The Past
The shadows of the past keep lurking around,
Though it can be ignored, they will always be there.
To suppress the negatives of the past,
Requires strength beyond imaginable.
The bitterness of the past linger in my mouth,
Though it can be washed down, the after taste remains.
To salvage the hurts of the past,
Requires sweetness beyond imaginable.
The scars of the past paints a picture in my life,
Though it can be faded, the colours never washed off.
To forgive the origin of the past,
Requires faith beyond imaginable.
"Accept the past as the past, without denying it or discarding it..."

Flash back
As I stood
amidst the students in the exam hall...
Walking down the rows, looking at them scribble intensely on the answer script...
Flash back of my own school days came flooding into my mind...
I can hear the
familiar tune of the bell even as I alight from the bus...
It's gonna be yet another sprint into the school...
Scrambling through the gate, barely making it in time for attendance taking...
As the rest of the my school mates go through the motion of singing and taking the pledge...
I was already planning which tutorial to complete(copy) during my breaks...
Lectures and tutorials were spent mostly trying to stay awake...
Acting has became my profession, looking so studious yet my mind is set elsewhere...
Sitting beside the right person during tutorials is of
utmost importance...
Someone who is willing to share her answer if the tutor ever picks on me...
And I'm forever praying that the tutors cannot remember my name...
CCA trainings were the best time of the day...
The jog to the park was never fulfilled, ending all the time at the playground instead...
But we trained hard and played hard...
With only 7 players, and no coach, we managed to clinch the runner-up title...
This is the one team which I'm truly proud of...
As the 'A' levels approaches, it's like a mad rush to catch up on all the work I've earlier neglected...
Taking only 4 subjects, I have a total of 7 'forced' consultations to attend each week...
Some in a group, some on a one-to-one basis...
But the long hours the tutors have
sacrificed to coach me...
Their patience and tolerance....i will forever be grateful...
A short but memorable 2 years in college....
I really do miss my school days...
