The best I ever had

Saturday, August 2, 2008

Guess what day it is today? Yes, its my birthday!!! I'm finally one and a half decade old, aww, I wish I could remain young forever, but of course put aside me wanting to grow up quickly to escape my current boring and endearing life. I just want to grow out from school life quickly for the obvious reasons. Ok whats been happening lately, Kindred Spirits last Friday was not as I had expected. There were too many bands!!! Teenage angst was practically taking to the stage. Forming a rock band has become such an easy thing to do I guess....some were okay...but the others merely contributed to noise pollution. The last band was made up of current and ex-SJI teachers. I thought it would be the most professional band or something but it turned out to be on the contrary. I guess it was Daniel Chua's lifelong dream to become a singer or form a band since he was young. I distinctively remember him telling us that he was from RJC when he was our P.E teacher last year. An ex-RJ boy becoming a P.E teacher is quite hard to comprehen you know. I guess (only guess) he must have flunged his studies after that, due to his ambition of becoming a singer, which he failed terribly. If Simon cowell was present he would say, "There's so many words I can direct from my vocabulary to describe how awful that was, you will never, ever have a career in singing. " But now he finally got his chance of performing on a stage. Congrats! However, Daisy Chia, Rahima and Adeline Tan performed some old-time favourite ' Dancing Queen' They were fantastic. GO El-Divas!!!

Next, yesterday's training, It was the most tiring training as an NCO I ever had. I had to collect the walkathon cards. With nearly a hundred cards to account for, a few thousand dollars to take responsibility for, it sure isnt easy feat. Of the many cards I have to worry about, I only received 8 cards yesterday. Very disappointing. But the good thing is that most of them surpassed the minimum amount, great effort! I hope at least a part of the donation were not solely from their parents though.... I was so flustered and kept shouting at people when they came to disturb. Notes and coins flying everywhere, amounts and signatures to account for, I really dont know how I'm going to handle so many more cards to come. My assistant - Dicky was of little help. Some even gave shillings despite constant reminder not to. 75 cents, 25 cents are so hard to tabulate. One person even had a total of $61.75! and other weird amounts.

Lastly, Singfest! I really really wish I could go for it!!!! Arghhhhhh. I guess I dont want to talk about it any more. My common tests are coming up the week after national day. I'm so stressed. i have hardly started studying and I still dont understand or remember a lot of things. Put aside how much the rest are studying like Ashraff whom is so enthusiastic, he even skipped school yesterday so he could stay home to study. You know we usually take the same bus home so we would wait for each other, but on Thursday he was rushing home to study, he just left like that without telling me even though I had nothing on. The other time, he promised to wait for me as I had chinese oral but in the end, came up with some excuse to quickly go home and study. All he does is study and when hes not, he will call me to disturb me (or prove that he isnt studying). I dont know why he keeps on trying to give other people the impression that he doesnt study when he himself knows he does. And worse still, he would say that I studied more or something even after getting better results than me. Very simple logic, lets just conclude, Ashraff is smarter than me. The end.
