Do you know that tomorrow will be your first day of the rest of your life; your university life begins. Really, it kind of marks the start of you taking charge of your education and the path you want to take in life.
I know as I am writing this, it is actually time for you to hit the sack because you are still nursing a sore throat and lethargy from all that partying a few days ago. So please, take care of your health.
I cannot believe it is the day tomorrow. When University life begins.
How long ago was it that you were at your first day at MDC? Looking lost and feeling overwhelmed by all those talents. Feeling that you finally belong somewhere in National Service.
How long ago was it when you first shaved your head at BMT, marched, climbed and did all those memorable but dreadful things.
How long ago were you still in Junior College, pinning at the day you will begin University life. Mugging for your A Levels. Admiring the Undergraduate lifestyle and "coolness".
How long ago was it when you have constantly dreamed to be a Lawyer and the excitement of law school.
Oh Jeremy, how life have spun you around. Secured and excited with a place in Business School now. Anticipating yet, still very afraid of the new environment and study load.
Who knows what's going to happen in these 4 years ahead for you. Opportunities of friendship, of academic growth, intellectual maturity, cultural exchanges, vibrant travels...
Who knew you would one day be in SMU LKCSB and be very content and happy for yourself. Who knew that you would become the person you are today, "burdened" with the task to succeed.
Who knows what I will write to you, 4 years down the road, when you have landed your first job.
All I can tell you is that it is going to be an arduous journey. Lots of ups and downs and middles. Lots of news, olds.
C'mon Jeremy. Let's start our journey together in 8 hours time. Have fun and remember to stay true to yourself.
C'est la chose la plus importante!
Love,
Jeremy Ho Jia Jun, B.BM
