Ah! Finally created my own blog thingy, thought it was going to take hours, but to pleasant surprise, only used up 3 mins of my (precious) time.

Anyway, first day of jc yesterday was awful, had a skull-splitting headache yesterday which made it extremely painful to smile,talk,think,listen,breathe at the same time. I think the headache was caused by the heat or an overdose of adrenaline, but my mum offered another diagnosis-excessive consumption of alcohol. I mean, c'mon, it was only 1/2 a glass of wine on New Year's Eve.
Unfortunately, I think I sounded unconvincingly friendly to the ppl at HCJC..The first fifteen mins of arrival were absoulutely terrifying, the only Crescentian down there, and I stuck out like a sore thumb in my yellow uniform. It is during times like these that I curse the moron who made the uniform so translucent. Another peeve: my weird name, I had to repeat my name at least twice everytime during self-introductions, somehow,pple always mistake it for Hongwei, or Kongwei or something ghastly sounding...Thank Goodness I found some other girls who were alone as well, super nice bunch they are, and I think the competetiveness is mostly restricted to the science pple. Am now feeling ambivalent about being either a Historian or a Geographer, but leaning slightly towards Geography, considering the fact that I was a Geog student in Sec sch. Seroiusly hope Monday will be better. Or at least stupid headache will subside.Determined to have a blast at JC, and will not let irritating bodily malfunctions hinder my plans.
