A few days ago, I wanted to blog about the topic of family. Is modern day life threatening the existence of family? But i decided to do it next time, when I'm free-er.
Today was post Orientation 1.
Really had a great time and how I wish every day could be like that-carefree. I feel that the OGLs really did a wonderful job,both in O1 and Post O1, i cannot really put my thoughts into words, but i feel good interacting with them. O1 really widen up my social circle and it feels good to walk around in school and out of nowhere, someone appear in front of you and simply give you a smile, a wave, a hi, a bye. heh.
You know, though I've always wanted to be in the top 5 JCs, today, something in PJC touched me. As I was singing the school song, i felt a sudden flow of emotions, the sense of belonging and pride. The Pioneer Spirit. I feel proud to be a Pioneer. <3> As we walked out of school, heading for supper, some of us
started singing the council song
Today is the day, We've taken our
place, it's special beyond words can say
A change of lifetime, a gift that
life bless us with;
The road will be rough and times will be tough
But
together we stand as one
We put our will in one voice, and move off in a
heart
And together we'll see it, through till the end;
It's been like eons since someone sang this song, it really brought back many beautiful memories. How we started as individual elects,coming together to form a council. How we hated and gossiped about each other ( though now we still bitch about one another, but like wad Jeremy said, as long as, at the end of the day, we can till eat at one table, it's already a blessing)
So stand up right, today we are stars,together we'll shine
and never give up
This passion burns with an unceased fire,no matter how
tough we're there to face
Cause we've made up our minds, the path we're gonna
take
to rise above;
for the CALLING TO SERVE
Council is special.
Talking about council, I've two new attachees : Jun Jia and Shu Yi, I believed they are all potential councilors, leaders in the making. Unpolished jewel! haha Great to know both of them!!
After supper, headed home with Yang Yi, talked a little bit along our way but he had to make a move first as his dad came and fetch him.
Then suddenly, i felt very lonely and cold. I felt lost.
I could hear the silence, my own breathing and my mind was racing with time. Thought about many things, how my past years have been. Ever since I received Christ 4 years ago, looking at my life now, everything seems to irrelevant,so far,basically, it's history. I remembered my secondary days,my classmates, my prefects,my teachers. S11 came into my mind, how silly we were back in J1 etc etc..
I missed the bus.
I was left alone at the bus stop for half an hour. I sought solitude and found it. I do enjoy nights alone. just me,myself and I. I believe it is where self-reflection can take place, it is the time when we really start thinking and using our brain cells. It is when, we can seek the inner voice and look into our soul. It is when you let your mind loose, absorbing all the sounds and sights of the night. It is the time when you can relax your mind. It is where you find yourself.
You know, I'm still contemplating if I should join Jamie's OG tmr for an outing. My pile of homework is yelling at me,literally. I know that if I don't complete, there goes the rest of the month. On the other hand, I feel that I should, as a clan master, show face, but more importantly, I wish to interact with the J1s and the OGLs, i want to make more friends =D and i go wish to see ImH.heh!! but..i know...there should be a limit to everything...grrr...afterall,books are still my best friends =D
