it won't be soon before long

cryptic title for this entry is maroon 5's album name. i'm not exactly sure what it means really, but if anyone would care to enlighten me, i'll be all ears :)

just thought of it because i was thinking about next fri, when results are supposedly going to be released.

most of you would be worried. please know it's perfectly normal. i was a bundle of nerves myself back then when i was awaiting the release of my results.

well, also remember it can't change a fact now so quit worrying yourselves sick!

it also seems that some of you are secretly worried about disappointing me.

let me say here that i'll be happy if you're happy with your results. maybe you think i have unrealistic expectations no thanks to my 'ra-ra' background, but the truth is i have tempered my expectations somewhat and my only wish is that each and every one of you get into a university course of your choice.

that's all i ask for. really.

but, in life, not everything goes according to the way you want it, and i've walked this earth long enough (yes yes i'm over the hill by now) to accept that.

when life throws you a curveball, it upsets your plans, throws everything into disarray, you cry, there's some guilt, some regret..but that's not the end of the story is it?

you just got to pick yourself up, find yourself a new storyline and make the best of it. if given lemons, make lemonade! :)

i do hope though, you realise by now, or later, why i was pushing you guys so hard - it wasn't about getting the As. i just didn't want any of you to regret anything next friday..because i know that's a v horrible feeling.

so go on out, live your life the way you know you should yeah?

the other thing i want to say is, i've met all my new classes. i've also come to the conclusion that it was a good thing they did not give me a PD class. somehow i feel like i'm cheating on you guys if i start loving my new class! :) i came pretty close to 'falling in love' with this particular class, but as destiny would have it, i'm not even their geog tutor. bah.

so be happy, you're still my favourite class :)

the last thing is, always remember we ARE 20 people who were together for two years. someone we love very much might have left us a little too soon... but we will always keep her with us in our hearts.

i was driving home one day last week feeling so so so tired when i saw the beautiful rainbow. it was a complete one, not those half past six broken ones.



always remember to find joy in the littlest things in life!

see you all soon :)

love,
ms h
