Hai...last post until after o's I suppose. Yeah...no chance to see me online either cos my broadband has been cut after August and prelims coming soon so can't really use I guess. Yep, so even if wanna come online also cannot ba. Doubt I can even check my own email. So much to say that can hardly be put into words.
Yeah...hopes for an Olympic medal has been dashed...Li Jia Wei also crashed out of the 3rd and 4th placing, how things can happen exactly as the Olympics four years ago. So history does repeat itself, really sad thing. Ronald Susilo seemed to stand a good chance but he too lost earlier on, ironic thing that the couple both lost. Hopefully next time can make it...by then I'll be four years older heh.
Some things I'd like to say later but I don't have the chance. Still quite some time before graduation but I've gotta say this way beforehand ya. Victoria School has given so much to the students and it's time for us to return the favour. I feel that each and every Victorian has definitely benefited much from the four years in this fine institution. This very institution in which we've spent our four years growing up, maturing and learning. There has been much opportunities given to us and for me as well. Given the chance to be the chairperson of VSRCCU but didn't really take the chance. Was nominated to attend LTC but not selected. Was nominated to be asst monitor but ended up becoming class chairperson, so many things given to me but I just sorta took things for granted. Come to think of it now, I'm regretting what I did, you know wasted my time and slacking and stuff. Every Victorian definitely has the chances in terms of leadership, academics and other aspects. I'd definitely like to thank the school for all that it has given to us and bred in us, the students. What's important in people's eyes may be the academic results but I personally feel that letting the Victorian Spirit live on should be of utmost importance to every Victorian. I just wanna thank Victoria School for everything it has given to us and no matter where I go, I'll never forget the wonderful days I've had in there. Be it in Red Cross, 1A, 2A, 3J, 4J, school events, national events, all the memories will be etched vividly in my mind. The open book symbolising lifelong learning, the torch symbolising truth and the passing on of a tradition and also illuminating the way of Victorians who venture forth to excel beyond the shores of Singapore. Yellow standing for dignity and excellence and red symbolising universal brotherhood and equality. That's the school crest of Victoria School. Seven core values of Victoria School namely: Performance excellence, integrity, tradition, professionalism, innovation, global mindedness, strategic alliances and compassion. Everything in VS is important.
Feeling lethargic...yeah tomorrow's my oral, hopefully can make it lah...Prelims starts next week, practicals, English, following week more practicals and Higher Chinese. After the holidays, prelims will resume...unprepared, don't know where I can go, just try to do my best.
Wish everyone good luck for the coming prelims and o's.
Hope things can get even better heh...yeah...it'd be really nice...
I shall end off with the Victorian Anthem and the school motto: Nil Sine Labore. Work hard Victorians, and bring the school back up to where we belong!!
Victorian Anthem
Victoria In Singapore,
There are other schools we know,
Victoria is something more,
The school that watch'd us grow.
For here we've learnt and striven too.
And played the sportsman's game;
Victoria, we give to you
The honour that you claim.
Victoria thy sons are we,
And we will not forget,
Victoria thy triumphs see,
And victories we share yet.
For others came before and went,
And carried to the world,
Victoria's fame and our intent
To keep her flag unfurled.
