Hey there, peeps.I'm back again.Here to update about my CCA Camp which took place yesterday. It finally ended. All our plannings came to an end. It wasn't a good start afterall. It was raining so heavily that we were stucked at the bus stop. *Not going into details of how we arrived at school*Changes of plans and groupings. 6 groups into 3 groups.The group which I was in were all girls' power. Cool, the juniors are all so enthusiastic and chatty.Had amazing race, night walk and of course some stuffs which are related to CCA. For amazing race, I screamed, I shouted. Those cadets who were in the parade square stared at me. It was really embarrassing.Dinner was fine. Night walk was a blast. It was super duple funny man. Seeing their reactions and everything, even teachers could not stop laughing.Studied for Biology test during camp yesterday. Slept on the floor, it was really very uncomfortable. Backaches!Woke up today at 7am to wash up, pack up and have breakfast. Headed for Biology and Chemistry respectively. We were so tired. Went home and slept at 3pm, all the way to 8pm. And, I'm still tired.Oh yes, everybody's very stressed up now. Even teachers too, are stressed. Tests, homework, mock exams are never ending. Test comes one after another. The results were still pretty disappointing.Yes, the results will not be taken into consideration of 'O' levels. We are told not to be sad, discouraged and everything. But still, it's very disheartening upon seeing those results, simply because we don't reap what we sow.No one is feeling very happy-go-lucky now. No more such things. Tension and stress. Hair loss because of stress, losing weight because of stress, eyebags because we lack of sleep. That's how much we've undergone. Though 'O' levels is in a few months time, teachers have already started to drill us up, equip us with skills and knowledge. All that they've done are just because they want to see a big great smile on each and everyone of our faces at the end of the day, and that is certainly greatly appreciated. However, I don't believe in rushing through those syllabus. Although, we've completed those syllabus before 'O' levels, do we even understand what we are doing? With the work load and stress, some might be able to cope, whereas some might not. Yes, we all have to learn to cope. Although study is part and parcels of our lives, still it is not easy to manage it. By right, a young teenager should feel happy and carefree. But now, as for my class, those usuals who are always so cheerful and lively are toning down. Not saying that it's a bad sign but I can't seem to find that cheerful and lively 3/8' 07; 4/8' 08 anymore. The feeling isn't the same. I've read some of their blogs, all I can see is the word "STRESS". To all my dearies:
Girls, work hard alright. Don't overstress yourself. I know it's difficult not to be stressed up, but try to overcome that stress of yours and at the end of the race, score with flying colours. I believe you girls can do it! "If there's a will, there's always a way."To 3/8' 07; 4/8' 08:You guys have formed my greatest memories in Coral. Without each and everyone of you, 3/8' 07 wouldn't be what it is today. You guys can do it too! Work hard and overcome those obstacles. Jiayou! "If you think you can, you can!"Alright, I would stop here for now. 4 more days to holiday! :DD
