;the arrival of juniors,
post-promos activity,
and the one down two to go
11th October is one of the most thrilling days of this week. We are supposed to meet two teams (One team was from Tianjin and the other one was from Jiangxi) of our juniors at nine. However, when we arrived at Changi Airport, we found out that the two flights that took off from Tianjin and Jiangxi were delayed. And we had to wait for almost two and a half hours.
Well, what could we do? Hanging around the airport might help us to spend some time. My friend and I found a nice bookstore, and we spent most of the time there.
Actually I did not want to go to any bookstore. I had spent too much on books. Well, you know, sometimes I really hate buying books. Of course I would like to choose the best one to my, but the thing is, the best books always got series, which means I need to buy all of them, like my vampire novels, if I want to have the whole collection of them. No wonder it cost me a lot!
When we got bored, we went back to the entrance of Terminal One, where the Jiangxi teams would went out after they fetched their luggage at belt sixteen. The arrival timetable had shown that the plane had landed. We were more anxious, pacing up and down, back and forth. Finally, the glass door slipped open, they went out. Soon the Tianjin team joined us. We went back by a booked bus, and the juniors also got a lot stuff to do in the hostel. I went to sleep at three A.M.
I did not be able to attend most part of the post-proms activity on the next day and the following day, because I needed to hang out with my juniors. Actually, I did not attend the last post-promos activity at all on the day when the proms result came out because of this. I soon got my maths and English scripts. I did well in English paper. Then we went back to LT3 when the science scripts would be returned to us. I could see that most students had the same opinion, which is return bio scripts, the one they did well first, and return physics scripts last. But we got our chem promo scripts first, then bio. I looked so bad when I saw my bio paper, but when I realized some people started to cross their fingers, I knew the physics scripts were returning back. Still, bio is the only paper I did so badly.
Next week got OBS, still got stuff to buy. Will be busy these days. But I know I’ll have something more to write after the event.
