And The 13th Brings Us Closer To The End

Alright i got loads of stuff to put up and hopefully i can get this all done before the internet cuts. From art, (I know, its weeks ago but IB sucks free time out of life) and the last day of school today.

Well last day of school. Sadly.

Last year, Leemin told me that last day of school was sad. I didn't really believe. Back then in Sec 1, i couldn't wait for school to end.

Damn you time for passing so fast. There is so much left to do. So much left to say. So much left to change.

But i've kinda gave up thinking to myself that i can turn back time if i wished hard enough (Yeah i used to think that way. Like we COULD be dreaming but whatever. Ignore this ><) So what else can you do?

I say, slow down, and take everything in.

There's so much out there i swear.

P.S. Long post ahead. Click to enlarge (Actually i think you should know X))

Check back later if you don't see it!) Videos are up!

(Wow okay that was long, and i haven't even loaded the videos yet. Still uploading on youtube. Ohwell! Looks like i'll do descriptions tomorrow. Anyway feel free to drop comments about my art, descriptions will be uploaded tomorrow!) (Descriptions another day people, IB exams first ><. The video ones are up on the youtube page though.)

I miss the art camping in the art gallery. So much stress, so much fun. And we made it! Awesome job art people. I kinda wanna go through that stressful hell again. Its really nice working day and night, feeding on sugar crackers and grapes, coffee milk and gummies. Singing out loud and knocking out on the couch, sawing random things and doing random crap. Almost falling asleep during econs paper 2.

There's so much left to learn. I learnt alot from art, i know.

How to treasure time; to see ordinary things in extraordinary ways. To keep going when everything is dragging you down, not to keep everything in out of fear, but to just sing it out loud.

Hell, can we just do this again?

The last day of school is a pretty sad thing. Its one of those days which you usually don't give shit about it because, well, it just feels like it'll never come.

But it does come and smacks you right in the face. I don't know about you, but i feel really down about it. Nostalgiaaaa. Its not about not coming back to school again. Its actually more about the things you do and the crap you go through with everyone else in the cohort; the random events (broken SAC door, throwing people in the fish pond, bouncing balls across the bridge, etc) and experiences as a class (WOW and all those buffets).

Aye. I hate losing friends the most though. No matter what they say, the fact is that sometimes some people just disappear from your radar. I hope not to many though.

Anyway midway through the last day celebrations and laughter, there's one thing i realised.

Yeap, I miss ACSI as much I miss SJI.

):

At least its not the end yet

:D

Should have taken more photos today but i guess these few will do!6.08 Of 2009

You talked to Leemin? Lol.

Yeah, it's sad. Bittersweet. Really. I'm kind of predicting what I'll be like next year when that happens to me. Though maybe I shouldn't think about that sort of thing all the time, which is what I tend to do. Haiz.
