1st month as a Hwa Chong pupil

One month in Hwa Chong Institution. This is what I think of the school.

The school’s really big. So travelling from one place to another is quite tiring and time consuming. The school interior is very peaceful, especially with the rivers and trees. The classrooms are a bit old, the tables are quite vandalized, some items are quite old, but at least they are still in working conditions and pass the criteria.

Pupils: I would say that all the pupils there including our seniors are very helpful and friendly. Maybe some exceptions, but on the whole, everyone cares about each other. My classmates are very friendly and almost everyone is able to click along with each other quite well.

TEACHERS……ERRR……they are fantastic. Right class ??

But seriously, I would say that all the teachers are very experienced and the materials they give us are very helplful. They are not really fierce, but they know how to handle situations in class very well. Sometimes they get angry, but I believe that what they are doing is to maintain order in the class and to make the environment better for learning so we can do well in our exams and excel further in our studies.

Overall, my 1st month in hwa chong has been an eye opener. Its quite stressful in there, lots of homework, and now, comes exams with many new subjects such as computer, geography, history and 3rd language for some. And the other subjects, English, maths, science and Chinese are not very easy as well, they are being tested quite different from our primary schools.

And the CCAs haven’t even started yet and i'm already struggling with 3rd language, homework and exams, so I better try to adapt to the environment quickly.

My current wish is to do well in the exams. I currently don’t have a target score as I have never sat for a secondary school exam before. I’m not even quite sure how to use the MSG and what result is considered as good. Anyway, it doesn’t matter, just have to try my best and whatever my result is, I still have to work hard for future exams anyway. UGH ! =.=*!!!

LOL.I really hate the locations of the computer lab,science lab,music room and etc.
the classrooms are like isolated from them and when have to rush from our classrooms to the places.Sometimes we were even warned for being late.
