I didn't blog for the whole year of 2011 and I'm going to change that for this year.
So much have happened since I last blogged and I don't even know where to start. I've accomplished a lot in the past year and I can't deny the fact that I'm proud of myself. Well let me begin with the fact that I made it through O'levels. Even though I got the results almost a year ago, the feeling that I felt on that day, was just Amazing. My hard work and sheer number of hours and sleepless nights was all worth it. Raw L1R5 of 11, enough to bring me into Meridian Junior College, where I am right now. The year of 2011 was filled with so much memories. Some that I wish I could forget and some that I hope I will never have to. I struggled through Year 1 in MJ and now I'm a J2 student. Taking A levels at the end of this year, A levels. Oh my god, A levels.
Well, that's a quick summary of whats going on in my life. Of course, I've done so much more than this! Did I mention that while waiting for my O'levels results, I had my first part-time job ever? I worked with my mom @ DHL, earning about $6.50/h. 6 hours everyday, 5 times a week. This, by far, was one of the most interesting thing that I did during the holiday, besides gaining weight. The whole working experience gave me a taste of working life. Something, that I'm definitely not ready for. It gave me a whole new perspective. Up till today, whenever I see my mom getting ready to go to work, I tell myself that I'm going to study and work hard, get myself a decent well-paying job, so that my mom doesn't have to go to work anymore. Mom, i love you.
Fast-forward to the day I stepped into MJC. The seniors welcomed us by standing along the sides of the gate and clapped and cheered as we went into the school. It was overwhelming but It's effective, in a way, their enthusiasm left me with nothing but a deep sense of belonging to the school. My Meridian journey didn't start out that great. I barely knew anyone and the thought of having to make new friends all over again just discouraged me from having fun. I was brought out of my comfort zone and I couldn't help but to feel restless and lost. All I ever wanted then was for my best friend to be there with me. I went through 4 years of secondary school life with the people that I've grown to love and care for. Making new friends, at that point of time, was just difficult for me. Coming from a neighbourhood school didn't help a bit, I definitely felt left-out during the first few days....and weeks. Eventually, I made new friends, whom are now my Close Friends. I felt blessed being able to be a part of an incredible class. My Meridian journey begin to pick up from there and the following months was just ___________. Obviously, I can't find a word to describe it. It's just beyond awesome.
I'm in Drama Club, or we would like to be called The Meridian Stage, and I owe it to this incredible group of people for making my journey a whole lot more easier. Even if I've never really shown it physically, I genuinely love each and every single member of this family. In the year of 2011, The Meridian Stage put up our very own musical @ Alliance Francaise. Months and months of rehearsals was clearly worth it when we saw the smiles on everyone's faces. Standing Ovation. A feeling so strong that I could barely describe with just words. The support that we received was Amazing, I could not have asked for more. Really. This year, the Meridian Stage will be going through SYF. Probably the only performing arts CCA that will be having SYF. Hopefully, we could overcome any hardships together, as one. God, please.
I've grown and changed so much as an individual. Every single day, I wake up, hoping that I could be a better person. God gave me another chance at life and I don't want him to ever regret giving me this opportunity to live. Have you ever met someone with big dreams and you think that he'll never be able to achieve it? Well I've met that person and I'm living in her world. Not only does she have a big dream, she would love everyone to be a part of it and dream with her. So that one day, all of us could turn this big dream of hers, into reality.
