Three months, 12 weeks, one semester..

Time really flies, it has been a year since A-levels, and now it's the end of the first semester in school..

It was just less than half a year ago when I didn't even know where my future lies.. ( not that I'm clear right now, I'm still wondering whether I took the right course, I don't even know what a business student would work as.. apart from marketing... and I'm really bad at writing and talking which is suppose to be the trademark of business students....)

As the exam draws near, we are given more time to study on our own. Finally, a breather... I suddenly realize that I don't have friends that I can seek help from.. and I'm wondering how my social life is going to progress in Uni.. It's been a semester in school and strictly speaking, I don't feel connected to anyone.. Is it my brought up that's so different? Or is it that I'm finally living among the "Singaporeans" and not "foreigners" anymore??

A mere 12 weeks, aka 12 lessons for each module, less than 20 times you meet a person.. how does one make friends? We are so focused on getting the best grade we can, if you're lousy or you don't fit in, you get left out.... It's so different from JC when we had two years, taking our own sweet time to improve our grades and nurture our friendship along the way... I guess staying in hostel with your schoolmates does provide ample opportunities for one to spend time with others..

Come to think of it, I suppose work life is the same, maybe even worst... with 5.5 working days a week, minus the time with GF/BF/spouse, where would one be able to find time with friends? unless you're working in the same company....

Just a few days ago, a found an ex-classmate's blog, which kinda link me to a few other ex-classmates.. to think that they are actually still in touch although they are miles apart while me, staying less than an hour's journey from my friends, haven't talked or met up with each other just to catch up....
