Life in a polytechnic and secondary differ rather drastically. The academic schedule is definitely tougher, your surroundings are bigger, and of course, you get to choose what you want to wear to school - though even that can sometimes be tedious. Towards the end of each semester, most students would be really busy rushing out their assignments and projects. Poly students do quite a number of presentations and on presentation days, formal attire would have to be worn.
Though a little troublesome, it can be rather cool. Imagine you entire class or module group in formal attire. If the presentation is held in a tutorial room, it's fine because there is only your class. However if a presentation is held in a lecture theatre, it can be rather pressurizing. Your entire module group will be present and from where you are standing, you are able to see everyone clearly. Fret not though. If you are well prepared, you have nothing to be afraid of. As time goes by, one's confidence will naturally build up, preparing you for your bright future ahead.
YOG is just round the corner. A number of us are volunteers and I'm pretty sure it’s going to be great fun. To be able to part of the first ever YOG is such an honour. We're thankful to be given this opportunity.
On a more serious note, the semestral exams are just round the corner. We do take exams too! Study hard everyone!!



'We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.' - Wilson Woodrow
