Time is a strange thing.
I can't believe that in two days, school will be over. It seems absolute ages ago when we first stepped into our new sec 3 classrooms, waiting nervously for our teachers to come in and introduce ourselves and wonder, what will this year be like?
But now it's almost over. I suppose it's been a pretty reasonable year. Depends how you see it, really. Same for all things, isn't it? As long as you want it to be a good day, it will be.
The end is always sad. Because you know that all the good times that you've had (like OBS), won't ever come back again. And you might never be so close to the same people again. Or sometimes, you might almost certainly never see someone again. LIke Madam Mak, who's leaving to go to Hong Kong. She's been a great principal.
I suppose that overall, it's that feeling of loss and sentimentality. Some experiences that we've been through, together all alone, that have moulded us into who we are now, and create our thoughts; will never be ever again.
Like yesterday's Arena first round. They kept us waitng for like another one hour, and we were freaking out in that room!! WE just kept repeating our speeches and giving each other POIs. And wearing the blazer makes you feel kinda cool. Though I slipped like two or three times wearing those court shoes. But still, when it came down to the cut of it, the part that we'd all been anxiously waiting for, it was over really fast. Yes, we were nervous. But somehow we got through, and that was the coolest part.
It's like everything else. You wait and nibble on your fingernails, just for that one single moment. And whent that moment finally comes, it's over so quickly. But then you realise that it's not the moment that counts, but the time spent waiting anxiously, fretting nervously, that really makes you who you are.
I'd like to thank everyone for shaping me and shaping my memories. It may be true that we all are, in fact, alone in the world, but most of the time, we're not. So thank you, for just being you.
Oh, and happy holidays!
