My Life in College

This is my very first blog I have, and this's the first time I'm writing in it. But I'll probably not update it so often, cos i'm pretty lazy.

Today's a great day! I'm "supposedly sick" today, so i'm staying in. Woke up in the morning, feeling really tired, and didn't feel like going to school. I'm surprised mom allowed me to skip school. Mom, u're the best! Well, sometimes.

School's been great so far. I'm enjoying myself tremendously! Slacking - That's what I'm doing most of the time. It's been a long time since I've last done my tutorials. "16's greater than x..." Now, what's that? I've got totally no clue about what the teacher's been yakking on and on about in lectures and tutorials. My grades are falling - I flunked my first physics test of the year (Luckily, i'm not the worst!), and I barely pass my math test. At least there's some consolation in knowing that I've never been good in these subjects.

Canoeing's been awesome. But it's taking up alot of my time. We have land trainings on Mondays and Thursdays, and sea trainings on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The Jc1s are split into batches, so we'll most likely only go for sea training once a week. That really sucks, cos I love the sea trainings most.

Land trainings are tough though. We do circuits every training - push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, dips, leg raises.. Through the trainings, I've realised that I've become stronger, both physically and mentally. It's all in the mind - that's what the seniors always say. I've just gotta endure!

Sea trainings are the best! Partly cos I hate running. I can't run long distance (Is 2 km considered long?)! I'm just not the stamina type of person. Anyway, I've got to try the K1 last week. I've already got problems handling the T1, not to mention the K1. It was super-unstable. Just getting into the boat was a major problem. I've capsized twice even before I started paddling. It was a hell lot of fun! For the record, I've fallen down twice at kallang, all thanks to the slippery stairs there!

I love my class (1S13)! My class rocks! Well, according to our gp teacher, our class's on the blacklist. We are also one of 3 classes who got blacklisted for punctuality. My class is mostly guys, with only 9 girls. The girls are a pretty close bunch, with the exception of 2 "outcasts". Grace, Liling, Sijia, Xuezhen, me and sometimes, Suen, make up a clique. We hang out at Heartland Mall (That's probably one of the most boring mall I've ever been!), Compass Point, Plaza Singapure. It's surprising how close we've gotten after just 2 1/2 months. It's gonna be hard to say goodbye to such a fantastic class in March.

I think my closest friend in college is Xuezhen. I can still remember how I couldn't remember her name even after 1 week. Anyway, we sit the same bus to school, and sometimes the same bus home. We can talk about guys, school and just, life. Anyway, I've realised how bad my memory is after the freshmen orientation. I can't remember names nor faces, even after a few days. That's pretty bad!

There's a rumour going round the class that I like another guy in our class - Chuen Long. That's totally ridiculous! I swear I don't like him, not in the past, not now. Well, I don't know about the future though. I can't read my future. Grace, Xuezhen and Sijia are doing a great job as matchmakers. But it kinda made the whole situation a little awkward. But, looking back, was it me who started this misunderstanding? I really don't think so. I only said that he was nice guy, and that he woke me up when I was on the bus one morning. I guess they read too much into it. I didn't mean anything.

Results will be out in a week. Or at least, that's what everyone says. I hope my results aren't too bad. I wanna qualify for jc, so that I'll have more choices. Perhaps, I'll go back to Srjc. I'm beginning to like it there.
