Can't believe it. It's finally here, my final year. It officially begins today.
I'm... actually really really excited! *screams
Yeah, I was scared and am still scared but... I think I've mentally prepared myself. But I know no matter how mentally prepared I am, I'm sure to bump into difficulties along the way. But it's ok!!!
I'M READY. I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!
Thank you so much for leaving those comments of encouragement whoever you guys are. They really mean a lot. I don't say thank you for no reason. So thank you again : ) It's always super encouraging to read them when you sometimes feel like you're struggling alone. Blogging really is quite cathartic for me because I reflect by writing and I end up coming up with ways to get out of what I'm experiencing.
Anyway, yesterday, I went to school for filming another alumni. It was quite fun, my interviewee was the best one I've had so far. He's awesome I seriously love him!!! SO MANY quotable quotes argh, he's seriously the best.
Anyway, I took this picture to tell my friends that I reached school. And that this was a nice location for a portrait,
But ended up camwhoring with my school's name.
Can flip somemore siolz. Cool siolz.
It is truly, the best school. Where I blossomed spiritually, mentally, physically to become the wholesome being that I am today WHOOP. Valedictorian right there.
AND IN A FEW HOURS, I will see this school again. Final year ahhhh.
I'mma have brekkie with a friend before we head off at noon to Pulau NTU. And then, attend Media Law. Quite excited to get my brain going.
And excited to see all my friends again. Can't wait to see them again after a long semester away from all of em coz of internship! Yeahyerrr.
I feel like a Primary School kid all over again.
By the way, did y'all catch NDP a few nights ago??
For me, it's a family occasion so every year I'd catch it with my relatives. I love it actually. It's always a get-together, feel good day. I laugh at all the comments each year that my cousins and uncles and aunties pass about everything from the performers to marching band and politicians walking out. Brilliant. Something so shallow like that, I think is a tradition and fun thing to do hahaha.
It was quite an emotional NDP for me? I have to admit, I almost teared when all the videos were played. Our history dah dah dah. I know it's all propaganda, but oh how I feel so much for this country! The videos for some reason just really got to me man.
I asked a few of my friends this question today, "What's your favourite NDP song?" It's quite a lame thing to ask, but for every person, a song rings true to their SOUL ok. The oh-so favourite Home is always the number 1 song.
But for me... it's this one.
Corrinne May's vocals are purrrrrfect.
And I just love this song lah.
You know... while on the mrt making my way to NTU yesterday, after reading the newspaper about this year's NDP behind-the-scenes prep, I decided to listen to this song. I was also reminded of it when it was played during this year's NDP.
And as the mrt was making its way from Jurong East to Boon Lay, I saw all the flags, albeit few, hung on all the hdb flats and it was 8:30am and the light from the sun was just perfect as well.. and and and it was just. so. beautiful that I teared!!!! I felt so damn emotional just seeing all of em as the train passed them by and the song ringing in my ears.
I was reminded of how much I really love this country that I live in? So much so that a song like that can even touch me.
Haha, I remember it was JC 2 when this song came out. Everyone hated it, as always, coz it's an NDP song. But I said I liked it! Although quite timidly coz everyone hated it, silent minority.
K, I wanna get a good night's rest and wake up bright and early : ) CHIONG AH. Wish me luck! I will blog about what I do whenever I can!!
