i've started school!
okay despite all the mental preparation and my brother's reminders, i'm still quite freaked out over the jump from O levels to A levels :( orientation in TPJC is quite different from the orientation in other JCs. we dont have any orientation games and we start lectures next monday. sounds really sad right? but we do have an orientation camp in march so i guess it makes up for the lack of fun in the orientation now. but of cos the orientation wasnt all serious talks (although there were a reasonable amount of them). we learnt the college song, cheer and did a mass dance so it was quite fun in that way :) the college song sounds eerie the first time you hear it but after that you start to like it :) haha i think the same goes with the school itself bahh :)
the subject talks were actually quite discouraging and after hearing them, i realised i was playing a different ball game altogether man. although biology was an exception because i was quite inspired to start studying after the talk hhaa! the teachers seem to be asking people not to take their subject rather than trying to promote them. haha but to a certain extent i think its quite good cos well, they make people think carefully and consider their strengths and abilities before choosing the subject rather than just picking the subject because they like it. so yep :)
i've made a few friends in my orientation group (OG) :D most of them are people whom i just talked to today :) on the first day i only talked to a few malay girls cos they are friendly. second day i made more friends while waiting for our turn during choir auditions haha :D there were this 2 girls from tkgs called Sharifah and Hanisa (i like to call her honey star hee) and they were really nice and talk-able haha :D there was this half jap girl called Kaede (pronounced ka-e-day) and i kept calling her ka-e-da instead because you know, Al Qaeda the terrorist group? hahaha :D i told her that and i kinda influenced other ppl to call her Kaeda s well haha! there's Jacqueline, Zhi Shu, Wai Teng and some more other ppl whose names i cannot remember haa :) and notice they are all girls because the guys in my group are all anti-socials and stick only to people of the same gender. oh and my orientation group leaders (OGLs) are nice :) there's Pearlie, Valerie and Vicknesh. i dont talk to Vicknesh because he only talks to guys and i talk to Pearlie the most haha :) she's easy to talk with and is really nice, straight forward and quite like me. :) next week will be filled with lectures and breaks (there are more breaks than lectures) so hopefully i can get to know more ppl from my OG:) theres like 30 ppl! say hi to the GM girls in TPJC :)
i really hope i can adapt to JC life soon. feeling sad and scared of everything. and lessons havent even officially started also. sighs.
