Penultimate.

Been running around the school for the entire day today, I even walked back in the glaring sun just now.

Today we had another photo session for the clubs and stuff, and it was really tiring and hectic. But that’s not the point of this point, this post isn’t about what we did today or how we arranged the people or even how we tried to keep ourselves calm in the midst of hardship.

The reason why I’m typing out this post, is not because that my birthday’s tomorrow, no, it’s cause I feel like writing something out. For the past 16 years of my life, I feel like I’ve been trying to hard to make everyone happy, but then again, I feel like I’ve not been putting enough to make everyone happy.

“You can’t satisfy everyone in life,” that’s what I would tell myself, but the more I tell myself that, the more I try to. I try to make up for the mistakes that others have made, when I’ve done nothing wrong at all, just to have a neutral relationship with everyone. At least I try to, try to not have enemies in my life.

But with that being said, you can’t live a life without a few enemies once in awhile. I’ve outgrown, I’ve learnt to stop thinking about what others say and continue living how I want to live. For the past 16 years, honestly, not bragging, but amongst my friends I’ve probably changed the most. I know I’ve changed a lot, for the better and for the worse.

From that Form 1 kid who just wants to hang out with popular kids, to that Form 2 boy I was, which started finding real friends instead of people who uses you. And when I was in Form 3, I learnt that even the people you put trust in the most, can turn their backs on you, and want to walk out of your life forever. Last year, I learnt to recover from my downfall. And this year, I just want to live to be a happier person.

Happy birthday Jia Wei, happy birthday.
