Since happiness is derived by reality / expectations by some psychologists, I can say that I am quite pleased with myself right now, that I am in CSE and that I did not expect to be in CSE or any other Special programs, either IPSP or CSE...
My dream was like a bubble made from a bubblegum (even though they are illegal in Singapore) and by the end of the EOY, it just went "pop!" and I was unable to create a new one right until I received the SMB Message from Mr Loh regarding our class allocations. It was then that I was still able to create a bubble. and this never decrease in size but rather increase. Being in CSE has been the best choice in my entire life so far, and by saying so far, I hope that I will be able to make better choices in the future.
Being in CSE, the prestige and honour of even saying that I was in CSE already blew my mind when I received the SMB Message, it was too unbelievable and unexpected that I could enter CSE even with my MSG being 1.67 and i wasn't even called down for interviews :) However we still had to deal with the stereotypes that we were "muggers" and that we had no lives, and being ostracised by some of our classmates who we were not that close to.
Even though I reached my expectations last year, I plan to do better this year and scale the mountain and reach the peak. These are my current expectations:

1) Math : A1
2) Physics : A1
3) Chemistry: A1

8) IHC: A2 or above
MSGs:

Term 3: 1.67 or below
EOYs: 1.5 or below

b. Work as a good council member and listening to what the Chairman says
c. Do what is required of you

b. Being more cheerful and try to help more in discussions
c. Trying to attend 2 out of 3 meetings a week including GM

Well, my expectations as you can see are quite high, and this is because I think quite highly of myself :D I will try my best to work towards these aims and excel in every field that I am in, be it in Council or Academia.
For my blog, I will be trying my best to post up about two posts a week and these will mostly be my thoughts and reflections to the newspapers' articles. Please feel free to comment on my blog :D
