We had first lesson of Comiss today. And by 'we', I mean most of the Ngee Ann Poly students I know. Honestly I didn't feel like going at all, and the temptation to skip today's class was damn high. But well, I gathered my guts and just made my way to Block 53.
I was actually the first to arrive, would you believe that? Not even the teacher was there; the classroom was dark as hell. Eventually she did, and the classroom started filling up as well. And then I realised... I was the only girl. Until this other girl came, and of course, seeing the rest being guys, she made her way toward me.
She asked if she could sit there, so I told her of course she could! And that was the first smile I gave all day. I learnt her name, Wani, and very soon after we also discovered that the two of us were the only girls in the class.
First lesson today was not bad actually! Wani and I went for lunch together, or, more like a quick break. We got waffles which we ate in class, and I even managed to bring in a cup of Milo hehe.
Oh, introductions. I'm always struggling with what to say as a first impression, because I have too many stories to tell! In the end I settled in for my name, age, course, my true desired course and why I'm in this course instead. Yup.
Okay, the video about water was hilarious. Not really the contents actually, just the part of the lesson when we were all watching it. We were laughing away, and I couldn't stop giggling even after the laughter had died down! Well, I'd describe what we were laughing about but it was more of a "you had to be there".
At the end of the lesson, our teacher told us that our key to leaving the classroom was to give yet another introduction, this time with the tips we had just learnt in the lesson. In one minute. Damn!
I was the fourth to go, on my own will, and you have no idea how badly nervous I were. My knees were shaking and my heart was beating so quickly. And when I spoke, my lips were trembling! Everyone's eyes were on me okay? Don't blame me.
What did I tell everyone, you ask? I love writing. Yup, that was the first thing I had to say. How I've been writing since a decade ago, and how I still continued in the form of a blog as I grew older. And then I told them how I'm still trying to work hard to get recognised for it, because it's not only a hobby, but it's a passion. It's life.
I also made a reference to Naomi Neo, haha. So sorry. I also told them how I'm not living with my parents, and how I'm in a course that I absolutely hate [the shit with Maths and, shit], and that writing is my way of trying to get my life back together after all that shit.
Yup. One minute down, so I just thanked everyone, went back to my seat to pick up my bag, and left the room.
I made a solitary escapade to Jurong Point to get myself ear sticks, to accommodate for the one which had fallen off in the morning. Ugh what a pain. And then the prince was telling me not to keep anymore studs, and to just keep myself clean of piercings. I couldn't.
If you're reading this, prince, I just want to let you know that I was looking forward to telling you all about my day today. But yes, I never have a chance to talk to you anymore. You say yourself that our conversations are boring, and it seems like I won't make a difference if I tell you how my day at school went. That's why I decided to blog about today instead, as tired as I am to even turn on my laptop, and as much as I want to talk to you instead of blogging. We're growing distant, we are, and you're losing interest in our conversations it seems. But it's okay, I have my old sweetheart: writing and blogging.
I really depend on writing for life huh, do I.
From today on, I'm gonna be blogging more frequently, especially to write about how my day went. If it gets boring, do let me know. Thank you for the support. I'm gonna continue chasing my dreams of being a writer, and at the same time cherishing my school days in Engineering, as much as I hate it.
