Trg ytd was bad. Sore legs alll over fr tt little wkout. I know my commitment fr track will go dwn frm nxt yr onwards. Perhaps its a mistake that I joined track. Right, I will stop this senseless thinking of non-reflective values. Anyway these few days had been pretty mad. Caught up with Weimin on the phone just ytd and had a gd chat in the wee hrs of the morning fr 2 hrs. He claimed its been so long he spoke yo another dude on the phone fr this long. Hahas. Didn't know tt he knows ppl like Jacky, Josephine, Jeremy and Agnes. Oh wait and Pillai too. We cld turn our conversation into some sort of podcast man though its a little too long fr one.

Since its the last day of the year, it wld be gd fr some self-reflection/flashback. I'm very lazy to type so I'll just ultra-summarise it.
Term 1: Orientation period. When I first stepped into college, every intention was fr the 2 yr education. Frm there I got to know the 4/6 peeps and other prcs ppl a lot better as we'ld stick to ourselves mst of the time. That's hw I got to know xq, jas, crys, oke, mas and meihui. Sch days were so relaxed and my mind started to drift off frm the primary goal of education in a jc. That wasn't the worst thing to happen to me this yr. I mean dreaming in lala land isn't tt bad fr the 1st 3 mths I felt. But somehow because of tt I didn't realise soon enough tt I can't cope with math like ever since those pri5 days so I ended up this yr with a subj combi I don't like. I got to know lots of ppl thru orientaion. I like my sirius ogms and ogls. And the 1st orientation was pretty much a success.. at least way better than the sec one days where we did stupid things likee finding the AVA room or locating the very micro library where you can't study. Ok I"m suppose to reflect j1 not sec1.

Term2: JAE officailly started. Liek I said, I picked the same combi as I didn't detect and difficulties I wld face. I guess I knew tt math isn't gg to be easy fr me but I dismissed it then. The official/new 05s09 was formed and I knew the whole of the fantastic class within 2 weeks. There wasm't much difference frm 1st 3 mths I guess. I slacked/skipped/hopped ard. Hahas. Wasn't really motivated. I didn't do the tutorials. Was sent out of class. Held the 2nd position fr being late in terms of frequency. (Tmo beat me to that) Was in the bad books of Ms Loh. Anyone can tell how much she dislike the guys in class. All except Alvin as he's the only one producing results and attending lessons all the time. Oh ya. I skipped some MT lessons too. I seriously didn't feel the need fr chinese lessons. They don't help at all. In other words term 2 was the laziest time of the year. I didn't put in effort fr a gd start and tt meant I lost half the battle.

Term 3: Aft common test with the perfectly red results I got I decided to do my stuff. PTM made me see the better side of Ms Loh. Fr once she seem to show concern as a tchr fr me. I did the tutorials, attended lectures and was nt late as frequently as before. Was a whole lot better and ct was ok with me then on. It was the period of Nationals too.

Term 4: MUG time. Nth much. When results were out I was glad I cld at least be advanced. Yea I was sad at Derick, tk and wm situation. I thought I was lucky to be able to advance and little did I know I wld be so stressed during my hols to make up fr the little things I know abt the math syllabus. So here I am with my decision to retain.

I know the para get shorter with the terms. I'm lazy to type like I said.


Memories will fade with time. But it doesn't mean it's all worthless. (: 2005 isn't exactly bad either.
