Synyster Gates is AMAZING. One of the best guitarists everr (next to Slash ofcourse :D)I can listen to his guitar solos all day.
A7X's new album is out and I was listening to 'Nightmare' and 'Welcome to the family' and it made me realise how much I miss Syn Gates and A7X. A7X FTW!
Okay now I am gonna write about AC Baccalureate. I know I didn't blog on the same day but I was supposed. Was feeling too lazy to do so. So here I am (almost a week later) blogging about Graduation from schooling (for real.)
It was the last day of being a school kid. I mean it is university from next year and we won't be wearing uniforms or anything of that sort anymore. So it is quite a significant day in our lives.
And I thought it was really meaningful. We sang a number of songs. And for once, everyone sang the school song really, really loudly. I mean it is probably the LAST time we'd ever sing the school song together..so why not sing it as loudly as we can? :P And it was pretty emotional..the principal's speech etc. I would miss hearing them say 'To God be the Glory, The Best is Yet to Be.' And I loved all the sharings by the teachers. This is not the end..it is the start of something bigger :D
After Graduation, took loads of pictures with friends, classmates..everyone. It was like frenzy..going around with your camera and capturing every possible moment you can because you don't know if you'd ever get the chance to do so again. Then, went for class outing to Sentosa. It was really fun. We cycled for almost two hours and took loads of pictures as a class. It was probably our most successful class outing everr!! Then we played in the sand..took pictures..chit chatted before calling it a day.
I loved these two years at AC. I think it encompassed both the best and worst years of life. Best..because it was so,so fun and I managed to do some pretty cool things through my CCA. I mean..I would have NEVER thought that I would have ended up in Drama..but it turned out to be really fun. All the dressing room times..all the lame jokes. I really enjoyed myself getting to know everyone. And my class..was one of a kind. We were a kinda divided due to cliques..but we never gave a cold shoulder to one another..we still managed to bond as friends. And we had a number of successful class outings! And they would always be memory :D
And it was the worst because of the academic pursuits..and the burden of all the tutorials and homework. The JC curriculum was really different from secondary school. In secondary school, you could study the day before and at least get a C or B for tests. But in JC, you could spend so much time studying and yet could flunk so badly. It was really a challenge juggling the long hours at drama during productions with the work load from lessons. And also the fact that we had longer days..we had days where we ended lessons at 4:30pm and we would have rehearsals till 9pm. And after reaching home and eating dinner, we would have to do our homework. Sometimes, I would succumb to my tiredness and promise myself to wake up later to do my work..but usually, I'd never be able to wake up after going to sleep. And you really learn to value sleep in JC. Even if you might have had 5-7 hours of sleep (which is supposed to be a luxury) you might still be a walking zombie the next day. And ofcourse, trying to stay awake during lectures and tutorials. Pigging out at the canteen during our uber long breaks. Socialising with the others at the void deck. Or sometimes we'd just remain in the library trying to finish unfinished homework for the lessons later that day. Or sometimes we would jus wind down at the cushion-y sofas at the library cause we are jus to exhausted to work anymore.
I think AC has taught me many things. I had loads of fun working with the peeps for Odyssey, CMC, AYLI and NOL. And also the classmates and CCA mates for Fun-o-rama. And of course..the super fun SBS sessions during CMC. I really enjoyed my time here.
NJC didn't want me even though I met their cut. Oh well. It's okay. AC gave me a great time..2 years that I would always remember and cherish. And great friendships built that would last a lifetime. I wouldn't trade these 2 years for anything else. I had fun. It was great. I learnt priceless lessons..through mistakes and through advices. And I will always remember them. Don't be sad that it has ended. Be glad that it happened :D This is not the end. It is merely a beginning of what is to come and the beginning of the next chapter in our lives.
Maybe sometime later when we gather at AC for Founder's day or smthg..we can go to our beloved 4.07AC classroom and reminiscene the times that we had there. Sing ACS Forever <3
And all the great times..and sad times that we had here. I will always, always remember them.
It's always hard to leave..but we will see each other soon :D
Now, it's time to get back to studying and all those coveted As for A's!! :D
To God Be the Glory. The Best is Yet to Be.
