Goodbye, STPM ; my souvenirs.

EPIK HIGH'S '99' on replay. Stacks of  David Choi (okay fine, 3.) & one Alexa Yoshimoto to add to my playlist. A couple of RPG to be installed. I'm set for one month-ish of nothing but FUN.

With that, my last paper is DONE!
Honestly, it felt a little surreal handing in that answer sheet to the invigilator but yeap, I'm now officially free!!!! (Well, at least until September or so that is ;) )

Had the almost compulsory 'mamak' session and talk about our future varsity days & how difficult BM paper was. All I can say is that, it was totally unexpected and I already found that I made a mistake. A MISTAKE at one of the question which I'm so called confident in. My mind could only go on about, " Oh gosh, what if all the others that I was sooooo confident in would end up with the same result too?"

Omooooo. T_____T

Ahh, forget it. It's over now and the last thing I want to do is to torment myself over something that I obviously can't change. Either way, no regrets whatsoever. :)


Right now, I'm looking forward to that *possible* Penang trip next week. Setting up the Christmas tree later tonight. Ready to unleash my creative side! And, making a prezzie list. Wahhh, freedom didn't taste this good since SPM. I mean, this is my LAST major public examination. No more school, no more uniform. That 1 year & half was pretty sweet, honestly. Can't believe I finally completed my Pre-U and survived. Wasn't that bad as most think it would be hehehehe.

Talks of university choice, job-hunting, what-to-dos and what course to take seems to be the main thing my friends and I are on about. I mean, what would you expect of us school leavers anyways? :b

********

The most surreal thing is probably the thought of not having my rakan seperjuangan by my side anymore. I mean, no more Suhadah's "crazy/meroyan" time (peak time : late mornings - noon-ish), going crazy over all things YG Entertainment & the beautiful Korea with Lorraine & Syafa, hanging out with boys of 6A2 (Aizad, Iskandar, Arshad & Din) with their silly antics in tow (of course hahaha) .

Friendship like these don't just come & go. They stay with you forever. I will miss all the memories made. All the deep conversations, the difficult time we braced through together, the happy times we shared. Cliché but true. 

I am going to miss having a good laugh & mini story-telling session during Sejarah with teacher-lifelong friend Puan Rohaya or affectionately known as Mek Yah to us. Truly like a mother to us, we turn to her for words of comfort and wise advice like a friend but above all, like a respected maternal role in our Form 6 life.She is one amazing multitask-er and Sejarah period is never a bore with her around.

Getting daily life lesson/survival tips from our lovely Puan Sow. She is probably one of the most gangsta' Bahasa Malaysia teacher you will ever meet. I love how she tell us as it is, not sugarcoating stuff to make things better. She ultimately became our mediator and again, nothing but wise partings from her. I'm thankful for all the lesson for a subject (that I once deemed as a bore and difficult) that helped make things so much easier to understand and to fall in love with.

Also, not forgetting the sweetheart of the class, Puan Wong, who continue to inspire me to study/work harder on her subject, Pengajian Perniagaan. Sometimes, I wonder if she was the one to sit for the STPM or us. I mean, her willingness to go all out to find out information, & read up the night before just so she could explain the terms & lesson to us. And also, for her to relentlessly to motivate us.

and also, Puan Lim, the most dedicated Pengajian Am teacher who goes out all the way to impart extra knowledge even if we're (technically) not  her class. All the extra lessons, extra notes and extra knowledge alongside the STPM mini-tips definitely help. She never stop telling us how we can do this ; that PA is not impossible to do. She believes that if we set our mind to it, nothing is impossible. ;)

MUET teacher, Puan Sharon Chan! How can I leave out such a bright, vibrant character. Learning English from her was definitely a breath of fresh air. Her gung ho spirit when it comes to teaching simply catch on you. I love her take on MUET ; she is definitely not your average English that is for sure. I appreciate that she is constantly challenging us to be better, to be more informed, to always strive for more, to never just settle for a pass. I mean, behind that tough love, she just wants the best for us. All I can say that, you're in good hands and that her class is definitely an eye-opener.

Our main Pengajian Am teacher, Encik Rozaim for his aegyo ; that he is not afraid to be silly with us and for all the knowledge that money can't buy. He keeps us updated with all the current issues in the country and also, in other foreign countries. Not forgetting, his ceaseless patience with us and his passion to teach us crazy & misfit group of students is something to be treasured. He thought us that learning is lifelong thing and that knowledge is shared both ways.

Not forgetting all my previous teachers as well,

Datin Nor Hasmah, who is our sunlight, constantly pouring out motivations & is ever so positive. Soft-spoken, despite her title, she is one of the most humble and down-to-earth person ever. She is definitely one of a kind. I have never seen her get angry or lose her temper at us... not even once. But instead, she imparts words of wisdom, continuously encouraging us.

Puan Doreen, with her can-do attitude is definitely infectious on anyone. She chose to believe in us and chose to take a risk on us & defy all the negative labels that has unfortunately been stamped on fellow 6R2/6A2s.We became the catalyst and changing perceptions of many... and this is all because of her. With that, we are able to take on important roles in school and actually do something for the school and its community. For that, I want to thank her for all the motivation and the opportunities that was offered to us.

Puan Tuan Norhayati, who first taught us Business Studies, helped lay out important foundation in our learning as well as good understanding the subject.The foundation definitely helped when we continue in Upper Six. Her patience and the fact that she took extra effort to review lessons the next day was something that was important in our learning process. She took extra care to make sure we understood her lesson and I thank her for that.

And last but definitely not least, my friends who have been by my side since Lower Six, words does not simply justify our friendship and all the things we've been through. But still, I thank you for it has been an amazing adventure with all of you.

With that, I'm eternally grateful for Form 6 life, all the things it had taught me and all the things that came with it.
