It has been one crazy year filled with laughter and the occasional downs.
I met many wonderful people in what I would say an unpredicted move to remain in Innova. Joanne, Abigail, Jingwei, Gladys, Bernice, Wanqing, Jocelyn, Jiayi, Damien, Yu`an, Nasri, Zeda, Timonthy, Daniel, Desmond, generally the people in 31A and 41A(1st 3 months) & the OCIP peeps, CRAPPY TEDDY and TPF peeps. Padro, Jingwei, Abigail, YeowSheng, the OGLS Orientation 07! Lots and lots of people.
1st 3 months at Innova is worth mentioning too. Together with Yanling, we decided to brave the distance and go to Innova, located all the way in the north. Us easterners had a first time in Causeway Point, Vista Point and what nots. It was really fun. Our class was fun & everything was easy peasy.
I have tolerated crazyassdementia-type teachers(Gopal), really fierce but effective teachers (Tan), very annoying crap teachers(Siva) and... basically, that.
I studied my guts out. Believe or not, I can't imagine next year.
I went to Vietnam and experienced what I normally would not have. I have raved so much about this and I still could. It just gave me a chance to see who and what other people and myself really are. In the short span of time days, people(ahem, JW) found true love, found out who was *$#&^$^, did construction work, interacted with kids, shopped like there was not tomorrow, ate and laughed and woke up early. This is not just it. It is something I would do again if given the chance.
PW. The many discussions, meetings, the ever-so-there conflicts and work management issues. The countless rehearsals, the actual deal with 7 examiners. The silly skit and the funny music clip. The anticipation(with dread?) of the results.
I had drifted (unintentionally) apart and away from my secondary school pals.
Eventually, it's all alright. (: Effort! & I'm sure I'm no longer the depressed kid. Right? (:
I have regretted and since then stopped regretting my decision to stay in IJ.
I have served a year as CG representive, rather conditionally with a lot of strain & stress. Hope you guys could see where I stand.
I gained a great many( okay, a couple) of kilograms. Flab is fab!
I wanted and still want true love ( Okay, cheese-o-factor at its maximum)
A lot of time was spent on OCIP which I sometimes dreaded. The weird thing was when I was there, I immediately did not dread the discussions and organising and the works. Even minutes taking. Which is very weird. And which reminds me I haven't typed out alot of it yet. And my hard disk is still not repaired/saved. And shit! Okay, I digressed.
I really really had fun with the badminton people. We went out every weekend and possibly did every stupid thing possible at the sky garden and eating our guts out and laughing at MacDonalds which happens to be our favourite place because of the abundant seats. It was haha-hehe all the way. Erm, except death threats. Can't do that.
OCS was an highlight! Never really thought much about NS and everything esle. Nathaniel. LOL. Okay, somehow.
I believe I was so excited the Council somehow had no choice but to choose me. That sounded cocky. I was just kidding. Being selected as an OGL makes me feel... very suprised because I was not very serious about being one. Nevertheless, I enjoyed and still am enjoying myself. To a large extent, if only some people could like come. At least the compulsory and important ones.
Random musings.
Alvin Loh, for being 168 bus company. Lending me his graphic calculator which is still with me. For giving me advice, be in Maths or where I should be going.
Michelle, for being locker buddies with me. It was fun to recieve notes.
Jingwei, Abigail, YeowSheng and Padro, (yet again) for making Vietnam such an unforgettable trip.
Liling, Liting, Michelle, Yanling, Agnes, Jiayee and Fengling, for being there and listening and laughing along with me, never judging me (at least not openly :x) Much love.
Cherie, always making me smile with her random international messages.
Joanne, for always being there for me in times of need, encouraging me on. You don't know how much your notes and your words meant to me in that period of stress and anxiety.
This was supposed to be a post with many happy pictures. However, as Photobucket has choosen to abandon me on such an important occasion. We shall leave the pictures to later.
Resolutions
I'm excited for Orientation. Really hyped up somehow.
P/s: Abigail, It doesn't matter if you're in 31A or 41B. We can still talk and laugh our heads off. I thought of the fantastic time we had on the van on the way back to Sapa on that Sunday and that made me smile. Love you babe (& your use of postscripts) Heheh!
