Hi 22/08,

Happy new year! Time flies and we are now in 2009 :)

I'm dropping by to see how you guys are doing lah, as well as sharing how I have been coping all this while in university.

I'm having my semester break and will be starting school like you all on 12th Jan. For the past few months, uni life has been really hectic with studies and involvement in CCA. Perhaps without much surprise, I joined this CCA called NUS Political Association and will be organising a Current Affairs/ General Knowledge Quiz, targetting students like you all, to be held next year.

Hectic yes but nonetheless it was fulfilling. Got back my uni results for first semester just 2 days before Xmas (on 23/12), but luckily performed beyond expectations so I guessed I had a rather smooth first semester in university.

If you cant see clearly, I'm on the extreme left of the photo. Basically, me and my friends were wearing the ceremonial military uniform which we called the "No. 1". We were helping our superior, who was getting married, to be his swordbearers for the wedding ceremony. Was an interesting experience and just some of the events/ things I did during this semester break.

2009 is the A Level year and just like any other year, without u realising, you would have finished your JCTS, prelims, A Levels and attended Grad nite. So do treasure the year ahead spent with the class because time really flies!!

Hmm...if there's one thing to bring over from 2008, I think is Barack Obama's (testing your General Paper here ar) message of 'Yes, We Can'.

The year ahead will be challenging but I believe if you all are willing to work hard, never give up and lend each other a helping hand (so important I feel!!), YES, everyone can achieve what they set out to achieve for the year, especially for A Levels :)

This feels so much like a motivational speech...haha..but oh wells...I wish everyone has a blessed year ahead as I return to catch the episodes of Little Nonya I missed :P Take care!



22/08- the class that rocks(:
