Been wrapped in one so tightly this year.
I feel like I missed out a lot, a lot of new changes in the world, events,shops, and all, just because of the single pursuit and focus on the A levels.

A bit sad about this. It’s like training in a monastery for gongfu high up in the mountains and isolating yourself from the world outside- just that ours take even more self discipline since we’re still in the “world” and am not truly cut off, at least physically.

What is life and what has it done to me? Are you the egg, carrot or coffee bean?
Right now I’m the egg. Changed by my circumstances- almost to the core cos I had to suppress almost all my other passions for life just to study for these exams. And yes that would judge me academically but my character? Maybe I proved to be resilient and hardworking, conscientious but can it grade courage? Can it grade zest and passion for life? Can it judge compassion? Friendship? Respect?

Time to get crackin’ and turn back into the coffee bean. Have to remember that I am a mover and a shaker. Not to say the journey was worth nothing but I’m thankful that it’s almost over. Now, to greater challenges in life. I am proud that I studied my ass off this year. So fk them all if I score badly lol. I know my character strengthened and I learnt so, so much.

Love & peace out people.
