I'm back in school, after a lil drama

While the world's playing out there, rejoicing that their O's are almost over.. I am at home, and probably going to start on my favourite subject aka Geography and with my 不打不相识, Chinese. You bet I disliked Chinese when I first started HCL lessons in P5 but in the recent years, especially this year, I do admit that I kinda like Chinese more than I did before.
Anyhow, the O level papers were alright, mainly do-able. I won't say anything is easy because anything easy will end up being bad. Being overconfident is bad, but most of the time I hardly have confidence in my work. In some sense, I think I screwed my O's quite badly. I was the most disappointed in my SS and probably Math papers. I have complained about Biology papers and Social Studies papers twice, but for both times then, Mrs Chow and Miss Foo said "You didn't do badly what". But I guess and I know I've been really lucky all my academic life. For math, you can never get lucky so I'll put that aside. Ha. But I do certainly pray, wish and hope that I will lucky just once more, for the time that matters the most, O's. I guess we do have unrealistic hopes for ourselves before the O's. Getting below 10 for my L1R5 is bang-head-craps-not-so-possible anymore (I THINK) Sorry Benji! I am hoping for a 15 points maybe and passing my Higher Chinese. Getting into CJC is good enough, maybe NYJC so that I can kope uniform from my sister and see Sherilyn Sia there. So for now, I think I'd probably go JC. Reasons for my choice is cos that I don't wanna take a risk, an unconventional way (both my sisters went to JC) and poly seems absolutely foreign. And I definitely don't wanna see my cousin in the same poly as me, I will bang head crash and die. I was having lunch with Cheryl Tang and Sherilyn today and what Cheryl said made so much sense. Everyone wants to go Poly to avoid the stress we face in just mugging. True 'nuff! But what's said is just being said, I am only contemplating but I know everyone will be in grins to see me in JC. Miss Foo said she'll reserve a seat for me to do relief teaching in Geog during my break in 2012, should I go JC. I will be more than glad to attend Mrs Lim's lessons all over again, the carefree, relax, engaging Geography lessons

My little thoughts for now.. just hoping my O level results will be slightly better than average! Not that good to land me up in Top 5 (reserved for Sonja, Eunice Chua, Janice Chia, Yongping, Kazim?, Rayson?) but not bad to land me up no where! 5 last papers to determine my grades.. for the rest of the world, have a good break before your MCQ papers. For the geogies, a week more to literal freedom ^^
