hello ! It's been a long time since i posted . Well , this will be my last post . I'm not posting about today , but instead , i'm posting about yesterday !

Our school has adopted a new system whereby everyday , students from the Uniform Groups shout out the commands for the assembly (i.e. for singing the national anthem ) . This particular week has been GB's turn .
For many of us , commanding before the school was a first experience . So it was for me too , when it was my turn this morning . Here's how it went : I did my bets ti sound " professional " , though I couldn't stop my arms from trembling violently . Today , the national anthem seemed longer than usual , and the pledge seemed even longer ! However , I was thankful for the opportunity .
After assembly , I received several comments . Most were words of encouragement and constructive feedback from my ever supportive fellow GB mates . Some though , were negative , coming from some of my classmates . I tried not to take anything to heart and after some thinking , let the matter pass . Why ? Because others had the right to speak , and i have the duty of keeping my temper under control .
Through this i have learnt that we must accept negative things that come in our way . Fighting back only makes things worse . We just have to learn to let things go .
