Now that A's is kinda over, I shall reflect on my 2 years here in SA, so here goes...
It's been an amazing 2 years really, been through so many experiences, both good and bad. The good were amazing, the bad were horrible and painful.
Whatever it is, I don't really have much regrets. The bad experiences taught me to be stronger, and helped me towards the path to understanding who I really am, and what I'm capable of overcoming. Well, I'm still alive and fine.
I've definitely matured from being a naive little girl to someone who is more pessimistic but down-to-earth. I've understood that in reality, things aren't as pretty as what they should be, sadly. But this is what makes life more challenging and exciting. Nothing goes by the rules, and life is what you make of it.
I've made many friends, very different friends. Friends I never thought I'd have, and I'm very thankful for that. They were the best part of the 2 years (apart from my eyecandies, okay kidding, but no, srsly).
Nobody can imagine going to school without friends. I mean c'mon, facing teachers like Tim foo and Annie alone, it would've been impossible.
To my 2 best buddies sak and bee, thanks for being there for me, when I'm in my best of moods and my worst periods. I love you two.
To the girls in A2, you girls have been so fun to be with, doing girly stuff and what not.
To the guys in A2, you horny sick ppl never fail to put a smile on my face, regardless of whether it was out of disgust or not.
To SAF ppl, you guys have been so fun to be with. The time we spent tgt (esp June camp) are unforgettable.
And yes, teachers. The next best part. I love all the geog teachers, each for their own uniqueness that makes Rthem all so lovable. Ms seow for her insaneness, Mr G for being so charasmatic, Mr lian for being so fatherly, and Mr hu for being so cute (haha my ec). There's also Mr peh. We can actually hold a pretty long conversation! He's so weirdly entertaining.
Over the span of 2 years with Tim foo, (I can't believe I'm saying this) he's actually not that bad.
These are the teachers that has made the biggest impact in my 2 years.
Okay wait this is supposed to be a reflection, not a dedication post...
Yeah, I've made and broken many friendships this past 2 years. Made some good choices and many mistakes that I will laugh at when I'm 40 (that's my way of viewing them optimistically). But these choices were worth it and i'd do them all over again because everything would've turned out differently, but I like the way things turned out, regardless of whether it was positive or not (i think).
In year 1, the best experience ever was in UK for the geog trip. Those 12 days were just amazing, whether it was tom frost, just drinking hot chocolate in the cold weather, stripping down to tanktops, or laughing at Mr G mocking Mr lian.
Then in year 2, planning for June camp and the camp itself made me feel pretty accomplished. Sure, it wasn't the perfect or best camp, but everyone put in their best and that's what mattered.
It'd be the biggest lie to say I'm still the same person after this 2 years because I've changed so drastically I couldn't really remember who I was just 2 years ago. Now, to me, 2 years is a really long time 'cause so many things can happen in such a short span of time. It's unbelievable. Guess jc just exposes you to the fast-paced society of today.
I don't exactly like the way I am right now (and no I don't mean physically, even though i really have put on a lot of weight and it sucks). The way I think now is so different, many unacceptable things are now pretty normal to me. Even I don't know what I'm saying sometimes. I've done things I'm not proud of, but hey, everybody's like that too right. As long as we know its wrong, we're not that bad... right?
My friend once said you have to make the mistake to know its a mistake. But is it really always true? Are humans all so rash and only finally admitting its a mistake after they've committed it? That kinda seems to be the case for me, for the past few months anyway. I really have to start to have more self control and do the right thing. Don't wanna be as reckless in uni.
Anyway, I've never studied so hard in my life until for A's. I've never felt this competitive to the extent that I'm constantly comparing myself to others and wanting to beat them. I dont like it, but that's the truth. Dumbass educational system, really.
It's kinda weird but I suddenly feel so void, and lost now that A's are over. I really should be rejoicing, and I did right after the paper, but now I feel so empty. Shingz.
Okay its almost 3 and I'm really tired.
Goodnight.

Really random storyline, but still cute. (:

The new music video for Chelsea by The Summer Set is so weird and random.
I don't like it. Oh well. 

New single from Fall Out Boy! Alphadog! Which was already on their Citizens For Our Betterment Mixtape actually. YAY I really liked it. :D
Alpha dog and oh- oh- omegalomaniac!

"As a special treat for their fan club, Fall Out Boy have announced a very special package for Overcast Kids who pre-order the upcoming FOB greatest hits albumBelievers Never Die. Fans who pre-order through Overcastkids.com can buy a special edition that includes a lock of bassist Pete Wentz's hair. There are three different packages available through the web site"

What the shit? I'm a big fan, but c'mon, this is way freaky. D:

OMG I wanna get the most expensive bundle. But its $100. DAMN DAMN DAMN.

I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart,
And I was positive that unless I got myself together,
I would watch me fall apart.
