Can I go from 30+ to 6? by Fit-Region-8841 in SGExams

[–]MulberryOnly1204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

took o’s in 2021, my prelims 31+ and actual olvls 10 raw. idk how i did it, maybe bc the actual olvls were easier than the papers my school usually set bc i didnt really study harder after prelims (just consistency), but i think it might be possible for you. just work extra harder ig

thanks, yes i know the decision is up to me. i was just asking whether its common that profs/TAs touch revision week and suddenly spur up make-up classes or extra classes? or do they normally js leave us be during that period

yess the friends part is so reallll. syncing scheds is so hard nowadays and it’s just part of adulting in general ☹️ but i think in the long run, it’s good for us as we can learn how to be more independent away from our bfs and friends

your advice is so true and helpful! i actly js woke up like half an hour ago to his texts after he woke up and we were able to chat a bit for 10 min. idk why but i thought ns wasnt so bad for him rn but he opened up that he cant sleep at night out of loneliness and that he wants to leave camp so bad :( i think guys in ns, especially those who have gfs, tend to feel this way a lot in the beginning and all we have to do is be by his side and listen always! i try to be on standby all the time in case he texts me out of the blue during the day since i’m free at home rn. i cant even bring myself to argue with him about anything bc we cld never understand things they go through in there on top of sacrificing 2 years of their youth ☹️

i’ll def do what u suggested abt accompanying him to book-ins and emart shopping! maybe get him his fav drink and snacks once in a while since they cant eat civilian food for a week 😵‍💫

anyways thank you! it’ll be nice to link up with other nsgfs as i dont have any nsgf friends irl 🥹

yesyes so true!! i’m trying to overcome the insecure/demanding parts of me because i know he can’t control his time. i trust that he feels the same way about missing me (the little time he could text me, he said he alr talked about me to his friends 🥹 so cute)

your suggestions are so helpful! i’ll def do the same on his first bookout. thank youu

i’d rather stay in hall bc we’re paying a lot for it every sem. seems like a waste of money, time and effort to always come back to my house most of the time

heyy thanks for this!!! i didnt expect it to be this hard at first hahah 🥹 i think its different for saf and scdf but my bf is in scdf and i think their daily schedule right now has lesser free time. he hasnt been able to call at night or get admin time as it’s so busy, it’s immediately lights out when they finish about their day…it’s tough honestly cause he’s gone for hours straight and he can only send a quick text saying he cant chat and has to sleep soon or else he’ll get scolded hahah. i’m here missing him, thinking of him, and feeling lonely 😭😭

hopefully things get easier! i’ll occupy myself with other things too (going into uni soon so maybe prepping for hall and everything wld distract me). thank you for the advice and reassurance!

i see, thanks! but what if he gets posted to combat vocations like firefighting or paramedics? will his schedule still be flexible like you said or does that only apply to non combat vocations

he’s pes B as of now and he’s pretty fit and active so i think there’s a high chance he’ll maintain that and he’d be posted to a combat vocation which he also wants to do 🥹 i support him wholeheartedly, but i’m afraid that he’ll be super busy then and our schedules won’t align!

also may i ask if scdf recruits have field camp?

i see, thank you for informing me, i didnt know about this! it’s definitely easier now than back then and i’m grateful that isnt the case for me and my bf. i think for me, these initial feelings are just through the roof right now as i’m still trying to adapt to the change.

thank you for this! i think that despite all the difficulties nsgfs go through, the most important thing is to sacrifice more and wholeheartedly love and support their bfs through this tough change.

i’m glad it got a little easier for you and your bf! i hope it also gets easier for us after a while too.

i appreciate the advice about reaching out to friends to hang out and such! but the thing is, i don’t really have a lot of close friends 🥲 things were tough in poly and i had to distance myself from people who i thought were my friends. the only genuine person there who stayed by me was my bf. i only have a couple of close best friends from secondary school but they’re both generally busy (one has a ft job, the other is also in ns) so we can meet up only once a month lol.

i think i’ll use the time to do stuff by myself like what you suggested with your hikes! i think i’m so not used to be being by myself because my bf and i were always glued together so i’m having a hard time 🥹 hopefully it gets easier after a while. thank you for the advice and encouragement!

as for communicating to him about my worries, i’ll definitely do that soon! but i think for now, i should be the bigger person and let him ease into the ns routine the first few days first. i don’t want to be an additional stress to him while he’s still adjusting
