been awhile

It was exactly 10 days ago since i wrote a proper entry and i must say till now i don't know what to write about.

Of course there has been activities going on with me for those 10 days (: of not writing an entry, however i think i just got lazy writing a post.

To my readers, i apologise.
Especially to the sisters who read to at least keep themselves updated whether or not i'm still alive, if i don't call or text them.
I know they are still around despite the current absence.
That despite the distance they'll be there when i need them, as always.
.... and vice versa (:

Well, there's nothing really exciting that happened - or at least no C4 bomb going off.
I actually just recovered from being sick. It was a horrible combination of cough, flu, on and off fever, phlegm, body aches, sore throat and topped with migraine.
Terrifying combination i tell you. and all thanks to SO MUCH FUN :D

I was afraid my migraine will be staying for quite awhile, but thank GOD i kicked it out.
Or merely just slept more to elevate the pain.
I skipped Web Application and SAD modules, and my weekend job too.
If there's one thing i can advice - AVOID TOO MUCH FUN. LOL!


Lately i haven't been in touch with my programming ability.
(The last three or four lessons, i actually smoked through it only.)
I'm wasting my knowledge and 'talent' for it! Seesh. I just hope FYP won't bee too much of a problem in year 3.
So there has been good changes that are not fully detailed out to us RP students yet.
However, i can feel it will do good for the value of the institution's diplomas.

Most, if not all, has shunned the thoughts of going to RP and has once or twice called it a REJECT POLY.
Pessimistic view and misjudgement has created quite a bit of hardship for us RP students to be looked upon as those students going to SP and TP.
I was here one thing due to bad grades, as i cocked up my O Levels.
However what saved me was that i got in to my chosen course in the school, which is Diploma in Business Computing.

I have my bad views of RP system however it's not that RP uses Problem based learning and 1D1P (One day one problem) x 16 weeks (1 SEM). I think it's GREAT.
My bad views was the absence of proper tests and final examinations.
I know i'm nutcase for wanting tests and exams coming from St. Hilda's with quite a lot of tests already.
However, as i mature, i realise that these exams are the best guage to how much effort you put in to study and how much you have understood in class.
And now, finally they are actually establishing examinations! I just hope i wont hate exams again. I must remember that i actually WANT exams (:

RPrincipal - MR YEO LI PHEOW

I have faith that the new principal of RP will create a better rapport between students and school. All the best to the current changes he'll be establishing. So far, it's all good.
Also, school hours will be changed for the seniors :D
Year 3s in 2009 will start coming in at 10am and they will end roughly at 4 or 5pm.

Details have yet to be announced.

Soon the last poly year for me will come and i will be graduating with the diploma i hope will do be good in the workforce. I also hope that the world economy that heavily depends on US economy will get better under the rule of President-elect Barack Obama.

His party's slogan, THE CHANGE WE NEED, hopefully will be THE GREAT CHANGE every citizen of Earth will benefit from.
He's not GOD nor can he really be all saint however, i will believe that he's the one who will create a dramatic change in this inhospitable world we are currently fighting to survive in.

Post graduation doubts will come when time draws near.
For now, my year 2009 is showing me that planning and going according to it will help me to control whatever obstacles i will be facing.
I fear a lot of things, but putting a reign over these fears is really doing a good deal for me.

There are a lot of fears and doubts that are still present and along with it, there are things in my past growing up that still bothers me.
As Shenath advises, i have to get over it. I have to deal with it, he's right.
Dwelling on it and thinking about those things will not make me feel any better.

I also have to think that being the person i am and being in my current situation of life now, i have to be thankful for whatever i have and not think of the what ifs and what could have been.
Through the years, i have grown up strong and on the right track of things despite not being at all Saint.
And i have to be thankful for the personality and talents that GOD has given me.

Ana and Zak, i love you both.
Shenath, thanks for taking time to listen. I love you.

Nurul thanks for being always there for me, through whatever i'll be there for you.
Sisters, you are all great.
New friends, new-old friends, old-new friends, thanks for the smiles and many more to come.

This year onwards, things will be good.
Whatever comes, i will continue to be strong, in control and be happy (:

and guess what?
i'll be LEGAL21 in 7 MONTHS!!!!
