I will try to be as honest as possible in this post. 2009 is coming to an end! I shall write in the Ups and Downs of 2009,starting with the Downs then to the Ups! Downs 1. I got rejected by Musical. I thought I stood a good chance. The guy even said "That was good!" 2. I got rejected by PSB. I knew I had no hope in this one though. 3. I got rejected by House Comm. I was unsure about this, but deep inside I was really hoping I would get in. 4. I got rejected by OM. I felt like a truck ran over me when the results came out. I cried that day and that night, asking myself why I didn't get in. Right now I'm still not sure why I did not get in. Hsin Pei tried to convince me I would get in before the results came out and told me they would reject truly lousy ones, which she felt I wasn't one of them. Maybe I'm just lousy. 5. My Chinese marks dipped to 59. Erm... (: 6. My mum had a cancer scare. This was the scariest of the lot. Thank god it's just a scare. 7. I just dropped my ice-cream. ): Nooo my ice-cream D: Ups 1. I made new friends with my OM team members and I discovered the meaning of "Hard Work Paid Off". I don't care what the teachers say about what we could have done even better/more. I liked what we did. And I made 6 new friends. 2. Choir achieved a "Gold" for SYF. Though everyone wanted a Gold with Honours, I think Gold is enough. After all, the main point of SYF to me is not to achieve Gold with Honours but to know that you've put in tons of effort into creating good music. 3. Our class made a class tee. As compared to last year this is one HUGE achievement. Someone pass me the confetti! 4. I got closer to my classmates! Amanda Hsiung, Amanda Lee, Eswari, Yu Teng, Desiree, Kimberly, Wu You, Xue Tong, more people whom I can't think of right now. Oh Yuanyue, err... dunno (: 5. I encouraged Wei Ling to audition for the Musical. I think this changed much of her life and helped her find new friends. Thus I'm happy I convinced her to go for it. 6. I have a new-found confidence in choir. Anyone who was in choir last year would know that I was very shy and I didn't dare to interact with almost everyone. I was also an easily emotional person, angry at the sight of two busking groups and crying over such stuff. I'm happy to say that since this year came I realised I had to come out of my bubble and stop being so self-centred. This gave me confidence and leads to... 7. I made new choir friends! I can give you names! Lemme think... okay here are the people whom I consider new friends (or at least people I think I can comfortably say hi to when we pass by) I made this year. Wanyii, Sinyee, Shauna, Ariel Lim, Emeline, Chengyi, Enting, Amanda, Giovanni, Cheryl, Nicolette, Reetaza, Claire, Churen, Sarah, Jodyn, Wei Ling.. zzz there are so many I don't wanna say anymore. I'm too lazy (: So here are the Ups and Downs. :D |
