oh man I so should be mugging for GP right now.

but then again who really cares?
I need to get my blog up to date first. hmm.

ok chemO selection was a total disaster. like organic was total wtf. but physical was rather doable except for me forgetting Kstab and dG = -RTlnK. oops. and inorg was yay! except that I kinda messed up the crystal/ligand field splitting question. heh.

but whatever what's done is done so yeah.
and according to mr lu I should start mugging. and drop some of my commitments. but like mugging is totally lifeless. and really these outside commitments [RC, humans] are what makes JC life a lot more bearable/fun. and that's why I keep camping in the canteen during my free blocks and talking to random people instead of going to the library to do work which is totally overdue. and this is one of the reasons why I'm still not very close to 6I. way too mugger. bleh.

I miss 4H.

ok but actually 6I is rather decent [and of course I'd take 6I over 6L anytime. but I'm not too sure if I'd go 3E or 6I. cos 3E is a lot more fun with people like welras russell leonggen and a girl named brenda who's really a guy. so it's like why I sit with them during chemRA lectures.]

ok but before I get carried away let's go back to 6I.
CT reps are yay. and like the most involved monitors I've ever had in 4 years. lol.
let's see ziyang is very very different from what I thought of him in RI. like I used to think he was damn mugger/boring and all that [and I really still don't have that a good impression of the RIPB/council now]. but yeah he's actually a rather crazy guy and the CT rep who's been doing most of the work.

then the other CT rep aka the KI boy is immature. and retarded hence fun to laugh at. and laugh with [at ziyang's fails]. and he's also very noob at reversi.

hmm then who else. 4H people in 6I are nice as expected [matt, xiuzhen, ewan, danieltay]. and it's fun being racist and elitist with daniel. xiuzhen is as hilarious as usual just that thanks to GP it isn't as funny as it was with pat. ewan tries too hard but he's nice. matthew blinks! oh the only problem is with my PW groupmate waichoong - both of us keep fighting ._.

hmm from the 4F guys - danielng is nice just that he's like part 6L. lol. hezhiyuan is another crazy one. and he's very bitchy. chew is a nice guy and reliable. and good at counselling people. especially ziyang. kewei has a disgusting haircut. and he's fun to bully.

and the girls are all damn nice. and not bitchy. and like tianran is a very interesting character. XD

yeah problem is none of the fun people are in geog. and since geog periods always clash with econs [i.e. geog is free when econs isn't and vice versa] so my free blocks tend to be quite sian. and geog tutorials are also especially sian but that's enough material for another post.

also since the fun people take physRA [and the only physRP people in 6I are those who don't do econs ._.] physics tutorials are also rather zzz. but at least there are 2 people from 6K in my tutorial who program their GCs every lecture and tutorial. and my physics class only has 15 people. and I believe only 2 of these have english names.

ok so yeah it's a very mixed bag but yeah it could have been worse!
so yay. and like we have a lot of class outings.

and now I should go back to GP. ugh.

oh yes I need to rant about it.
another time then.

oh and I slept at 2 yesterday thanks to FPS. and after GP I have to chiong PW ._. which will probably mean another late night. gosh.

and what am I doing? updating this thing. XD
mainly cos I think this blog has been dead long enough. and cos I'm really bored and cos I don't feel like starting on anything on the list. which will probably get me into some trouble soon enough.

and I wonder how many people actually have discovered that I've started updating this thing again. cos like yeah last year I know this blog had a whole bunch of stalkers WHO REFUSE TO TAG but after [close to] 5 months of inaction I wonder how many still come here.

hmm.

ok I probably should continue with where I left off which was somewhere in term 1.
so anyway I kinda screwed up my CCA transcript and everything already cos I ponned too much of bridge AND oneearth so like no position whatsoever. yay. and of course I refuse to join any science-related CCAs ._.

ok wait I'm getting ahead of myself and I don't think this post is in chronological order anymore.

wait it never was.

ok nevermind let's just take things as they appear.
hmm so anyway I've been ponning cos I've been going back to RI. i.e. the secondary one for those of you who think RJ is now called RI ._.
cos in case you didn't already know I'm helping out with RIRC [still]. and for those who knew me in like sec2/3 it's rather shocking I know. in fact come to think of it at times I still can't believe I'm actually going back to a CCA that .... [fill it in yourself]. yeah also I was training the geogRA sec3s for NUS GC [which they won. shockingly] for a large part of term1 and 2. in fact cos of RC and GC I ended up going for 42 hours without sleep on 2 days in the march hols. lol.

