A levels are OVER!!!
Finally finally finally…
It is OVER!!!!
Yet I do not feel extremely happy… I guess that Physics S has scared me for quite a bit..
I just left two days for me to stay in hostel…
Two days…
Feeling sad? I do not know though..
Such a failure huh?
I still remember the day I just moved into NUS High..
OF course I felt sad leaving Oldham hall that time.. Not being able to live together with those friends in oldham got me quite sad.. Yet, the fact that I was going to meet juniors here gave me some joy and excitement.
Some people felt that since we were still in Singapore, we still can meet each other, there’s nothing to feel sad about.. Ah yeah… yet we were not being able to stay together!! The friendships that have been built in the J1 year, I worried, would not continue due to this reason..
Yet, I still had to move. So what can I do is to hope to meet the juniors soon and feel happy about it. Initially I remember, I did not go out since I did not have plans going out. So I stayed back for dinner and of course, tried to get to know some of the juniors.
Luckily I was able to meet some of them and got to know them. What I still remember vividly was Allen ( "Which part(of Msia) are you from?" "Jb." "Oh.. which school?" "Why d’you want to know?" "I am from Jb also you know.." "Oh.. Pelangi." "Pelangi?" "See, everybody’s response is the same.." ) After he knew I was from SSI, he kept being ‘perasan’ by saying students from Pelangi (implying him) are smart. Of course I argue with him SSI students are the best, haha.. We still argue about our sch sometimes after that.
Then, Esther. I remember that since Allen knew I am from Jb, he brought her to meet me and said she was from Convent. So I asked her for her name, she said she was Esther Chan. Then I was like, "Ooh.. that Esther Chan!!!" Then she was like, "What? That Esther Chan?" Haha.. So I told her that I have heard her name in SSI for many times before, then we started to talk about SSI people, how we may meet before etc.
The beginning of NUS High Hostel life.
To describe the details of the life here, it will be too much to put here until I do not know where to start. It is just wonderful. The interactions with juniors are just too memorable. They are too lively and lovely, making me more cheerful. I become a little bit childish when I realise argueing with them brings me joy. I become manja when I know I definitely can get comfort from them. They are a bunch of kind humans who do not mind to help unconditionally. Staying together with them is not worse than staying with oldham people at all, in fact, I feel better.
Initially we were not close as we seldom went out together and during dinner time, everybody was busy and hence finished dinner early and went to do their stuffs. Then, after our first outing, which was Ronald’s "farewell" dinner, somehow we just started to see the importance to interact more with one another. While they encouraged, comforted and cheered us up during our stressful exams, we seniors did reward them by organising some BBQ, dinner outing and "certificate-and-personalised-present giving ceremony" Everything that has been done in hostel here and with the juniors are just super duper wonderful.
Yet, life has to go on. Just two more days I have to say bye bye to this building. I have said bye bye’s to some of the juniors. Now, I have to say bye bye to the desire to stay together with the juniors. The sweet memory will stay forever in my mind. I will still be able to meet them anytime if I want to.. haha…
Hmm.. the end of J2 year. It just ends like that. Finally I will have long holidays. Unlike last two years, after SPM I was off for Singapore two weeks after the exam. I had not rested well yet.. there were so many plans yet to be done. Then the hectic JC life started. But who will know, that these two years are far more better than the 5 years in SSI. I just feel so blessed by God. It is Him who let me pass the selection test. It is by His will that I am studying in this wonderful college, ACJC. I am not disappointed for not getting into JCs like Raffles, Hwa Chong etc. Yet studying here has given me so much joy and happiness. It is by His grace that I get to know many wonderful people - classmates, schoolmates, ccamates, Oldham hall people, juniors etc etc I feel so loved by Him.. Thank you so much, Lord!!
