First Week In School

The first week of school has just been fine for me. I am still currently suiting back to VS life after a 2-month holiday break. Expectedly, I found it difficult to wake up on the first day of school. I entered the school gates reluctantly. When I entered, I saw many lost Secondary One students hanging around the hall area. I made my way to the classroom later.
The teachers I have met so far were familiar so I still used to their teaching styles. The class committee members were also elected and I was chosen to be a representative of Physics. David remained as the class monitor while kheng jing was forced to be M2. There were practically no lessons on the first day of school, except for some Chinese reading we had to do during Mother Tongue lessons. This was the reason of many administrative jobs and camp preparations for Secondary One students.
The second day was when I received my first project- a D&T research on Diorama. To add to the misery, this was in conjunction with Literature. There was a boring screening of a video which was in Japanese so none of us could fully understand it. For the rest of the day, it was free and easy as most of the teachers were away. Before they left, they gave us stacks of homework which left many of us complaining.
On Friday, I met a new history teacher. He showed us some pictures of famous people of the past and told us to read our textbooks later. The rest of the day was nothing surprising.
The ends of year examinations are very important year as they will count for my streaming for Secondary 3. I hope to score myself into triple science or even IP.
