What I would Remember most after leaving Secondary School.

When others told me that I would experience something that would affect my life drastically when I go to Secondary school, I refused to accept it. They told me that friends in Secondary school would be forever as they would go through lots of ups and downs with you in your life. After experiencing almost 5years in school, I finally agreed on what others said.

Still remember the day when I first set foot in the school, being one of the bigger size students in my Primary school, I was amazed because everyone was like a moving tower to me. I told myself that I'm no longer the student who goes around bullying others because the brothers here look strong and fierce. I remembered being bullied by those seniors and that was when I told myself that what others said was just bullshitting. I do not have any friends, nor do I have anyone who studied the same Primary school as me. I was depressed and down, but told myself I can make it through till the end of this education.

Secondary 3 was all about fun, by now, I got to know more friends and they became a pillar of strength and confidence to me. They are competitive but generous. They shared their notes so as to get good result as a whole and not just individually. They would help you if your results are bad and they would even go to the extent of forcing you to study despite whether you like it or not. When I got into trouble and show my temper, they are the one who are not afraid of you and constantly telling you to cool down. This is what I call true friendship, we grew up together in this little environment and walks the journey to be responsible adults. Nevertheless, when they ask me out to enjoy, I would always be a 'spoil-spot' and reject their offer because they are still a stranger to me and I'm always having negative thoughts about them.

Now I'm in the 'last lap' and reaching the 'finishing point' in 3months time, friends to me are very important. They constantly asked me out to study with them and we formed a study group. This study group consists of people who jokes around but serious at times, people who topped the cohort, people whose other subjects are in good grades and most importantly, people who are not selfish and teach you the right thing. These people in my study group are my best friends, we had fun together, cry together and also grow up together.

To me, these friends are very important, I will remember how they used to make fun of me, how we mugged during exam period, breaking down because of the stress level and most importantly, the encouragement that they gave me. Constantly telling me not to give up and always be there for me when I need them. These friends are friends that you would never find after you stepped into your next phase of education, these friends brought great impact in my life and also, because of them, I'm a better person now.

Thanks for being my friends despite throwing tantrums at you all, I enjoyed my Secondary school life, have you?
