Behind The Big E

It’s pretty hard to believe that we are almost done a whole term now. Just another week of classes. I know for us first years, it’s a huge shock, ain’t it? Usually we’d still have another two months.

Well, I’d like to think we’ve been working hard enough to be finished by now. Aha! but they have tricked us. Now we have the most epically stressful 2 weeks so far. Dun dun duh! EXAMS, NOOOOO!

At least we had something to take our minds off our inevitable doom this past weekend, here at Totem.

When I heard that we were going to have an actual winter formal, I was pretty excited. Sounded like the good ol’ days of high school. But this time with more friends. Sad but true for many of us. The dinner really caught me off guard. Surprisingly fancy, but I’m a fan of fancy… mostly because I get to get all fancied up, and show off. :P

Following up, we got to get our groove on at the dance, which I must say was not at all fancy… well except all the formal wear, but it was all good. I don’t think the turn out would have been all that great if the rave quality had been missing, and those who came to do some casual snogging got their chance anyways. And compared to Glow, it was very, er… well behaved. That is to say the people that were there were mostly sober, which is always nice. Although weird stuff still managed to happen. Stuff that shall never be spoken of ever again… ever.

So now that we are all de-stressed and such, we get to hit the books once again for the home stretch till the holidays. Oh man, I am glad to be so close! All throughout the past few years, Christmas has been less and less significant, probably for a lot of us, but now it is more than welcome. For once we can go home and relax. No projects due on the day we come back, and no exams to study for.

I don’t know about you guys, but I’ll be gaming it up all break. :D
