Chronicles of JC boy

Welcome to JC life.

You start out a small fry, yearning to be one of the top dogs and succumbing to the temptation of cracking lame jokes for the sole purpose of ice-breaking.

You then become the class joker. Your jokes aren't even funny, what's worse, your class makes you the butt of their jokes. You don't really mind; because you seem to find it funny as well. Your tutors like you and they think you are their model student. But you know you really aren't because you don't do your tutorials on time and you always copy the answers from the board.

You are elected a subject representative. Then you get to draw lots of graphs and diagrams for your tutor. You fold paper cranes in that class. Then you get misunderstood. A whole trend occurs as fast as fire spreads. Not that you really mind it. You become the biggest butt; of the class' jokes.

You decide to run for a high-profile CCA. It is tough work, but you go for it anyway. The stages have not even passed yet, but you are worried about the results. What should you do, you wonder. You then try out for a CCA that can get you all sporty and fit. You begin to like it very much. Who knows?

You begin to meet people you don't even know personally. But you meet them anyway. It seems you are becoming more friendly by the day. Has this JC changed you; you wonder once again. It seems that more randomly erupting thoughts are flowing out from your brain. You begin to find your place here.

A highly recognised event in the JC has caught your attention. You want to join it; but you do not really know where to start. You begin to wonder about relationships.

Relationships start forming in your class. No, not that sick kind of relationships. But true friendship-relationships. You begin to think that all of you are really bonded together tightly. Something happens to prove you right; a few classmates leave the class inadvertently. You cringe and your heart sort of melts because you feel some pain. Not big enough to hurt you badly, but pressurizing enough to feel a pinch in your heart.

The story you have just read is about none other than yours truly.

Except that I didn't state I was doing my Chemistry Tutorial whilst typing this entry.

Hooray for JC life. Not that I don't enjoy it, but not that I do either.

Weekends, how I love the way it sounds.
