Exactly one week ago…

I saw my mum being so proud of me for the first time in my life. She never said it but somehow she showed it. Quite blatantly I guess. She went on to laminate my cert for it to be put into a booklet, have another copy to be placed in a plague and ordered a large-sized photo of me shaking the Director’s hands. (Damn, I should have made an impromptu pose with him.)

It was certainly much more worth it than having a studio shot over at Serangoon Broadway which initially I don’t mind for a once-in-a-lifetime thingy, but the auntie’s hard-selling ticked me off. Sorry auntie, bad customer service = bad impression = no deal!

I felt bad though that she had to take a 45-min bus ride alone all the way from Dover back to Ang Mo Kio. Continue reading →

“Dream what you want to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.”

But fitree says, “Do what you want to do, say what you want to say, but think of others and not only yourself.”

Hahahaha! I’m hysterical. Graduation was so fucking brilliant.

“Today I saw this girl…was in some tube, a 3/4 pants and heels! She looks as if she wanna go clubbing siak! I was walking alone but I can’t help it but to laugh at her… c’mon lah, we’re in school seh!”

Welcome to poly life, Ain. Here the ladies, no we don’t call them girls anymore, wear what the models in posters and magazines don on runways. And the gentlemen, living up to their name, have to be in something not too shabby or insignificant either.

The proposition will argue that it helps boost their self-confidence and self-esteem. The opposition swiftly rebuts the usage of words and confidently substitutes them with ‘ego’.

It’s good that these people exist though ’cause they’re good topics for lunch breaks. It may even be a good substitute for Vitamin A which is mainly needed to maintain a good eyesight.

Bottomline is, we have the opportunity to see them strut their stuff on the streets the school floor. That’s what they secretly wants from us, don’t they?

I’ve seen the play for 3 whole years and I dare say the best actress doesn’t necessarily need to wear the most outlandish clothes. They just there to add more colours to the whole act.

The one with the strongest character and outstanding personality is really the one who adds the much needed depth.

The last, but certainly not the least

“Who says 3 years is short? I was wishing I can prolong my Poly education! Not by forwarding modules of course! I just don’t wanna grow up…”

Last Friday was officially my last day in SP and DMC, and how apt it was to have dinner etiquette at the night itself. It was a DMC day and night. Nobody was in school when we’re the only ones, I think, having proper lessons and at night, the SPGG was conquered by these 90-odd students. And what a farewell it was…

In the end, everything does matters

“For once I admit I miss school. To all of my readers, treasure your time in that academic crib of yours, whatever it may be. Once it’s gone, only memories will be left behind. And I’m feeling the it now.”

Alas we have come to the final two parts of the series! Initially I thought I had the time and opportunity to dish out one post every day but somehow my final piece of assignment got the better of me. My apologies!

Nevertheless, I promise that this 5-part series will be concluded by this weekend! So wait and behold readers!
