Ytd was I&E Day.
I didn't participate directly in the activities though.. cos I was doing event coverage for the day.
But then again, I had flexibility in moving around all the different activities.
I must say.. some were really interesting.
Nothing much to say for the day, except this photo from the chem labs.

The topic was on cloning, and they were discussing a cloned ship called Dolly.
And here is it:

Right now, i feel like a ten pound iron ball has just dropped onto my head, a train just rammed into my sides, a knife stuck into my chest and my ribs all broken into two million pieces.

I really overexerted myself this time round. Trying to sprint like a madman was a lousy idea indeed. I nearly pushed myself to a blackout.. But good thing i didn't. Right now i have been sitting outside the audit for about 20min trying hard to recover. But my head still feels like a train just ran over it. Argh.

Napfa is only a mere two weeks away. Wish everyone good luck for it. Lol. Wonder if anyone feels as bad as me now. For a moment just now, i thought my body was gonna collapse utterly from exhaustion. Every part of me was aching and screaming then.

Napfa. Napfa. Napfa. Napfa. Let's get this over with.


-----------------------------------------------------

The teacher wanted to tell the class some gossip.
It was about this boy from Cat High.
She said he was weird.
And she said all the Cat High pple were weird for one reason or another.

I raised an eyebrow.
"Does she realise her class consists of 7 Cat High pple?"

I told her.

"What?? I have been teaching a bunch of weirdos for 1 year? No wonder your class is like this!"

"......"

Lol today's PE was one of e most intensive one in quite some time.
Its been boring hving alex lee's default routine.
Pull-ups, pushups, run.

Today we had something new cos alex lee wasnt ard.
it was 10 pullups, followed by 10 cycles of stair climbing.
from 1st floor to 3rd floor and back to 1st floor was one cycle.
10 times. Lols.

After that we went back to do 8 pullups, followed by 8 more cycles of stair climbing.
Den 8 pullups again, and 2 rounds around the field.

Shiok right?


Oh yea. I passed Physics. 53%. I am honestly surprised
Lol the main reason was cos error carried foward earnt me 6 marks which is about 20% of my 53%.
The next time I do multiple choice, I am gonna use a dice.
Wad the heck la.
I seriously do and i only got 1 mark.
I bet using a dice will score me more.
Lol.
And I effectively scored only 3 marks for questions on theory.
The other 13 marks came from calculations.
Haha. Its the only reason why I can border-pass physics.
Cos I will just get marks from all the calculations cos they are just simply Maths.
Then I will flunk my theory badly cos I dno wad Physics is all exactly about.

"Based on my theory, I figured that satellites were orbiting 1km above the Earth's surface!"

Why e heck am i so tired la.
I cant believe i did geo notes till 2am last night.
And I didnt even finish it.
Hais. I am just summarising pages of notes.
I got no darn idea how to take my own notes..
In the end I will still think the notes by the geo department are the best.
So why am I spending so much time on these notes..

There's still lots of stuffs undone.
DEADlines are fast approaching XD.
I am gonna drop dead soon.
Lol.

Its Thursday!

Ah!

Anything can really happen in dreamland.
I dreamt that I won honours in a national Econs essay competition.
I haven't even scored a D for Econs before. Lol.
Never mind the fact that the Econs essay in my dream was written in Chinese.
And it was about Economics in WuXia stories.

No link. Doesn't make much sense either. Lol.
But I remember that in my dream, a teacher called me down to see him cos he wanted to see this champion.
But he was disappointed to see that I could not even grasp basic Econs knowledge despite having written such a wonderful essay.

I remember him criticising me for not working hard for Econs.
"How could you give up on your Econs? Look at this essay you have written! It was such a great piece of work!"

I vaguely remembered in my dream that I had wrote that essay while looking at Wikipedia. Not to mention that it was written in Chinese. Dots.
I remembered swearing in my dream that I will work hard for Econs again to match up to my standard. Haha.
So much for dreams.

