hardly probable) or she hasn't been travelling much.. or her library is in a secluded part of Germany, which isn't all that impossible.

i find it kind of ironic that my faith in society was put to the test right after i watched Batman.
i met up with mum, who drove me home, so i didn't think of checking my phone. it was only when i reached home that i started freaking out because my phone was nowhere to be found.
then it hit me that i had left it in the toilet. again.
why is it that no one, no one, ever thinks of surrendering the bloody phone to the counter?
you taught me the value of integrity, but it really is a jungle out there.
so, yes. i am bloody peeved.

when i first heard about Batman Begins, i didn't really believe the hype. how good can any superhero movie get? screaming victims, special effects, smartass remarks...whatever.
but i guess things change when your superhero is no superhero but a human being, with human beliefs and emotions.
restrained, like any other by society's so-called rules. constrained by the need to be civilised, honest, upright and true.
what really makes us civilised? is it a lie that we are all living, controlled by society and the people around us? the so-called values, morals and principles, which, when stripped away, leave us tearing at each other's throats in the name of survival?
i like to think we are something more than that. but principles can't feed an empty stomach.
when the Joker says, "i have nothing to lose," i suddenly realised that the war between good and bad was never meant to be fair. so then why do we continue to be limited by our self-imposed rules? why not, as the Chinese say, fight poison with poison? sometimes it makes one feel stupid to be honest because you know the rest of the world is rarely so.
should we persist in our morals then, if they are an impediment to righting wrongs?
we were all taught that society is bound by a contract, that we all have to live by a set of values to get by, that everyone lives by this same set of values. we live on principles. yet increasingly i feel as if i live on principles. everything that we've learnt in school goes out the window when reality kicks in, because we all have motives. innately, we are selfish.
really? i've been touched enough by my friends and by strangers to know that this world does have a conscience and that beautiful people do exist. faith, truth, sincerity and love - these are things that keep me going when i feel down, that make me feel that every thing i do is worth it. without all these where would we be? ultimately it is a choice that each of us make, between the good and the evil.
yes, it does take some sort of blind faith and courage. personally i decided a long time ago that i'd rather have people let me down, than to have myself let them down. even if it comes at my expense, so be it. even if it makes me an idiot with a false sense of righteousness, so be it.
meanwhile, cy if you read this, sorry! i have become a Batman convert hahaha.
as for the phone i have no one to blame but myself -.- and i'm still learning the art of detachment. meanwhile i'll moan and groan over it until i get a new one.
