This is just to show that im still..well, alive.
Surprisingly, I had been able to keep my cool before and during each paper. I guess thats really important, isnt it? Ha. So I hope my results will be able to reflect my cool performance? haha.
Something Mr Derek Lee said during lecture yesterday really struck me.
You guys have the knowledge, just not the strategies.
Well, I guess exams really arent about how much you know, but rather, how you are able to put forward what you know. Afterall, how much knowledge are you able to showcase during that 3 short hours? Two years of work and the only chance you get to prove yourself will be 3 hours of paper. Isnt it kinda unfair and cruel?
Anyway, I guess I will just continue to take each paper with a calm heart and just forget about the results. Like what Esti said, " Doing well for exams isnt the only thing to life. And, theres other routes in life other than getting into a university. "
How true. Sometimes you just dont know how things will turn out to be until you get there.
船到桥头自然直。
I will, learn to enjoy the remaining papers.
( I mean, at least its human geog and econs! Like,human geog is one of my favourite papers! (: )
Think positive. |

I know I need to stay calm in order to do well. So, now its time to get rid of all the nagging feelings within.
Hang on, hang on please.

I do remember that im supposed to blog about graduation, so here I am!
I know im going to sound cheesy if I say this, but yes, the 2 years have passed fast. Real fast. Frankly speaking, coming to nyjc wasnt initially in my plans. I had never thought I would end up here but somehow, because of my results (and maybe, fate), I ended up here. And now, after 2 years, I guess I can safely say that I dont regret it, at all.
It hadnt been an easy journey. To be honest, I found it difficult to feel truly proud of the school at first. I guess there was just a part of me who still wished that I could have gone to, well, other places. Looking back, I feel that I was totally being silly. Yes, academic wise, we may be pretty far from the top, but education certainly isnt just about studies, right?
The video montage by the teachers was good. I was really touched, as in all their efforts and well wishes are so evident. You can really sense that they are really wishing us all the best. It was so sincere, and memorable. Honestly, im really thankful for all the teachers! Especially those who have taught me. Its very comforting to know that they are, and will, always be there for us (:
Many people have been complaining about how tough jc life is. But honestly, I do not think so. Yes, the syallabus is certainly far more demanding but that apart, I think the rest of jc life has been amazing. And who says that its hard to find true friends in jc! From cca to class, I have made lots of wonderful friends and im really thankful for them(:
But now, the journey hasnt ended. I look forward to the next time we'll all be gathered in the hall, nervously awaiting for the results of our hardwork. And im sure, that will be the most perfect full stop to this two year long journey. Meanwhile, hang on friends! We'll all make it there, im very sure (:
According to Mr Kwek's theory, im ten more steps away from where I want to be. Ten steps may seem to be a lot, but I know I can do it. Yes, I will. |

No doubt he cant sing, but can boybands like Farenheit sing?
( Plus, at least hes good looking. And hes an actor, not even a singer ) |

I know im not supposed to be here now but somehow im feeling so unsettled i think im gonna break into pieces soon?
I need to let go of all the expectations and just do the freaking paper and like what esti said,
" Just enjoy all the papers."
To be honest, i felt quite happy yesterday after doing the geog paper (except the freaking meandering channel part which i could have easily done if i just memorise that part of the notes:/ )
But anyway, that aside, it was the first time that i felt so relieved after doing a geog paper and not feel like, "I'll sure fail!" or something.
Lets just hope that the result will show.
As for tomorrow's paper,
I need to relax, like seriously. |
