so thursday thursday was an interesting day. school as per normal. what wasnt normal was the meetings and the advice and the conversations which took place. but boy was it some lesson.
"its all about politics. people dont like changes. sometimes its best to keep your hand to yourself so as not to scare them."
"your like a timebomb. and understand we want you on our side of the force."
two people with two different agendas. one whom i respect, one whom i intend to keep a lookout for. we'll see how things go. haha. i think they'll work its way out into a nice little balance. sooner than later. things will find its niche. as always. no need to get stressed. life is too short for that.
two intelligent observations i made on that day: There are two types of people. those that care about you. those that only care about how you can be of use to them. my other observation took place whilst i was walking towards shereen's to get ready for mardi gras. and this is it.
old people dont drive slowly to piss off other drivers. they drive slow to piss off young pedestrians who are too young to drive. to remind them that they cant drive. so they drive so slow they we want to kick them, but fast enough so we cant catch up. its true. id swear by it.
mardi gras was a kick. wasnt too bad at all. jamie and all were there. all my cgmates were there. met my old friends from cg 06 again. was nice lah. felt good just being there. no regrets at all. ended up in the hawker centre drinking carbonated drinks and talking. went home by cab with shereen, cause it was late and we were too tired to take a bus. slept. woke up... i was late.
im always late. i realise. i was late ysterday for debates. late again today for debates. but nvm what happened today fer now. lets talk bout yesterday first. cause boys cant multi task. or at least i do a helluva bad job at it.
anyways yesterday was spent eating, walkinga nd talking around town, discussing our motion and buying earrings as a debat club. haha. our first debate outing. kiran, nigel, aiyshah, nadiah and benedict. went to MPH to spend my 50 bucks. got myself this book called philosophy problems, the time travellor's wife and the 12th book of a series of unfortunate events. yay! no idea how im gonna read all those when i still havent found time for the sandman, coupled witht he fact that i got KI essay, history essay and pw work all due monday....
its all a matter of time. which makes repeating year one kinda sensible to me. only one year of yourlife. and life's too short to waste it worrying. take your tiem, do what you must, do it right. thats seems to make more sense to me.
anyways at the end of yesterday i think i feel pretty good with who im with in debates. nice people. good friends.
happy new year i think. i dunno. =s
today has SC mass dnace in the morn. i failed every single dance. but hey! i smiled dammit! i smile... =) hahah. i decided i have no ambitions in the SC save that of influencing the exco to my will, and at most ill be forced into becoming alpha house cap. the reluctant house captain. hmmms. its a possibility. depending on how things turn out.
had lunch with beng at macs where we ran into nicholas from SC. i like nicholas. i think he's the kinda senior i wanna become. after lunch went to edmund's house for debate prep. and we prepped and prepped and ate and discussed. and things are not too bad i guess. eveyrhtings fine and dandy.
im in charge of this saturday's opposition team. ben, nigel and me. which of course means that i cant go for SC camp. which is kinda sad. but thats how it is....
soo much on my mind right now. cant work properly. feeling disassociated. shall update again, once ive found my roots.
