A DIFFICULTY I FACED
Personally, I wouldn’t be caught dead writing this, but since I’m such a nice guy and everything I figure I might as well try. I hope this doesn’t sound too corny.
Life is full of difficulties, sometimes things are so tough that it makes us want to give up. I’m sure the few of you who are actually reading this know what trying to say. I mean come on, how many of you lived a single day absolutely perfect day before, with the sun high up, white clouds floating in the seemingly endless sky, lying down on a soft patch of grass without a single worry and having your mother not shout at you. I mean that is my ideal perfect day, I’m not sure of yours.
Difficulty is usually associated with choices. This will bring us worry. What’s the current biggest worry in life? Some might say that it is the global recession; others might say that they are stressed in school. One difficulty I face was actually choosing the correct secondary school for me. There were a lot of choices for me after the PSLE. There was the obvious choice, Victoria, or the alternative, ACS (for those who do not now what that is, it stands for Anglo Chinese school) I was very confused as most of my friends are going to VS, but I have been to ACS before and I feel that the study environment has a much richer feeling. I’m not saying that Victoria is bad or anything, but ACS seems so classy and fancy, their library was state-of-the-art and the school was so well equipped for classes, CCAs and outdoor activities alike. Even most of my good friends were in ACS that’s why I wanted to put it on the top of my list of schools, but there were many obstacles in the way. For one ACS was very far away from my house, I would have to wake up earlier than 6 in the morning and I wouldn’t want that. Another problem was that transportation was a big problem because I would have to change buses twice and that would be a big hassle! When I talked to a few of my older friends, they would tell me that their school would end a 3pm and would reach home at 5pm tired and sleepy(because of the long bus ride). The reason I have brought this up after such a long time was because I have thought of this difficulty many times before and I have thought over it many times thus I feel its right to share this with you now. On the whole, I have no regrets about joining Victoria at all because of the my great teachers and friends and after all,” it’s a place where I belong ”.
That’s all for now=)
