2010 has been the awesomest year EVER! I am so bloody glad that I enjoyed this year! My class got so much more fun because we became very bonded. I remember how we were a bit cliquey and how each “group” didn’t like the other one; fine we are still cliquey but hey, this is common, you can’t expect everyone to be everyone’s best friend because we all have different personalities, so I think that being cliquey isn’t a problem, it’s whether we are comfortable with each other. I felt just right in 207. Not a loner, but also not someone who’s surrounded by a huge bunch of friends but no one’s really close to you. As a matter of fact, I would hate that. I’d rather only have 1 or 2 best friend/s than to have a whole lot but no one can really understand you, truly. I actually don’t mind having my best friend in my CCA. Some people would say that it’ll be boring after a while, but I think it’s fine cos you always can talk to other people! I’m quite sure I don’t want my best friend to be someone sticky. Actually, I don’t have a best friend! No, correction: I don’t want to have a best friend; I want a few close friends, but not a best friend. I know it doesn’t make much difference and it doesn’t make much sense, but somehow “best friend” sounds too, heavy, like it’s a promise? It’s like saying “yes” to a marriage proposal. It’s promising yourself to someone, telling him/her that no matter what happens, you’re gonna stick with them and be their friend. This is how I picture it lah. I know I have a handful of friends who are really kind and who know me very well, I think they’re my best friends, but I don’t ever say that to them. Isn’t it sad if you really think about it? Well it’s because I really don’t want a bond, I’ll feel trapped, for some random reason. So yeah, I think we’re done with explaining the meaning behind “best friend”, haha! Now, where was I? Right 207! Yes I loved the class so much not because it’s a super fun class (it is, but it’s not the main reason why I love it), not because it’s an enthu class (we’re SO not, haha), but the comfort I feel staying in that class. I can always just pick up any random conversation with anyone and feel great! The word I keep using is “comfortable”, and another word would be “understanding”. It really sums up the whole feeling I have for 207. I’m not the without-you-I-can’t-live extreme kind. I’m more of the neutral kind instead. So 207 gave me the whole “I can relax in the environment and keep my stress level at zero” feel, shiok!
Other than having a more awesome class, teacher, syllabus and studying environment this year, I also attended CAP which TOTALLY ROCKED MY JUNE HOLS BECAUSE THE WHOLE THING WAS DAMN BLOODY FUN! I learnt so much and met many cool people! Ahh I’m starting to miss it again. I thought the whole CAP reminiscence should be over by now? Anyway, I want to get into CAP council and participate in it!
Another thing was joining gym; I really haven’t made the wrong decision at the beginning of the year. Ok lah at first I felt a bit detached from the whole CCA because I wasn’t close to them at all. It was a bit awkward. I’m sure it was weird for all of us cos we barely knew each other yet we had to act nice. Hehh. I think it was during concert when I finally got much closer to the whole CCA! Ok I already knew my batch much more by the end of the June hols, and our relationship (haha wts it sounds funny) builds up more and more ever since! However, I still didn’t know much about the seniors and juniors. That’s also another reason why I’m so grateful to concert! Not only was the experience refreshing and exciting, that was also when I really bonded with all my CCAmates! I’m so glad that I have them and gym is adding so many shades of colours to my life! If you’re feeling jealous as you read this, GOOD! >)
Last but not least, I have improved holistically as a learner and a person. I have become so much more mature ever since the end of last year. I’m able to reason so much better! Not only did I become much more mature, I became A HELL LOT MORE optimistic! Thank goodness! Also, my grades improved a tiny little bit after weeks of hardcoring and mugging. I know a mere 3.6 isn’t an accomplishment for some of y’all, IT’S ALREADY LIKE HEAVEN FOR ME! I’m not those that say, “No lah, my results are very low!” Even if I do, it’s just common courtesy, I don’t wanna be rude! Deep down inside, I’m very proud of myself for this improvement! Well of course, that’s not enough for me, I would definitely want to climb even higher next year!
So, that was how I feel about 2010! It was indeed an amazing year for me JNow, for my New Year resolution!
What I want to do in 2011:
That’s all so far! I’ll add on if I have more! And well, that’s all for this post. Thanks for reading and bye!
