Sunday, May 13, 2012 at 10:23 PM Mother Tongue O levels
2 Weeks Left. 2 days after the mid-years ended, I have actually already received all my Exams results. Fast aye? I gotta say, looking at the results, boy oh boy, I'm no where near my goal. It seems as though, when comparing the goal i set with my results, my goal is so far fetched. It is as if, I'm setting unrealistic goals. Even my friend who scored way better did not have such high expectations. Well, I didn't do too bad, I mean looking at the amount of preparations made for the exams, I wouldn't think that I'd end up a high flyer. Though, I wish I had the ability to. But that's the price right? Hard work, perseverance, Time management, resilience and all the other "Ten-year series" answers Are just what you have got to offer before you can get the results. But I had none of those. I was just lazy, distracted, not driven. When I said I didn't too bad, I also meant that I didn't do well either. My grades were a little below the average of what I used to score. Disappointed, but I'm not surprised either. Did a little reflection about what I really want from here on. And I'll treat this is as wake up call. A reminder. I'll make my come back! Reason why I got my results that early is because I have Mother tongue intensive for the next two weeks. That means from 8 to 5, its Chinese ALL THE WAYY. Preparation plan from the school for the Mother Tongue OLevels scheduled on 28 may. I'm actually looking forward to it, it's a great opportunity to show I've got. Not to prove to anyone that a hybrid/Mixed/Zebra can do well in Chinese, but to prove to myself that I can do it again. I got A2 for Chinese for the EOY in sec 2 after intense preparation. After that wake up call, I'm now more driven and sure about what I really want. I am going to work hard for this. 2 weeks. Sounds like what all OLevel candidates would say yeah? My plan to remove the distractions is simply to keep my phone at home. It worked and I'm sticking to that. So on all weekdays, bye to the ring-a-ding-ding! All the best to all taking the OLevel mother Tongue! Spent the marking day with her. Hajarwinkey!~ Really enjoyed every moment. Going out with her felt so natural and easy. I know it sounds cheesy, BUT ITS TRUE! Little you would know that she actually puts in a lot of effort in erasing any awkwardness. But you wouldn't realise it, I didn't anyway, because the conversations were so natural! That also means she talks a lot though, but in a sweet and funny way. HAHA Can't wait for another day out with her again! Have a lot of plans in June, One of them would be the kayaking course. Actually, I learned how to kayak in OBS last year but I need that 1 star certificate to rent a kayak. So once I got that, kayaking would be in my "101 ways to relax" list! HAHA Planning to get together the Nerf team in June for team-bonding and discussion for Nerf Camp, Thinking of going camping with study group mates. OBS gathering, Aesthetic Night.. Just can't wait! But for now, gotta focus on Mother Tongue OLevel! LEGGO~ ------------------------------------------------------- "I'll Wait For You." Labels: What if it never went away.

Wednesday, May 9, 2012 at 2:47 AM Graduation
Graduation. Talked about this so many times and its not just me. Friends gossip about it, Teachers talk about it. Even that cat that sneaks into the school every morning, whispers to me about it. LOL Don't be dumb, Cats do talk. I've always thought about how the year is ending and as time flies, I'm getting closer to "Graduation". Or if you'd like to think, "getting older." Yes Likka Lao Uncle. It's funny though, because even after much thought, I still haven't come to a conclusion. Half of me wants to graduate and step down from all my commitments, But the other half just wants the opposite. It didn't occur to me at that time how i would've felt upon stepping down. Because Time, at that moment, wasn't ticking like a time bomb, and surely I couldn't feel the intensity of graduating. I've already stepped down from BBall and to be honest, I felt neutral about it. Maybe because I was not so attached to the CCA. But recently, there was the Councillor Investiture. My final Councillor investiture. When we were all waiting in outside the hall for the march in, I was looking at all the new sec 1's coming in. Reminiscing my time during my first investiture. HAHA Wondering did I look that cute or shit :p At the same time, I thought about that one question the teacher asked. " What have you learnt during your time as a Councillor. " And as we marched in, I swear, out of all 4 investitures, The senior year investiture is DA BEST. Partly, because I feel my sec 4 batch is well connected and bonded and we'd root for each other any time. Apart from the cheering, the investiture was solemn as it should be, The certificate for outgoing councillors. The handing down of leadership roles to the several Exco's. The Speech by both incoming and outgoing presidents. The Councillor Pledge. But then, it all went down to the march out. What was interesting about last year's investiture was that it was very classy and "Romantic" with all the candles around. But this year, we decided to give a new twist to the theme. We wanted to do sth other batches of Councillors wouldn't dare to do, something bold. We had all the the sec 4s gather at the back of the stage, while the rest of the Councillors march out of the hall. When it came to our turn, " Eye of the Tiger" was played. We call it SSM. Solemn Surprise March. We'd march half way into the hall with the audience thinking that it was just another normal march out and then.... HAHA So We kinda "danced" in the middle of nowhere and... we walked out LIKKA BOSS! WOOO I enjoyed the whole ceremony and especially SSM. Really gonna miss SC. Can't wait to see what's gonna happen next year! So the Mid-years just ended but O-level MT is in 2 weeks!! Will definitely put in a lot of effort for MT. And for that to happen I gotta get rid off all the distractions. ALL OF THEM. Maybe gonna leave my phone in the closet at home during the weekdays without taking it out at any point of time. Just like how i did for the past few days during the exams. No phone, no distraction! Challenge Accepted? HAHA Can't wait for the June Holidays. Aesthetic Night, OBS gathering, etc. Many things I'm planning to do with BRYAN WOOOHOOO~ , MEGAN and the rest :D But for now, the fight's with O-Level MT! So LEGGO! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see all those tweets, I won't deny that I die a little more inside. Realising you've never said those words to me before. He must've been an amazing guy, being able to win your heart. I guess that's Life right? That's the price I've got to pay for my mistakes. If things went back to the way it was before, I'll learn nothing. Have got to bounce back, and come back a better guy, a better friend!yeah? :) Takecare & Stay Happy. Labels: I wish. |
