continual ramblings

I'm at TPJC's computing class now. I made up my mind in the first 10 minutes not to take it if i do get to VJC. Flash can be just as tedious and problematic, but this is much different. Anyway, i must say, MJC, in my most down to earth opinion, is at the very least, five times better than TPJC. This school's classrooms are dreary with black tinted windows. the doors remind me of prison cells. The facade doesn't look pleasing, and there are plenty more if i talk about the facilities itself. I like MJC for not representing what i know for four years, to be another Secondary school. I have had enough of the same seats and tables, the same environs and the same everything. I really hope that while VJC's interior may be even older, it isn't as 'secondary-schoolish' as TPJC.
On to other things.
You know, when you think about it, we are already 16 going on 17. Time is short and ever-crucial, and soon all of us boys will be heading off to NS. After NS, we all know the route of convention, but the point is, all of us are growing up too fast. It may sound like longings of an old man, but i want to be a child longer. I want to go to school more, and make more friends i know i will miss when i graduate.
Why did i think of this? I'm usually not one to contemplate life per se, i leave that to emo and wistful peers. But really, i attended the Pre-U seminar meeting yesterday, and the presentations by various groups said just one thing. In a few years time, Singapore's ageing population is going to be ranked 4th in the world, according to my peers. The simple fact is that we aren't being as amorous as we should be, and lacking babies can only contribute to a case such as this.
I don't want to walk down a street in a few years to come, seeing nothing but greying people and none of that youthful brilliance that fills the schools and institutions. I implore all my friends, once they are legal and afford it, to go farkie farkie! (Mark said this as he was feeling super horny at that time. Its Thai slang for the sacred act of... ahem ahem) =D
No lah but now i'm simply irritated that i didn't go to badminton yesterday. Once i heard Jake wasn't coming, i decided not to go. How the heck would i have known that Jhin Chee would be coming, or that some (supposedly) chio girls would be at the opposite court?

I think i ought to blame it on Yichen. Since he seems equally irrational. Such is only rational.
