today.

went to sch for ISAC today.

but before i comment on ISAC i thought i'll spend some time to talk abt the TJR campus.

firstly, they have yello chairs. like BIRGHT YELLOW chairs. like those tt u'll likely find in nursary class. arrgh. cant stand it. strains my eyes u know. and strains my brain to even think abt it.

ok this a bit random but i thought it'll be good to share (:

u know we were at the TJR campus then someone said go to KFC to eat.

then we actually stoned for a while.

it really took everyone like 3 seconds to realise that we are not a Mt Senai anymore!

haha!

cos we were like expecting her to say Ghim Mo Market or smth.

cause like, Mt Senai got no fast food.

HAHA! okok random.

ok, moving on,

there hasn't been ISAC activitiy for a long time but i think it felt much better after that long break.

i guess the people really mattered.

i spend the better part of the afternoon talking to SwatYee & Wyane & Yifan @ KFC for the longest time.

i didnt realise it was so much fun to listen to their cycles of stories.

though i cant excactly say i'm close to them,

but it was cause the main characters were like the people we know,

and they were very willing to share and i felt comfortable jus laughing with their stories.

that's how it should be right?

i mean, it's casue they are nice people that i felt at ease with them.

and their effective communication which i felt i need with a lot of people but it somehow wasnt there.

i'm really glad i got to talk to them.

and i really think i should talk to them more.

i'm glad we're in press corps ((:

i'm so glad i'm in DHS actually.

cause like i just heard someone said "i hate DHS" then i thought back to my many talks with all the HighFive ppl from ohter tops schools.

the general feeling i get is that cause their school is big, they undeniably have more exposure but most of them dont actually like their school culture very much.

and so would i lah, if i had went there.

recently someone asked if i regret staying in DHS ( as in not transfering out ) and i thought about it.

truth is,

initially: yes. i really regretted it.

i was like missing out on so many opportunities and i would have made so many friends and all.

then i went so depressed that i even talked bad abt DHS fo a while until i grew immune to it and just stopped thinking about it.

and i havent thought abt it since.

until now, when someone asked if i regret making that choice to stay.

and my answer now would be no.

yes i do know i'm missing a lot of the JC life that the rest are speaking about, but i'm also freed from the complexities that come with it.

although i do agree that i could have made more friends if i've went on but why would i want to make more new friends when there could only be a few close ones?

i know some of us are still thinking about the opportunities that we missed,

but i seriously dont regret my decision.

although i cant say for the social circle that i could have widened but i could for the depth of ties that we've formed through the years.

i dont know what could have become of me if i really did transfer but i certainly would know what would happen to all the half formed friendship if i had left it just like that.

though the people remian the same but our ties get strengthened by the day.

bonds take time to grow and i really feel that i have more close friends now than i did in my junior high years.

i'd rather have close friends that i can really depend on in times of trouble then friends whom i could say hi on the corridor to.

well, that's just me i supposed.

and i realised after the talk @ KFC that DHS really still has more people that i havent met and nice people that i havent discoverd.

ok more reminence.

i was clearing out my Sec 1/2 stuff and i saw the old art pieces and i was like 0.o

sigh.

those were the days when we were made to do painting and all the stuff that i didnt like and in the end i was so bad at it.

lucky i took art in Year 3-4 if not i would have been stuck at the lousy image of art all my life.

ok finally, smth that totally pissed me off.

those tt know me will know that i hardly ever roll my eyes, or at least i try not to.

however, this made me roll it many times and it's because of 2 ppl that totally deserve coal from Santa this Xmas.

#@!!$&*^#\^(%*$#$@!^!!

i'm wondering why am i still nice so as to give her a Xmas card.

HUMPH.

ohh speaking of Xmas cards,

i'll pass it to u guys when i see u this week or if not i'll be mailing it be it'll take a long time cos there are many last-minute senders (like me) out there.

so sorry but it's better late than never right?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE! (or rather, wad's left of it) ((:
