O..... Kay.....

The 'O' Levels are just around the corner like a Heavy rev-ing up Sasha.

I think it's time to put this blog on hiatus

Or whenever I feel like blogging HAHA

Signing Off...... Blue without a nose

This is why we read Hajime no Ippo. Not going to spoil anything but....... RBJ vs Miyata is freaking sweet! Almost like a DBZ battle now lol. And with the burst of speed going on everywhere, I think that this is the first match where someone gets DQ-ed (other than the Mashiba vs Sawamura one) for hitting the ref lol

Prelim 2 starts tomorrow.

It seemed so much further away a week ago :(

Saturday. Woke up around 8 am. Slept. Woke up around 9 am. Dad fetched me to the MRT station, took MRT to Bugis.

I went to the library at like.... 10... Turns out, the place was already opened at 9 so the studying are was already filled up. Made a few calls, realised that the original plan was to study at Macdonald's lol.

Though I originally thought I was late, I was actually the earliest there. While eating breakfast SS came. Started doing maths, then Wan Ling came. Finished 4 A Maths paper from 10 to 3. 4 schools, 4 paper 1s and 4 paper 2s...... Need to increase the speed in which I do the papers since, not all questions were attempted due to syllabus change. Ate lunch at Mac too. Halfway through, studying kind of derailed HAHA.

Went to Kinokuniya and bought Marvel Zombies. Read finish the thing. Then went back up and bought Marvel Zombies 2 lol. As of now I have 3 out of 4 of the Marvel Zombies series, leaving only the one with the crossover with Evil Dead not bought. I didn't even plan to buy it lol. Original plan was to buy the 300 comic, then Marvel Zombies caught my eye. After several hot seconds of internal strife, picked up Marvel Zombies lol. 300 was kinda costly, nearing 50 dollars while each of the Zombie books cost around 24 only lol

Around 6, went off to Raffles City. Ate at some restaurant in Raffles hotel and spent the night at Fairmont hotel. Was waiting for the fireworks to start and we had an (almost) opposite view of what I think was a fireworks competition. Fireworks went on for roughly 10 - 15 minutes. The sound was AWESOME! It was echoing in the hotel block like a war was going on. Artillery, Machine-Gun Fire and all :D

That was Saturday

Nothing much happened today I guess.....

Woke up rather early, and the Bayrun thingy was huge! and loud....

'cept that it rained

And I fell down when running

And sort of scissors kicked Cheng Mun at the same time :D

Signing Off... PLUS!!

I am not really sure but is it only 3 days till our Prelim 2? Sure doesn't feel like it. I haven't really been doing a lot to prepare for it. Totally haven't touched geography or SS yet. I am so going to get screwed.....

Late for school today lol. It was kind of an expected thing since I was really grinding the line between late and being on time for the past 2 weeks. Came back to class, panicked at the prospect of having to buy another calculator since it was not in class. Ran over to the Chemistry lab to look for it, thankfully it was there. Saved approximately 18 dollars :D

Wanted to play tennis in school during PE and many a people in my class brought their rackets. Turns out, lightning warning prevented it..... The rain came..... After an hour....

Came home when for tuition fro 5 to 10 lol

Random Notes:

Playing Civlizations for the DS is really refreshing. Never really got around play Civ IV since I was busy playing Dawn of War around that time. It really got me interested in such strategic games that promote guile and have consequences impacted by ones actions :D Got to find time to play them. After 'O's

Current list of games to get:

Galactic Civilizations II and all it's expansions
Civilizations IV and all it's expansions
Left4Dead
SPORE!!!!
Street Fighter IV

Signing Off........ I have a list of things to do.

