i cannot believe that i have already sat for three papers,and am now left with two next week. like,how did i do it??
this whole examination period is feeling like an out-of-body experience for me,and it is as surreal as it can get. i can remember sitting in the exam hall,scribbling furiously on the answer sheet (or typing furiously, for that matter, for 221) but somehow,it just doesn't feel like me.
haha okay i don't think i'm making sense to you,huh.
but yes! exams are more than halfway through,and i'm happy!
❤it's funny i chanced upon blogs belonging to a few secondary-school mates whom would be perceived as ah-lians during the school days, you know - long dyed hair, sharp orange combs, very short skirts, very high socks (that's before the trend of ankle-length socks set in), boyfriends, smoking, truancy, oh but all english-speaking because "even st. hilda's ah-lians speak english" as i overheard one fine day in tampines mall's toilet.
so yes,anyway,it was interesting to see how they turned out - one is now in NIE, another studying at SIM i assume, while the rest probably working. it's just interesting because people change,and it's intriguing how secondary schools (or even junior colleges and polys,for that matter) place so much emphasis on the cool or "in" crowd,the teenage rebellious years of trying to break as many rules as possible and all that. i wonder, for awhile, how they felt and what they thought of the teenage years.
❤i guess teenagers have it the hardest. so maybe i can't generalise,but i would say those teenage years were up till now one of my most trying periods,where i had endless clashes with my parents,feeling like nobody understands me,having unrequited crushes,conscious of appearances and all that. and i would think that as tough as they were,the adolescent period sets a platform for the rest of your life, it can either make or break a person.
and at the risk of sounding cliche, i'm glad for that rough period of adolescence nonetheless,'cos it made me who i am today and it made me stronger. haha,yah i know,damn cliche,but true!
thank You Jesus for bringing me through thus far. without Him, i am nothing.
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
