SI :)

i know i should really be down to catching up on my lectures and readings and all but really, of late, i have been so restless and studying is taking forever. i have had endless thoughts of giving up (though it's just the beginning) and switching to another course, something more 'me'. i cant believe that im giving in to facts and memorising when really im just more artsy fartsy and in a way, more 'go with the flow' and creative person. arrghh! i will not be defeated!! i'm hanging, and hanging....


anyway, since i couldn't sign up for this year's lifesaving teacher course, i finally gave in to signing up for the swimming instructor course, something which my mom has been bugging me to take. i was hesistant intially, because i was so depress with coping with school already but then i thought, why not just go for it! i didn't exactly wanna waste anymore time, what with the rat race of being certified in whatever possible thing in today's world. and besides, it's something that could possibly bring joy to my already sciency world of study. :( the point is, it was my first attempt at SI and i PASSED :) yay! you know i wasn't really expecting to get through at all. i told myself before the skill test that if i were to fail it would be alright because i could always come back and try again. what more, speaking to friends about the SI course, they have told me how 'bias' and difficult it was to get in. i am no star athlete, but just an ordinary person with and ordinary hope of getting into the course and of course i am damn right excited and happy that with just the first try, i got in!! i was pretty stunn at first, because the people i know who have tried many times, did not make it once again. i know i am lucky and with mix emotions at first, now comes relief and happiness. i'm bursting and i can't wait for the course to begin because it is a whole new chapter for me in life.
