TGIF!

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY! gosh i've had such a tiring and stressful week. with all these activities and waking up early and lectures about how hard it is to score for IB and this and that and what not... finally get a BREAK.

Gosh i gotta be very honest... since these lectures on IB subjects and EE and ToK and CAS and everything started, i've had this nagging feeling of regret at the back of my head. IB requires constant and consistent scoring... and i'm not a consistent scorer. I'm more of the end product kinda guy, so i've been doubting in the back of my mind that i'm actually cut out for IB.

But i've realised that it's all about knowing how to play the game. i should stop thinking about why i'm NOT cut out for IB. what i need to do is think about HOW to make myself adapt to IB. Forget what i'm not. Think about what I can be. And, step by step with God I will get that diploma at the end.

hmph the IB programme seems so friggin scary. Today they talked about all the criterion and this and that and CAS hours and that again. Sounds so demanding. Sounds impossible.

But i guess if i take it a step at a time it'll be all over before I know it.

Hmm went for my first day at ACS (Indep) today. They (Dr Ong) told us not to call it ACS (I). apparently there's ACS international also.

The campus is FRIGGIN HUGE. and they give strange names. The canteen's called an SAC or student activity centre. The food's not that bad. Didn't enjoy it too much though. Not used to it I guess.

And there are LIFTS IN THE CAMPUS

I felt really wierd today. Cuz I was in cat high uniform, which means GREEN SHORTS, among all the other pre-u students in long pants. So wierd. I felt so young.

But the people were very nice though. Most quite friendly and outgoing. Very cool.
