~The Road Less Taken~

Friday, April 4, 2008

over the last few days i've been very busy setting records (actually more like season bests).

unfortunately they're not at swim carn.

i set a record yesterday.

for the first time this year i did not sleep in any class in school.

this was due to another record - i slept before 12 the previous day.

and then yesterday night i slept before 12 again. setting a record for sleeping before 12 on successive days.

and then today i didn't fall asleep during any of the lessons!

(ok granted today i had pe and 2 lab lessons, in which one rarely ever falls asleep, but still. i only slept during my free period which doesn't count because i always do it anyway. =D)

ok i think you're getting the hang of this.

yes i am going to sleep early again tonight.

it's a welcome relief from the fast-paced (that's the best word to describe it) events of term 1. especially since i was busy for its whole duration with psgm. i think i can safely say it's been by far the busiest term of my ri life.

i remember there were times when i reached home in term 1 at 8, turning on my computer at 8.30 and faced work from all directions.

schoolwork psl cec ncc slo/rl (i hesitate to put this down but i shall; ripb!)

i think there was a point in time when i was just sending and reading emails for half an hour every day to all my organisations, one after another, leaving little time for schoolwork.

but i pulled through. with less than acceptable results, it must be said, but i have long believed that schoolwork is not the only yardstick to measure one's times in school. especially when it comes to finding meaning in school life.

and as you can see from my previous post i did find a lot of it.

ok on the emails bit i remember a very funny event which happened in our psl e-group.

there was a time when there was just a spammage of emails.

like 24 emails on the same subject in 3 hours.

i think the record is like 5 emails in 15 minutes (my public convo with mrs maas about the names of my comm members. ><)

it was fun in a way. of course we gave way to rationality and stopped it, but the flurry which came after the main camp (when everyone was high) was quite heartwarming.

haha it's a bit stagnant now though. the last act shall be the dunking (soon enough i hope) and the after action reviews (aar. isn't it nice how it half-spells my name? =D)

ok shall go off to sleep soon. term 2 hasn't gotten into full swing yet; i'm glad there's still some time for a breather before we go back to normal.

and ryan i swear i shall beat your sleeping time one of these days. even if it means i have to sleep at 9.30. it's good for me anyway. =)

I stopped to rest at 10:43 PM

Two roads diverged,and I-
took the one less taken...
