We waited for Godot.. and were rewarded.
I'm going to miss my English 4U class very much. Our drama unit was the best unit of the semester, when we all got to bond properly(sort of) through all our nerves and bad acting. I absolutely loved doing the play... it was so darn awesome, and the credit goes fully to Mr Wise who pushed us and made us step out of our comfort zone. For choosing this play, for being the best director... ever. Honestly, if it wasn't his amazing organizational skills, our play would be messy, scattered, amateur-ish, like all the rest. I'm so glad he didn't make us do Hamlet, and took a risk with an absurdist play which challenged us and drove us to work harder. But we still had fun. :)
It was amazing.
I managed to finally obtain a proper group photo of us from Mwesiga, and hey, I was one of the lucky ones to have my hat on! :D I can't say I'm very close to my English classmates at all, but we enjoyed a lot of things together, and the best moments were when we were all in a rash over the planning and executing of the Wise's surprise birthday party. It was extremely scary when things kinda got out of hand and we had to improvise... but my heart was beating so fast when they were lighting the candles, because I was so afraid he was going to come out to hunt us girls down for our sudden 'bathroom' disappearance. XD
But hey! It all turned out awesome! He didn't even expect a thing, and was throughly caught off-guard. YAYYY for Period 4!
The Wise Surprise.. in motion. XD
Most of my friends though, were made in C&C class. We did have quite an epic last day of the semester... with loads of photo-taking and camwhoring and laughing and fooling about.
Can't you tell now? XD
Darn I love Melora's face. She makes me laugh so much.. and it was a real eye-opener and real fun throughout the course. Academically, I wouldn't say it's very helpful, it was similar to world issues which I'm taking next semester. But it was very fun, very warm... and very interesting.
I'm so glad I'm having Ms Shelley for I&F next semester.. and I'll be math-free! MATH FREE! NO MORE ADVANCED FUNCTIONS OR CALCULUS HAHAHAHA. *sob* I hated maths so much. I really, absolutely, did. Still do. But my math worries aren't over, unfortunately, I'll still have some general stuff to cover in university. Stupid scumbag American educationists. *grumblegrumblegrumble*
Overall, I'm really, really happy to have moved to CPU. It's not as widely appraised academically compared to the IBDP... but I'm very happy here. I'm very happy. I love the company. I love my lecturers, my friends. I like the modest amount of work I'm put through. I enjoy them(except math, duh).
Mum was right. Why should people suffer through something they don't want to do? I can't even imagine what it would be like now if I had stayed on in the IB.
I still feel slight tinges of regret, but I'm very glad I decided to change. God put that feeling in me last year for a reason... I knew that I had to follow it. I knew there was a purpose in it.
A good purpose. At least, that's what I believed in.
