The first two days of school.

I didn't get the chance to update yesterday so I'll blog now.

The first day of school was fairly easy going. Nothing much to do, just walking around, exploring the new campus, chit chatting. But, our first Moment of 2006 has arrived. It was History Tutorial, and Mr Yoong had just asked Samantha, "What were America's goals for going into Greece and Turkey?" To which Samantha declared, "World peace."

Priceless moment, truly priceless.

We've had a couple more silly random moments here and there, like when Benita said the mama shops in the area were very mama, or like today, when Vicks was trying to describe this snack to us known to her as Bee Bee (but which she pronounced as "bibi"). And fancy calling Mamee snack noodles "Mamee Mee"...

Random and crazy, that's my two days in school. Somehow I feel that the class has cooled down a lot, like we are more cordial to each other. Maybe things are getting better.

But the pressure is already heating up. I have a competition next month and we'll be training twice weekly. Then there's MUN coming up, as well as this GP accelerated program. If the accelerated program means extra work then I might not want to go for it, even if I get in. I personally prefer Ms Soh's class, if only for the lesser amount of work.

My computer is lagging, and I don't know why. I don't detect a virus attack or spyware, and I'd really hate it if it was spyware, cos then I might have to clean out the whole thing. The pitfalls of technology...
