Its roughly a month into the holidays, time to evaluate how I've been spending it!
Okay, so these are some of the things i've done...
4L Class BBQ
Taking up swimming
Starting to gym
2C outings
Serious WoW raiding (finally)
Mmmm.
Well, to start it off, 4L bbq was a blast. (pictures on facebook) But, its a bit late to talk about it now. =p but everyone enjoyed themselves, and there was a little too much food =x
but i'm pretty proud of myself for organising it, nevertheless. =D
Swimming & Gymming.
Well, swimming have been pretty much solitary, considering its all lessons. I'm taking my silver soon and moving up (hopefully). Its something i want for myself. I've always enjoyed being in the water anyways.
As for gymming, I've just been doing it with friends, seldom alone. Its quite 'productive' in a way i guess. But i have yet to see any results... Hope by the end of the holidays... hehe. hahaha. =x yup.
2C Outings
More or less the same. Movie, Lan. Sigh. I need to organise something new quick. But everyone is going away! Jloh to japan, Jia wei to taiwan. and hong chuan MIA 24/7! Not to mention lynus going UK in January. =/
i'll do something about it.. and quick, i hope.
Ah well!
Thats the holidays so far. Productive or not? i don't really know. But i guess i'm pretty satisfied with myself. For those who are asking if i'm working, its a NO. Don't ask why. =) Yup!! so.. we'll see what comes ahead. I'm going Malaysia tomorrow! Shopping time! lol. till the next time.. cyas!
I'll always be waiting for you.

Graduation
I just had my Leavers' Ceremony & 4L class bbq. Also, helping out, probably for one of the last times in school as a student, in the school's open house. For me, this week has marked the end of my Marist journey.
I'll cut to the chase. Leavers' Ceremony was about taking photos. Enjoying yourself with the teachers. Being there in school. Taking in the atmosphere. For that One. Last. Time.
It was somehow... nice to be back in school. The school that groomed me to be the person i am today. Good? Bad? I'm sure its the former.
I went out for steamboat with 2C afterward. It was, i am sure, our last dinner together in our school uniforms. It was great fun. Nothing mattered anymore. We didn't have to talk about our 'O' Levels. We just enjoyed ourselves. Enjoyed each others' company. The feeling of it was just great.
In addition to that, the very next day was my graduating class' BBQ. It was a blast! We were really as a class then. It didn't feel divided. well, most of it anyways. haha. I think everyone enjoyed themselves too. Ms Koh, Ms Lee and Mr Lim came as well. I can't emphasize enough how fantastic it was. The pictures are on facebook. they'll say everything for me. We were all smiles. I thought i was never going to miss this class. I was wrong. I love it.
And today, was the open house. I helped out at Ms Koh's request. I didn't feel as much 'involved'. The new ICT programs were something i was totally unfamiliar with. I guess its a sign that its time to move on, and i have no idea whats in store.
Its now the curtain call. I'm graduated. I'm no longer part of the school. After a whole decade. I have mixed feelings about it. And now, the holidays ahead seem kind of empty. I dont know what to do. The previous year, i had events. camps. Outward Bound. Bintan. Confirmation. now.. its kinda just a blank piece paper waiting for me to write. Right now, I'm craving for some company. Some people on msn just really didn't help. Listening to Taylor Swift as well. Her platinum album is really good! haha. okay okay won't digress. (Listen to Forever & Always Piano Version) :P
To add on to the open house and my graduation, i watch as parents and pri 6 students explore the school. I knew, to a few lucky ones, they're gonna make it big in this school. And when i mean big, i mean that they're gonna make wonderful friends. expose themselves to various aspects of life. Root themselves in the right values. Discover themselves, and excel in what they never thought they could do. With the help of the perfect teachers here.
Just like i have myself. Right here, in Maris Stella High School.

Stray
a stray kitten you found off the roadside.
you played with, gave food, and above all, gave hope for another home.
But like all people, once you're no longer entertained by that stray animal. you leave it alone. back to where it came from. Crushing its hopes that it had raised ever since you approached it.
do you think this applies in the context of our daily lives? are we victims of such actions too?
i know i am.

I'm supposed to be mugging
Everyone all seems to be mugging. They're all staying up late, noses buried in books, writing down notes.. making their own...
why aren't i doing the same. Well, i'm doing a little bit of that. but yet, not to their kind of standard.
i know i've been consistently putting in effort for this whole year. Not too much, not to little either. But enough to get by. Its the last stretch. Its my Os. Its either i break it, or i make it. I got a new target for myself. A single digit result. And i'll get what i want too ;) !
With that, i'm sure i would be able to go to a JC of my choice. Through this year, i always thought i would be going to _JC, but recently... i've been asking myself, why is it that i want to go there? Does it really suit me? Aren't there alternatives? Am i letting the people around me affect my decision?
sigh. i dont know which jc to go to anymore. maybe i'll consider poly...? why isnt there a maris stella JC. -.- fuck. i feel more comfortable in a maris stella then ever before.
Sigh.. its time to mug again. I'll head to school tmr for some consultation i guess...

Reminiscence
There was a mass held in school today. I felt weird, because contrary to the usual masses i attend. I was one of the few Catholics that were standing up/kneeling and stuff. At least Sean Pang was with me! :D
But it signaled that my school year was coming to an end. My final school year.
Mr Lim also, did his part. He gave us the class' contact list. He gave us an individualized card for each of us. He gave us the class photo in the form of a jigsaw puzzle, perfectly, in a photo frame. He also showed a slideshow. Of how we were so quick to grow. From a mere 12 years old when we entered, to the more mature 16 year olds we are now. Thank you, Mr Lim.
I have spent 10 years in Maris Stella, including this year. From primary 1 to Secondary 4. And it has been one hell of a ride. The people i met, the activities i've been through, the friends i made, the taste of cruel reality. These are but the few that I have experienced in Maris Stella. It is these, together with the school, that has shaped me, as a person, as an individual. It wasn't all smooth sailing. But that was the beauty of it. What doesn't destroy you only makes you stronger.
I will miss this school. The place where I know I can truly feel at home.
I went swimming with my Secondary 2 Classmates today, and we went for lunch-dinner, dunch. We were talking about the times in Secondary 1, Secondary 2, how we met each other, all the different experiences we shared, all in disbelief, that tomorrow is the last day of school. Time flies... Too quickly.
And everyday, i think about my past experiences myself. Reminiscence. I do regret some things, not done properly, or not done at all. But its been a fantastic four years nonetheless. Its more than fantastic. I can't describe it in words. Its just... somehow engraved into your heart. Its a bittersweet feeling.
And soon, the past four years of rehearsal, is now going to pay off. The 'O' Levels are what we're going to tackle together, as a class, of 2009. And after that, things will never be the same again.

Off Centre
I've been feeling 'left out'. I don't know why.
I've been feeling abit 'off centre' i guess. When i read that play, i feel that i can really connect with the characters sometimes. I see their rationale, and somewhat, understand how they feel.
Are you sure that it is only because the play is crafted so intelligently in that way?
Is there a possibility, that we ourselves are off centre in our own ways? We have our moments...
Remember that passage that came our for Prelim 2? That's one of them.
i think i have lost some rationality myself.
