Last Day of GEP Camp

I was reading people's blog's. Someone was lucky enough to have discovered something for themselves during a biology practical. It must've felt awesome... the feeling of discovery and fascination... that feeling every scientist lives for...

The sharing of GEP Camp electives was pretty interesting. I think everyone from 3.8 was looking out for the photo of Jon Tang going horse riding XD

Then there was this retarded cheering competition. Joshua Foo did an awesome job of getting the whole class together to come up with something. Thanks a million Joshua :)

Then after school was NCDCC, which I got really upset about. First was because of NCDCC Day rehearsal from 1.30 to 6. Second was because they made us skip IHS/POD lectures during white space without a second thought. Thirdly was because there was a stay over camp the day before NCDCC Day, starting at 3 pm. Meaning I miss Science Research the millionth time because of NCDCC.

ON TOP OF GIVING ALL MY FRIDAY AFTERNOONS, I SACRIFICE HALF OF EVERY SATURDAY, WAKING UP AT 5AM AND GETTING HOME AT 2PM. AND HALF MY MARCH HOLIDAY. I MAKE THE EFFORT TO HAVE PIANO LESSONS AT A MOST INCONVENIENT TIME OR SKIP KARATE, RISKING FAILING EXAMS AND GRADINGS JUST SO I CAN BE PRESENT. I SACRIFICE MY HEALTH, FALLING SICK AND MISSING SCHOOL THRICE IN A WEEK, AND GETTING DIAGNOSED WITH PNEUMONIA. 

I RISK SO MANY THINGS THAT MEANT EVERYTHING TO ME, YET YOU STILL WANT MORE.

NOW YOU WANT ME TO SACRIFICE MY STUDIES AND MY GRADES AND ALL MY SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PROJECTS AND QUIZZES WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT. THE FACT THAT YOU DON'T ASK BUT YOU DEMAND. THAT'S JUST SELFISH AND RUDE.

YES, COMMITMENT IS IMPORTANT, BUT AS A STUDENT MY FIRST AND FOREMOST JOB IS TO DO WELL IN MY STUDIES, NOT MY CCA. WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I RISK GETTING KICKED OUT OF QUIZZES AND COMPETITION TEAMS AND REVOKED OF CERTAIN POSITIONS BY NOT ATTENDING THEIR MEETINGS? WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT CERTAIN THINGS MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME?