Study plans were kind of derailed largely due to the fact that I left my calculator in school. Tried using a normal calculator, unable to do nuts. Tried using a graphical calculator, didn't know how to operate the damn thing

Just finished watching Saving Private Ryan again, don't know why but I am kind of falling asleep as I am typing this out lol

Played Civilizations for about 3 hours now. Can't do shit for diplomacy for the DS. Takes too long to take over another empire that you just tell yourself "fuck it" and rush their country with veteran knights lol

Worst thing, you choose a democratic government for the economic benefits, but when you want to attack a rival nation, the congress votes against it - . -. That's when you know it's time, for regime change :D Communism and being a Republic. Not much difference to anything LOL

OH COME ON!!!

FINALLY A DAY WITHOUT HALL ASSEMBLY!

Almost late for school, been going on for the past few days now, can't really blame the Olympics though watching reruns has caused me to run in to my sleeping hours. Hm

Gonna play some Team Fortress 2 Now

Signing Off........ It's next week?

Did a lot of the EMaths SetB prelim papers today. If the 'O' Levels are going to be like that, how can people actually fail the tests - . - Of course, I was doing the questions on rough paper but still, minusing of presentation errors here and there, it's actually possible to get an average of 95% and above for every paper.

Now if I can do that, something is seriously wrong with the standards of the EMaths papers...

I have been sleeping kind of later for the past few days (including Thursday) coming to about 1 to 2 am before I hit the hay. Not really for studying, but more of staring at the computer trying the scavenge every bit of useless facts as I can. Just because I can HAHA. Productive would not be the word that I use to describe my studying behaviour. SS a little bit and I was a little shocked that I can actually remember the Legislature, Executive and Judiciary crap lol.

Yup, Singapore didn't get gold, which was kind of really expected. From the get go we were outclassed by China in every single aspect of the game. Considering that we were bound to lose sooner or later, it's little consolation that we lost by straight sets(I have no idea what's the proper Table-Tennis terminology is) . But I guess Silver is good enough. And comparing our population sizes 2 billion to 4 (or 6 million) we have 1 medal to China's (Guesstimation) of 70. Which is kind of good

And that our paddlers are prolly getting paid much, much more than the Chinese Athletes LOL

Had the English Language 'O' Level examinations this afternoon.

Despite having a surname that begins with C I was somehow pushed one class forward, resulting in me and of my other classmates to become the last 5 of the first group. Significance, we assembled at 2 P.M, I started my oral at around 4.10 P.M. That's the significance.

In that time span of a little over 2 hours, I developed a headache that is still going on, again, same as the Chinese Orals, spent with my head down and reading some crap. Crap it was, I read a little and started talking crap with my friends in the most faux accents you can ever find haha.

Oral Conversation topic was 'bout video games. 'nuff said

Random Notes:

GTA IV........... I had to use it as an example

Politics LOL

Signing Off.............. Gimped

I just found out that I have one more thing to be thankful for. With my half-assed Chinese speaking skills, how I managed passing, let alone a distinction in oral was already a blessing in disguise. I did a Chinese composition today and I realised, I have no idea what the fuck I was writing :(

IPPT (No Idea what this is) exercise halfway through Chinese period. Basically slacked for over a period during the exercise. Talking cock with friends throughout. Seriously though, having an exercise in the event of a gas attack would be totally futile. This are the reasons

Poisonous Gas (ie Nerve Gas) basically kills us with even minute amounts

Our classroom is not exactly air tight

If the gas was dropped by plane, we would most likely think it to be a bomb and therefore evacuate to a enclosed underground area, where we are screwed by gas

Launched, by missles, we are fucked either way

Random Notes:

Trying not to gas out by studying too much, speed of reaction must be constant

Y-Y-Y

Signing Off..... I just threw a pair of my socks into the dustbin...

Yeah...... Just woke up from a 3 hour nap. Kind of had to sleep off the disappointment

Got a B3 for Chinese with a Distinction in Oral. The setting in which the results were announced was really very kooky, the sound of raindrops in the background certainly was not a good case of foreshadowing.

Almost everyone, including me, was visibly disappointed with their results. Not really sure but our class had what, 7A1s 3 A2s, 16 or 17 B3s and 3 Cs. I am pretty sure that the disappointment was not because a lot of us had B3s but rather, as some who more or less had a shoe in for an A were freaking shocked of the results.

