A day in Nayang
A day in Nanyang. Each day is typical, perhaps, but each day brings new things, new experiences and new sights. The music sounds at 7.20am as usual, lessons commence, the teachers drone steadily on, while all of us either diligently took notes or slept. of course, the latter is usually prevalent. But it really depends on the teacher's ability to capture our attention, and the humongous task of holding it, like reins to a horse.
homework. a dreaded thing, but a necessity at Nanyang. a day in Nanyang guarantees you one thing: homework. it is inescapable, it piles ever higher, and it increases in difficulty. at some point in time, here and there, a piece of homework will never be submitted. deadlines are that, dead. they r usually extended on the last day, most likely because no one in the class, except for one or two diligent ones, has finished it. yes, a day in Nanyang would no doubt have at least one class asking for an extension to a deadline, i'm sure. not a good practice perhaps, but a common one noetheless.
the bell rings, it is time for recess. what happens? we go to the canteen, queue up, buy food, and eat? it it really that way? sometimes, maybe. more often then not, u will find scores of people sitting in their classrooms, scribbling away incessantly, copying that latest piece of homework due today. anyone wif eyes will be able to see a second piece of paper sitting around somewhere , with all e blanks filled in, n e current piece directly in front of the pupil empty. not something you expect from us? welcome to the real world.
a little piece we did in class e other day to find our writer's voice (huh?). mrs tay wanted to gif us e most boring title, so tt appeared. yep. sorri, i guess i was a little...i dunno. frank? or maybe e descriptions dun relli happen in e betta classes...or maybe its only my class. nvr mind. but i was relli amused at e title...so tt came out. hahahahah...
n i juz treated peehua to a bar of chocolate. wow. tt leaves me wif 12 bucks for e whole entire week. not tt e choc was too ex, but still, wish me luck, so tt i will be able to last e week. oh, n it's a public holiday on fri, n i'm going to my grandma's place to make new year goodies!!! ( i actually noe how to make ok...not juz watch ppl make) its relli fun!!! haha n i get to try freshly done goodies!!! :D oh goodie. haha n i actually enjoy bio nowadays...its relli fun. i kinda like coordination n response, n aso e pre chapter on homeostasis. so farnily amusing. ha. e human hair stands when we r cold to trap air. like it relli works. we dun haf enough hair lor. but its relli amusing to learn 'bout all dis stuff, n like suelynn goes in e dance studio yesterday while i was cracking someone's back "hey we juz learnt about e spinal cord n wear n tear u noe ( or words to dis effect)" n i dunno, but i was like relli amused. nvr mind. i get amused easily.
i juz looked back n went like WHOA! such a long entry. so i shld stop now. maybe, juz maybe, i shld go do my hist, math homework n THINK of trying to do e critical reveiw of twelfth night i'm supposed to do. yar rite. i relli shld stop kidding myself. sweet dreams everyone!