I switched on my com.
So tempted to do nothing but slack around and chat online the whole day.
I saw my last entry.
A promise.
My promise.
To myself.
Come to think of it. I haven't done vectors.
Yea.
And so I changed my Msn status to 'Busy'.
Better start work now.
Small text
This is small test. Very small text. Small enough to not read. But you read anyway.

The last day of the 'first three months' holiday period is over.
The 'hols' are ending.
And I am hit by hard cruel facts.
I am failing my tests. I ain't catching up with my studies prim and proper.
Einstein once said. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% prespiration.

He's right. For once, I realise he's right.
I am retaking my Chinese. I can see why Gerald did it. He perspired. I neglected.
Congrats anw Gerald. Watch me get that A in May.

So its a mixed emotion of sadness and fierceness in me now.
I don't wanna fall back no more.
There's so much to this year that I wanna work for.

In Civics, we were told to set our vision and mission.
I thought. All I wanted this year is to score my As for A levels.
But Chinese probably changed the way I thought.
How can I still get my As if I lost 1 subject from the start?
Even if I have to take that subject 4 times in a row to get my A.
I realised. I will do it.
For the sake of who? My parents? Myself?
I don't know. I need motivation to push myself.
I am lacking that motivation. Willpower? That's all I can live on.
I have been living on self-inspiration and pure willpower to pull myself sluggishly through all this years.
I can't go on like this.
This is my last year.
If I don't work hard enough, it might really be my last year of education.

I got my hols planned and decided.
Its time to catch up.

On the other hand.. I suddenly have this passion to try for a win in a photography competition this year. I am gonna try hard. I am really going to try very hard.
If I don't help myself, who will?

I will fight. Mark my word. I will fight.

I am gonna vent abt this very lousy day.
Dun read if you don't like lousy days.

I wasn't even in a good mood since last night.
Totally bugged by the fact that I was getting my CL 'A's results back the next day.
I felt that I did badly the instant I stepped out of the exam hall in Nov last year.
I knew it. I did terribly. I matched definitions on the dictionary and everything seemed wrong.
It made me so nervous abt my CL results..

Den my teacher threw me into Maths remedial class ytd.
Which totally bugs me.
I didn't even fail Maths last year nor the Maths common test this year.
What the heck la.
Its wasting time staying in sch for that extra time if all we gonna do is sit there and do a piece of assignment that's gonna be given to us.
At least if I was given the flexibility to choose whether to come or nt, I might come.
But forcing me into the thing bugs me.
I don't like doing things I don't want to do.
I am gonna revolt.

Den there was the GP test.
It didn't really bug me much.
Just that tests bore me.
I rather be sleeping(which I did).
And I haven't passed a test for quite some time.
I rmb it was some passage on Singlish.
Singlish rox la. How else can we communicate?
Is it really necessary for us to speak in standard English?
Does the true essence of English lie in perfection?
Can talk can alr la. Think so much for wad?
But perhaps.. one day.. code-switching might really prove to be impt.

Honestly, when I took my CL results back.. I was more glad than disappointed.
Perhaps that's the way with low expectations.
I was only hoping for a pass.
Whatever it is. I am not gonna say what I got for CL.
You can ask me, I will say, but not here.
I didn't score very badly ok.
I have my own reasons for not saying here.

The worst part of the day came when I reached home.
Tried to turn on the com.
The damned siren went off. Hell. The CPU fan was screwing up on me again.
I tried to start it up. Futile attempts for half an hr.
I went out to buy a new fan.
What a waste of money. Maintainence costs of this computer has far exceeded its original cost.
Anyway. The new fan worked well.
I put the com's casing back tgt and switched on the computer.
Everything ran well until I noticed there was no audio.
Checked the wires. One dropped out. Ok so I just fixed it back in.
I dunno what the heck happened but when I connected the wire there was loud static and all my speakers snapped.
No sound. Just a very irritating high-pitch tone.
What the hell. Its not as if I was lacking problems.
Den just shortly after that I got the blue stop screen.
And the whole com crashed.
ZZZ. I really very fed up at this com.
Always got a tonne of problems and errors.
SIAN.
