Suddenly had the urge to blog today so here goes..
Life in TJ has been great so far I guess. I get to stay with old friends whom I'm comfortable with and I've found many more new friends that I click with super fast. I also feel that I've more opportunities to pursue my interests here, actually. With CWJC and GDRC as well as other opportunities that randomly present itself right in front of my eyes. It's a matter of whether or not I step up to the plate and take them on.
Academics-wise.. I can't really comment. I've been slacking the entire term one so, it holds true that you reap what you sow. I got a 7 out of 25 for math? Like schwaaa? But yeah.. I really didn't understand.. I did get 6 out of 25 for lit tho. Considering I have no grounding in lit, a 6 in TJ is quite okay. Our standards are just high for some reason and I did get positive comments so I'm relatively happy. I just have to work for it :) For economics though, I scored a 9 out of 15! I'm relatively happy coz it's the only pass I managed to get SO FAR. Can't wait to get my HISTORY test back! Anticipating rather good results for that even though I did not revise. HEEHEE. Sec 4 work so yeeeah.
Other than school, life has been rather kind to me, I think. Tomorrow marks the second month of a turning point in one aspect of my life. Doesn't feel that long though! Maybe coz it sunk in only recently, but oh well! That's a good sign, I believe :)
I think my attitude towards many things has changed drastically, actually. I want to get the most out of my life, no matter which aspect. I mean, humans have many dimensions to them, right? I don't want to just.. slack off and have no meaning in life. I mean, obviously studies are not everything. I don't wanna be someone who could only do well academically either. I want to be someone with an active social life, good track record in school, score relatively well and a good daughter/granddaughter/sister/whatever.
I know I've neglected some of my responsibilities and roles the past few years but I'm trying to make up for it starting from this year. Maybe I'm just maturing, but I've developed a new-found respect towards most people in my life.. New-found guilt of disappointing them time and again. New-found vigour of living up to their expectations, to be all that I can be...
Guess that would keep me busy for quite some time. Time-management has to come in pretty soon. Can't really play by ear like what I'm doing now. I'll do my best and see where it gets me :)
