First day of the last term of the first year of our last tenure as uniform-wearing students.(: School's actually pretty fun when you get down to thinking about it. It's about the people around you, and making the best out of the loads of free time you get before lessons, after lessons and especially during lessons. Haha. But really la, school life would be an awful drag if not for friends. Morning message yesterday (as in Sunday) was about friends. And it reminded me once again about how blessed I am to have the friends I have.

Hols were pretty unproductive but, aiya who cares. I had fun and that's what matters. Celebrated Julia's birthday with all my favourite girls.(: Spent many nights studying inefficiently at the dining table with either/both of my bros. Oh yeah and last night we went to watch my big bro's musical! It's tradition for Year 4 law students to put up some production each year. It was super duper funny and entertaining and yet meaningful. And my korkor was DANCING. He played this evil back-stabbing lawyer who had 2 solo lines and lotsa dance steps. My 2nd bro and I were so so so amused that when we came home we started practising the more memorable steps to show off to my big bro. And yeah we couldn't stop laughing at him BUT it's in a nice way, not a mean way.(:

Ok i don't really blog anymore nowadays cos my comp died and I just use whatever free desktop/laptop I find around the house. And anyway I think I'm supposed to be spending all my time mugging for promos. AIYA it's just promos anyway. Why is everyone getting so.. so.. so I-dunno-what over it. So kiasu and kiasee and all that typical Singaporean behaviour. You know back in RG where people used to go "Is this formative or summative?" and "Will this be posted on inet?" all the time? Well looks like some RG girls haven't kicked that habit yet, just that they've learnt to rephrase it a bit. Now it's all "Will this be important for promos? I mean it just constitutes a small part of notes right... so do we have to memorise or not?" and "Will this be in MCQ or open-ended?" etcetcetc. It's like the moment the teacher starts mentioning something about promos and paper format and all that, you can almost ALMOST see their ears perk up and eyes light up and the super-sensitive radar antenna feelers etc SHOOT out to receive all the HINTS and TIPS. Hear once still not enough, must go "can repeat?" to make sure all the HINTS and TIPS are accurately recorded and stored and backed-up in their memories.

><

Oh gosh. Ok I must stop ranting about such people cos I'll never end. And actually I never meant to start in the first place. But yeah. Education is supposed to be a joy. Why does it have to "counted" or "tested" or "confirm-stamp-chop come out in MCQ structured essay case-study" before it grabs people's attention and interest?

Ohwells ohwells owells. Forget it lah people will always be this way. For now I'll just concentrate on giving it my best shot, then maybe I'll make the world a better place after that. Oh yeah, J2s are having prelims over the next 2 weeks. All the best to all of them(: I really like Joy's just-leave-it-all-to-God attitude. I hope I can keep that same attitude when it's my turn next year too.

I wish the best of everything for you
I hope you know that honestly, i do
