Taming the young diplomats

So I assume everyone's been busy mugging for MYE (I've been living in a hole lately, or a foreign land called NTU), and with Pre-U Sem done, I should more or less start mugging too. Yea, I think I should.

Pre-U Sem was an experieance, not to wild about it though, 'cause it was very diplomatic (it should be diplomatic) but I like the idea of youths getting involve with issues regarding Singapore of today. The organizers kept emphasizing the prestige of the Pre-U seminar, us participants being the cream of the crop, future leaders blah blah blah. In my opinion, the seminar is more of the battle of the junior colleges - or more precise the elite schools - on who could come up with the most, longest, complicated, controversial questions, either to show off how smart they are or just to shoot the other school down during the parallel presentations.

My seminar group was ok, a mixture of Year Ones and Year Twos, Poly student and even an IP student, but it was very cliquey 'cause some of the girls from the higher end are obviously after this only supposedly hot judo guy from an elite school. We had a lot of eccentric characters, heck I think most of the participants are uniquely weird, such characters you will never find in MI. My only solace were those nights with Team Millennia at Darwina's room, since she was sleeping alone, we laughed till we rolled on the floor, and made so much noise till the security guard had to chase all 10-15 of us out of her room, and afterwards we still could escape from lights out by having a night escapade around NTU campus.

You could tell the different bond each school has, some of my friends from my SG( seminar group) do not even know their other schoolmates who are also taking part in Pre-U sem. And the girls (technically everyone) in JCs are naturally bitchier and more competitive, compared to the friends I made in MI, which was kind of a rude wake up call for me to push myself to work harder.

I was down with fever on the 3rd day and had to be sent back home early. I was kinda relief 'cause I really needed the rest anyway. Ive been falling ill quite often lately, like just before I went for Pre- U sem I was sick with slight fever too.

Oh, I also had the most nicest roomie ever, Medalene from JJC. She's in Year 2 too and somehow she's a big fan of MI. We instantly click, bitched about our groupmates every single night, went everywhere together and she even helped me iron my white blouse. I'm going miss her loads.

Oh another thing, the people who went for Pre-U sem are also going for SMUN.

I can't wait for dance practices (:
and my ice-cream date with baby (((:
