Lyrics

Tomorrow will be my last day of lessons at NJC. Friday will be our farewell assembly so there won't be any lessons (though there will still be chemistry and GP consolidations...), and after that we'll be flying solo. Of course, there will still be messages from mission control from time to time, but by and large we're on our own for this final fight. Nostalgia is definitely starting to creep in, but I shall stave off those thoughts till the day itself; after all, that deserves a post on its own.

For now, the main thing on my mind is tomorrow's DSTA Scholarship interview :X Can't say that I'm 100% prepared, but at least I managed to do some reading up... That should be enough right? [No, not really]

It's still two days away but that graduation song from Vitamin C has started looping in my head already. I guess there's just something about that song, like so many diabetes-inducing love ballads and cringe-worthy National Day songs, which makes it sound unbearably corny at any other time of your life, but seem perfectly acceptable and even likable during those few moments in your life when you actually experience what the lyrics are telling.

In case you haven't noticed, I've decided to make a conscious effort to use proper spelling and grammar in my posts from now on :D Looking back through my archives, I realised that using IM-style contractions make me sound like a bimbo, and I've been cutting back on them for a while now, so I decided to go all the way and fix the lack of capital letters at the start of sentences too. Call me a straw-grabber, but I'll do anything right now to at least give me the feeling that I'm improving my GP in some way. I simply have no affinity with argumentative essay writing, be it GP or econs (<- this is more of a general shorthand rather than an Internet-spawned contraction, so yeah :D ); I remember that I used to actually like writing stories for English compositions, but I just can't find the same enthusiasm or flair in JC.

Wish me good luck for tomorrow. WISH ME NOW.
