Throwback: Results Day / Catch Up w/ Teammates :D

13 Jan.

The day most of us were scared of was officially over.

It has been 5 days since I received my results! And I've also submitted my JAE :') Before I go deeper into my JAE's life story, let me start with the results day ba!! HAHAHA. (I'll really be typing wtv that happened on that day so that I can revisit the past when I read this post in future. It's for memory sake so bear with me if u want to read on cos I swear it's gonna be grandmother story again hahaha)


So I've received good results and I'm really elated cos I didn't really expect myself to do THAT well!! (Not boasting here ok lol) Porbably one of the best birthday presents I have ever received ;-)

On that very important day or wtv u called it, my heart was palpitating like mad. I was walking around in my house b'cos I just couldn't sit still. Finally, it was time to head to sch! Met up with chia and coincidentally, dino, dx and xr who waited for me with chia. Reached school, saw many many maaany students, heart began to race even faster, legs turned jelly - whatever symptoms you'll see on a student who is panicking and worrying about their results la ok. We (the girls) hugged one another before going up to the hall. At the hall, we became even more panicky, esp. lynn, liann and I HAHA. It was kinda hilarious la now that I think back. Then, we settled down according to register number in rows with the big big screen in front of us. It started later than 2 and then the vice-principal began to have his short speech. Soon after, it was time for the results. The screen showed the names of the students with 7 distinctions and then those with 8 or more. Initially, I couldn't find my name so my heart kinda dropped. But I continued to look out for my friends' one as well!! Hehe, dino (I'm so proud of him!!! Cos a bit unexpected hehe), dx and liann appeared! Liann immediately cried with joy when she saw her name xD Later on, I saw my name!! Omg, I was so happy!!! Then, I continued to glance through and saw lynn and jj's names up there too! Lynn was the next one who cried with joy hehe. Idek how it happened, the 3 of us just went to hug one another since we sat quite close to one another HAHAHA. I bet people sitting behind us judged us but it's okkk. All of us made it to the screen due to our hardwork and I believed we deserve a hug :D Went to collect our results slip after that and I was jumping with joy when I saw my english and hcl hoshit. Not trying to brag or anything, but omg, it was my holy first time getting an A for eng and hcl in my whole freaking life!!! T-T This time, our cohort did pretty well I feel! And, I must say that all of us in the clique did well too!!! Those days where we mugged together, worked hard together, are totally worth it! I've seen some of 'em working extremely hard and it's really heartening to see them crying with joy while receiving the fruit of their labour! :-)

Well for those who didn't do expectedly well/well enuf, it is okay! Now that 5 days are already over, I believe yguys aren't that upset anymore right?? Good then! Move on and focus on what's ahead of you now. I know that said is easier than done but who knows what's planned ahead of you will be so much better than now? Fear not! When one door closes, god will open another one for you - that is if you're willing to stand back up and find more opportunities for yourself! Whatever's done is done. Don't dwell on your past and concentrate on your future! I believe all of us have considered really carefully and submitted our JAE! So it'll be a brand new route for us now. Strive even harder if you do not want to history to repeat itself! :-)

And for all of us, be it JC or poly, it'll be a brand new environment - new school, new teachers, new friends. What's important is to work hard and play hard! I believe everyone's here aiming to go uni so this is another challenge we have to take now! So lets put in our best and welcome the challenges future has installed for us!! Hehehe, all the best and good luck everyone! :-)

Here comes my life story regarding JAE....


I am one who is damn indecisive and can take forever, like literally forever, to decide on one thing. Lets say a simple thing like if I should go run in the morning or evening? Lol. I can take quite long to decide on just that. So I think u can imagine that it's even worse when I was trying to make up my mind on which JC I should go - VJC or MJC. Initally, I didn't expect myself to do that well so I didn't even thought of going to vjc, let alone attending their open house which was before the results day lol.

