time is waiting

It’s amazing how fast time flies. This past week has just rocketed by and I hardly had a breather. The combination of tuition, training, council and driving is really taking a toll, so much so that I had to reject all invitations to hang out with my friends. This week alone, I had no choice but to politely decline on no less than 3 occasions ,all with a heavy heart. So before Monday comes and the viscous cycle starts all over again, I shall enjoy whatever free time that I have in the weekends.

Anyway, yesterday I was talking to one of the freshies and we were talking about secondary schools.

Me : So which secondary school do you think I’m from?

Freshie : You look like you're from an all-boys school.

Me : Oh how do you know that?

Freshie : Because you don’t look like you’re from RI. (Ah thanks that means I don’t look smart) and you’re not the kind from ACS (this can mean a lot of things). So you must be from SJI.

Somehow, I was actually beaming with glee and pride when she said that. I guess I was pleasantly surprised that she could associate me to SJI based on first impressions and conversations. I tried to convince her I was from Chinese High but for some reason, she refused to believe me. Baik ah aku Josephian. ORA ET LABORA.

Or for Faliq’s sake, SERVE GROW EXCEL.
