The mark of a new road ahead. Been a hectic time few weeks before. Finding new residence, Moving things into there, And of course mental preparation for JC. I got posted into NJC. Sounds like something I wanted long ago. But you see, I suddenly realised something. I'm the only one from my school, and most probably all the people from good schools who managed to enrol there are with some of their friends. I was TOTALLY right. So during break, I already expected how I would be. Although I managed to talk one or two of them during orientation period, But during break time they re-grouped to their respective secondary schools. In which I had nowhere to 're-group' at. So I only found a chair somewhere not far from the Hall, and took some nap. Oh, there's an Indonesian there. She's from Cedar Girls [haiz]. Haha I thought I wouldn't find Indonesians in JC, much less in NJC. But hey, she's from a top school after all == Another example is during the H2 Biology Briefing. The only person I talked to was in Arts stream, so forget about him going with me. I went to the venue alone == And I was stranded in the middle of a hive of supranatural-brains. Even as I tried conversing with a guy who seemed to be on his own as well [though I am sure he has some friends from the same school. I confirmed this.], he replied quite succintly. ==' *after the end of Biology briefing* Councillor: If you have briefings about your Arts subjects, please proceed to the respective venues. If not, you are free to go home. Me [to the guy next to me]: Hey, so if we are in Science, we can go home right ? =D Him: Yea, I guess [without looking fully at me] Me: ......... *takes off from the chair* So you see? ==' Somehow I feel they just don't wanna talk to students from normal neighbourhood schools. Snobbish people. But again, that could be a one-sided opinion of mine. They probably are just shy and prefer to stay in their own groupings. But if I think again, they may just be refusing to talk to me. Ok, let's not think further. It was different from when I started secondary school life. On the first day, I met a group of friendly Malay guys who gladly invited me to hang out with them. So there I was, starting with a group of friends already. But these were different. Other than only look like sticking to their own schools, I find that some of them also don't really wanna talk to people. While I found from my friends from other JC which need more cut-off points than NJC, contain very outgoing people. Which is very nice. I used to believe in the opposite, But maybe being a big fish in a small pond is better than being a small fish in a big pond after all. Friends said people will get more sociable soon enough. But really, now I should've chosen being a fish in 'a smaller pond'. NJC is 'one hell of a pond'! And as if this wasn't big enough for me, I'm now stuck between choosing H2 Biology or H2 Physics. If I take up H2 Physics, I'm afraid I can't understand some of the topics. No, MOST of them. Somemore I only get B3. That is also because I worked like hardcore for it during O Level period. I thought H2 Biology would be about human body and etc, something which I like and helped me get my marks in O Level, but it turned out that it's all about molecular genetics, microscopic creatures, and cellular mechanism and etc. Nothing about human organs. These subjects in H2 Biology are actually those that pulled me down during O Level as well. And the teacher mentioned about the requirement: Unlimited Memory. "If you are happy getting A1 in O level Bio, don't. You've yet to be challenged." ..... SOMEONE HELP ME SHOW THE LIGHT! |
