Celebrated Yedi's birthday last sunday. Although birthday is meant to be a day of celebration and joy, I can distinctively feel an atmosphere of depression around me while we were eating dinner. Of course, most of it came from Yedi himself, who openly declared that it was the worst birthday he ever had. He was trying to drown himself by drinking 1 bottle of red wine and 2 bottles of beer and poor Rong Bing had to accompany him in his binge on alcohol.
But, I guess for most of us, this period of time is rather filled with sadness. We just got back our first common test result and I presume that the majority of us will not be happy with our results. I failed my first test in a long time, and I was disgusted with the rest of my results too. AABDS is not exactly a score that I was hoping to get. However, like what Mr. Hodge had said today, we should treat this as a wake up call, and work harder for the rest of the tests. After all, there is still promos in 2 months time and A-levels in 14 months time. So, we must not slacken but work harder to achieve good results for A-levels.
On the other hand, I can't stop feeling a sense of anticipation for tomorrow's class adventure camp. It must be my adrenaline working again. Although I had heard many horrendous stories about the Pulau Ubin site where obviously, all the water that come out from the tap has this lemon tea colour and that you must either suffer from mosquito bites or having houseflies circling above your head, I still think that class adventure camp will be very fun. Imagine 1 night playing bridge or taitee for x number of hours continously, or throwing a frisbee around with Jabez and Gabriel. Woot. Can't wait for tomorrow! (of course, another benefit is that we can skip school for 2 days)
