So yesterday was supposed to be Racial Harmony Day and we were supposed to be wearing ethnic costumes. I say supposed because eventually so few people did. Amazing how funnily different I apparently look wearing a punjabi suit. And how much you get judged xD
I was telling myself “It’ll all be okay when you get to Marymount. There’ll be more people!” Oh how right I was. I was like the only person standing on the platform, wearing anything. Okay that sounds completely wrong. Like my tweet yesterday ;) But yes, as I was saying. BEST part was following that Jo, Ming E, Tiancheng and Elyssa didn’t even recognize me HAHAHA. Then of course there were all the “ridiculous” comparisons to Ms Veera. See that’s as cynical as I can possibly get. HOW am I like her? xD She’s so awesomely cynically-funny. Thankfully Brandon didn’t pangseh me and showed up in this kinda strong canvased yukata-like jap outfit and all of us were like whoaaa. xD
We started the day off with Civics which was just so epicly funny. We all spent so much of it, just laughing. I felt so super thankful for such an awesome CT in Mr Cheong and for such hilarious classmates, that you can share a joke or a laugh with.
CLASS LUNCH WAS SO FUN. Starting with the fact that
we had to walk around Marymount and J8 getting MAJORLY judged, especially poor him hahaha :) Swagger walking xDBut there were so many moments yesterday when I just felt like I wished I could capture every single moment of all of this on film, just so I’d be able to hold on to moments like these forever. (We didn’t even take one picture though, sadly :( ) I felt so blessed and thankful for a class with such beautiful people and it was really the happiest I’ve been in ages. And just sitting there and laughing with everyone made me forget about all the crap that was going on. Words aren’t enough to describe how happy and hyper I was yesterday. Laughter really is the best medicine, for fatigue, for heartbreak. Love is the only thing that can possibly make up for all the tears you’ve shed. And I’m so so thankful for 3K. I Thank God for them every day, and I pray that they’re happy at every waking moment of thier lives, that they never have to endure sadness, that they have the courage and the perseverance to make it big in life, that we all have more lovely memories together.
More than anybody else in my life right now they are the people holding me together, making sure I don’t fall apart, and even if I do, they’re the ones I run to, whine to, cry to. They’re the unwavering glimmer of hope in my life, the sole candle burning in this dark empty room, but the beauty and the brightness is enough to last a lifetime. OKAY enough emo-ness.
Went to go crash PAC and watch the streeters tech run for Saturday after school :) It was really so amazing to watch them have so much fun laughing and goofing around and bodywaving and of course dancing. And I really felt their genuine passion for performing. I mean it takes us a competition or a performance or a incentive of some sort to achieve that mindset. But it’s just so beautiful to see people who are so involved in what they do. They have fun, they express themselves and they enjoy what they do. I mean it’s art, you as the performer have this honor and purpose of performing for your audience. It is only when the audience enjoys it that you may feel satisfied and happy, and you enjoy yourself. It’s really a reverberating relationship where emotions and enjoyment bounce off both parties. But I guess sometimes the situation doesn’t fully execute itself. Sighs… Ohwells I was thankful to be able to watch them anyway! The high spirits are mildly contagious, dare I say, although I know like 2 people.
Then after which I had to go for Math Tuition ._. Ohwells! It was fun enough chionging to J8 to print photos before that! Which reminds me, I need to fully utilize Tumblr’s pretty pictures :)) And of course during Math Tuition, I felt so thankful yet again for having friends who are so willing to share their knowledge and help out with what may seem like the simplest things, like Math. Not many people would be so generous. He’d probably never see this but OMG f’(x) graphs = skateboarding. MINDBLOWN. Toru Kumon needs to scoot over. The world needs like the Brandon Yeo Method (Y)
