You know, I didn't even know that last week was the last week of lessons for our J2 seniors. So when Andai was saying how he got bonded instead when he wanted to say goodbye to Poon, it suddenly dawned on me why the number of class photo-takings and videos of "last PE lessons" uploaded to facebook jumped so much in that week. Life seems filled with farewells these days, boo. And now I kinda feel bad for not spending more time with our great seniors in the mere six months with their company, all along thinking that I'd still be seeing them around school till the end of the year. Well, at least this probably won't be the last we see of them, 'cos I certainly wouldn't want to suddenly be never meeting them again like that after taking for granted that they'd be in the campus somewhere every day. Very soon - just one more year to be exact - it'll be our turn too. The pace of life for us is starting to pick up exponentially, and I just can't help but keep getting reminded that this chapter is going to be over soon. Secondary school life was really lax and pretty much still floating by, but now JC life is practically whizzing past us. And that would pretty much be the end of our teenage years, and then there's NS and uni and work and work and babies and naggy wives aaaaahhhhh ...Okay, I think let's not think too far into the future yet. Anyway, as cliche and oft-repeated as this is, we should be treasuring this last couple of years so we can leave with no regrets. In fact, at the start of orientation, I was telling myself that I wanted to make the best out of the next two years and really go all out and enjoy myself, but now it seems we have even less time than that. I'll certainly miss being a student at the end of this, but I won't go so far as to say I'll miss lectures and lessons all that much - I'll probably still be dozing off in Chem lectures, that's for sure - but more of the honest company and the friends I've had the privilege of bonding with (though the same can't be said for being bonded by). But hey, at least the school's gonna get much less crowded from now on. And we get to invade our senior's class bench as well, so we might actually be able to fit the whole class on the class benches in the mornings now. (Okay, maybe except Goodbye, seniors. And don't feel too bad Andai, taking (someone else's) clothes off is our senior class's way of bidding farewell. D: |
