Updates. Quite a lot has changed. I cant believe that my last post was a month ago. Gosh, things really seem different now. To the future is where Im heading. But first, a taste of the past to familiarise..
I must say, Hari Raya this year wasnt as vibrant as before. Perhaps due to the constant pestering of the ukhrawi teachers to constantly revise, the mood sunk. However, I did try to make the best of situations with my family members. A deeper bond began to carve its way into my life. Finally, a small taste of harmony between my own kinship.
As the days to STE drew closer, I still found everyone complacent, including myself. Preparations were made but majority didnt find the need to worry. During the exam itself, the atmosphere was that which said "Gotta leave the room now!"
I remember before each paper, we would joke and laugh around in the exam hall. Some would exchange paragraphs from essays and others just zipped on their jackets and awaited their papers. 2 hours later, freedom!
STE was a great moment. Awesome free periods, gossip and games and also lots of memorising. I quite agree with my seniors. STE is pretty easy. But I'll see for myself when I get the results, due January.
But the most saddest moments always come last. Another batch of wonderful seniors leave Irsyad to walk their next paths in life. All the close friends I've made. All the memories. Shedding a tear or two. Alas, parting is a natural part of life. Next year, I'll leave too. And I know, on that very day, I'll cry my heart out..
As awaited by many students then, the holidays have arrived. A wish I want to take back. The complete emptiness of everyday is just killing me as it is every other student. Prepare for O Level's next year, says the teachers. Easier said than done. I astonished myself just touching my Physics book a few days ago. So note to self : Do prepare for O's^^
But it seems I go out even more than I should. Books should be my companion, should I hope for it. So without me trying, I have stressed myself, knowing that my inactive actions could cost me 2011. Oh bother..
This coming Monday is going to mark the end of schooling days. When I do get to school, I'll remember to give hugs to everyone. I terribly miss this family of mine. A family of people not of the same blood but of the same heart. A family brought up to love the Almighty. A family I havent seen for quite some time. After all, absence does make the heart grow fonder. *winks*
