Yin and Yang

The past two weeks were pretty rough for me. It was test after test daily because every subject has finished their syllabus. Lectures and tutorials are just small tests and it stressed me out to prepare for them everyday. It doesn't help that my batchmates are going through orientations now too. To be honest, I started a social media cleanse today. I really do need this period of detachment away because I am stressed out by where I am now. The fact that I am a year late is making me discouraged again. I don't need this negativity on top of the acad stress I am already facing hence I decided that I need a social media cleanse for a few weeks.

But of course I am not weak. I have come this far and will not fall down near the end. I will rise back up and conquer this challenge. So to give myself energy, I went to voicebooth on Thursday after school. I decided that I needed a physical outlet and singing is the only way I know how. I sang for one and a half hour by myself and it felt really good. With every high note I belt out, I felt like I was tearing stress away from me. I sang upbeat girl group songs, catchy boy group songs, slow ballads, popular OSTs and whatever I felt like. My mood became brighter and I could tell that I was gaining back the drive. The icing on the cake was yesterday! It became the best day of the term (maybe even year)!!! Initially chem (first block) was cancelled because we had to do MOE QSE survey but turned out that it was actually during our second block which was a break. That meant we swapped our first block as the free block and that chem was cancelled for nothing! WOOHOO!!! J, C and I went down to the canteen and ate breakfast. The survey later on wasn't that bad, long but fun. Then it was GP which tbh was a bit boring and I almost fell asleep. BUTTTT civics was really healing. Wrote a letter to myself 7 months down the road when I am to receive my A level results. Mr Lee's civics lessons are amazing <3 AND ASSEMBLY WAS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED, IN FACT BEST ASSSEMBLY EVER IN MY LIFE!!1 HARVARD'S DINS & TONICS PERFORMED UGHHHHHHH OMGGGG Their performance was lively and funny and amazing as always and managed to catch a group pic + indiv with Gyuwon! They are all so tall and cool and wow???


So my super horrible two weeks of school came to an end with a fantastic end that made everything better ~
