One Republic- Infant sorrow- Inside of You

summary and reflections
Exam's have come to an end, so has the year.
2007 has well been, a pretty eventful year.
From the time i first stepped into TPJC, reluctant to interact
To being chummy with my OG27, we were a tight bunch then.
Got to know my 07s10 too, both girls and guys.
Over there, i made new friends, learnt how to play basketball, as well as bridge
After which came the quitting of the Cinema Service Crew at GV, those guys, some were school dropouts, some were smoking bengs, yet, i could relate to them, and we became a GV big family
I will, never forget, what my manager, Jennifer Tan has taught me, why people hate working,its not the job that sucks, its the attitude towards it that sucks. Everyone looks forward to payday, some get more, some get less, its the work we actually put in.
Then it was retrieving O level results at NAS
Would always remember, the time Mdm Sharifah looked at my results slip, opened her eyes wide and told me i got 6As and 10 points, it was as literally a dream came true.
Then came entry to MJC, which marked the end of the route of my extremely long hair
came to know the guys of 07s111, not as tight, but still okayable, perhaps its just the wide interests.
The failed tests, depressed mid years, poor promos performance, as well as personal problems, made me a changed person at the time of my life, i came to understand, and mature.
This, has pretty much summed up my year.
This years been a pretty rough year i'd say.
Indeed, i do have a lot of regrets.
I skipped classes in tpj for basketball, and struggled till today
Then it was Dads major OP, straining my limits
Afterwards came Leaving TPJ mates.
Then it was the dislike of MJC
Followed by the failed mid-years
Then it was effort put into tests which did not bear fruit
Afterwards personal problems started to surface
Then it was the failed to perform promos
This year, was also once again, plagued by serious bouts of insomnia, headache, fatigue and migraines, no different from any other.
However, this year also has its fair share of joy
I enjoyed life with classmates and OG mates at TPJ
I got my above ideal O level results
I picked up new skills
I worked part-time and matured (even though i liked that slack part time job, and no, its not the job at GV)
I got into the school of choice
I understood joy, as well as sorrows
I subconciously, enjoyed the company of 07s111.
Every single one of you, who just got to know me this year, as well as those i already knew, each take a special place irreplacable in my heart.
Thank you all of you, in one way or another, who got me through life.
These, are my To-do-lists for this holiday
1. workout
2. do end of year revision packages
3. study hard
On a side note, i remember, someone once asked me, why i am so good natured, adopting a joking attitude towards life. (Not that i think i am okay!)
By doing so, others will take advantage of you
You will constantly be the target that everyone unites and 'shoots' at
Nobody will treat you seriously
I wasan't able to answer you at that point of time, but now, i have the answer.
I don't mind being taken advantage of, as long as its not too serious
I don't mind being 'suaned' at
I dont mind being treated as a child.
But doing so provides joy to others, thats all that matters.
