New school. New teachers. New subjects. New friends. Everything is new, new, new. As the saying goes, "the only thing constant in life is change". How paradoxical haha. I'm a person who is least in favour with change, although I have no choice but to accept the ongoing changes in my life. If only everything in my life could remain constant, then I would be so comfortable with my life. However, change takes life to a whole new level. People are able to experience new things, make new accquaintances and if life were to be constant without change, everyone would be living the life of an infant if we were to consider changes from the day one is born. Even so, there would not be any other human left on Earth as there would be no change, thus humans cannot reproduce either lol. Ok, I didn't want to go so far but if we take things to the extreme, life would be like that.
Anyway, I introduced my entry with the topic on change because I'm currently in a new phase of my life. How I wish school would be another SR, just that we learn new subjects and study more challenging material. How I seek the familiarity of the SR environment, it's teachers and most importantly, my friends. I constantly reminisce the good times spent in SR with all the lovely people around me. It was also that same school which enabled me to meet my baby :) Currently, I've just started school at SIM. There was an enrolment talk on Tuesday, Orientation on Wednesday and Preparatory Workshops on Thursday and Friday. Well, I did make some new friends, especially during Orientation and we quickly formed a clique 0.0 When we were supposedly separated as we were allocated different Orientation groups, we even secretly switched groups with other people in order to be in the same group with one another haha =x A clique of 4 but because only 3 of us are in the 'Option A' course which comprises of further mathematics and statistics, while my other friend is in the 'Option B' course which substitutes those Math Units for Business Management, we are now reduced to the 3 of us. Frankly I prefer even numbered cliques so it prevents 1 member from being left out, but ironically I've been in 3-membered cliques since Secondary school 0.0. In Secondary School, my major clique comprised of myself, Candice and Keet, while in JC, my major clique comprised of myself, Sok and Audrey haha. Right now it's down to myself, Florenece and Jiaying as Victoria has been separated from us. I don't know how long my current clique will last as we've not been allocated our tutorial groups yet. Once we start tutorials which is in 1 week, I'll most probably have to make new friends again if Florence and Jiaying are not in my tutorial group. I prefer familiarity, where I feel comfortable with my surroundings. SIGHS. I've yet to meet Sok and Audrey and Yvonne! Hope to meet them in school soon...
Had an introduction of some of the units I will be taking for the course. So far I have some complaints with regards to each lecture I've attended =x First one was Math. I couldn't really catch the lecturer as his British accent was strong and his voice was soft and he spoke really fast! He also didn't really bother about the noise level which greatly disrupted my concentration. Next, Principles of Accounting. The lecturer was good. However, the students were too spontaneous and that really stressed me out! I was sighing throughout the lecture and felt so stressed as I couldn't really grasp the topic. When the lecturer said she would pick those in black to present their answers for the exercises we were supposed to do, I hurriedly removed my black jacket and put on baby's grey jacket to cover my black tank top in order not to be picked -.- Lastly, Economics. The lecture started late due to the mic being spoilt and insufficient lecture notes. The lecturer was also good and a little humorous but he was speaking a little too slowly and he kept repeating his points so it made the whole lecture seem unbearable. Thank God for my relatively long attention span as I managed to survive 2 over hours of lecture by focusing and only spaced out towards the end =x I must really get used to 3 hour lectures haha. Presently I feel like I'm living in a dream as I can't really "feel" myself. I just drag myself to school every morning and come home zombified. I don't look forward to the next day, I just behave as a machine, completing my tasks at hand. School life with baby feels different from JC life and honestly speaking, I don't really like how my life is right now. If only I could remain in JC, living my sweet JC life with my baby and oh, CCA. I totally forgot about CCA. I'm currently not involved in any CCA although I feel like participating in one. However, I yearn for shooting more. I miss shooting so so much but I know I can never shoot again... Anyway, that's life for me right now. Shall blog again when I have the time. God bless all of you and Jesus loves you all.
