Tomorrow will officially mark the end of my sixth form. Two years that have changed and molded my personality, into hopefully, being a better person. First reaction is how fast it went by. I still remember the first day as it was yesterday... meeting new people, checking out timetables and the lot. Honestly I will miss these days. Yes sometimes it was really crappy, sad and depressing, most notably first year. After the first initial joy of a new school and new people, an anti-climax followed. Second year was pretty cool though, people who were going to JC biex ipappuha (to get stipend and do nothing else apart from being a nuisance to those who want to actually learn) were not promoted and only people who are actually interested in getting the Matriculation certificate remained.
Lecturers actually improved from first year too. Some of my first year teachers remained, notably my English teacher who I am very grateful towards. My Pure Math teacher this year was unbelievable. I never had such a great teacher. He knows the subject inside out (and actually beyond our level), very confident around students, dark humoured and an excellent problem solver. I will certainly miss him. Respect also to the computer department. There are some great people over there, who actually know a thing or two about the subject. They certainly opened up even more doors for me to pursue, modules which I didn't know much about and had a different opinion about before engaging in the study of the topics. Compiler theory, Assembly language, Data Structures & Databases.
I will also certainly miss my new friends. Some of which, I will hopefully see over at university. Honestly, I have met some great people. What I love about this, is that, through our friendship, we shared our dreams, our hopes, even though everyone has a different view of life.
While reflecting back about these two years, what have changed in me, what could have been done better, the bonds that were created... I would like to show my appreciation to anyone who helped me become a better man. A better person. Anyone who encourage me pursue my dreams and hopes. Anyone who made these two years a pleasant experience and a great memory I will look back at with a lot of nostalgia.
