School

Performing

Performing my assessment piece in Music Was always extremely nerve-wracking. I feel my bones shaking And my mind running. I love the thrill of performing But I was frightened that my song Would not live up to Those of my peers. It was a tough journey And now my hard work Lies within their earsContinue reading “Performing”

Budgeting

Learning how to budget Was interesting during class. To think we would take things seriously Was almost a joke. Somehow we understood the work But it was filled with more giggles Than calculative numbers. However, I wouldn’t have it any way else.

Winter Breeze

The frosty morning And chilly days in winter Always wake me with a smile. I love walking to school In the winter breeze And feeling my mind relax. It is so calming before a day Filled with lectures and research Just like the sight of snow.

Math Homework

Sitting at my desk and Focusing on my math homework Brought reminders of the upcoming test. This topic was exhausting Despite being not the hardest one of the year. Remembering all the methods were getting tough. I never minded doing Algebra But now that I moved to Extension, It was causing me more pain thanContinue reading “Math Homework”

Languages

Growing up, I always loved learning languages. I enjoy writing, speaking, and listening In other languages other than English And exploring other cultures in our vast world. I have always been fascinated By how we connect with language But also, how it keeps us apart. It’s a bittersweet thing honestly. I remember wanting to learnContinue reading “Languages”

Teardrops

Crying as I try to work out A heartbreaking assignment For my English Extension class. Writing a poem based on my heartbreak. Jotting my emotions and thoughts, They swirled around in my mind, Prancing and traumatising me As I breathed them out. This was too painful. I couldn’t do this. Tears flooded my eyes AndContinue reading “Teardrops”

Learning

My books pile up on my desk. I gaze at them and suppress my pain. All night and day, I work in these books. My writing grows from neat to messy. My work always organised and never out of order. All those late nights and early mornings With little to medium productivity. One day, IContinue reading “Learning”

Improvements

The tests were handed out And everyone looked around the room Full of disappointment. The teacher stands at the front of the class With no words to say Or even what the highest mark was. Dissatisfaction flooded the room And everyone knew they had to do better, Study more, and effectively learn the material. WhenContinue reading “Improvements”

Attention

Be attentive. Be attentive. Be attentive. Those words repeat themselves In my head Reminding me of the tedious class. I can’t believe that this is compulsory Because I lose all my focus and energy. But I know that I must do one thing. Be attentive. Be attentive. Be attentive.

Are You Ready?

Sometimes tests can throw us All over the place. We can become irrational, Unbearable, and even uncontrollable. It’s hard to revise the whole concept Especially when told with a fortnight notice. It gives us stress and pain As we prepare for the torture that awaits. But the day still comes. You can skip as manyContinue reading “Are You Ready?”

My Tedious Life

I lay on the bed Staring up at the dome window Into space. The next day, I walk into the library And borrow my books for class. Apathy feels my heart As I have nothing to do And this is my tedious life, day in and day out.

Isolation

The wheel spins Round and round Like the distort pain In my stomach. I ride the bus every day Only to arrive at the most unloved place. School. I can’t speak my native tongue. I can’t speak the language we learn. I can’t speak to anyone. It’s a trap to me. A death trap waitingContinue reading “Isolation”

My First Day of College

The huge building of my college Sends a chill down my spine. This monumental building would be my home For the next couple of years. I enter the room To witness anxious students Waiting for the class To commence. I remind myself why I’m here once again. Design. Create. Learn to be free.

Education

Education wasn’t always free. It only changed during the Industrial Revolution When many changes were occurring at the speed of light And the Elementary Act of 1870 Changed the world we now know. Even if you don’t like school, Value the experience Because it’ll get you far in life.

Teachers

Learning takes its tollBut teachers make it awesomeUnless you hate it!

School is fun. It teaches us many things, Even if we won’t need most of it. It spreads our wings And helps us soar Into the big world. It showers us with tools That is hurled To get us through rough times. School is fun. It’s enjoyable And remember to get your work done.
