EOY.....

Not supposed to be blogging now but, what the heck...

Guess I shan't post about the stuff i didn't post last wk, shall do that after EOYs...

Anyway, yesterday was the English Paper one....shall say it's still okay...
I actually copied most of my plot from a book by Roald Dahl..."The umbrella man and other stories"...just edited some stuff to suit my book, wrote about the "describe a memorable overseas trip"...

Nowadays, I find that english compo isn't restricting you to much stuff anymore, the titles are so general you can write LOADS of stuff under it...
E.g. "sorrow" "write a story beginning with 'I'm not telling you,' he said".....lol...

In any case, it's still good to have some plotlines inside your story bank so that don't have to waste too much time trying to crap some story out during exams...

Science paper didn't take so went to revise for geog instead....
I think I went crazy last night, reading the whole textbk and memorising the whole file (just exaggerating but I think you get it)...
In the end, today's geog paper wasn't that hard after all.......
I think I wrote toooo long essays though...2 mark qn write 12 LINES!!!
Couldn't believe it myself and the time limit, now I realise, is quite short....
Saw friends who finished in 30 min, checked then slept for 1hr...WTH??!!
I finished in 1hr 30 min, left 15 min check.....
Can't believe I actually got one stupid qn wrong...
They asked "which latitude is this?", it was the equator, I put tropic of capricorn, can't talk about it....

chinese paper 1 still ok......

(another unbelievably long post and in the middle of EOY...)

Title

I seriously can't think of any better titles...

Anyway, won't be posting till next tue, when exam over....seriously need to start revising...

Guilty...

Feel guilty for not mugging enough these few days...

Been slacking a bit too much...

Guess everyone is.....

Feel so lucky I didn't choose to take 3rd lang...else I'd be dead by now.....

At least the exempted subjects will gimme time to revise for the next test..

no saying that we shouldn't start now....

My nose is recovering!!!

Finally, and at just the right time....

I should seriously start mugging now...bb!!



5 DAYS AWAY TO EOY!!!

6 days to EOY

Ming kit's right, i should stop putting the word "" on my blog or i would feel more ""...
It's actually more about personal view point actually...like exams...

If you go in thinking that you will fail the exams...you probably will...
If you go in thinking that you have revised well...you probably will do well...
If you go in thinking that you will ace the exams and the exams will be a breeze...you probably will fail....over-confidence...

Same goes with ""...
If you think you are ""... you probably will feel ""
If you think you are not "" and are coping well...you probably will
If you relax too much...

and I STILL have to go for band THIS WEEK IN THE MORNING....AHHH!!!
I thought that I could have an extra 1 week break......main word - "could"

In today's assembly, Dr Hon suggested the reduction of ACE from 15% to 10% in sec 2 and someone else suggested that we have 15 ACE pts but only 10%...Isn't this kinda unfair??
Dr Hon gave the disagree-ers a chance the talk but he seems to be quite on his own side...
ACE is supposed to be for independent learning so if ACE is reduced...won't that decrease the amount of independent learning done by the students??

IMO training 5

sry for the sucky titles, i couldn't think of anythin' better...

IMO training was well.....as usual...
Except this time the homework is hhaarrdd and looong......19 hard qns....

I got distinction for keyboard practical grade 5...yay!!
Exact score shld be coming out nxt wk...

I finally finished ALL my ACE!!!
Except for IS with 23 but it doesn't matter since I will get A1 anyway and I'm quite happy wif tt...

I finally found a CIP event to go to!!
Organised by some community club and it's one full day so shld be abt 6 hrs...
Will be visiting some old folks home or something like that...
Anybody wanna join me??? I'll feel lonely if I go alone.....
(Take this as a reply to wei heng's tag)

Despite all the good stuff...still can't get my mind off EOY....ONE WEEK AWAY!!!

stressed........

PCME test...

Finally, all "tests" over and exams are coming...

PCME test sucked...quite hard especially the school history, it's 90 yrs (i think RI older, not sure...)

At least no band until exams over, no need to play for flag raising too....YAY!!

Nothing much to talk about these few days since teachers will be doing full-speed revision...

LESS THAN 10 DAYS LEFT TO EOY!!! AHHH!!!!!

stressed.......
stressed.......
stressed.......

