Imaginations running wild.
Can't keep still during class.
Doodling and nonsense crap on the notes.
Keep dozing off during tutorials and lectures.
Eyes hurt from the continuous rubbing to keep awake and trying to strain to keep eyes open.
"Worms" keep appearing on the notes as the hand gives in to the brain and goes into the "sleep mode".
Stomach growls as each lesson passes and the lunch break seems so far away.
Nothing much gets into the head as the words from the lecturer or tutor passes into one ear and exits from the other.
We wait anxiously for the favourite lesson of the day: RECESS/LUNCH.
Incessant chattering fill the atmosphere.
Laughter fills the air.
Jokes fill the brain.
Food fills the empty stomachs.
We wait anxiously for the least favourite lesson of the day, especially when it's the last lesson of the day at 415pm! PE!!
Half an hour into the lesson and we are still seated prim and proper at the viewing gallery.
We fill the air with complains, jokes and plans about the run that was about to begin.
We decide to run as a group.
On the way, the group broke into pairs.
Encouragement and shouts of "hurry up" filled our minds.
The leg wants to run.
But the brain wants to stop.
The heat makes it even more unbearable to think.
PE ends in 25 mins after completion of 3 k, (2 rounds outside school).
Sense of achievement lifts our spirits as we enter the school with such a remarkable timing (when we actually planned to walk and be back in school in 30 mins).
Friendship builds up on the way.
"Jia you" was the common word to hear as friends encouraged one another to carry on.
A typical Monday in the life of Rachel...
--------------------
I really want to apologise to the YES committee for being unable to have gone for the YES session on Sun afternoon. I know it was going to be fun. It sounded fun. But ...haiz...sorry!
And YC really opened my mind to many things during the past week. How the Bible is so different in all versions and how faithful and enthusiastic i have been in the study of Christ and His word. Thanks to him that I am now on my 2 feet reading up.
And the meeting with Mel and Zw on Fri night made me relieve some of the pain and agony that was in me. (ok...that was over exxagerating) The talk with them made me realise what a person i am. It's not what I should be. But since they are my close sisters, i really didnt bother about image. Thanks dears for listening and offering help. I think i should just do what i have been doing though it's quite unfair to the person. yc made me realise that i could be experiencing such a thing coz it's God's plan for me. It's His will that I should be here to help this person and correct his/her life if it's within my means and try to be friends with everyone if they are willing. I just hope i can...Tolerance and patience is what ZW and Mel have been describing. I pray...
