Classes are over.

Today, we took the last final and we had our closing ceremony. Most of us then went out to KTV before heading out. It was really bittersweet. We were pretty glad that we made it to the end and that all our hard work has paid off. But at the same time, we're pretty sad because we all have to leave. It was the last time we were all together. Even if...

Almost half-way update

Hey everyone, Sorry, I haven't updated as often as I wanted. I've been sick the past week because there's something going around.
