It all started almost a year ago. When I got back my PSLE result slip from MrDanielWong back in 6.1 classroom nbps. I knew I could have been able to do better, as I didn't put in my best.english A
math A
chinese A
science A
231.
Yet, I was somewhat satisfied with my results. I always wanted to get into PresbyterianHigh. I'm sure people like krithi, deryl, qianqi, adrian, krystal and wani would have known that all along. And yes, it is because it was a Christian-based school as a matter of fact. I missed being in StAnthonyCannosianPrimary. I miss singing along with choir; the pastoral care lesson every friday morning, followed by chapel service; and not forgetting the masses. And yes, I was indeed happy and satisfied that I got into the school I've always wanted to. I didn't want to set too high hopes for myself. I didn't think of YishunTown or Anderson or CCHY or whatsoever. I'm the really realistic and down to earth type of girl. I'm sure God had a purpose for me in PresbyterianHigh, to inculcate Christian values, especially when I seldom go to church, even though I would consider myself as a Christian. And, 2 semesters have passed just like that. I would have said I changed alot. Both in a bad and good way. I've learnt to be least sensitive and insecure. I've started to understand that we are all different. Yet I've started to swear alot, and becoming a gossip-monger. Everything I pray and I ask God to forgive me for all the hurtful words I used towards others, but yet, I've never really changed. Throughout all the obstacles I've gone through this year, God showered me with unfailing love and peace. He continued to give me the strength to move on, and he gave me the wisdom to concentrate on my studies. Without Him, I wouldn't have achieved what I have achieved today. All glory goes to him. Not to me, the teachers, my parents or anyone but simply to Him. I remember failing english twice this year. People like Stephanie and Krithi would have known how depressed I was over it. I considered blaming my parents for bringing me to Marina Bay Sands overnight to celebrate National Day, but I knew it wasn't their fault but mine, I was getting way to complacent. It was like a wake up call for me. Mr Daniel Wong always told us that we are all responsible for our own learning. I understand that my parents might not be the best in providing me and my brother in education. Both of them did not come from rich families. They could only study till Secondary 4. Honestly, I used to envy how some of my friend's parents seem more concern about their children's education. Take Melanie and Amanda for example. Their dad is always there helping them with their studies. My dad? I could only ask him how to read some chinese characters. My mum? She could only help me till I was Primary 5. But I have never really blamed them. I knew I only had to work harder. I'm glad that they did not really push me too hard. Maybe they didn't at all. But that is because I am different from my brother. I motivate myself instead of expecting rewards. Without people like Krithi, Stephanie, Raina, Amanda, Melanie and Priscilla, things wouldn't have been so smooth for me. Yesterday was way too much drama for me. Last day of school, knowing which class we get into. Firstly, Stephanie, thanks alot for the early birthday present. It is Ah-mazing. Secondly, Priscilla, I love ya forever and always. "Smile like a sunflower and the world smiles with you!" Thirdly, Raina, thanks for being with me all the time. I love how GirlsBrigade has bought us together. I'll pray for a better year ahead for you. I can't imagine how competitive it is going to be for me next year. 2Humility, with all those smart ass. I think its time I get tuition. But after today's PTC, I think I should reconsider. Ms Fu was right. I should put in as much effort as I did this year. If I continue to push myself to hard, I'll break apart. Everything would backfire when I'm Secondary 3 and 4, which is the crucial part. So I think I'm just gonna ask for science tuition. The rest I should be able to handle alone. I wouldn't say that 1Faith'10 was a bonded nor united class sadly, but after almost a year together, there are still some relationship between us. 6.1'09, I miss how united we were as a class, with our amazing and beloved MrDanielWong. Hope that we would be able to meet up again soon. Though I'm uncertain of what lies infront of me, I trust that the Lord has greater plans for me.