Can't say that I am particularly happy with a B3, was really hoping for that A1 to be a flagship towards my 'O' Levels. That said, in places other than fairyland, miracles do NOT happen. Guess it's really more of a reflection on what we put into our work haha

Now, after proverbially mourning since 1115. I guess, more than enough time has been spent wallowing in self-pity. Being (mostly) an optimist, I have learned that I MUST show frustration before I can look and reflect. Enough Said. Let's look at the good points (I am basically pulling this crap out of my ass)

1. Having a B3 means less time wondering whether I should retake
2. Retaking means I can be more in touch with the Chinese Language (Told you I was pulling crap)
3. A lesson in life: Results are a reflection of the work put in
4. There's a chance to push up my grades at the end of the year :D
   
5. A distinction in Oral means that the paper that cannot be retaken is well done and passed

Not going to harp on the bad points. The only feasible ones I can think of are

1. It's not an A1 :(
2. It's not an A2 :(
3. I have to look under a pile of scrap paper for my Chinese Notes :(

Bought examination notes for Physics, Chemistry and Bio yesterday. It's pretty scary to see my stack of notes compressed into that small little rectangular book that I swear can fit into the pockets of one of my pants. Saw Chayadi using them a few days ago, finally gotten around to walking over to Popular to get it yesterday. Pretty much all of the stuff is covered in there, a little nudge here and there in some places, more than enough to spark your memory and shove some coal into my proverbial train of thought haha.

National Day (kind of duh)

Watch the Parade. Not really. I kind of watched till there was about an hour left. It's kinda of the same every year. Watch the openign segments, marching over, wait as my attention slowly fades. Changes Channel

Few things I noticed this year

• SM Goh Chok Tong looking through the binoculars without first uncapping it
• Some MP trying to take a picture of Vivian Balakrishnan and Tharman Shaguratnam (I am shocked I can spell those names without spellcheck!) was in the way lol
• I don't know if it's just me but, this is the first NDP that was raining lol
• They modified and changed the beats of the songs. No one could sing along (Or didn't want to)
• More of something I didn't notice, didn't see the fireworks this year :(
• Side note: I saw enought last night HAHA

Just finished watching the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony, the amount of money they spent on fireworks was probably more than the total amount spent on Singapore's past 42 National Day parades. Damn

Have to sleep (somewhat earlier today)

As per the past 4 years, I think I will only actually hear the National Day Song (THE song, not a song. I only heard the theme song on the bus today, the first time ever, didn't really listen to the music because I was rushing to get off the bus lol.

There are so many mistakes in the sentence structures of that last paragraph lol

Speaking of Bus Rides, today I was really suay until cannot suay already la. After GEP, waiting for a bus to come buy for quite long. A 28 came first so I just got onto it. 2 Bus-Stops later, a bus 93 just overtook the bus 28 and stopped infront of us. I half-wanted to get off 28 and onto 93 since the bus journey would be a little shorter. The bus was so close yet so far, it was one step ahead of us all the way :(

At the T-Junction before Bartley Road (I think), the 93 turned left while we journeyed forward. Saw a bus 8 coming from the right. "YAY" I thought but then..... RED LIGHT!!! OMG!!! And then the bus 8 just kept going..... :(

Happier note on the buses would be that before Physics GEP, went to Serangoon to eat Macs, while walking back to the interchange after our lunch. I saw, in the distance, a bus, not really knowing what it is I said "If that's Bus 158, I will laugh la"

Then Jared went "EH! 158 leh!"

