long day at work ~
work today (Friday) was pretty hard towards the end of the day. no idea y i culdn concentrate well after lunch. towards the end of the day, a couple of complications made it even harder. but well, difficulties are always present to make us learn as a whole.
at times, i dun wana blame others for giving me some kind of troubles at wrong timings. i jus blame myself for not knowing enough to be able to handle the situation better, by myself.

Choice & Choices
I felt that, along the way of growing up, not only did i have to prepare myself physically, but mentally too.
While we were growing up, i am sure many of us made decisions upon ourselves at times. At certain times, we were not sure whether our choice was a right one.
Three years ago, after getting my 'O' Levels results, i had to ponder which path to head to. My future was a complete blur state to me. I was very sure i am not going for a 9 - 5 job which requires me to sit in front of a computer and "interact" with the computer all the while. I would prefer a job which requires more versatility.
I submitted the form and got posted to Baking & Culinary Science, Temasek Polytechnic, my third choice. I still remember, when i saw the results, i had slightly woke up and just merely checked out that one message that was awaiting me to view. I saw the results and continued to sleep, without much thought.
On the same day, i decided to appeal from the third choice to the fourth choice, which i believed would puzzle many of my friends. Most of them felt that, with my results (which was not superb nor too lousy), i could go into a BETTER polytechnic. However, it was a choice where i felt i could bear the responsibility to in the years to come.
Three years down, I am still in the course which i appealed to, Diploma in Sonic Arts, Republic Polytechnic, third year student, on the verge of graduation in around half a year. I have not regret my decision back then. Yes, i am still a nobody in my area of study, but i haven't been totally ignorant of my choice back then.
Growing up, we had many decisions to make. Growing older, we had to shoulder more responsibilities. Sometimes, we let responsibilities get the better of us and we give up. But, life is really a sum of all choices, for me. Not all choices are perfect. Some of them taught me lessons which made me grow mentally.
In my 19 years of life, it was not totally sweet and nice. In fact, the recent couple of years were not really great for me. There was a year where i lost myself and now i am still in the midst of piecing myself back.
I should not forget that, in any case,
i am living my life,
for no one else,
but for
Myself.

感触良多
Made a trip back to Maris Stella today. It was still great to see those teachers who made a difference in my life back then. Seeing them really made me think back, regardless good or bad, it does not matter to me.
Life in secondary school wasn't superb, but these teachers made it possible. Some things had changed in the school. They had better facilities compared to my time. Every corner of the school where i walked, there were certain flashbacks. How time flies~ Some of the teachers, the first time i saw them was 5 or 6 years ago! Some of them left, which is kind of sad. I still wish them well wherever they go, whatever they are pursuing.
Words just can't describe the feeling that is running inside me. Still, i would like to say a big Thank You to these teachers.
Miss Marianne Png: She offered great help in helping me with Maths, one of my favourite teachers in secondary school.
Miss Lee Shiao Pey: I can't think of any phrase to describe her. She is as amusing as always. HAHA.
Miss Lee Kim Hong: My form teacher for Sec 3 & 4. Did a pretty good job teaching Chemistry.
Mr Low: My Geography teacher who showed us Planet Earth during lessons. One of the most nice and humble person i met.
Mr Chiam: My very first chinese teacher in secondary school. He wrote his chinese words the old school way, top to bottom.
Mr Ng Chor Yam: Maths HOD who did a great job in teaching Maths. It was a pity he only taught us for awhile, but nevertheless, a great teacher in his field.
Mr Tan Hui Kuan: Mr Nice physics teacher. Forever honest looking. Hahahaha.
*Special mention: Mrs Patricia Kong.
Adding on to this, i would like to thank my teachers in Primary School & Poly. Too much names to be mentioned. Sadly, i could not meet all the teachers i mentioned above, hope i will see them outside or something.
Happy Teacher's Day to all great and noble teachers! :)
