The past 2 days, especially yesterday, were crazy
but life still has to move on .......
which is insane ..
Let me go through this chronologically
1. ECA drive
Have been preparing for this since a week ago
not a long time of preparation
but I trust we have done suffice
Really happy that shooting stars booth is just beside me
they're all my high school friends
so in a way ...
it's like high school again :)
I've successfully regained my passion towards ECA activities
right before the ECA drive
Nice to see I still had it in me to promote things
My conveyance of message in english has improved by a lot
compared to last year ...
when I first started speaking English on a daily basis other than Chinese
Some newcomers were nice and positive, some super determined as of what they want,
some were just plain mean ..
but then again, people are just people :)
It's okay to have doubts.. and it's okay to whine and complain ..
so long as you get the job done ..
It has successful
Rotaract club definitely deserve that best booth award
they really put in a lot of effort
but then again .. they have a LOT of july intakes hahhahahahhahah
ours ... are dedicated seniors :) .. I love my team ..
full of people that reminds me of ... my ex prefectorial board members
super amazing
good job guys
20+ people who have confirmed to join us ...
a lot of graphic designers.. for that .. i'm thankful
2. AS resultIt's on the same day ... as ECA drive
when I was setting up the booth .
I heard some screaming going on downstairs around 2pm
(the time when the results were released )
I was determined to not check it
I wanted to wait till I get back home and then check it
so I don't have to wept all the way home..
and sulk through ECA drive
when I got home .. I told my youngest brother and mother to not talk to me for a while..
so that I could check my results asap
damn qigek
(yes.. I rushed home ASAP)
I even told myself .. that my basic goal .. is 3As 1 B (but I secretly want myself to get 4 As)
Apparently .. it was way better than i expected O.O
way better than my trials .... O.O
93- maths
88- biology
87- physics
86- chemistry
I haven't gotten these kind of results..
ever since...
I don't know when O.O
form 1?
It's really amazing... the change I've gone through in year 2014
I used to fail my maths in a way .. that I never thought it would be possible to pass .. ever... I've once gotten an average of 40 something ... .... failing all of my test ..
In form 4, I fail every single physics paper .. except the 1st and the last ... one High B of 78 and one Low passing mark of 60 (I screamed for joy that time.. that's why I remember that figure) .. PS.. I started failing at Form 2
In form 5, I cried in front of my chemistry teacher (first time I've ever cried in front of a teacher due to my poor results), when I got the worst grades in class for trials, thinking I can never get it right ..
As for biology .. I always thought its my strongest science subject .. since memorizing is all I could do to keep myself in the first class that time ..
and last year.. Biology became my worst subject.. getting 60+ close to 70 .. a low B .. I was quite frustrated.. knowing that I can actually score this.. I focused on Bio .. making my own notes for a week .. stopping only to eat, sleep, and bath .. and then finish all the pyqs for bio .. (and physics .. cuz I was scared of physics since I first started physics hahahha ) .. and that got me an 88 :)
It was shocking ... but I'm content ..
I really hope I think I have a clear shot for 4 As in A2 .. and hopefully .. more than just 1 A* .. :) ...
3. RIP uncleright after i check my results.. I went on facebook to tell my friends that i've lost my bet..
it was the first post on my news feed
So straight away I went from super excited .. to super emo
so .. my feeling was quite ... neutral ...
=|
I can't smile.. cuz I'm quite close to this uncle
I can't cry.. cuz I haven't got over my shocking results for AS
Cancer...
It's just really sad and heartbreaking..
when you see your own father say something in a broken voice..
for 2 seconds ..
when he said how my uncle hung on to his life for 2 days
determined to stay alive...
that really almost got me in tears...
if it wasn't for my results
my dad told me to tell Yee Zhe
as much as me and him really wanted to pay our uncle the last respect
my dad just said.. life has to go on .. you can't just skip your classes
and with that .. he was firm on his decisions ..
he said .. we can 点香for him this CNY
I sincerely thought he would have more than a few months to live
since he looked sick, but was better than what I expected (too much TV i guess), the last time i saw him .. 2 or 3 weeks ago ...
Liang said I should see this in a different point of view..
that he's free from the torture of terminal illness ....
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I ended yesterday ..
with a complicated mixture of emotions..
I'm not keen in telling people about my uncle's death on results day
at the same time..
I can't just tell them I wasn't that all happy yesterday..
So I just said .. it was shocking and more than enough for me :)
I guess I can say I finally understand why I can't stop crying two days ago
when I quarreled over little things with liang ....
I don't understand why I cried for 30 minutes... when it's not like the end of the world
now.. I just prefer to see that as a sign..
ever since I heard my kaijie cried over the phone ..
this was what I wanted to do ..
cry.. because you can't do anything.. you can't help out.. and you still have to go on like nothing has ever happened ....
I'll remember him :) ....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Friend in HospitalI was quite worried when Cass told me she was in the hospital
and when Ms. Liew asked me if that meant she's admitted into the hospital .. or was she just visiting someone..
I seriously had my doubts..
u know.. since.. I just lost someone quite close
(come to think of it... I regret stopping to pray for the welfare of all my family members and close friends, going through all the names at night .... which I used to do for quite some time years ago.... prolly cuz it was a long list, and I made sure everyone faces came to my brain ... before I sleep)
After not returning any messages for 2 days ..
she WA me today that she got an appendix surgery
and she can't come till next week
was quite a relief to know she's okay (in a way)
I've learnt to look at life in a different view :)
especially since what dad told me about how my uncle hung on for as long as he can be
For every breathe you get to have ..
that's something that you should appreciate and be grateful about..
no matter if one is angry or sad ... happy or excited ..
you're given a choice to express.. don't let external things monopoly your emotions...
Cass told me she's walking like an old granny right now..
and .. hahahaha .. it's funny cuz she joked about herself
I promised to help her catch up with school work
though I doubt my ability to help her with Chem and Physics
which she should need more consultation from lecturers.. but I can just try
5. Getting my Security deposit back from Publika
I sent an email yesterday
A&P dept people
were so careful
and wanted a letter of approval from TCSH ...
I somehow doubt the efficiency of... ahem ahem people ...
since.. it took them 2 months to process.. a cheque.. @@
but then Albert told me to go to Ms. Lauren ...
and I'm like.. why didn't I think of that :D
she's like superwoman ...
I think it's prolly just because I am not used to talking to principals hahahhahaha
but then again.. it's not like everyone is used to it ..
Chem quiz tomorrow .
jiayou .
