I think that this has been the most tiring week since the beginning of this year. I am so physically and mentally tired, that if I suddenly breakdown and cry, you would know why. And the irony is; its only the first term...

I don't know if i can keep this up for the rest of the year, and I'm in desperate need of a holiday. I've been hearing the teachers talk all day about how tough O levels will be, and frankly, I'm beginning to feel frightened. I mean, what if like, I don't manage to get what I want? Then what? Do I repeat? Do I go overseas? Do I go ITE? What will happen to me? I don't know if I can take this anymore... I don't know if I can make it through the year like this, knowing that it will get harder and harder...

And to add to this lovely thing that's happening to me, the band is just making me want to pull the hair out of my head. I mean seriously, one simple instruction and they take forever to carry it out. Moreover, I have to keep on repeating myself and shouting at the top of my voice just to get a point through. And I think I just vented my frustration on the sec 1s this afternoon. I'm sorry for scolding you, but come on man, you guys can do much better than that!

I think those in he express stream are the luckiest people in the school. They wouldn't have to experience what its like to be in Sec 5. When you're in sec 5, you'll start to feel... how should I put it... lonely, old, pressurized, left out... The batch that you have been with since sec 1 has suddenly vanished, and you're like the only survivor left. The friends you've had since primary school and even from sec 1 just suddenly disappear and you are left alone to fend for yourself. Its torture.

What's more, when you think that all your friends who have graduated in sec 4 have already done their O levels and and moving on with their lives, makes you feel even more petrified about what wonders await you in November...

It's easy to think about life after O levels. But to remember that you have the most important examination that decides the course of your life at the end of the year, life after O levels will seem like an illusion...
