Was a tiring day today.... Had to do up the written report for my project. All is plain sailing though... Just couldn't hand it up tomorrow... which is the dateline by the way.. haha
Anyways, on to my disappointments. I've always said to my friends, the ones that know me anyways, that going into a Junior College is the BIGGEST mistake of my life. Here's the story. I've graduated from secondary school with good O level results. Confident and cocky, i weighed in my options. I was interested in the School of Film and Media Studies back at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. So i registered myself, and I managed to get selected to sit in their written exams. Here's the thing. For one, my best friend, whom i planned to go into the school together, failed his maths. So he couldn't go in to the school. He opted to go for a Junior College, so I followed my heart instead. Went through the same school system as he is. This plus the fact that the results for the written exam is delayed due to SARS, prompted me to stay on. Besides, I have already bought the uniforms and text books.
Then I went through the worst time in my life, academics wise that is. I found out the system is so not for me, and I just cruised through semester after another. Lucky thing I managed to obtain a full certificate for my 'efforts', haha... but seriously, what was i thinking?!?!?! What happened to my best friend took precedence over my decisions. And I paid for it.
However, that decision started my best belief that anyone could have, and that is: No matter what decisions you make, there's always a blessing in disguise. Well, here's a few:
1) I got to play the game of Rugby, and I fell in love with it. Missed playing the game the moment I stopped playing it cos I have to go through A Levels. I mean... if rugby is a girl, I would've married her on the spot.
2) I got to know lots of frens, the hot babes, the cool dudes, and the ones which you can hang around with. Had lots of fun then, helped me cruise through the 2 years i've been in there.
3) Lastly, fell in love with this girl. Never had that feeling before. Thing is, I thought she was into me first!!! Haha... so because of that, I got close to her. Then I found out that she thought I was into her, and because of that, got close to me. Funny story that one. How it ended is another story on another day.
Anyways, since that infamous decision, I always live my life having the belief that whatever it is, there's always a blessing in disguised. Lesson Leart....
