Well the past week has been very... varied.
It was like an emotional roller coaster when we all got back our results on Thursday but I became high after doing the skit. Narindar was saying about how SRJC and YJC did so incredibly well for History. She mentioned how we always thought we were above them in terms history results but now they surpassed us.
Ironic that we're now far behind.
Then everyone got all emo cos of our absolutely hideous and gross results. It was like someone came and yelled in our faces "You're going to screw your A levels AND your future! Give up!"
Somehow...
I'm not really demoralized. Maybe it's because I'm inherently proud or something. But I guess after the whole pre-CHMA saga a few years back, I've kinda learned to know which kinds of criticism to take in and which ones to totally ignore. Also learned how to take criticism properly.
You must never look criticism in the eye and be afraid of it.
After all, we're all humans and we are never sure of what is the truth and what is a lie. We are limited and in a sense crippled and confined within the boundaries of our 5 senses. "Perception is reality" - sometimes people, even people like me, only believe things that can be perceived.
If we know that we're in the wrong, then we have to have the courage to accept it and move on. I have found it hard to do that many times. But at the end of the day, the most important thing is to move on with our lives and become better human beings.
Well now it's time to stop playing and start studying. I have to go and find out what has went wrong with my essay, correct it, and try my best.
Even if I do not get the desired grades, I have to make sure that I do not ever look back on my J2 year and feel that I have not tried.
"Gotta step up the game, step up the game."
Well anyway, I really have to say that I'm very thankful for my wonderful class T4.
I think without my wonderful friends there to keep me going in school I wouldn't know what to do. They brighten my day, and they are the only positive thing about school. I love and appreciate all of you very much! :)
After all that has been said and done, I still want to live my life properly and not mug my life away.
I must establish my motto in life!
"Live everyday to its fullest and be the best person that you can! Appreciate everyone around you everyday and never think ill of your loved ones."
I truly believe in living life to it's fullest because you never know when it's going to end.
I've always wanted to do crazy things but never really so called dared to cos half the time I was afraid of what people would think of me.
But I think I've changed that this year :P
At the end of the day I think that if you maintain a positive attitude to life you will end up being a happier person. I never want to be a depressed person cos I just loathe it.
*Shania Twain's "Up!" plays.
I really like that song. I think the lyrics are so inspiring and they really help me to maintain that positive attitude.
"You just gotta learn to have a laugh"
"Up up up can only go up from here!"
Oh speaking of which, I SLIPPED AND FELL AT J8 JUST OUTSIDE COFFEE BEAN AND LANDED ON MY BUTT!
HAHAHAHA omg it was so hysterical and I couldn't stop laughing after that. It was like the post painful yet hilarious moment of the day cos I must have looked absolutely ridiculous when I fell.
At first my right foot slipped, then I tried to use my left foot to save myself, but because it was a downward slope and it was raining, I couldn't and ended up sliding simultaneously on both feet and landing on my butt! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'm just glad I didn't hit my head or something much more painful.
Anyway, I just came back from a busy day with the usual crazy people.
And omg History Night is going to be freaking hilarious.
The crazy ideas..
oh the crazy ideas....
hahahahahaha.
Moving on...
I can't waste time so give it a momentI realize, nothing's brokenNo need to worry 'bout everything I've doneLive every second like it was my last oneDon't look back at a new directionI loved you once, needed protectionYou're still a part of everything I doYou're on my heart just like a tattoo
