Another tiring day. Learning carnival boring...

Today had this leadership workshop thing in auditorium. Got all the various cca leaders involved. It was about reviewing ourselves as leaders and peer evaluation too. Then got this principal from pei cun primary come give us a small talk. He told us a story.

There was this person who graduated from one of the top jc in singapore with results that would let him go to Oxford university in england. But in the end he chose to go to some lousy australian university. The reason being, during the Oxford entry interview, he had to answer a simple question in order to get in. Name one significant thing you have done in your life so far. He couldn't answer that question.

I think he chose to go to the lousier university, so that he could spend time pursuing his ambitions, and not just study only.

Then I think...in life, we should nvr concentrate on one thing only, and forget the other things in life. Pursuing our dreams in one thing, working hard is another.

I'm 15 years old. Life has many more hardships and joy awaiting me. Now is the time when we start choosing the kind of lives we will live in the future. Rich? Poor?

Its 1more year to olvl. After that 2more years then A lvl. NS. University.

Many more years to come...better start making the right choices now.
