Four Days Left.

It's not having what you want.
It's wanting what you've got.

Well, here I am today; hadn't even finished learning three definitions of the chinese test chapters, sore and tired. It's surprising I felt like blogging after like loads of art...(which finally was ALL over today) I handed in my artwork titled 'Remenice' even though it looks nowhere near that.. I bet Shan Hui is going to beat me this round.. I was simply (for the first time) no interested in what I painted. Maybe next year, I wouldn't follow Miss Chua's idea so quickly.

Well, the above phrase you see is adapted from Sheryl Crow's 'Soak Up The Sun'. I've been propoganda-ing it to the people sitting around me... It's a meaningful phrase, I came by it through some christian site. Theoretically, it makes alot of sense, I've been so persistent in making my 'moved-on world' to someone that I forgot the true essence of it all. When it all boils down, I'm still tredding where I stood a few months back. But I gave it all up, and I could grab on to something more worthwhile to do. Next year, I'm going to sign up for volunteering; at least I'm finally doing with my life I've always wanted to :].

I feel that our class, is one of the most united. At least most of us are friends with each other, and I love the way things go out. Hope none of us is going to 4n4 next year, because everyone plays a part. It's not good to cling on only one friend for aid, because who knows - once you've become too independant, your world falls short. I know, because that's what exactly happened before. Sin Teck and Ernest were like comparing how many friends they had on Friendster, and I chided them playfully that it's the quality of friends that matter.

I'm still contented with this busy, hectic life - unable to go home straight four times a school week, managing a few deadlines at once, and still being happy about it. I'm not flaunting or anything... I'm as clueless to life as anyone else, I just try harder to understand it. :)
