Effects of lunchtime strangers
It's edging towards the mid-year exam, but i still don't feel the tense yet, maybe there are too many things for me to worry about now and exam is the considered the least of them all. As usual, everything will be cramped together. Choir competition, practices, exams, church camps, semester break plannings, etc etc....... How am i supposed to settle all these together ?? I was in the same situation in October last year - Nightingale Nite ( which we only have a month's times to organize ), intensive practices for the International Choral Festival, end-of-semester exams, Sixth form dinner, church leadership camp, etc.... However, miraculously, i managed to settle everything quite well in time. I wonder how i did that ?? This year is totally different. School workload tripling, choir practices getting more and more challenging, frequent skipping of tuition classes.... This very instant, i have an intuition. I'm gonna flunk my exams, miserably.
In spite of constant struggles to catch up with my studies, i'm still happily enjoying life. It's the way it should be, right ? I've been skipping tuitions to attend choir practices (no wonder i failed my maths). I don't really felt bad about that, don't ask me, cos i dont know the answer myself. I'm putting more effort into the choir now. Since we managed through district level, we should put in all force foe state right ? Mr Phang, our 'beloved'headmaster has been extremely supportive (i personally dont know why). He gave the whole choir a treat on pizza (unbelievable !) after the victory in district level, and he's been giving us tonnes of privileges and superiority ! We are allowed to have full use of the new lecture hall (no doubt envied by other societies such as the brass band who've been eyeing on the room since its construction started), we are allowed to borrow books that are not allowed to be borrowed from the library (since we have to sit for exams and practise daily for the state competition), we are even given permission to practise during school hours ( such a thing never happens under Mr Phang's supervision ). He even told the discipline teachers not to reprimand us if they saw us loitering around and skipping classes. Finally, i started appreciate the efforts of the new headmaster, except the extention of shool dismissal to 1.40 pm. So, since there are much expectations, the pressure will be increased. I'm in such a dilemma. If we wins, we pleases everyone and efforts of teachers and seniors are not wasted. But, victory in state means direct advance to national level, which also means that i'm gonna fail my STPM, haha . For now, i'll just focus on the crucial matters, i'll leave the rest to God, for He knows my path ahead and He will guide me through trials and tribulations.
Due to frequent commercials of McD on the papers, my friends and were tempted to have lunch in the fastood outlet. There was change of plans in the end , we headed for Pizza Hut instead, odd isnt it ? It wasnt my problem for sure, i'll have to go wherever the driver takes me.
But the gist of it was that we were caught up vif some unfamiliar 'friend' of a friend of mine. Finally, we were forced to have lunch vif him. We were so uncomfortable with the extra guest and we just wobbled at our express combos quietly. Such a big contrast from usual, where we would scream and shout and giggle and crap all the way. Dat guy is a complete weirdo, i wonder why he'll follow us to lunch. we've only met him once and he even joined us for movie when we first met him ! The irony is that we didnt even invite him ! Jerk ! I could have ate better without a stranger acting as he's an auspicious guest, i wonder why she invited him ??
