california rest in peace

I was clearing my shelves a few days earlier and guess what I've uncovered:

Yup, here's the old ncc stuff i stockpiled over the years. Some stuff is still missing and the uniform has long been chucked away into another desolate corner of my cupboard. But nevertheless, my days in ncc have thought me several good virtues, namely: punctuality, neatness, discipline and respect for authority. Though this uniform group is really a bit screwed up, it does have its pros. But I still won't recommend it to any sec 1.




This is what is left of my cat high uniform. 2 buttons are missing and several rings have been borrowed by my younger brother. I repolished the badge and name tag for this shoot. Sometimes I wonder why my batch was given green name tags. If you ask me, I would have prefered red tags because they look cooler yup.








I also managed to dig up about 20 RJC badges. Here, my only RI badge rests in a "sea" of RJC badges. Personally I prefer the RI badge because the RJC one looks too tall and bulky. THe RI one is small and compact, which makes it easier to pin onto my uniform.

I've mugged everything for A levels last year...

zzzzzzzzz...

All this clearing and diggind up of old class photos made me think of the time when I came into RI last year. I was a freshman while the others were all veterans of RI lifestyle. I came in with no idea who everyone was and I felt that I had to start all over again. I left Cat high with all my friends behind. The people around me had already organized themselves into their various lower sec cliques and I was left alone in the bus to obs with everyone around me joking about their lower sec lives. Apart from that, I had to catch up with the rest of them as they had been given assignments to do during the holidays which I had no idea about. I struggled trying to fit in, finally finding company with some ex-2h people and bonded with some 4h-ians as well. I'm just glad to have survived the ordeal of starting over again.

Okay i hope my blog is becoming a bit more interesting haha.

The end of an era

So, I've finally graduated from RI and sec school. I don't really feel like putting all my thoughts on paper so I'll just let the pics speak for themselves.








Here's a photo of me and boy receiving our certs.











This is a 2h and 4h photo. Jeremy looks damn stone lol.













A photo taken with random people.














Doing weights with aaron teoh. He's a bit heavier, after cramming himself with the refreshments from the reception.













A snapshot with heng and baba noel.













Here's a photo I took with my cousin and family








Yup, I would like to say that my years in RI have been very memorable. I think I'll talk more about it in the next post, cost my elder bro wants to play com now.

30 October:
I guess what's done is done, no point looking back now... those hours I spent mugging sec 1 to sec 4 stuff went to waste and i spotted the compo question wrongly. But I did put up a good fight nonetheless, the results I shall leave to God.

The only thing I fear now is that my results would not meet my tuition teacher's expectations lol. She expects me to get an A2 at least and she always tells me about my cousin's achievements and it seriously pisses me off lol. I hate it when people always compare me to other people and tell me how good other people are, it crushes my already fragile ego.

I really look down on myself. I do not think the talents I have are worth anything. I'm jealous of many people. I'm sensitive but I prefer to keep stuff to myself. I fade out during social gatherings. People around me talk about stuff I have faintly no idea about, simple because I wasn't a part of their class 2 years ago.

And lol I really have to say this: I REALLY DETEST LATECOMING.
People tell you to come at 6.30 and you bloody-hell come at 8 plus. WTH not everybody has the time to wait for you so you better be punctual. If you come 15 minutes late I can still understand but 1 hour late??? It's not that I don't have patience, it's about COURTESY! What picture are you sending out to everyone when you report 1 hour late? It hints that you aren't interested to come! If you're really keen on the dinner then you would have come at least 5 minutes earlier! I tell you, keep that late-coming habit and you will die in the army. I can promise you that.

Yup, I know I have lashed out strongly at some people just now. It's not in my nature to lash out at people, especially at friends, but when I do, it's because I want to drive a point to them. This is something I have kept to myself for some time but I think its time they really changed for the better.
