The past 17 years on Earth
Tomorrow is my Birthday..wow 18 soon :) so fast.
In my past 17 life, I had experienced lots of things…first accepting my skin condition eczema..waking up everyday regretting of scratching myself without knowing…all the marks and scars on my hand and legs..just like a tattoo that can’t seem to erase……putting cream that wouldn’t help and trying out lots of remedies that don’t work..there is no hope for it..
Next, accepting the fact that I am not smart…I am hardworking….not as smart as my brothers, neighbors, friends and cousins. The feeling really sucks; no one in my family can understand how I felt..i still remember PSLE, my mothers and brothers label me as “brainless” “stupid”…my heart literally hurts like a knife stab it..tears flow non-stop….worst my mum was angry that I went to Punggol Secondary School…but I am glad the nightmare was over :)after rain, there will be sunshine ;)
In my life there were also happy and memorable moments, I met great and best friends in my Secondary school, I enjoyed going to school and learnt new things…there were new experiences..sad, stressful and happy times..Secondary was the best moment in my life….i did not regret going to a secondary school..Instead I had gotten quite ok O level results…I also met great friends from British Council and I miss my clique..now I starting to enjoy and adapt to poly life..hahax…
My blaw tutor told us, “Grades are not everything in life”….it just kept me thinking for hours if it makes sense..somehow it does…guess “Health and happiness are everything in life”
Lots of things happened around me, and I realized we must cherish the people around us before it is too late and not to take things for granted….nothing will stay the same forever and love can’t be measured…..