Music test....and PCME test

Today's music test was lame....we just sang and passed....except for one....
Today's music lesson was chaos...mr tan's seal was thrown around the class, people were hogging the pianos and we got mr tan to search for it's too late to apologise on youtube and he did, then we sang it once through and mr tan says it's nice......
Listened to the lion sleeps tonight too on youtube, mr tan can be funny at times......
a wimbawet...a wimbawet...a wimbawet...a wimbawet...
a wimbawet...a wimbawet...a wimbawet...a wimbawet...
HAHA!!!

Today's geog teacher came on first period realising that it wasn't her period.....
Then our class, monkeys as usual, purposely say "class stand", "class greet", "good bye and thank you mdm lim" when we didn't even greet her at first...HAHA!!

Our english teacher has also developed a new way of teaching...
When we ask stupid questions in class...he will shout "beat him up!" and then the "hit squad" of the class will come to action...I shall keep his anonymity in case I seem to be flaming him....
Those who already know who I'm talking about just keep it...ok?

Now need to revise for PCME, can't even believe I'm actually goin' to revise for it.....

stressed......
stressed......
stressed......

Bad nose...

My nose is getting worse by the day....
Even all the teacher's are complaining and now i'm sitting in front of the class.....
Tomorrow got music test and my voice is going to sound very nasal....the kind of sound you get when talking while pressing your nose...I can do that but without pressing.....wonder how i'm going to sing....
Exams coming too so if i don't cure this soon i'll have sneeze every 5 min during the EOY...

At least MOST of my ACE is settled...
The only ACE left are lit 14 and IS 23 and the due date is TMR!!
Lit i've already done the project, just waiting for group mate to hand up and IS...I don't really care much... I've calculated, if my ACE stays like this and i get 0 for my flash project (which i probably will not get) I'll still get A1 for IS and i'm happy with that...

I'm getting seriously stressed from EOY and the signs are coming up...
I sometimes feel that I just want to grab all my files, empty the worksheets onto the floor and kick them all around.... All my language homework is killing me....literally....
i've had to chiong most of my language homework during reading period...recess...lunch...lesson time....etc...with the help of others....

Now I feel so lucky i've been exempted from math....
math teacher gave sample paper today to do.....full paper 2 hrs...I finished it with all full working within 30 min.....if i had to take the exam i would have had to sleep for at least half the exam time.......

Literature is killing me now even more......
Can't seem to get anything in my head....Many, Many quotations to memorise (i really mean MANY), themes to memories, unseen poetry which i dread..........
I can't stand this anymore......

stressed.....
stressed.....
stressed.....

Still stressed...

Getting busier and busier.....

Not taking 2 subjects doesn't seem to be making any difference to my lifestyle......
I'm still as busy as ever with my languages and humanities....
I don't really revise much or even at all for math and science...

I'm STILL lacking in ACE...
I have 14/15 eng ACE, 14/15 chi ACE, 14/15 lit ACE and 21-22/25 IS ACE, well that's what the IVLE says+projects day, ONE MORE for THREE subjects.......
I ain't that strong in flash either so it'll be hard for me to get that ACE...
And I STILL need CIP hrs......
haiz.......

Deciding whether to join odyssey of the mind or not...looking at how busy I am....but on the other hand i could use the ACE....
Just finished science test yesterday and chi and chi drama test today.....Still got music test this thu and civics and moral education test this fri.....
haiz....

Anyway, gratz to those who got exempted...one subject is also an achievement....
Highest I heard of was 4 subjects exempted, i know like 3 people who got 4 subjects, including wei jian and mingkit, GRATZ!!!

stressed....

IMO training 4

Shall keep my post short today cos doing literature quote sheet and mugging for sci test tmr......

Me and wei heng are getting very enthusiastic about the whole IMO training thing, i think we are one of the only ones who actually respond to the questions...at the wrong time sometimes...

The take home test clashes with the EOY week, argh............I want to get chosen for IMO.....:'(

On the other hand, i got 92% for my IS html portfolio!!! Highest in class too!!! (with 2 others but who cares...)

Need to get back to work now...BYE!

stressed...

More tests...

More and more wierd tests are coming up in my curriculum....

There's going to be a "Civics and moral education" test of 50 MCQ which WILL be reflected in the REPORT CARD........

There's a music test on singing and some basic musical knowledge....

There's chinese drama test on creating an act and acting....reflected in the report card i think...

And probably some other tests which i don't know about yet.....

Well, at least i am exempted from math and science EOY, then can focus on other subjects......

Many things done...many more to come...

