My 1st semester's reflection

As you had known from earlier posts, I am a secondary one student in “School X”(a school that I am forbidden to say). Yay!

Being a secondary one student, you would think that we would be able to have freedom, able to go out with our friends, but that is not the case. Being in a prominent school, with so many clever pupils and friends beside me, I can only remain coop up at home to face the wrath of the homework and the textbooks.It seems exaggerating but the truth fact is homework is forever endless,all piling all!

I am not able to go out with my friends or even stay back in school to play soccer with them.I have to cut down my golf talent squad training to only once a week in the greens. I can only be able to spend my teenage hood during my recess or during my co-curricular activities---squash. I am ladened by homework, piling up day by day.Fortunately,I have an understanding and supportive parents who always pamper me,allowing me to go back to my 'dungeon' to be my own prince in every term ends.This helps me to rejuvenate my stamina and allows me to travel far after recharging,

I am exhausted.

I am tired.

I am suffocating under the pressure of the books.

Above are the minus points of being in such a prominent school.

What are the good and interesting points of being in a reputable school, you may ask.

Well, being in such a competitive environment, it will spur us to work hard and obtain better grades so that we would be able to catch up with our friends in terms of knowledge and studies. Being in a competitive environment and having a competitive nature, I will usually be hardworking and this will enable me to obtain better grades when I had done badly for a certain subject. In fact, being in secondary school is very fun and it is full of adventures for us to discover. We will be able to make lifelong companions and find friends who are of the same hobby and character as us. We will also be able to learn exciting topics that are not being taught before when we were in primary school.

I too have some plans for the next semester.

They are:

1)I would want to work harder so that I would be able to lower my Mean Subject Grade.

2)I would want to pursue my passion in squash and golf if time is at my side.

3) To cut down my intake and bring down my body weight for next challenge.

Thank You.
