So, right. School's out for 2 weeks. ;)

YESSS.. No more worrying about schoolwork, school exams, people at school and their weird atitudes, shetty teachers which particularly involves this lady in the mathematics department with pants pulled up HIGHIGHHIGH - I'm surprised you can still breathe and I'm sure your fashion statements are going to become worldwide trends, just hopefully not in my lifetime.. =S But YAYY WE HAVE DENNEHY BACK NEXT TERM =D.

Freaking hell it's like term 2 gone. Looking back, this term has been .. hectik? in a not-so-good kinda way. Everything is so fkn fast-paced now, and everything seems to be going towards work and the need to succeed. But so what sometimes. Who cares if you're the top 1 percent in the school, aceing every bloody exam that comes in your way. You still end up a skinny twig with Harry Potter glasses, arched back, a stonned look and a walking pace of 0.00000000001km/hr.

So then when you're 21, single and desperately looking for a job, NO ONE WILL HIRE YOU because you take one look at that person and you know that they're not clever, only nerdy.

Yeah I know I'm being judgemental, but I cannot seriously tell me that, if you're a director of a big company ( Hi, I'm Betty, director of Magma Clothing Industires and I'm here to promote my own label .. - extract from stupid VD speech == ) you will employ workers like that.

So then, all the hours spent on tutoring and additional homework, studying for yearlies in the month of June and countless hours mastering the skill of calculator texting is wasted, and in the end does not guarantee success at all. So just because you sit at the front two rows at Recognition, does not make you any more lively than the back two rows.

Mm.. jst something to think about .. inspired by the convo with my dad after Rec Assembly. (not exact quotes as some part of the convo are in chinese)

Dad: Hahahahhah I saw _______ getting an award today.
Me: *snorts* lol right I see..
Dad: LOL as soon as he walked onto the stage I started cracking up like hell. The glasses and the way he walks HAHAHAHHA you take one look at him and you know he's a ___ nerd.
Me: HAHAHAHHAH I KNOW AY I STARTED LAUGHING TOO.
Dad: haha omg I swear Betty, don't become like that kind of person..that looks like the only thing you know how to do is to read books. Looks so stonned and like he's never played a sport in his life.. so sad so sad.

Dad: were the seats ordered for Rec?
Me: mm yeah, first two rows are award people..
Dad: lol no wonder.. the people sitting with you seemed really .. =\
Me: lol silent? non talkative?
Dad: yeah the back rows seemed more lively and enthusiastic.. sometimes it's hard you know, you want to be a bit of both.. I think it's important to find the balance between both sides.

Oh and regarding the Rec performance - I'm glad we did it. Yeah sure, you can go and say it was shyt, say we were out of tune, say 'wtf' throughout the entire thing, but it was fun and I truly felt happy when I was up there yknow? And it's weird cos I really dnt get amused easily these days and school is starting to wear me out .. both physically and emotionally sometimes. For like the past two weeks the first thing people would say to me is "Betty you look tired.. " >< Maybe this is exactly what I need..

My Beautiful Rescue..
