2012: Year in Review

"The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you will see." - Winston Churchill

Good Evening Readers!

I'm blogging twice in a day. Dedication right here guys!  Since there is only a couple of hours left of 2012 I'm going to reflect back on the year that was twenty twelve. This year I was a Senior at QASMT and part of the Class of 2012! I seriously love my cohort and could not have asked for a better group of people to spend my time at QASMT with. 

This year admin decided to be geniuses and changed our timetable where we start with Period 1 and have 'Pauses' where we just stop moving and pause. Anyways, a lot has happened this year and here is a recap of it, in basically no particular order of school events then random events!

QASMT Senior Formal '12

The formal for QASMT was brought forward a term so we could 'focus' on Mocks. Formal is a once in a life time opportunity and it was a very enjoyable experience although the food was a bit terrible. I got my Semi stuff 1/2 hours before and since Formal is more important I got my stuff a day before. LOL. Thank you to Jade's family for holding the pre and Nicole's family for holding the post!

Year 12 Retreat

Year 12 Retreat was a 3 day, 2 night camp and it was so amazing! I loved every single moment of it, and I wouldn't hesitate to go again! The activities that we completed and the battle scars that came with them were completely worth it! So don't even hesitate to go to Year 12 Retreat!

 Bravo!

QASMT Arts Showcase '12

Our Music Captains Eileen and Tim were able to bring back Arts Showcase this year and I'm really glad that they. I swear QA kids are so talented and I'm really glad that they had the opportunity to showcase their talent for us! We were also able to see Harry again! 

Farewell Assembly 

Two weeks before my final exams was the Grade 12 Farewell Assembly! The teacher's item was 'I Come From the Land of IB' and I think it was the best one I've seen by far! It was really great to see the entire school supporting the Seniors of 2012 for the final exams! 

QASMT Graduation '12

Graduation was a day I couldn't not believe that had arrived after 12 years of school! But none the less it was such a great night. I'm really happy to have celebrated end of the International Baccalaureate and High School with my cohort! Thank you to Jade's family for holding our Graduating Party!

And those are my school related highlights! Here are the non-school related ones which including meeting Karise Eden and The Collective 

So these have been some of my favourite moments of 2012. This year has been filled with its ups and downs, but I hope that everyone remembers the good ones and forget the not so good ones! It is the new year tomorrow and I hope that 2013 is a lovely year for everyone!

Happy New Year!

#180912 San Churro

Hello Readers!

Long time no blog, I know I haven't updated in a while but at least I'm blogging now. Mock exams finished during the last week of school, and to celebrate my group and I decided to go to Chocolateria San Churro. Physics kiddies finished their exams on Monday so they had to celebrate end of exams a day later. Caught the bus with Jade, Andy, Nicole and Sianee, and those guys are beyond embarrassing, Nicole has no shame. She also failed at taking a hundred selfies. LOL. We got to San Churros and Jacqueline and Angel were there. Angel was on time for the first time. Jade called Shruti since she ditched us to go on a date with her Uncle, but the Uncle person picked up and Angel was like Hello Osama. 

San Churros has a really nice atmosphere, and its a really good place to just relax with friends or by yourself. The service is okay, they staff did come around a few times asking about our orders which was a tad annoying, but then they fail to put down Jacqueline and Jade's orders so.... shame! I must say, churros didn't taste like what I thought it would, I was surprised that it was crunchy/crispy but now I'm craving Max Brenners waffles. 

Milk Hot Chocolate!

Fondue for Two which I shared with Trisha, because we were too scared to share with one of the Filipinos! 

Photos of the Filipions are blurry because they went spastic while they were eating. Angel even got chocolate on her tie/scarf/belt thing because she missed her mouth when she was drinking her hot chocolate. LOL!

Jade's Choc Cream Sundae/ Andy and Sianee's Crema De Fresa / Jacuqeline's Choc Banana Sundae

I know, don't tell me I'm so attractive. 

 

After San Churros, Jade had to leave for tutor but the rest of us went to Karaoke! Yay! Walked to city, but then Trisha had to leave. Karaoked for a hour and a bit, before Sianee and I left. They finally had Super Bass! Yay! Did our traditional Abba and Adele songs, and we also acted out Gangnam Style. ahaha. It was a really good end of exam celebration since I thought exams were pretty bad, but surprisingly for Maths, Mandarin and English I've done so much better than I thought I would, so I've been really happy! I wish I could say the same for Biology and Chemistry, but oh wait, I can't say anything because Norris is probably still marking them!

Here are some of the selfies that Nicole attempted to take on the bus. Enjoy!

It is really late, and I'm watching The Dictator right now, so good night/morning readers!

Freaking out just a little bit!
