Hey!
Wed, 16/9
Had a friendly match of soccer with class 4e1. As it struck mid-noon, the scorching sun rested in place and the whistle blew for the beginning of the game. Both teams, working very hard to play their very best. Goals, one after another, pushing either teams to work even harder. After 45mins of what seemed long and exhausting, its half-time. And then the next 45 mins really depended on our will to continue pumping our muscles, running up and down the field. However for some, their muscles gave up half-way and soon a number of people were getting cramps not because they did not stretch but because they are over exerting their legs. In the end, this fantastic match has to end. Indeed, it ended beautifully as well, with a score of 5-5. It was a draw!
A big thanks to the sec 3s who played for us, Jian Wei for helping us though you were from the opposite team and 4e1 for the game. Thanks for giving us a good time. I hope you be able to forigve Jian Wei as he felt guilty throughout the entire game and constantly asked to go back to his class's team. Be more understanding and not ignore him. =D
Thurs, 17/9
Today is Zhenyi's 16th birthday. It happens only once in your lifetime and I firmly believed we had a great evening. After school, I went for RSL, responsible self learning, until 5 plus when i rushed home to change and dashed to the bus stop near east view sec. And when I thought i was the last to arrive at 6.15(we are supposed to meet at 6), there was actually someone later than me! We reached E hub around 7 and after much consideration, the birthday boy chose seoul garden(Buffet!). Whats different from this seoul garden is that we can order our food via a computer, it looked very cool! All of us ATE, ATE and ATE to our hearts' content. We literally sat there for 3 whole hours until the shop closed for the day and savoured every moment to its finest. As some of us were wearing some printed tees of animals, robin commented that, "after the meal, all of your animals have grown larger!" We sang a birthday song for him and his face went red. All of us gave him a big present of his favourite character in final fantasy, Cloud and his motorbike. On the way home in bus 12, Harold was more excited than anyone else, pressing Zhenyi to open his present(He still did not know what it was and we lied that it was barbie's boyfriend, Ken and sailormoon's boyfriend, sailor boy) Finally, he decided to open it carefully like a skilled ninja, not tearing any part of the wrapping paper, emerge his TOY. At this moment, we all went WA... and the people on board were feeling happy for him as though he was a kid who just received his very first present. It was a hilarious sight! We alighted at different stops and went home. It was already 11+ and the next day still has school. An unforgettable 16.

Why.. ?
Why this fear...?
Why this..
This cold fear.., silently grip me so tightly as though someone was breathing down my neck. This cold breath and suffocation torments my very soul. It envelops my body, devoured my mind and seized my entire prized possesions. The pain of this loss is so overwhelming and unbearable that one could have felt despair like they were going to drown in the desolate sea or burn themselves in the flames of hellfire; fear and agony. This very thought smouldered beneath the mask of what have been my acquaintance, is slowly melting my mask revealing my inner, torn and battered piece of me.
I have to work harder, i say. But it doesn't seem to be easing the pain and all is left is rubble and remanents of scattered pieces of courage and determination. Will I get through it? Am I still going to shine and glow like I used to? Will I..? Will I..? I will... I need.. I must. I can!
It all depends on me. And the remaining days I have, have to be used wisely and be maximize. No more mistakes and merriment.
Maybe this bitterness will make me a bit sweeter.
I got to study hard, harder and the hardest!
And achieve my goal...

Title: 背影
Everytime I see you walking away, all i am left with, is a silhouette of your figure.
That silhouette slowly fading into the background...
Is still deeply etched in my mind.
