## Life is sad even for Year 1s

Guess what... It's the Friday of the third week of school!!! I've made it this far... Oh yeah I know you're probably thinking it's just a mere three weeks. What you don't know is that how every single day is a struggle... To drag yourself out of bed, face your life, yourself and everyone, and drag yourself to school. Ok enough of this... Let me give a little update on my school life recently then.

School starts at 7:40 everyday and as I take the school bus, I usually reach at 7:10. Which is pretty good because I can use that time to finish up my homework and copy a bit from my classmates ( Hardly have i ever completed a single assignment without some help/ideas/suggestions from my classmates. Well, team spirit! ) the downside is that I have to wake up real early. Like REALLY early. 5am sharp and I have to be out of bed. T_T

AND FOR THE MATTER, I HAVE A WHOLE POOPLOAD OF HOMEWORK EVERYDAY!!! So it's basically like this: You have Math lesson,you have Math homework. You have Japanese lesson, you have Japanese homework... etc same goes for other subjects. Just speaking about today, I have Chinese, Japanese, Math, Math Olympiad, Chemistry, English and Physics homework. And they're not exactly that easy to complete-especially Math and Science subjects. After all, it's NUS High School of MATHEMATICS and SCIENCE. So... Just have to accept fate T_T generally I take about half an hour++ for each assignment... There's seven assignments, so that makes up about four hours... Doesn't sound a lot? Well, keep in mind that I am dismissed at 6:00pm every Monday, Thursday and Friday. Adding one hour++ of travel, that's approximately 7:30pm that I reach home. Then I have to shower, have dinner, rest a bit, and finally, do my homework for FOUR hours. I'd have to burn the midnight oil if I want to finish all those homework ( by the way for your information there's a 10% penalty for late submission-which means that if I submit my homework like, one day late, I get 10% of my marks deducted. And all my homework are graded - counted in the end-of-year CAP ). Not forgetting that I have to wake up at five the next morning. So in the end I get at most 5-6 hrs of sleep. ( 3 hours nowadays )

which is so fucking tiring.

Haiz. Oh yah. I'm in the Nobel house - green. Yuck. And I got placed into my third choice CCA - St. John Ambulance Bridgade. Yikes.
