Graduation.....
And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real cool
Stay at home talking on the telephone with me
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be Friends Forever
So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money
When we look back now will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can we ever find a job that won't interfere with a tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be Friends Forever
La, la, la, la
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la
We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be Friends Forever
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be Friends Forever
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be Friends Forever

SAT Examination
The date of our (SD scholars) SAT examination. The day we wished we could repeat. The day we wish we were better prepared for....
Here's a bit of my experience taking the SAT examination that I would like to share with all. Hopefully anyone reading this blog would find it useful.
For me, the SAT examination is somewhat damn difficult, especially the Critical Reading and the Essay part (but not the Math part:)) for my weakness is in English language. Taking the SAT exam without a good preparation; I would consider as suicide.
For the past 3 months before the exam day, I did not had enough practices for the Critical Reading and Writing. Yes, we (SD scholars) do have lecturer for SAT Writing but the thing is: we were so focused on the essay, and essay alone that we (or rather, I) sort of "completely" ignored/forgotten about the other parts of the Writing section (grammar etc.). So, during the exam day, I sort of went through hell for not having a proper preparation.
As for the Critical Reading...yeah...that is another hell I went through. The vocabulary was too high, the passage was too long & difficult to cope with (that is for me. Again as I said earlier, my English sucks). I had headache reading the passage, trying to understand wth is the author trying to convey....
I R.E.A.L.L.Y. wish I was more prepared that day. I really wish I had a lecturer to help & guide me along the way. I really wish I did more SAT practices...*sigh*
*I'll update this CR & Writing with further details later, this is just sort of intro. Hope that those reading this would find it useful..:p*
