Yes girls do camwhore in the toilet



Super super zai dancing green people during Dramafeste

To make new friends yet cling onto old ones. To find a balance.

I think council seems to have a bit of this peer pressure issue involved. So many of your friends are gunning for it, even the totally unexpected ones, and you can't help but feel a tad out of the loop if you just take a backseat and watch things happen. X says I'm not the councillor type, that I don't know enough people. Y says that the Dramafeste people usually get in. But in terms of leading a crowd who will respond, why does fac spirit always seem to override school spirit, at least during intra-school events? Do people prefer to be split up and face competition instead of being united? I think that in 2010 though, we'll still look back and say that we miss the school as a whole, not merely the 4 As.

Decisions made over the next month will affect life for the next 1.5 years. Everything or nothing. Or something in between. It's really about what compromises you're willing to make to get what you want. But what if what you thought you wanted turns out to be wrong? No going back though. Will go mull over it more.

College life is so different from Nanyang last year. When we studied till 8, we were the last people left in school and tried not to bump into pillars/walls while making our way to the staircase. This year Hwachong's perpetually alive, it lives breathes eats but never sleeps. Maybe at 3am though, when there's stars and its all windy. Can't wait for the huangcheng sleepover. So what makes the school function? It seems to be the people who treat school not as their 2nd home, but their first home. To feel a sense of attachment to the dual corridors that line classrooms, things flying everywhere in the windy left wing, trying to master the art of discreet sleeping in LTs, lamenting about flunked tests.

Photography's turning out to be a focal point in my life. But I'm afraid of not meeting expectations, since I'm nowhere as pro as ZW. Need more perspectives, more experience. There's something about photography that one can't shake off. Your photos show the scene, but you're merely looking at it, not in it. So some memories become things that just passed you by. Merely looking at the experience but not in the fray. Which is why I don't go around snapping all the time. Cause if things are important enough, they'll inevitably find some other way to etch themselves into your memory, through paint streaked hair or dirty jeans or just that feeling that consumes you when something happens.

Haven't had the time to sit down and write things out properly. The past few days already seem like ages ago. Dramafeste was last week. O2 was on Monday. Swimming on Tuesday. Term One's ending, huangcheng is next weekend. In the midst of everything, I'm really grateful for the people who have given me advice, or who are just willing to listen.

To you, don't expect more, can? Don't keep waiting and make March a month of avoidance. I don't want to lose a friend.

Yesterday morning, Grandma climbed the stairs of her own accord for the first time in the last 2 years. Knocked on my door in the morning and asked where my sister was. Ah well. During the holidays I need to go replug my bowling ball and get new shoes.

And lol Dad has somehow become the new vice pres of Blue Barracuda
