There are many factors that explain why this term is going to be ridiculous.
1. Outward Bound Singapore
2. School Tests
3. Outward Bound Singapore
4. Outward Bound Singapore
5. Outward Bound Singapore
6. Outward Bound Singapore
Ok, well maybe there are only two. Outward Bound School is going to be fun and thrilling, but why am I all tensed up over it? It's because of a damn medical checkup. After no foreign objects coming in contact with my skin for two years already, my fear arrived.
I received a letter from OBS, that they required a medical checkup. Worser than that, I was to do it by next Tuesday, worse news, I just got the letter yesterday, Best of the worst news ever, I have to do it tomorrow.
Many people say it's no big deal, adapted from Yahoo answers : from that writer girl
I remember how nervous I was when I had my first blood test. Don't worry, everybody gets a little nervous but I know you'll be fine. Here is what I do: Find something to stare at on the wall, ceiling or floor, anything in the room... it could be a crack in the wall or a picture... When I had my first blood test I stared at the wallpaper, there were birds on it. So I just looked at that bird and before I knew it, it was over and I was fine! Tell your nurse that you're a little nervous and she'll be really careful and quick for you. Ask her to tell you when she's about to do it... It helps to be prepared. Here is what the nurse will do: She will take a rubber band and tie it on your arm just above your elbow. It feels a little weird but it won't last long! She will take a little alcohol swab to clean off the spot on your arm, it will probably feel cold. Then, she will let you know that it's time. You'll feel a little prick... it's sort of like a pinch, or getting pricked by a thorn.... actually it's not so bad. If you have ever used a needle and thread for sewing and accidentally stuck your thumb, it feels a little like that... but it won't itch or sting afterward because the needle will be clean and so will your arm! Anyway, it will probably take less than a minute to do the whole thing, (including the nurse's preparation.) When she is done, the nurse will put a nice clean cotton ball on the inside of your elbow and she'll fold your elbow "closed" so that you won't bleed. Then she'll come back and stick a band aid over the cotton ball and you'll be all done! Ask your Mom to take you out for your some kind of special treat for being so brave! I know your Mom will be proud and you should be too! The good thing about blood tests is that most people don't need to have them very often! It's good to get it out of the way though, all part of growing up I guess. Best of luck! Remember, just focus your eyes on something and try to distract your mind... think of your favorite song or pet, or any happy thought.
Lengthy but meaningful. Yeah everybody will surely get a blood test/ medical check up when they are Sec 3 for Outward Bound, but Sec 2, it's too early!
Secondly, tests.
I performed badly this term. I lost my confidence.
For Chinese, I got an A2, for English a B3, for Maths, currently B3, 27/40, oh man, i thought i could get 30! History and Geog, would probably fit the criteria for hardest tests on this whole year.
Out of the green, and into the blue, or wadever, I got to know a new song.
Really really really really really really really really really really really really really really catchy.
