Dear Diary,
I am back!! I have a really interesting thought. I was sitting a cab with my brother to my grandmother's house for dinner. It was a long ride so my mind wandered to all the movies I had seen. You know when a person dies, usually his whole life flashes before him eyes. Maybe I had nothing better to do, but what if,What If right now at this very momemnt, we are all abt to die, and like the dying people in the movies, we are given the chance to reflect upon our life just one more time. What if we had already lived our lives and all we are doing now, is looking back. Interesting isnt it? Doesnt it make you want to treasure your life even more? <--- I was thinking abt the Matrix and Armageddon lol.

Anyway, back to where I was. Hmmm Year one of my secondary school life.

I made a promise to myself when I first entered Fairfield Methodist Seconday School. Since I didnt make it to schools like River Valley (HENG I DIDNT), Chinese High (HENG I DIDNT) or ACS(I) <---wasted, AND since I know I had the talents to do better, I decided. Why not PWN everyone here at FMSS?? I first saw FMSS as some neighbourhood, low down, nobody wants to go to school. So I assumed that the people there are mostly stupid stupid one haha. I ASSUMING myself to be smarter than these idiots ( I was young, Please forgive me ) made a VOW, PEK IS GOING TO BE TOP DOG, Numero Uno, Big Papaya, NUMBER ONE! That idea really stayed with me, and sticked in my head for a very long period of time. To be honest, I really chiong, study wise. Maybe I need to give my mother abit of credit here, all that drilling kind of seasoned me for studying. If one day or even a few hours I didnt just take up the book and study, I feel so empty and guilty. The gear was set to automatic and on nitro!! I was determined to be first in class, or even First in the level. But first, there is abt (assumming there are 30 ppl in each class) 59 people I got to step on to reach top. Besides the days when I had Basketball training or Saturdays when I had to go for Boy's brigade, I went straight home and literally buried myself in books. Reading before hand the chapters that were to be thaught a few days later seems FUCKING hard for you to believe now. But seriously, I really did. Homework? All done. Assignments that my mother gave me? Done. LoL if you look at me now, you will probably slap me and call my bluff. Oh well, whatever you want ya?
Tests, exams, my name was always at top 5 if not, top 10. How about Chinese?? hahaha, I was also among the top few, especially in Compositions. I just love to write about those dramatic love stories, maybe the teachers found it cute. I memorised the chinese characters for Spelling and Test like we have to shit everyday.
Science?? My favorite subject, I really liked science (general science), every page theres something new for me to read and know about. Passion is the keyword LOL, Test scores?? Same as above ^^
Geography and History. Both are new subjects to me, but in the end, I ate them for breakfast. Thanks to all the reading I did before the lesson starts, I can understand the teacher better and the lesson just helps to refresh my memory. Test scores?? Same as above ^^
Mathematics?? Are you kidding lol, But seriously my brother did play a big part in my learning of this subject. Throughout the 4 years, my brother helped me alot in maths, sometimes its nice to have an elder brother and since hes just one year my senior, those secondary 1 questions were a breeze to him. Test scores?? Same as above ^^
Literature?? Another new subject to me. I think this is a subject that I really enjoy. After all, whats there to do but just read. The usual Shakespear stories are kind of weird at first, all the "art, thou, thee". After getting used to it, I was on to it. The one story that I love was the Clay Marble. A brillant story based on a Cambodian Post war setting. Truely a marvelous read. I didnt mind reading it again and again until I had no trouble writing out paragraphs of quotes like it was nothing. I regret not taking Lit at upper secondary, lol but oh well, whats done is done ya? Test scores?? Top in class for several Papers, same as above ^^

I know some of you are thinking. Maybe you will throw in some vulgarities here and there about me trying to show off and stuff. But heh, I am proud of my achievements lehz, can let me show off abit?

Riding ahead at full speed, I was unstoppable, I had the exact balance of work and play. You may think that I am a NERD then, all study but no leisure. LOL you are wrong, you forgot that I have Basketball training at least 2 times a week until about 6-7 pm and by time I reached home, It will be about 8-9, depending if me and my team go for dinner at the nearby Dover Road Market. I had Boys Brigade to attend every Saturday from morning to afternoon and on Sundays I meet up with some of my Primary school mates for Basketball in the afternoon near my Grandmother's house. To sum it up, I had a life. Jealous right?? LOL, come on, We all got our UPS right?

Friends? Hahaha I made friends of course, my class of 1C and 2C was alot of fun. We totally own at soccer during the secondary one interclass soccer competition. I was Goalkeeper, and to add to that, CLEAN SHEET ALL THE WAY. I had a few saves here and there, Dives here and there. But most of the time, we were overwhelming our opponents. To such an extend that I had the luxuary to SIT down beside the Goalpost and talk to my Basketball friends while the match was going on. Secondary 2 was a different story, I guess we were to over confident and made mistakes we werent suppose to make. We were 3rd or 4th I think, haha, we all got to lose sometimes right? Otherwise ppl say we dont give face =p
Friends like Joseph, Eu Liang and Charles. LOL we keep joking around, talking about other people all the time. We usually sit around the same area in class, usally the back. We talk all the time, playing a fool. I miss the times we bitch about people, making fun of people. Racist Jokes!! OMG you guys rock.
The girls in my class are SIAO cha bos. I think they got mental problem, they are the Hiao Type. Of course there are the good good ones, I forgot the names. The crazy ones are Hui Hua, Grace, Christie ( shes from my Primary school too ^^) , Yan Wen, Elena etc.
Till today we still keep in touch, going out for dinner once in awhile to catch up. I am fortunate to have known them.

Maybe i will post my secondary one picture, my Camera phone 1.2 megapixal only so ><
Okok I stop here.
Stay tuned for more as I talk about secondary 2!! And what U all been waiting for. I goona talk about her ^^ dont go away ya?
