Last Day of School

I feel so numb on the last day of school. Everyone around me were trying to treasure every last moment they spent in school today but somehow I could not get into that mood.

I ran another race today for Fleming. Li Ang said that he cannot cope with 3 race in a row so I subbed him for 4 x 400m. I joined a team of juniors and they are all damn fast! The race ended without me knowing what position we got, I think we got 4th. I don't think there is anyway we could have outran Cai Yue, Clement and Nat.

The day ended with a farewell party from the juniors of table tennis club. Yan Long ordered pizza and all the year 6s received a farewell gift (a bottle of folded stars). I must really thank Wen Xin for making this. According to Yan Long, she was given a short notice and finished the job within one day! This is what I call efficiency.

I think just like the astronomy club, this table tennis club will be very special to me as it was founded by me, Yun Ying and Dominic (Leslie and Jia Jun too, but they betrayed us and joined badminton initially). We took a great deal of effort to persuade Mrs Lim Jee Nee(forgot how to spell her name) to let us set up this club. We also managed to pull through 2 years with $0 funds from the school (we must thank Mr Chai for his dedication to this team as I guess he payed the original funds). In fact, money only starts coming in this year. I do not know how much the juniors treasure this CCA but I wish they will continue to commit and achieve what we have failed to achieve.

I also talked to one of the year 3s whom I tutored for physics this morning. I found out that he managed to pass his mechanics which is great. I also heard that the other juniors from the tutoring scheme put up by the physics department are also doing well. I really hope that the juniors work harder and maintain the standard of NUS High School(and get that freaking 4.5 CAP). This is because I have been trying to fill up scholarship and university applications and my transcript looked very depressing. Even if I am granted an interview, I guess I will have to think of 101 excuses why I got so many Bs and Cs and so few As. I truly wish that the juniors do not make the same mistake as I did. Now I can only try for scholarships and Universities, but it is most probable that I will end up in NUS in the end.

So do work hard, juniors of NUS High School!
