Fare Thee Well...

Today was our farewell party. As in, the second years organized this party (and the first years paid for it) where some of them sang, made some of us speak, gave away "awards" and so on. The best award was the 100% Attendance Award, won by the empty red plastic chair that represented B, bless him.

So it was fun. Our class, being our class, unenthusiastically participated in the first game, except for the few "enthu cutlets" (thanks be to El for the term) that loved the idea of winning a brightly coloured plastic comb, which was the "prize" for winning these...um...games. I doubt there's anything our class would enjoy. And I mean that. It's a sad thing, but it comes from being in The Place I Study for too long.

No one cried, which was a little disappointing. I was secretly hoping for some embarrassing pictures of teary faces and sudden displays of love and affection that we could put up on popular social networking sites and tag everyone, etc. But yeah, looks like we don't really love each other or the Place We Study In very much. Not that it makes the slightest difference to me, mind. I'll keep in touch with whoever keeps in touch with me.

My day went something like this - class, class, class, valedictory-function-where-I-got-three-certificates-a-medal-and-a-trophy-that-is-now-broken, class, free hour, posing-for-pictures, posing-for-pictures, taking-pictures, taking-pictures, posing-for-pictures, posing-for-pictures, attending farewell and walking back home with Sweet Boi.

No, he doesn't walk around with candy, he's just a really sweet boy whose sensitive side rivals mine. No, he's not gay. Just very sensitive. We had a long talk as we walked the 4 kilometers back to The Place Where I Live. Very interesting, very enlightening, etc.

And tomorrow is the FINAL research paper submission. Which is a relief, because I was kinda getting sick of saying "research paper in progress! DO NOT DISTURB" on my GTalk status message.

Now it will read "AAAH!!! Psychology Practical Record to be written!!! DO NOT DISTURB!!!"

Ah, college life. I'll miss living on the edge, but something tells me I will also be eternally thankful when my classes end in three days.

Till later, ta!
