longest entry ever....
I had fun yesterday. I met up with an old friend of mine. We’ve been friends for like 10 years plus. After we left our primary school we lost contact. We both went to different secondary schools and lived our own lives. But during hari raya 3 or 4 years ago, she took a chance and came over to my place. She was hoping that I would still be living here. And she was lucky. I’m still living in the same house for the past…oh….13, 14 years or so. It was nice to see her again. Back in our primary school days we were like sisters. There use to be 5 of us. She, my twin, me and 2 of our other friends. We even named ourselves after the Spice Girls. Ha ha ha…and I was Victoria. Ha ha ha…those were the days. I miss those days…we were so care-free. I still remember me and twin would be the last in class from primary 1 to 4. It was only in primary 5 that our grades got better. I guess that was when I realized that I didn’t want my life to go down the drain like some people. After that things just got better. I took my PSLE and was the 2nd in class. That was also the year that my dad told me that if I got 1st in class he would get me whatever I wanted. Well, technically not everything. When I was in primary 6 I started to have an interest in writing. The first story I wrote and titled “Saving the White Rhinos” it was base on a 5 minute video of white rhinos being killed for their horns. It was like 6 pages long. First time I wrote since a long story and it was my own. And since then I’ve been writing. When I got into secondary school. I took a nose drive and was 7th in class. I was kinda upset. But the years after that I kept on getting 1st in class. I held on to my father’s word that he’d get me what I wanted if I got 1st on class. I still remember when I was in primary school I was so scared to get my dad to sign my report card but when I was in secondary school. I had nothing to be a afraid of. Only my twin did. She didn’t do quite was well as I did but cant blame her. She was in normal academic and I was in the normal technical stream, which was a harder stream. She took more subjects then I did. And whenever I showed my dad my report card he would ask my twin what she wanted to be when she grew up. She wanted to a fashion designer. When it was to me he went like “you don have to tell me. You and your police force.” I would just giggle.
Well I guess if my dad didn’t give me that little push (the I’ll get you whatever you want) I wouldn’t be here. But poly is harder then ITE and secondary sch. And I wouldn’t be able to top my class anymore. But hey, I just want my diploma over and done with. And start working. Cause almost all my friends are either working or married. Yap…two of my friends are married, 3 are getting engaged, and the others are out there in the working world. And I’m still in school. Which is a good thing…at least with my diploma I would a sergeant or even a inspector. My pay would be like $1.5 K…haha haha…man I’ve written so much…I’d better ink off there…see ya….take care..
