Cranking up the school gear

My half-baked attempt at poetizing the start of school.

Mindless scampering and mental maps

Ants we become, bees we are

Mundane worries

To print or not to print

To buy or not to buy

To go or to pon

Where to eat what to wear and

mostly to work hard or slack through it all.

Classes I'm taking this semester:

1) Media Law, Ethics & Policy

2) Singapore's Foreign Policy

3) Creative Writing: Poetry

4) Going Overseas for Advanced Reporting (GO-FAR) aka my Bangladesh trips aka my unofficial photojourn FYP...

Hence the poetic attempt. Contrary to popular belief, poets don't just sit and sprout out elegant poetry in one sitting. My professor made it clear it's alot of drafts and endless revision. Still, it's a fun change from all the heavy law jargons and airy fairy political theories.

Not a bad bunch of classes this semester I believe. See what I can make out of them by the end of the semester.

Oh and how can we forget the all-important FYP...

Two days in school and I still feel like I am in neutral gear. Not even in gear one yet. I hope my inner-school accelerator works better than my mum's car's.
