"okay lor, okay lor"
Jan. 4th, 2008 09:49 pmToday was pretty fun. It started out slow, with a Students' Development presentation and a counselling talk, as usual. But things picked up soon. Mass dance was a very 自-HIGH time. Or maybe, it is just that I like moving and jumping about heh. Learnt the college anthem and a couple of the school cheers after that. Hokkien makes everything sound more rah-rah. Then CCA carnival! Hahaha I had a good time going around with Vanessa, Yin Wai, Suet Hoon, Jing Wen and Shi Hui. Signed up for so many activities: Soccer, Netball, Softball, Archery and Aikido. Archery is really tough- it is so hard to pull the bow string back and aim at the same time. So is air pistol. My hand kept quivering heh. Oh, I signed for Genshiken as well, the Japanese culture club. (!!!!!) I didn't know there was such a club in NJ, omgodzilla! Combine that with soccer and fun people, and maybe NJ is really the right place for me. It is such a pity that we are resorted next week, however. It was only today that I spoke and interacted more with the four of them CGSians and Vanessa. Ah well, at least we'll still be in the same school so it ain't that bad.
Speaking of same school, NJIP really has alot of ex-RGPS students. Xiuhui, Amanda, Joyce, Avril, Chenchel, Sophia and Shuyi are the ones I can name off the top of my head. And then, Mak Yin Wai too, who is in my OG by some stroke of rare luck. I'm so glad that Clarissa, Sonia and Shi Hong are in NJ as well. They never fail to make me laugh. Cecilia, Claire, Estelle too, for I can talk to them with ease. Ho yeah, I'm starting to like the school more and more. Hope I didn't screw up too badly for Os man. :/
Yeah, that's the thing that worries me the most: my academics. Everyone else seems to have a flawless academic record, brandishing scores of 6, 7 points and partipation, or even awards, at Olympiads, Science Competitions, etc under their belts. I really am an underachiever when compared to the rest. And now I wonder as well, why the heck did I even choose the Science stream?? I'm not exceptionally talented in either Chem or Bio. In fact, I am in need of desperate help. The Waseda Honjo trip seems like such a far dream when considering my current abilities. JC syllabus sounds so demanding and rigorous as well. I'll really have to start stepping up this year already if I want to excel and be the person that I have been dreaming to become: A determined person brimming with confidence, who can go "Oh yes, I owe all of my success to pure hard work." But, nah, that day is probably ages away. Perhaps it would never arrive. Especially seeing how I am so easily distracted from posting. This is a disjointed post and I apologize. Till another time.