WHY IS IT BEFORE THE RESULTS DAY AND NOT AFTER, WHY??? T-T 

So at first, I already sort of planned to go mjc b'cos it's near my house and my future house which is at punggol. Later on, when I received my results, vjc just popped out in my head, probably b'cos someone advised me to go there ba.Yes, vjc is good and fun, definitely a better sch than mj academically wise, but then again, it takes me around 1h 20 min (freaking 80 mins) to get there when I move to Punggol which is during my J2... The distance I need to travel played a huge part in making me so extremely stressed out. If vjc is located nearer, like 30mins ride? I DON'T MIND VJ LIKE SERIOUSLY. And with my results, it's kinda wasted to go mjc... SO I DON'T KNOW. But then again, as what my father said, it's not about wasted or not. Rather, it's about if I can study well in the school - if I can't and have to suffer travelling so far, what's the point of going to a good school? Instead, it may be so much better if I go to a nearer school and work hard to maintain in the top few classes/among the top fews to secure the chance of going to a uni! I had been thinking all day, all night since the night on that day I received my results, making me moodless to do anything else - which explains my inactivity these few days. Everyone told me to choose the one I like more but I DON'T KNOW WHICH I LIKE MORE. Both seem the same to me, be it the environment or the people lol. Idk how to differentiate such things. So my mind kept revolving around 'mj or vj, vj or mj' since monday night until thursday night where I finally made my choice. I had been asking a lot of people around me for their opinions (and there was this time I actually considered RJC but put that off quickly cos my friends and myself, feel that I don't suit such an atas school hahahaha) but after all, it all comes back to how I feel or whatsoever. It all comes back to me, ME. But being ME, I don't know. I don't know what I like, what I prefer, what kind of env I will be comfortable in, can I bear with the long travelling time. I don't know. Idek how many times I've answered idk to the qns about the jcs I/my friends asked myself/me - probably zillion times? I'm not even kidding, I don't even know how to choose lol. Maybe if I didn't move to punggol, I would have chosen vj... But J2 is a crucial year and 80 mins ride from punggol is not a joke. I'm not very confident in myself to be able to tahan it, studying till late at night and waking up early in the morning. And most of my friends (and my father apparently) advise me to go mj since it's convenient and I suit mj. But then again, if I love the school, I won't mind. So questions like these revolved around my mind for like 3 days? I WENT CRAZY I SWEAR. I couldn't take it anymore, and there was this rash feeling in me of going to mj so I didn't want to think that much anymore (I think I really think too much lol) and clicked the 'submit' button. Tada, I ended up going MJC. I hope I won't regret my choice... I really hope I don't regret not going to a better school sighs.

Oh well, the choice is made and I'm kinda excited for mj now, esp. the orientation camp!! Since I'm going there with dino and chia as well ;-) Buttt, I haven't decide what subj combi I should take - another decision to make... I HATE MAKING DECISIONS LIKE THIS MAN. H A T E. HATE. T-T Sighs, why so many decisions... They're srsly draining me :-( Sighhhs, 2 weeks + more for me to have serious thought on this!! For now, I shall just relax a bit maybe 1 week more then continue to ponder on it ba :/

Something not that solemn now!! (Heh, sorry for the huge chunk of words up there) Went to have late lunch/dinner with my teammates after collecting our results on that day. At first, we planned to have lunch de but rafizan had not finished her shooting drills yet so she couldn't leave :-( Being her good teammates, we decided to wait for her hahahaha. While waiting for her....


















These pics should be enuf to compensate your boredom while reading what's above just now ba HAHAHA. We (or rather jazz HAHA) spammed a lot of pics and these are just some of 'em hehehe. Headed to Pizza Hut after zan's finished with her trng! :D


Ordered this hehe, it doesn't taste good to me probably b'cos the cheese's quite little and the pasta's a bit hard :-(

So we spent our time at pizza hut eating, chit-chatting and catching up with one another!! Actually, I couldn't remember what exactly we did while eating la but those should be it! I was kinda tired then with my eyes almost closing hahaha. But I remembered that we had lots of laughters - it happens whenever we're tgt!! xD Definitely had a great time with 'em even tho it was just a short period of time! Hopefully, we'll meet up with one another soon? Not sure tho since nat and zan are having school :-( Anyways, I'm glad that our team spirit or wtv u called it is still there even though we hadn't met up together for very long already since idk when! Miss those days where we trained hard together, encouraged one another to persevere on, got scoldings from coach and all... B'cos of yguys, I acutally miss bball trainings :') Really hope that all of us will still be in contact even if we go to different schools and separate ways!!!



 All the best girls!!! Will always be loving and missing you guys! #weisteam ftw ;-)