ok wait more about GC it's supposedly the most prestigious geo comp in Singapore [and yes the winner this year gets to go for the nat geo international thingy which is either in USA or sydney]. but IMHO the rigour of the competition has really dropped. so yeah although we didn't expect them to win [really] we were in part helped by how easy the last 2 rounds were.

oops.

but yeah it was a really fun experience camping in school until 9pm on most days teaching them geog. and getting all the food from OWL and stuff. and fyi this year's sec3 geogRA batch is proving to be worse than ours. I mean they're calling her mdm boey already now ._. and they've been flooding the OWL fan club.

geog in RI is so fun. unlike RJ. oh yes I need to bitch about that too. but later.

ok what else hmm I can't quite remember most of term2.

and I need to shower cos I just got home so shall continue later.

ok a list of things I need to blog about [mainly for my reference but yeah it'll also keep the stalkers interested]:
1. new class.
2. JC life in general
3. more recent things [i.e. not ancient history. and it's almost the end of term 2 ._.]
4. PW, PI and the post-PI party
5. bitch about geog and GP
6. emo stuff! yeah JC is making me kinda emo. ugh.
7. no idea. but at least this blog is becoming more up to date.


oh and for those who were wondering no I haven't found a girlfriend. and yeah in case you didn't know my class only has 3 girls.

so effectively I know less than 20 girls in the whole of RJ.

so there.

383/I must be very bored

ugh school.
I've been slacking ever since I've gotten back from class camp.

so I haven't really done any work.
or anything that I've been wanting/planning/intending to do.
oops.

yeah so all things considered I'm pretty much screwed now.
like GP I owe him a lot of articles.
chem I can't bear to touch it. and it's not like I do my tutorials.
geog I'm so gonna die for economic geo. and yeah I'm not doing the essay practice cos I don't like the question and I'm too lazy to do it.
and physical has just so much to mug.
math is manageable cos it's just stats. and as long as I don't misread the question. and only if I don't screw up P&C [which is actually a very big if]
physics is incomprehensible as always but at least there's like no work for it. =D and speaking of which I can't seem to relate all the whole spam of topics like from kinematics all the way to work energy power they all seem very disjoint to me. argh.
oh and my PW group is screwed.

I should just like heck A levels and go NUS and take geo right ._.

and I suspect wty is starting to realise how much of a slacker I am.
ohno.

382/whatever

PW is giving me hell.

and so is chem [cos I can't stand those problem-solving type questions]. and like now I'm expected to work hard. ugh.
physics is somehow doable if I have my notes in front of me XD
I've a bad feeling about geog - cos physical is just SPAM which I can't remember and human is rubbish. I wonder why.
math is alright but it's just stats.
no comments about GP as usual.

ok where did I stop the last time - orientation!
oh did I mention that my OG got like 2nd for ea. yay for geog skillz. and that reminds me we haven't even spent the prize money yet [I think]. but then again they don't read my blog so nevermind about that.

ok so like orientation day 4 getting our classes it was quite epic.
cos like we got our classes from OGLs in the hall and then like on the way to blocks ABCDE I like bumped into matthew and like what he's in 6I then all the PHYSICSRA guys also in 6I then I was like huh. you should know what I feel about physics XD.

so yeah anyway my class is like disgustingly overpowered. and we only have 3 girls! however it was like 1000x more mugger than 4H so I dunno at the start it seemed quite bad.

ok what else now after orientation... first few lectures were zzz. actually most of them are. and I screwed up the stoichio pre-test [cos it's math]. and yeah chemRA got invaded by PRC ._. so no more fun with siakpeng or whatnot.

yeah as you can see I really do miss RI life.

so subjects:
physics started really badly [the first topic [and lecturer] was a joke]. and my physics tutor at first was like quite incomprehensible. and it doesn't help that my physics class is damn zzz [most of the 6I people are in RA so the boring ones are in RP]. or that I never do my tutorials ahead of time.

and I seriously hate the lecture-tutorial system. cos like lectures you don't really learn anything from watching the lecturer read off the lecture notes. and the problem is cos I already know half the things the lecturer is saying [but not the other half] I don't exactly pay attention and I get distracted and all that. plus my mind has this tendency to wander off all over the place. so like at the end of every lecture I look at the tutorial questions and I'm like huh what the heck is going on. and of course tutorials are always behind lecture so like you're effectively doing 2 topics at once. [well now physics we've finished work energy and power tutorial while the lecturer is barely through with thermal 2 so...]

