i have a feeling that this might be another long entry...

sociologists always like to ask the question of 'what if...'
and so, being a sociology major, let me ask... what if...
... i managed to get through the appeal to go MJ instead of SR?
... my clique of friends from tk went SR with me instead of MJ?
... tk gang or 2A04 did well and all went into the same uni?

what if #1: i managed to get through the appeal to go MJ instead of SR?
i would not have known all the friends that i made in SR - which has been a dramatic change in my life that i will deem it as a beautiful accident
i would not have met 'the one' - that was some some major surprises/changes in my life in terms of the love aspect (even though nothing came out of it eventually)
i would have been much closer to the tk gang rather than being still close but not very close now as compared to last time - which i felt was a big regret in my life

what if #2: my clique of friends from tk went SR with me instead of MJ?
i would not have been so active in non-academic involvement in school activities - and thus might not be able to have such outstanding cca records in jc life
i would not have known people like brother, fabian, iskandar, changzhi, etc random guys and thus might not be able to know 'the one' too (even though i would have still known andy and muilian through cca)
i probably would not have been so close to 2A04 peeps because i would have half the time spent with the tk gang
i would not have known people like poh poh!

what if #3: tk gang or 2A04 did well and all went into the same uni?
i might be closer to them and have more common topics rather than randomly exchange conversation that we may or may not have common understanding of what each other is talking about
i will definitely have more friends in uni instead of just sticking with the soci trio-compatriots most of the time - but im not complaining about it because we're having fun with each others' company

i believe.. that if what if #1 occurs, my life would have a vast difference. and i also believe.. that if what if #1 occurs, my current love life would be very much different. actually my current love life is very much because of what 'the one' did... or more like what 'the one' never did..

anyway.. the main point of this entire section, is to show that i really enjoyed my jc life even though SRJC (in the eyes of many people, including some of its own students) is not a very good school. it may be the lousiest school to many people, but i personally think it really brought me up to a higher level of personal development in terms of cognitive and intellect. it is the best place that i want to and can be (not because im stupid)!

*the above comments are based on some thoughts of coming from SRJC after talking to brandon on monday night in school*
