Okay, shall start with Monday. Home-Based Learning. I didn't hate it, neither did I love it.

Pros of HBL: Can wake up late, can eat whenever I want to, can procrastinate whenever I want to 8D

Cons of HBL: Got a freakload of homework to complete.

So then, Tuesday. School was uber boring, but was really looking forward to YOG WAG prelims after that! (: So after school ended, Batch (except Cheryl, who met us at the MRT) made our way to the MRT and then to my house after that. (: It was really cool to see all of my batchmates in my house. (: Ate some cakes. Then we went to Bishan stadium! It was really cool! Everything looks super professional and neat.

And omg the gymnasts are FREAKING PRO. Especially this girl from Russia, Viktoria Komova. Really really really pro. She stuck almost all her landings for all the apparatus! And I didn't see her have a single fall at all. Even during the practices. She does an ARABIAN on the beam okay! And a 2 1/2 twist double layout Uchenko for vault!!! Freaking crazy.

The experience was super fun and exciting! I'm really glad I was able to go for this, cause even though it was the prelims only, the atmosphere was really good. And I can be content knowing that in my life, I have watched an international gym competition live once. (:

And Wednesday was too boring to be even mentioned.

Thursday, school was okay lah. After school had teachers' day concert prep. HAHA was epic lah! Our pyramids are mostly FAIL but got quite a few successful ones.

Friday, today. Had gym concert prep after school. Was quite productive! Taught most of the JB part, just need to piece it altogether!

Tomorrow training will be concert prep... :/ But y'know what, I'd rather train. After watching MIOBI and YOG, I really want to do my best for gym. To try new stuff! I will never know what I am capable of doing if I don't try. (: I don't care if I don't go for comp next year. Really, I don't! I'm not saying this like a sore loser, I just think that deserving people should go. And others deserve it more than me, so I am okay with that! All I want to do is improve myself. To improve my skills. Competing isn't important! The most important is doing what I want to accomplish. (:

Sigh... I feel quite sad for Joyce. I know we weren't exactly nice to her this year, and I definitely feel ashamed. I feel like a hypocrite for even THINKING that she was not being tactful and that she lacked empathy. How about me? Did I ever stop to think how she'd feel to be ignored by us? About her feelings? It is quite appalling about how she had to become really emotional distressed before I realize how unfairly I've been treating her. And Susan, whoever she is, has really taken it too far. Telling Joyce about her flaws is one thing. Continuously flaming her and insulting her is just plain low. No one should be subjected to that kind of derogatory insults. Joyce, if you ever see this, I'm sorry.
