2011

This year has been really interesting and by far one of the most important years of my life because it was my last year in high school. I've really learned a lot this year, experienced a lot too. Words can't describe how great it was! I've met so many people, even people from Germany! Heh. This year, I really made the most of the time in high school. Guess you'll never really know what you have until the time when you're going to lose it huh? That's what I think anyway.

Wouldn't replace all the memories that I had this year, not even the bad ones.

Funny conversations.

Being a waitress, sometimes you get to catch on little conversations the customers have and have funny conversations with customers and also the staff. And sometimes, it's the only thing that makes the job nice and fun.

Situation: Serving a group of customers
Me: Drinks?
Customer (Super cute boy!): Green Tea please.
Me: Okay, hot or cold?
Customer : I'm hot. *gestures at friends to ask if they wanted hot or cold tea*
Friends & Me: *starts chuckling and tries not to laugh*
Customer : *slaps forehead and starts laughing* Oh my gosh, this is so embarrassing. I didn't mean it THAT way!

Situation: Bringing dirty dishes into the kitchen (We usually shout "behind!" when we walk in there so the others would know we're behind them)
Worker A: *walks into kitchen with a bunch of heavy dishes* BEHIND!
Worker B: *walks behind Worker A with a few dishes* CIBAI! *smiles widely*
Everyone in the kitchen: *laughs their ass off*

Note: Maybe that might not have been funny when you're reading it but it was seriously damn hilarious.

There's actually more but I can't really remember so too bad! Heh.

Reminiscing.

Thinking back to all the things that I've been through. I miss everything that has happened. I wish the same things could happen again so that I'd cherish the moment more. I miss how everything was less complicating and carefree. Life was much easier when you were younger, now it's just a big bunch of poo. So much responsibilities, duties and all sorts of nonsense that none of us would want to do but we have to.

Remembering all those times when you had everyone giving you all your wants and needs, it just feels miserable knowing that from now on, you have to do it on your own. Well, not exactly I suppose. We still have friends & family that we come across and hustle along with us. We really gotta appreciate every each one of them.

Life's a war and the people you meet are your soldiers. You don't train just one soldier, you train thousands. You might not remember all of their names but you'll always remember that you've fought in the war with them. Some may have not be strong enough to battle along with you but some will stick till the very end of it.

Thinking of this, I am really grateful for everyone that has been there for me.

Complicated things.

Having boyfriends are complicating. Having a crush is complicating. Having someone who has a crush on you is complicating. Relationships are complicating. Everything is just so complicating. My brain is so cramped up with these emotions and I honestly am trying really hard to take it all out. I am trying to stay positive. I am trying to be strong. I want to move on and feel good.

But I think it's just me, I've never heard of anybody going through the things that I just been through. Seriously, it's so messed up that I don't think anybody would understand what I've went through. Everybody would just think I'm stupid to have done the things that I did and stuff.

I have no idea where to go from here.

Work life.

So today is my second day of work an I'm on my break. This is my first job and I'm working as a waitress at Rakuzen, Empire Shopping Gallery. Working is not easy, it's super tiring and it uses up A LOT of energy. There are so many things to remember like where to get this and that, where to keep this and that, what to do when customers come in, what to do when customers leave and the most important part is to SMILE and be FRIENDLY. Some customers can be a big pain in the ass, they ask for a lot of stuff and they don't have manners at all but we just have to take it all in, smile and do whatever they want.

It's only my second day and I'm ranting so much about it, wow. Gonna memorize the menu now since I still have free time.

At the beginning.

High school life has officially ended for me. It's kind of sad, to think that you can't go to school and see the group of people that you've spent most of your teenage years with. High school has been kind to me, I guess. It had it's ups and downs but everything pretty much has them, right? That's life.

6 years of my life spent in 2 different primary schools. 5 years of my life spent in 3 different high schools in which the last one was in a totally different state. 11 years of my life meeting new people from different places. Years that I spent learning what's good and what's not.

Believe it or not, I remember the first days I had in all 5 schools, the friends that I made and the dramas that I went through. Looking back, it's seriously something to laugh about. I wouldn't change any bit of it even if I could, life won't turn out the same if I did.

Everything happens for a reason. Good or bad, it's fate. Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and do the things you don't want to and just pray that it will go fine cause life's not fair and you can't always get what you want.

I've learnt a lot in these 11 years of my school life. Really am grateful for all that has happened, great teachers, events, school activities and for all the people that I've met. But, I'm sure my lists doesn't end there.

Even if this is the end of my school years, there are new beginnings of everything else. A new chapter of my life awaits.
