Tomorrow's the day; RELEASE OF GCE A LEVELS RESULTS /inserts dramatic bgm/
well, all i can say is that i've done my best for the papers and i can only hope that i did well enough to land me somewhere in a university
(well, my dream is to be in the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in NUS), if not i am actually planning to enter an Arts College and study about arts. yeah. thing is that my parents aren't really pressing about results because ... i'm the only one in the family
(so far) that actually got this far in education. but as for my relatives ... lol they'd be judging if i dont end up somewhere in a university, so yeap. i'm pretty much alright with my relatives but just lol nope, whenever they start talking about my education like they are me. for one, they almost wanted to flip when i chose the Arts stream
(but not so, since my subject combination is actually a hybrid) for my two years in Junior College.
and they went all "so do you know what you want to do in the future?" i really dont like it when people ask me that particular question. you are asking me what i want to do for the rest of my life when i'm literally at the starting point of it. well of course i have dreams but they are pretty much quickly shot down as "this isn't realistic" or "can you even earn enough to feed yourself?". and everyone likes to tell me this,
"not everyone gets a job that they like" why of course we don't. but can't we dream? reality and the sense of survival has killed dreams.
i almost want to get into philosophy or liberal arts
(omg my Yale-NUS dream school /sobs). if i can't get into liberal arts, i will choose japanese studies or language major in english. and then if i can't ... i don't know what else i might be able to enter. mum jokingly said that i might end up majoring in mathematics or chinese
(because i almost didn't take mathematics in JC but in the end i did and i took H2 mathematics).
i should just stop my rants and start my mental preparation for tomorrow.

The Author
looking through the camera lens
day after day, i take pictures. i do stupid things. things like eavesdropping. i develop films in that pitch-black darkness. i make a profit on people's feelings, when all the while, i'm hiding my own.
"it's nothing"

major in psychology and sociology ☆ infp
i'm a writer, want-to-be photographer. into japan, in terms of fashion, music, bands, culture, language and anime/managa. also an avid fujoshi and support the cause of love is equal.
sarcastic and closed in. prefer a book or video game over going outside. i have a hobby of collecting mangas and having deep talks (philosophical topics) with my dad. i can be an intellectually engaging partner, or totally just rubbish.
