The Start Of Something New


It has been 4 weeks since I last blogged.
Yet, so much has happened in this span of time and I thought I'd blog about them (:

I haven't posted since the New Year and as the school year started, I've been in a new class with new teachers and new friends. I've fostered many relationships and have met great people- people I like to believe will be in my life forever. 
I'm very lucky to have nice teachers and also friends who support me in what I do. Apart from making it a point to be confident in who I am this year, it really wouldn't be as easy as it is for me when I didn't feel this comfortable with them. 

I'm now Class Chairman of Secondary 3E1. 
It was a daunting task. I wasn't quite sure I would be able to cope with it. But so far, my job has been easy due to the cooperation from my classmates. 

Also, I went for the one and only OBS- our 4 day outdoor course.

I am so lucky to have gotten the chance to go and although it was an uphill battle every single day, a test of one's strength and capabilities, I had so much fun and made so many memories in a short time span of 4 days. My heart will always clench up when I think about it, because that's how much OBS has left it's imprint on my life. I'll recall the sound of crickets in the night and the smell of salt water. And as tiring as it is, I'll always yearn to pitch a tent with my friends again, cook with them, eat with them, face obstacles with them. 
They are my life now.

Year 2015.
Another year of possibilities and dreams.
I fulfilled my dream of dancing again. And I now go for hip hop classes every Saturday evening. It's another source of joy in my life- something I look forward to at the end of every tough week. 

Of course, there is a big change in terms of our studies now.
The stress load has definitely built up and expectations now hold a greater load on our shoulders. List of homework and assignments are longer and even school hours are extended. We are facing the reality of preparing for our O levels and no one has time to slack.

But so far,
I am grateful for the classmates and teachers that I have. I am thankful for the memories and experiences I have made. I am excited for what's to come (:







SEE YA!
