Hi guys.
It's obvious that we've been suffering the aftermath of having Sports Day on a Monday. Everyone's tired, really tired and in need of some good, long sleep time with their soft beds and air-con blowing over their heads. Plus the test we had and some other activities; we're beat and we all know it.
I've seen the things that have happened. Many from our class have suffered some kind of mental breakdown, be it shown in crying, complaining, shutting up, ponning school, or doing something really stupid in hope of bringing up spirits, but nothing seems to work.
Haha. Monday was quite some day huh. Thanks to all those people who sent Joan and I some messages of encouragement after we slogged over the whole party. But everyone has to be thanked, all of us put in tremendous effort to make that day a good day for all of us, and I think that happened. Sports Day was good, especially with the class cheer. Setbacks were set aside, and we shouted our hearts out. We can be comforted by the fact that we came in 2nd overall, which is pretty darn good for our cool and calm class. Thanks to all the runners in finals and during heats, sports officials, banner holders, encouragers, food suppliers, screamers...
Maybe not winning some things might have brought us down, but no matter. We still have Dramafest which we will win. And awards can't say if we're united or not, enthusiastic or not, initiated or not... We know it ourselves.
Anyway, back to the point. This week has been pretty down for all of us, and I'm not quite sure what we can do to bring it up. We can take comfort in the fact that it's gonna be the end of the week soon (and the start of another), or act mad and eat germinating chickpeas (Hi Cherie!) or speak with our mouths perpetually open for better articulation (be careful don't get diarrhoea with all that dirt flying into your mouth).
I'm not gonna say cheer up and feel happy, because you can't will yourself to do that. But it's almost over, and we'll pull through.