and yes I never do my tutorials. I like do them during the tutorial period itself like just before the tutor goes through that question ._.
and it doesn't help that physics is often so incomprehensible that I end up getting stuck.

and all my TYSs are rotting away in my locker.
oops.

yeah I'm damn lazy.

ok so anyway back to like post-orientation...
the lecture-only timetable was amazing ._.
and yay for all sorts of random class outings.

hmm take5 is overrated seriously though.
cos it's damn hot XD. and if you don't like sports there's nothing much to do. and our class was smart enough not to bring a groundsheet XD
and I think the OG kinda hated me cos I went with 6I then they saw me and danieltay was like "martin thinks you guys are stupid" ._.

stupid daniel.

but take5 was rather sianz.
so anyway after that to vivo for lunch [where we met the rafflesian spirit who incidentally takes 6I physRA] and then to ECP ._.
like from one beach to another.
cos like the scholars wanted to go cycling or rollerblading or sth.
so after a long journey we finally got there. yay.
and obviously I didn't cycle or skate cos I'd cause an accident. so just slacked and talked with yiyan and mr lu and like laughed at the rest who were well quite silly.
especially those on blades.

ok what else happened in feb/march... no idea really.

shall continue another time then.

EH AT LEAST I'M BLOGGING LOR.

381 / yeah I guess I must be very bored right now

hmm.

somehow I keep getting this urge to blog.

or maybe it's cos I've been slacking the entire day.

but then again I should be sleeping.
and I don't feel like continuing with feb/march/april XD.
[not that I can remember much, but what I can remember is still quite a lot.]

so yeah just dropping by here.
and I've got to update my links. ohno.

ok this post is a waste of text.
nevermind.



sleepy.

380 [after 5 months]

gosh this is like the first time I'm like really free enough to blog.
ok fine I was quite free in jan but I can't remember what I did then.

well yeah this should by right be an extremely long post [to make up for the 5 months of inaction] but I kinda forgot most of the stuff that happened like in jan/feb/march and maybe even april.

oops.

can't remember what I did on new year's. or any part of january.

I suspect that there was a 4H chalet some time in january. which I went late for. can't remember why though. and can barely remember what I did then except for not sleeping for an entire night. oh I think I went late cos of some meeting - or maybe cos I missed one day of the chalet - can't remember - well anyway after that I distinctly recall having to rush back to school the next day and only sleeping like 15 min on the train between pasir ris and kallang. and btw that was during the holidays [i.e. that period of time between when RI starts and RJ starts].

zzz.

ok what else did I do in january before JIP...

subject combinations!
so eventually after much pain I decided on PCMG. [which I'm not really regretting now come to think of it. except maybe I should have taken GELM. but yeah for a period of time I did consider transferring to S03E. oops.]

ok this blogpost is starting to get messy cos I'm like trying to condense 5 months of stuff into this thing.

yeah so anyway speaking of subject combinations I very nearly decided to do H1 german. but then like that'd mean I'd have to appeal for my H3 and considering my wonderful C6 in HCL I doubt that that will go through

oh yes HCL - 4H was the class with the most A2s in the whole level [I blame that on us being marked after 4E 4F and 4G which all had like a lot of A1s - I wonder why]. and I was after clement and junyang also ._. yeah so I got killed by baozhang. and it's damn funny considering how I got a B3 in prelims ._.

but YAY I PASSED CHINESE AND I DON'T HAVE TO SPEAK IT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!

yep haven't used any chinese in about 5 months. ordering food obviously doesn't count.

ok so now back to school - JIP was a total waste of time. like sitting in the MPH for hours on end getting bored to death by [useless] subject talks.

but at least I only signed up for one elective. which meant that I had most of JIP free [to go back to RIRC] anyway.

so anyway off to orientation - which was like HOW MUCH BETTER ORGANISED THAN THE RI ONES ._. [but RI orientation is a camp. which is unfair ._.] - just that with 60 OGs and over 1200 people yeah there are of course some problems [e.g. everything behind schedule] and all the games weren't exactly that great. but at least the ideas were quite ok. and the storyline was admittedly good. but rather disjoint.

ok now to the OG - seemed quite stone at first [and in fact it still is ._.] but yeah at least it's filled with nice people. yay. and my OGLs rock XD. but like the OG is kinda drifting apart I think. meh. but at least we still say hi to each other. except for a certain person from 4F/S03F who just disappeared after orientation. cough.

ok I'm getting bored of blogging now and there's really such a huge backlog to clear so yeah I'll move on to feb like the next time I decide to write XD.
