School’s In!
Ok not really, since school starts tomorrow.
But school is starting after all. I don’t really feel anything. I think it is because the holidays dragged on too long. Which effectively got rid of that I don’t want it to end feeling. Plus the fact that this holiday didn’t come along with a vacation. Which makes it not very fun. And thus, ending it is a so what for me.
Ok, maybe not. Since I got to accomplish quite a lot of things this holiday. Like meet up with friends, going out for so long would not have been possible during school. And I discovered the wonders of Yamapi. And I learnt driving and Japanese. And I earned some money. See.. not too bad after all. Oh, and I watched some drama serials. Which I would not have if there was no holidays.
Yep, not too bad after all.
I guess the sleepover was kind of fun after all. I felt relatively comfortable. It is probably the company. I wonder whether I will remember it 10 years later. Maybe I will look back and think, “wow, I did such stupid things!” Do adults do things like that? I really don’t know. But I can never imagine being an adult. I don’t think I will ever become one. I mean adults are kind of boring. And when they are not, they are classified as weird.
At least that is what I feel.
Ah! I have to wake up at 5.30 tomorrow. I haven’t done that since many many months ago. Oh so many months ago. Which otherwise reminds me that I better go get myself a map. Since I didn’t go for orientation, I haven’t quite got the school yet. I don’t even know where the canteen is. Or which buildings connect. Even for my faculty, I have absolutely no idea.
I do understand the faculty of Science a bit more though. Since I used to go there every week. Now I wish I chose science instead. I feel quite out of place with Engineering. I think it is the physics. Since I didn’t take it. Ok not really. Whatever it is, I am happy where I am.
I realise that you choose your own lab partner. They are not allocated. which kind of suck since I don’t know anybody in my department. ok, I know a total of 2 people in the faculty and both not from my department. And gor is family so he is not really counted. Which means I know only 1 person. haha. blame myself for being antisocial.
But then again, knowing my character, it is better for me not to go for orientation. I don’t function well in large groups. Especially when they play stupid orientation games. which otherwise will mean I will not only end up with no friends, I will have a whole bunch of awkward acquaintances which probably could have been friends with me if it wasn’t for orientation. Which is another way to convince myself that not going for orientation is a good thing.
Yes, I actually need to convince myself. You see, even I am not invincible. I have come to believe that people cannot function alone. I don’t know what you call it. Societal pressure? don’t know don’t know.
Oh, I am so happy that I got an A for KI. My KI used to be quite good in early J1, then somehow, it became worse and worse. And I believed that it is impossible to get A for KI. And I was really ok with it since I thought to myself, I was never good at anything that was more english than science. Which is very true by the way. I am such a science person that I suck at everything else. ok, I guess that has absolutely no connection. just a bad excuse. whatever, point is, I never expected an A. That is until I reached end of J2. But then again, I don’t think of such things when I was reaching the end of J2. It was not will I get an A. It just flew out of my head when A levels and prelims and stuff like this came. Just busy studying, wondering if the teacher will finish, wondering where ot get the notes and tutorials, wondering what to eat for lunch etc. And of course, wondering what to do when the As are over.
Anyway, I got an A for KI. Hurray for me. Yay. It is the only subject that I will not be sad if I got less than an A. The other subjects… if I didn’t get As, I will probably be quite disappointed. Do I sound arrogant? I don’t think so right. Since everybody get As at A levels. But I think it is the type of people that are around in school. I always wonder how some people can be so good. why they can succeed in everything they do. Like those president scholars and whatever. There are some people in school who are like insane. And there are others like me who is just like that. I wonder if they ever worry. I wonder if there are anything that they suck at.
I bought a deuter bagpack for school. I am a student once again. I shall enjoy my last few hours of holiday.
