Just for the record
Today marks the last of my examinations in NUS. At long last, at the blink of an eye, the two contradictory statements have merged and I realize that if all goes well, as of today, I would have completed 4 years of tertiary education.
Every time I think about the fact that I've actually managed to complete higher education despite:
1. General muddling and slacking
2. Being emotionally distraught every other exam time
3. Thinking that I couldn't even make it to poly (coz I couldn't pass Maths)
I am thankful...
For friends who have been there, supporting and encouraging me.
For the people who have broaden my mind.
For the passers-by who trudged through my life and unwittingly allowed me to learn humbling lessons.
For my dad who ensures that I make it to school for lessons.
For my mom whom I turn to for advise.
For God, who has shown me great mercy and miracles that I am unworthy of.
Contrasting the 19 year old who entered NUS with the 23 year old leaving, I would like to think that there are significant improvements, such as being more independent, more intelligent, looking prettier (this is important) and generally being a better person...
Speaking of
significant, other than improvements, as a side note (and as reply to people who are perplexed by perpetual dieters), I have grown significantly and empirically older and larger.
*gag* Hope that's not going to be a trend.
Oh, in case your eyes lit up at certain keywords in the above paragraph, (I know its juvenile, but...)
Kaypoh la, you!
So with that electronic dog-ear bit, I leave you to reminisce about autograph books, memories and graduation.
*hugz*
