Another Road ( Reminiscing School Life)

[Victoria]

Wow, 11 years of school just over like that. i met so many characters through my journey and learnt some important lessons of life.

I guess school life has moulded my character, the people that made me angry, the ones that just made you laugh mostly (i did alot of this at school-laughing)+(getting up to tiny mischief), the times you have to stick up for yourself or you just get trampled. The teachers that expected so much, going all out there and the ones who did not bother. School...the birth and death of slang words and pure stupidity lol. Going through some embarassing moments. Its funny how everybody was always scared of receiving awards in fear of tripping over on their way there and the way we all used to run to the canteen so quickly when there was a week of free lunch, then remembering to compose ourselves when you get there. I guess everybody had their fair share of embarassment and fame.

School life is like a mini-version of the life of an adult; training your confidence, knowledge and understanding; questioning your opinions and motives as well as other peoples. Mostly i was able to apply the maxim of stepping into another person's shoes and walking around in it (basically seeing things from another persons view) which helped me tremendously to understand other people. I remember when i had to push myself beyond boundaries i never knew i could go beyond till that moment in time.

I feel that God held my hand all the way through, the decisions i made and the opportunities that was laid on the table for me. I remember the Poetry Slam, the Sports Days, the competitions and trips, the times when everyone had to randomly stick together(TEAMWORK!)- talk to people you would not have met anywhere else.

I have to say that secondary school has been the most challenging, its when my character has really been tested as well as my faith(mostly); watching people change as i probably changed and the one thing that is thrust upon everybody....PEER PRESSURE! (this two word phenomena did not affect me that badly; i'm not one to follow the crowd and that kind of stuff even if it means me going on alone)but its worth mentioning because you can't escape it totally; making the 'right' friends normally helps.I wil
However, i feel a sense of liberation as i await the plans that God is yet to unfold me on the next road of my journey. I'm Nervous because of the uncertainties. yaay my first blog

SO , i never dreamed i will say this but- SCHOOL LIFE IS THE BEST!!!!!:D

Girl I totally understand why you say that because it's like first you're going through all these wonderful and strange experiences and then secondary school is all over. It's weird cause it's a routine that you go through for years and all of a sudden it's done? It's awesome and scary and challenging all at the same time. Who would have ever thought that we would miss high school?

amen to that.....I'll be graduating in a few short months ( actually in one school year but that time'll fly as quickly as a wink of the eye) and I'm so scared of what I might face when I leave my little "haven" called Secondary school:D
