Overall development of the student? I don't hear the social aspect of it.

Must Stretch potential? But like a rubber band, there's a limit to how much we can stretch, and if i remember right, each rubber band has different elasticity potentials, and by stretching everyone, there is a risk of people breaking. Would you rather people break and a majority of overused rubberbands or brand new ones which can stretch for the future. Well you could look it at how the more you stretch, the more elastic it'll be for future use. Oh man.i'm contradicting myself on this and it just goes round and round in a circle.

Today passed by in a blur for me. Starting with how i found my brother sleeping on the living room floor, with the lights still on. Then i missed the bus 171 when there was the electronic board that stated 3min for the bus to arrive, and the next time i checked, it was 13min. I still don't know how i didn't see the bus pass at all. Then, repeatedly fell asleep during first period econs lecture, with the vp lecturing directly in front of me, while i was taking notes down too. Pe was fine, math- i did nothing for math.was doing geog work, and when i wanted to start on math, it was over. Lunch seemed longer than usual.chinese.my mind just wasn't there.geog. I heard more babble than reasons for differences in primate cities in LDC and DCs. Second period geog was all conversation and visualiser-camwhoring. Maybe its the rain. That turns people's character. I observed five different kids emo during cip, and two of them were cause they were playing and pulled down a curtain and the ceiling broke.i bet they got lectured. Then my study session at long john's. Ate mediocre fast food, did three geog questions on the hydrological cycle and fell asleep for who knows how long. Gave up the rest by 6pm and decided to come home and sleep.

I have finally realized why i looked better in primary school. Today's trip back to hpps gym was like, exhausting. I mean i was tired and panting from just doing only a few tumbles, and i bet my muscles are going to be aching for the next week. When i was young, meaning about 5 years younger than the current me, i had boundless energy, super flexibility, a light weight, and more muscles in the right places, which is either perfect for gym, or cultivated from gym. Now, the current me? let's not talk about it. Advantages of doing gym not only makes you look good, feel good, have courage and an adventurous spirit. People will admire you for those qualities as i find gymnasts are more outgoing. Downside? Improper training results in bad joints for the rest of your life.

A HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY to all my teachers who taught me so far, i don't think i would even be here right now if none of you have influenced me in one way or another.
like always, teacher's day was ACES day, where we did kickboxing to techno music again. Council this year was active and dubbed it 'Be yourself day.' I think it's a good thing, when most of my class guys dress up, it kinda actually makes the class bond through their entertaining yet extravagant actions. concert wasn't too bad, and class pizza party, well we haven't had one in awhile.

it seemed so long ago that i actually went back to henry park, a year maybe? A little changes here and there, to the teachers, to the group that goes back. i mean it's been five years since we graduated from the school, but it still brings back pleasant memories. there were nice revelations, entertainment from the primary one and two kids' hyperactive-ness and chaotic mess in the hall, and their attempt to do the chicken dance for ACES. i really admire the teachers for having so much patience and (the most appropriate word that fits would be) understanding. really. thank you teachers for putting up with us brats in the past. i never realized how.....big a handful we could have been.

i miss the good old times.
