term three's whizzing by and in a flash, we're three weeks in to it:) one never will know when a blink of an eye would bring them back to the past, or will it propel them into the future. This year, i've fallen sick for at least three times- like majorly, MC requiring kinda sick. It's weird really, because in the past, i dont fall super sick except for like, once in two years? i can count the number of days of MC i've taken in Jurong in less than two hands. Two days, if i'm not wrong. Yet, just two terms into school at ACSI, i've taken three days already.
perhaps its the stress? the doctor was like, sometimes, even when you dont feel stressed, you might just be stressed. maybe you're so used to it that it doesnt bother you anymore. perhaps, this is so? yesterday, for the first time since forever, i was so close to crying in the chem lab. because i had no bloody idea what the teacher was trying to make us do, i was confused and cold and i had no strength to link up all the tiny blocks of atoms to form the molecular shape. I didnt realise it then, but i was sick.
thanks to all my lab mates who put up with me yesterday. i must have been super whiney and all, i think. when i got to the doc yesterday, he realised that i was running a fever (i must have been delirious or something to not have realised it) and suffering from FATIGUE. HA! he said i needed to relax and get enough rest. i asked for an MC for today, but i got tomorrow too. i'll make use of the time to catch up with my school work then.
it's still weird having to struggle to find my footing, to find a place for myself. its weird to walk into the SAC and realise that no one i know is there (though now, usually there's a few ppl i know:))its weird to walk alone in school and not have someone there to talk to you. i realised in light of all these how important my friends are to me. somehow, there seem to be this worry that is forever present that i find myself alone in school. (thankfully, its not happening now)
its hard not to miss the good old days when every person you see is someone whom you know, and will at least smile at. this is how much i loved secondary school, and still do. and i feel that many of us feel this way... although i must admit that i love 5.7 more than i loved 4/5, because we're all one same bunch of fun loving people and we love each other:D back in 4/5, i never do spend enough time with the class.
somehow, lessons were so much easier in sec school, when the teachers print us notes and slides and go through it, and dump worksheets for us to practice. now that i'm left all on my own, its hard to find my way through, though im starting to master the techniques. sometimes, its just tiring to have endless things to do and clear.
student leaders' network is a GREAT THING though. our Operation B.B (bounce back) was a great success if i must say and YUP, WE DID IT. we're FIRST class:P next up, Operation C.Cube.
so much to do, so little time. do what you can as you will:) love you all.
