Cos we're friends like that

I am very anal about some things. Ms Giri thinks I'm some weird perfectionist by the way i do up the minutes and cut up the newspaper articles for the pw file.

Maybe I am, i don't know. Acting very un-flealike nowadays.

I don't hear people when they call me.

Went out to meet Minhui, then i walked past a couple of guys sitting at the void deck. Then they keep making stupid noises. Nice, friendly person i am, i just ignored them.

On the way back, walked past some dudes and I was so in my own world i didn't turn around when they started doing the funny squeaking sound thing. Until they called my name. My pri school mates. Gosh, they must think i'm deaf.

Not a stretch of the truth. Selective hearing, to put it.

Zongyi says JC life will change a person. I don't want to change.

But in a system where academic achievements are valued more than the process of attaining them, we really wonder, is it worthwhile holding on to that little bit of yourself, and stay true?

Why not cut straight to the chase. Get your As. Get out.

Is a school a place where one studies and learn, in the academic way, and however much other interests and pursuits are important to you, they play second fiddle?

Perhaps one might consider what Wayne said. The best three years of your life. :)

What happened to "The process is more important than the end result?"

I still stick to my opinion that being real is more important than being perfect.
