Finally found the urge to blog and I realised that I have loads to blog about.

Ass week just ended not too long ago and though I had done well for a few subjects, I'm totally disappointed with my sciences. Chem and Bio paper were both C+s, and this isnt the first time I've gotten such a grade for assessment papers for the same subjects. And guess what, I'm probably gonna take them next year.. I think. Ironic how the worst 2 papers are what I'll be taking.. Chem is a definite. Bio.. Not so sure. I dont know how to view the crap grades. I studied for both subjects, though probably not as much as some people, but I actually went into the exam feeling confident, but ended up taking two mouthfuls of my pride. Is that a sign of complacency orr a timely awakening that i really am not meant for sciences?

But you know what they say, it ain't all about the grades. But it's hard to ignore the fact that my chem and bio sucks, and perhaps an ambition is too premature for such an age, or its just my inability to focus. Well, I'll just stick around and work hard till I gain enlightenment. Hopefully I wont be just saying that.

Well anyway, grades are dead stuff. Probably bring us some momentary goodness, and on other cases, longer doses of pain. But after all, its the process that counts, and that I agree. Which brings me to 03.

In all honesty, there's alot of animosity in this class. Which could be regrettable, for what a wonderful class this would make if peace were all abound. But i guess, this class wouldn't be the very same o5ipo3 without the squabblings and the "Jason you suck la!", a few screwed up hormones and i guess the tears that we've shed in and outside the class. I still wish that we would all be more honest with one another, and hopefully treat each other with true respect and like another family member(This I learnt from chao ping, whom i will talk about later).

Well one thing which I think we can all be happy about is that I think this year, the class is a little more bonded than last year and hopefully, if this trend continues, we'll all be one big family by the end of 4 years :D Haha. There are alot of friendships in the class which will be cherished and remembered for years to come but I think that the thing that I'll miss most about the class is the presentations. Frankly, we do presentations unlike any other, erm, no thanks to me though cause I kinda suck at ppt haha. And come to think of it, I think the person that I admire most in the class is wendy. Her work rate and creativity are phenomenal and the thing is that whenever you are in her group, you just know that you are gonna do so well even before work begins. But its not just that. Alot of people can have high work rate and creativity, but its very rare to see somebody with that and not obsessive with grades. I think she wants high grades too but I think it's her ability to accept grades and her humility that seperates her from the rest of the cohort. Also, she's athletic and probably the only 150er who can jump so high. hahahahaha. And who can say that they dislike her? I don't think anyone in the class does. Probably all of us have alot of respect for her. Haha all the best wendy.

Well.. Think it was only this year that we discovered our other forte.. PE! Again, nobody does PE like 03! We missed last year's IP cup by abit, were determined to get it this year and we got it:D Captain's ball during PE will always be great fun because it's a sport that all can play and nobody really knows who will win so everybody shows that fighting spirit. The girls know they can beat the guys on the other team, albeit Jason's wonderful smacking. Ohwell, at least we'll still be doing PE together next year so that's just great:D haha

Anw, there's still the chalet to look forward to! Events like that will come and go, and so will our past two years, but i hope that the memories will stay on forever. Which is also why I really hope the chalet will be a blast!

So I guess even though we'll be missing each other's company for most of the time next year, since our subject combi would vary, but hopefully we'll continue making progress with our class and keep the o3 spirit alive!

I know that we'll have less time for each other, but absence makes the heart grow fonder right? And I guess that'll just mean more notebooks:P

On a more recent note, training has resumed, which is great haha. The team is feeling more like a team and not individuals and I really felt the warmth that night when we huddled together in a tight circle. EngPing's speech about honesty in the team and acceptance for one another really opened the team's hearts. I strongly believe that in time, we will become a closely bonded team which has no secrets and who will play for one another. And i must start learning how to play for my teammates and rely on each other in the game because playing as a team is much better than playing for a team. Its the team that truly matters in the end and not the individual. That I must remember.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the Malaysia Trip, not only because we get to play competitive games against strong teams but also I know that these trips have never failed to bond the team closer. This time it'll be a 6 or 7 days trip which entails 3 states so i think it'll be even more amazing. And I wanna thank ep, if you are reading, for your whole hearted commitment to the team and passion for the sport. It has motivated me and I appreciate all that you've done.

It has been a long post. Goodnight.
