I wish it was me...

What do you do with people who think that they're very good when in actual fact, they need a lot of catching up? Should they still be given chance after chance?

MEEP

This blog is mainly created to vomit out my thoughts about this semester, which is super memorable so I want to write it down somewhere, it's gonna be long so have fun reading it (or not).


This memorable sem is both fun and miserable, exciting and boring. It only seems like yesterday when I first started poly life but now, half of it is gone already.
It only seems like 5 hours ago when we started sem 2.1 and now we're done with it. Everything is so fast, yet the individual days seem to stretch endless(ok, maybe not..). I've seen classmates cry due to rejection, unfairness and more, I've cried so many more times in just half a year than ever, we're all driven crazy by an eccentric, reject-all-ideas old lecturer, we know it's good practice for the future, but we still grumble about it all the time, afterall we're still students and deserve some leniency.
I've never ever dedicated so many weekends to do project work(s). I've never ever had so little time to relax, that even sitting down for 5 minutes in front of the TV evokes guilt.
Initially, I really wondered if I could ever pull through this sem, but now, as I'm typing in front of my laptop(with probably 20% of sanity gone), I know I did and it was hard but definitely doable(or not how the people working in this industry would have survived?!), with lots of crying, paper tearing, hair pulling and blah blah blah.
Despite all these not-so-positive things, there are still some fun things in the sem, the very first one was to see our lecturer featured in an ad (we laughed the moment he appeared until the ad ended). Random photo spams, random sing-out-loud sessions, random facebook-stalking breaks, random gossips here and there...
It's a good and a bad semester, I don't really want to face it again, but FACE THE TRUTH, you'll still have to go through the same thing next sem, Shi Ling.

Aside from school work, school work and more school work, I also have my dance for D3 and ITM2013. It's quite a tough job balancing between work and dance, many times I felt like skipping training (due to frustration about lack of time, guilt about leaving my group mates to do the work and so on), I'm really glad I didn't because dancing provides a temporary break for me. Even during the most urgent week, I still left for ITM, first reason being I really need to catch on the choreo and second reason being that I really need time to rest. Obviously, I felt super guilty for leaving my group mates, and I still feel that way. Thanks for being there when I need you, dance *sobs uncontrollably*.
Now that the worst is over, I can finally concentrate on the recital and ITM, until school reopens (but both performances will end by November so that's the good thing) but I really want to work. Reaaaallllllyyyy want to work, for my own pocket money and so I stop asking money from my dad all the time. But it seems like it's a busy holiday without work already, so what should I do? Sigh.

This sem is also very much encouraged by my friends, we tell each other to relax and go play somewhere during the littler than nothing free time(like a few hours after the submission of a work). Also my dear hobo club, whenever I start screaming in the chat, almost everyone will be like telling me to relax and nail whatever nerve-racking presentation I'm having. Really huge thanks to Choo for always giving me chocolates when I stressed or upset (I'm calling this The Chocolate Favour), Pearly for writing that little post-it, it made me realised how I'm really so much less slack as compared to year 1 (and getting all embarrassed when giving the notes to us).
