Haha, it’s a Monday without the Monday blues. Woke up at 7am this morning, early huh? Went online to check the score of last night’s big match. Manchester United ended Chelsea 40 games unbeaten run! Woohoo! Haha, it’s the 1^st time Chelsea lost twice in a row since Jose Mourinho took over. Darren Fletcher, of all people, scored with a lucky strike. It was a surprise that united was able to defend against a Chelsea onslaught in the 2^nd half of the game. I had never seen or expect Man Utd to play a defensive game. Throughout the 90s, they were the ones that played the typical English style, but they played like Italian last night. Nevertheless, it’s 3 points in the bag for Man Utd n 3 points taken off from Chelsea. It’s a morale booster for the whole premier league cos everyone was like thinking whether Chelsea will ever lose a game this season in the league. Things can only get more interesting from now on.

Went to the driving centre in the noon to top up the balance in my account. So far, I had already spent close to a thousand dollars. Can really feel the ache in my heart. Argh, why must it be so costly to learn how to drive a car? Cycled from Tampines to Kaki Bukit under the scorching sun. Never would I expect to get a sun burn juz within 45min under the sun. I was wearing a singlet, n now my shoulders are red. Gonna have my 1^st practical lesson tmr. I wonder how it is going to be like. Gotta rush my driving practical now. Intending of getting my license before Chinese New Year so that I can drive my family around for visiting in the new car.

Tmr will be the start of the GCE A Level Examination. My sis n Shiyun will be sitting for it. Time flies, it has been 2 yrs since I took this much dreaded examination. It’s tough, really tough. PSLE n O Level were so much more easier to conquer. I guess that’s why it’s called Advanced Level. Tmr will be the start of a grueling 3 week exam period, a test of stamina, endurance n brain power. If u lose out on one of it half way through, then u’re gone case. As for me, I lost my focus half way through. There was a one week break after all my maths n chemistry papers. I had intended to further brush up my physics during that week before continuing the battle. Regretfully, I relaxed n took the pedal off a little. I let my guard down n ended up ill prepared for my physics. The consequence? A “D” grade for my physics. Didn’t fail, but the grade was pathetic. I’m really lucky that I did alright for maths n chemistry, or else, I can kiss university life goodbye. The day I took my results, I was really relieved. Till today, I still think that I’m really lucky to have gotten a place in a local university. Throughout the 2 yrs in JC, I hardly studied n understood juz 50% of all my lessons. Most of my time was spent on the water canoeing, I slept during lectures ALL the time n NEVER touched my tutorial assignments. It was a miracle really. If I can go back to 17yrs old again, I’ll definitely study much harder, but then it’s all over now, no point brooding over it anymore.

I learn from the past, live in the present, n look towards the future. Memories of the past will 4eva be with me for I need to learn from the mistakes I committed. I savour every moment in my life now n will always look to the future with an optimistic view. For her, she will always have a place in my mind n in my heart. I won’t try to erase her from my memories, cos I know it’s absolutely impossible. The time we spent n things we did together for 2 yrs were too intense n too much to be forgotten. Oh well, I have to stop being depressed no matter what happens. Life has to go on; I’m on the road to recovery, a slow n tough one. Good Night…
