Hai Girls,
Guess what? My exams are finally over – FREEDOM AT LAST! The
feeling of relief and joy I had after finishing my final paper was
indescribable. For those of you out there taking the A-levels… you know what I
mean. At the same time, I’m also getting kinda nervous about how I actually did… now I have to start worrying
about the results?!
First, I want to enjoy my
break. I’ve had this really long list of things I want to do right after the
exams: shopping, watching movies, going out with my friends… but I can’t help
but feel another list creeping up in the back of my mind. Sure, I’m done with
school but… what am I gonna do next? My friends are already talking about
university, NS, jobs, careers?? When do we get our break, does work never end??
Ma was flipping through our
old photo albums and I found a baby photo of myself –doing my trademark little
pout, looking like I didn’t have a care in the world. Don’t I look cute?
Me and baby me! |
I remember at that age I’d
say stuff like “when I grow up I’ll be…”, or “when I grow up I wanna do…”. My
childhood ambitions ranged from wanting to be a doctor to being a fashion
designer or a princess (of course). I could dream about whatever I wanted to be
because the future was still far away and full of promise. But now, it feels
like the future is suddenly here!
It’s time for a reality
check and a to have a long hard think about what to do next. In a sense this
time is liberating too… I’m starting off my career from a clean slate… I could
do anything I want… but what’s the right choice? Ugh… back to square one.
Pondering my future... |
I would usually turn to my
friends to discuss matters like these – I mean they’re the only ones who’d
understand since we’re all going through this together… But, if everything else
in our future is about to change then what’s the guarantee that our friendship
won’t either? The boys will go off to NS and the girls will scatter into
different colleges and industries. EVERYTHING is about to change! Sigh…
My heads starting to hurt
with all this heavy real life stuff... But, that being said, these worries will
be waiting for me tomorrow too right? So today I’m going to stop thinking and go
shopping!!
Until next time, mwah!
