The first round of monthly tests this year just ended earlier today. I commend the school for being a teeny weeny bit smarter than I gave them credit for, because they effectively forced everyone to come to school on a Saturday just to make us sit for our papers.

And by creating an exam like situation by making us sit according to the name list and making us do all the other exam formalities, they've managed to actually make people study for monthly tests. And by people, I'm not included :p taking full advantage of the state of mind people are put in by this. sigh, scumbag school -_-

Probably the only few good things that came out from this was that my bag probably weighed 500grams, nobody disturbed my sleep, no homework, and the satisfaction from my small act of rebellion for blanking answers, refusing to study anything and sleeping before checking my paper at all.

Ya sure, pretty normal for most people, but my usual kiasu self would never allow me to do that. Neverever.

Other than that, I've started going for athletics training (finally) after a month of concentrating fully on volleyball. School training is definitely less tiring than the training I went through in Cameron's and in more ways than one I'm thankful for that.

Sometimes I look back at my younger self, and I realize how much more willing I was to go the extra mile for the things I hated doing compared to now. Now, my focus and dedication is laser point. I give my all when doing things I love, and give almost nothing at all when it comes to things I hate eg. Librarian work, class work, homework etc

It's not that I'm lazy or anything. I just can't bring myself to give two shits about things that only cause me misery anymore. I've had enough of shit during my lower secondary years, when I still did the class board the best I possibly could, when I willingly cooperated with my library teacher, and when I still bothered copying people's homework.

I think something deep inside me snapped some time ago, and i just gave up on everything I didn't like. I work differently now. My sense of responsibility towards things like my volleyball club, Kembara and athletics training is especially high. I feel the need to push myself for these things.

Others, not so.

Toodles noodles :)
