I havent been home much lately. My eyes feel like they're about to pop out of their sockets :( During the past few weeks, I found myself in school almost everyday, training from noon to night for NUS RAG day and having countless dance sessions in preperation for the big day. Though the briefcase girls were indignant and unhappy at times due to (______________), the experience as a whole proved to be immensely satisfying at the end of it all. Today morning was THE day, the day all of us had spent weeks gearing up for. We only had one chance to showcase our talents, to give it our all and to do our best to impress the judges. Even though SDE did not win any prizes this year, we certainly did try our best and we "danced like there was no tomorrow" out on the stage. The friendships and strong bonds forged definitely made the whole experience unforgettable yet bittersweet and really, no words can describe the joy and immense pride we sde raggers felt at the end of the performance when we finally managed to stack the boxes on top of one another without difficulty, portraying a beautiful picture to the audience at the end. I was so pleased when I was standing at the side of the stage and hearing people shouting "GO SOPHIA!" I couldn't see who those lovelies were but ahhh I feel the love :) It was no doubt nerve racking at first being up on stage in front of hundreds of people but we raggers got over it and our performance at rag day was, if i say so myself, awesome! :)

College life has been great so far! Lessons proper start next week though ugh. I can't imgaine sitting through all those dull and sleep-inducing lectures again :( But ohwell, there are only four more years before I enter the working/ corporate world and I am not looking forward to it all. Cherish our youth, youth is (unfortunately, not) forever!

Now, I need to rest my poor eyes. Goodnight all!