The whole lot of us started running and I was caught holding a large coke in my right hand and the McDonald's trophy thingy on my left...... Luckily, we were all able to get on the bus, if not, from what I know. 158 is a bitch to wait for :D

Temp Fortress



School today was rather wasted. No Maths lesson (2 periods) No SS ( period sort of) No Geog (1 period) and if you count English (3 periods since I only did a compre)..... That's like 7 periods that we were able to do our own crap. Did Maths for the bulk of the time while spending the rest of the time talking cock lol

Didn't study much today. Knocked out around 4 due to my extreme-tiredness that was totally extreme with extreme knockout power. That was extreme

Random Notes:

Post number. 400

We were bored.....



Signing Off.... S-S-S-SUPER WEED!!!

What a day.... 4 periods of Maths periods... And I only did 8 questions lol

Didn't really do much today, got kind of tired of doing A Maths for so long so I decided to spice it up a little. For every question on part of a question done, I would do 40 sit-ups just to keep myself awake.... I did 10 questions.... You do the Math

Our class was let off at 1320.... :(
I had to stay back for Geog GEP. Luckily, it was worthwhile today since we were actuall doing something that we could not really do at home like map reading HAHA. Much more helpful than going through some of the other crap during GEP

Random Notes:

I still hate the Bio TYS answers HAHA

Signing Off..... Kshhhhhhhhhh

I dare say I was a lot more productive today :D

Did Biology papers 2005 to 2007. 3 Papers in total excluding some of the essay questions, the questions were....... okaaaay...... Kind of nothing we've never seen before, the 2007 paper was okay, difficulty wise I would have to say the 2005 paper is the hardest seeing as I don't really know what the hell they are asking for HAHA

Point to note: Check out question 34 for years 2005 - 2007. It's..... the exact same question.....

Turning the TV off seems to make me concentrate more :D

Random Notes:

The reverse happened today..... I had an IM and I looked at my phone for a message HAHA


Singing Off...... Orange - red

Sometimes, things are just fucked up



Headaches are becoming more and more frequent. Good (or bad) thing is that while they are coming more quickly, they seem to go away as quickly as well. So that means I can have more time for breaks HAHA

Played Team Fortress 2 while "relaxing".I seem to have gotten really good when I am playing a Pyro it seems, no idea why. Even without the 50 HP bonus of the backburner, I seem to have really improved when I am using the regular ol' flamethrower. Hmm, not trying to brag or anything because, I have always sucked at using the Pyro so the bar is pretty low lol

Random Notes:

Did a little more on Bio today, identified the chapters I am seriously lacking in

• Nervous System
• Genetics (Not really sure because the questions they gave were do-able)
• Reproduction in Plants
• Reproduction in Mammals

I totally suck in all of them. I came to a sudden revelation kind of late in the game, I can actually learn more if I actually do the questions(shocker). Kind of a no-brainer but, something must have seriously jolted my brain because I seem to be able to remember the parts of the eye and it's functions although I have always struggled with it in the past :D

Signing Off........ Still hating bio

Went to the SAJC open house today with Daniel and Jia Hao. Made the decision yesterday after WL sms-ed us(we had no prior knowledge of the event). Original decision was to meet at my house before taking a direct bus to SAJC which would have been like only 6 or 7 bus stops away. Jia Hao then went to Kallang MRT to meet with Daniel who's mother was going to fetch them there......... They left at 1100.... I left my place at around 1145...... I reached the place 15 minutes before them - . -

GPS was invented for a reason, not that we use it but, some people really, really need it :D

Stayed from 12 to around 4. Kinda fun actually, should have called more people to go HAHA

I think I am going a little crazy and (more) blur. I received an SMS and what I did was press alt-tab on my computer as if someone has IM-ed me....... And this is not the first time - . -

School and classes seemed to pass by very, very quickly today. Played badminton during PE, which I still royally suck at.

ZZZZNH

Random Notes:

I was eating dinner and I heard on the radio that they are planning to build an MRT station at freaking Sixth Avenue..... The radio deejays were like questioning the decision. I totally agree with them. Seriously, why the hell? Some of the houses there ARE freaking bigger than an MRT station and I should assume that they all have some form of private transport be it a chauffeur or cabbing to avoid taking public transport with poor folks like us :D