Finally finished literature chapter summary and handed up, that's my last hope of lit ace...lit teacher haven't upload much ACE yet so i dunno can max or not...

My flash project also FINALLY done....after many hours of mugging and yet i think it is still quite lame....

Science test's been postponed to next monday instead of tomorrow!!!Don't have to mug any more!! Somehow, i seem more confident in the non-physics area although i'm the sort of more math guy.....

Chinese test next tuesday...nothing much to do there....

Still need IS ACE, only got 20/25.......not very strong in flash either...need some professional help....

Still looking for CIP event to take part in to clock up 10 hrs of CIP....

I assure you there are much more than this....too sian now to put up...

Anyway, for Isparkians who happen to be reading this blog, VOTE FOR GARY IN iEXCO RALLY ELECTIONS TOMORROW!!!! VOTE FOR HIM, I assure you no regrets...

Calligraphy

Gonna keep my posts short or post less often now....EOY coming....

Anyway, these few weeks art lesson doing CALLIGRAPHY!!
The bad thing is that the 3rd assignment is to write our name out in calligraphy...
Why do i say it's bad? Cos my name is one of the hardest to write in class...
I know it's not the hardest but it's hard enough...36 strokes....
Anybody have any other wierd names which are complicated feel free to post on cbox....

Ahh...CIP hrs still only 4 and the 5hr CIP event organise on Sat...WHICH I CAN'T GO.....
Now it's "CIP for the DESPERATE!!!" Any suggestions anyone??
Still lacking on IS and Lit ACE............
Still stressed...
And stressed...
And stressed...

To those who did well....gratz!!!

20 more days to EOY....history need to study like NINE CHAPTERS, geography need to study WHOLE TXT BK AND MORE.....LIT NEED TO STUDY EVEN MORE.....
Some of you may find it like "it's too little, i wan more...." but MY BRAIN IS BURSTING...
stressed....stressed....stressed...

Storm...

FYI, a storm is brewing outside my window and the wind is sooo strong possible a tornado......
Wonder wad that is supposed to mean....
Now suddenly stopped with the windows all wet.....
Calm after the storm???
Somehow reminds me of EOY......
Everything seems to remind me of EOY......

School reopens!!

Yesterday chionging holiday homework so couldn't post......
Last day of school hols over.......*sob*...

Anyway, today went to school finding out that almost everyone, or maybe even everyone, didn't finish their holiday homework....(no suprise though...)

Today during assembly Mr Sung talk about demerit points and their consequences...
He makes them seem so important with all those HARSH punishments like being suspended from school.....

Then after assembly something wierd happened in class....
Someone pulled the door knob, it came loose, dropped out and we were stuck outside.....
The whole class was going chaotic outside facing a latched back door and a handle-less front door....
Then the teacher came......call the technician (or watever u call it) to come and fix but can't......
Then waited for him to get key to enter class from door on opposite side (our classrooms actually have 4 entrances.....)...
Had a mini-lesson outside, all standing listening to lit teacher......
Then back to normal but teacher didn't manage to go through much though.....

After that science lesson...found out that science sample paper no need hand up......
Spent sooo much time doing last night then no need hand up....sianz........

Getting nervous for EOY liao.....IS and lit ACE still not max.....CIP hrs still only 4......so much stuff so little time........

IMO training 3

Today was IMO training 3...

Getting quite interesting though some stuff are HARD....but it's still FUN!

Too bad i had to miss today's newspaper collection CIP event...
I REALLY NEED CIP HOURS.....I ONLY HAVE 4.....
Some friends said that it was quite boring though cos little people wanted to open their doors......

Me and Wei heng did a bit of exploring today...
Today no one was available to fetch us to we had to take public transport on our own....
Spent quite some time deciding where to have lunch...ate at Jurong East Int in the end.....

Meanwhile, today is 23 more days to EOY!!!

Music...

Ahhhh...haven't been blogging for long time cos CHIONGING HOMEWORK and STILL CHIONGING!!!!!

Anyway, about the music part...

I finally realise that I actually have a passion for music....especially after my ABRSM examiner praised my talent for music......

Strangely, i STILL do not like band.....although i do like playing and listening to music and i'm doing quite well for theory......

My band senior also told me to quit early if i wanted to cos if i dragged it later and later, i may not be able to quit it any more due to my responsibilities....

Well, I'm still considering actually altough i'm quite sure my final choice would be ec3......
