It's not often that I feel such an impulse to blog so I guess I really should cos I doubt future mugging sessions will be able to stimulate my blogging senses to such a large extent. I don't know how I'll feel tomorrow after farewell assembly but I guess it's never too emo around friends but only at times like now when it's all dark and gloomy at home, all alone. But who cares about tomorrow when I have today. Tomorrow shall come when it comes.
4 years.
That's the time I've been in VJC- already. Time really does fly, even when you're not having fun. Honestly, VJ wasn't exactly the most fun place to be at in this period of my life when I could have been out at better places, out having serious fun, being outstanding, and truely outperforming myself.
IP life wasn't exactly great. Time passed agonisingly slow each day. There was always a reason to not feel good enough. It truely suck to feel so stupid. And worse of all it's 2 entire years. 63115200 seconds in all to be exact. But still, time passed. I would say JC life was much more fun and exciting for me. Not so much mugging and there were people to screw up with me, unlike in the IP where failure = condemned. I could get UUUU for common test and know that there would definitely be another clown who would try to beat me perhaps like try to pon all the exams. It definitely came as a relief to me as there were finally stupid people around me. Or at least, people who could afford to act stupid cos exams are not all that live for.
07S51. I guess we left more markings on the classroom tables than any other strange special academic records that we could have achieved. We're a really strange class to start off with, not exactly the best of combinations of people but still I guess we'll all definitely end up fine. Thanks for the memories.
I could have chosen to stay in VS and enjoy topping my cohort year after year, enjoy the sadistic times tekaning my juniors. Even if I screwed up my O levels, taking the poly route really isn't that bad since I've experienced it all now. I chose a different route and here I am now. At the end of the day, there will be no regrets as this is my life, an Adventure that will not just end here and now. I'd like to take a quote from a speech from an unknown guy:
"What you should prepare for is mess. Life's a mess. You are not entitled to expect anything from it. Life is not fair. Everything does not balance out in the end. Life happens, and you have no control over it. Good and bad things happen to you day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment. Your degree is a poor armour against fate."
True enough. It seems like a well timed God-sent message for me. (perhaps hinting that i'll screw up my As) But there are wise words that come only from people who has truely experienced life as an Adventure, a never ending one.
Although mess is what I should prepare for, but now is not the time. I need to prepare to do my best and perhaps one day, just one day, be able to step out of VJ with my head held high, knowing that I've done my very best.
Tomorrow shall come when it comes- I'll blog more if tomorrow is good. (life is mess)
