I'm posting with an amazing regularity now.
lol.
ok fine it's just the 2nd post in as many days.
but compared to the shortfall in the rest of the year yes I'm prepared to consider it regular.
so today went to school for MORNING ASSEMBLY!
and to laugh at all the econs people. so walked over to the MPH with them to wish them luck [they'll need it].
oh now I'm re-reading my may posts [which were about january/february and heck I really miss the start of J1. meh]
ok anyway back to today went to canteen thereafter met marken who was mugging for CL and yap who didn't know what time his CL paper was and thus came to school 6 hours early. just in case.
._.
so anyway tackled a handful of probability and distribution questions. then finished summarising most of hydro [except flooding cos by then I got bored].
anyway back to the present I'm re-reading my old posts and laughing at myself.
lol.
ok so this morning the canteen was really empty [no annoying J2s and just a handful of people mugging. like me. cos really if I stayed at home I'd wake up at 11 and get on the comp and stay on until 11pm and go sleep. so at least I was semi-productive today]. so it was quite nice. just that a whole bunch of teachers were having breakfast and it was damn noisy.
they are seriously too free.
so anyway after that econs came out after having been delayed since they decided to give everyone a 15-20 minute toilet break between case study and essay ._. and they apparently took a hell of a long time to finish collecting.
so had lunch with econs people then went home and slacked.
hey at least I was rather/somewhat productive in the morning.
so got home at about 2 slept until 5 went on the com and read stuff like wiki and bbc news and the newyorktimes and of course fb. then got bored so I'm here.
and I can't believe I'm like updating so often now that it's PROMOS.
maybe cos there's no PW to do now.
and maybe cos I feel kinda prepared for math having actually done some bits of the september hols revision exercise + mock promo + prelim stats section.
and maybe cos I feel kinda prepared for physical now since all I need to do is just read the 24 cards of physical geog. lol.
and cos I know I can't really do much for human except smoke.
so all that's left is physics. urgh. but there's always tomorrow after math!
[of course more likely than not I'll end up slacking tomorrow afternoon but things can always change you never know.]
but seriously phys chem and math are easy As [which is why I'm like not worried at all] but it's just a matter of the percentile.
and I'm worried about my percentile. ugh.
but still too lazy to do anything about it. well fine maybe I'm practising a bit more than I did for CTs. so percentage wise I think my productivity/effort is up by a lot XD. but whatever.
ok I'm still to lazy to post about the taiwan trip [ok fine some things never change] so shall go find someone to talk to over msn.
lol. and why am I blogging right now of all things?
oh yes cos I'm bored.
damn.
[edit: rant - why the heck is the RI library so crowded now. and why the hell are the sec1s-4s so damn noisy. but the place is still much better than RJ. and the sofas pwn].

argh I'm very bored today.
hmm last posted on saturday so not much to fill people in with lol.
anyway monday - went to school and managed to clear most of physical geog in 5 hours [excluding a very long lunch break]. yay condensed all of litho onto 9 index cards. but kinda cheated cos I used a 0.38 pen sometimes.
so now I feel semi-confident. but I wonder how much went in.
then after that went home and slacked. and kinda like gave up on GP.
hmm haven't started on human though.
today - sadly no environment question came out. so I picked the closest geog related one - something about raising the retirement age being a necessary evil in today's society.
which is really just ageing population + solutions. lol. but problem is I don't think I addressed necessary evil well enough. eek.
and my writing speed has fallen only managed 4.5 sides in 1.5 hours.
this does not bode well for geog.
compre was horrible. messed up the structured questions and vocab. oops. and spent too much time on summary resulting in a very very very very very badly done AQ. cos I was really doing it stream-of-consciousness style without proper planning.
and the question itself was weird. sighs.
anyway got home about 3 today. weather was good.
so I actually did some work! went to download every single attachment wty sent us ._.
and arranged and compiled them very nicely. so I'm all prepared for mugging for chemO once promos end [like I will but still one can always hope].
hmm so yeah I haven't done much mugging. but YAY I HAVE TOMORROW FREE. take that econs people.
but I'll most probably go to school if I want to get some studying done lol. cos if I stay at home I can so guess what will happen. but damn that means I'll need to wake up early. argh.
3 more days to geog/phys and then promos are OVER!
lol. yes chem doesn't count XD.

394/er how many more days
ok this is bad I'm totally not concentrating on my mugging at all.
inertia.
whatever.
ok so I've been very distracted today. and in fact the past week.
but then again I've done more prep then like ever before cos I've actually done what a mock chem paper and a mock physics paper and a mock math paper. when I actually can't be bothered to practice.
lol.
anyway hmm oops it seems that I last posted about a week ago and I feel lazy to recap everything that happened this week. meh. ok so let's work backwards again until I feel like giving up.
today was math mock promo. went quite well just that I must stop making stupid mistakes. like changing + signs to - signs ._.
like I keep copying the question wrongly.
and I must stop wasting so much time on curve sketching. and I need to get a ruler. oops.
after mock promo went for lunch then slacked the rest of the day.
[like now. oops]
friday - first 2 blocks free cos jason lai cancelled lecture ._. and no PW. so spent the morning reading other classes' GP notes which are so much more useful than what I get. meh.
PE was tiring. I do not like soccer.
then another chunk of free blocks. got KS bull. essays in there were bull as usual.
ate lunch even though it was only 11am. [Friday's timetable really sucks].
then 1h30 of GP. which was zzz as usual. and since he's so slow at going through things I keep vandalising and drawing on my GP handouts.
and speaking of which I need to work on my drawing skills/find more things to draw.
so shockingly I got a 6 for my AQ. which I attribute to spending 40 min on it and spamming and spamming. even though he says don't spam and he already said I ramble too much [but gave me a 6 anyway ._.]
I still have totally no confidence for my essays. or for compres. oops.
so I'm just gonna leave GP to the hands of whatever marker I get. meh.
then 2h of chem. first a test with a very evil elucidation question on ALKENES. I mean like what the hell can you elucidate about alkenes. ugh.
and I keep losing track of carbons. and I so cannot join bits and pieces of the molecule together in my head lol.
hmm then going through the mock papers and stuff. peer marking is fun.
yeah so as usual he dragged until 330. i.e. when the aircon turns off.
hmm so after that back home and well read a bit and spent way too much time online again.
thursday - first block free. sat in chem lecture and did part of the paper that wty went through on friday [i.e. see above]. the lecturer is horrible. but so is the lecture group. hmm. next block free again. joined 6A in the canteen to eat/talk/play on clement's iphone.
3rd block geog - got back the hydro essay which I was so sure I messed up but somehow still got 13. so that's something good that comes out of spamming info. yay. but need to work on my diagrams. and handwriting. and speed. target 4 sides in 30 min.
then physics lecture - was revision went through some other mock promo questions. somehow I find physics easy. well most straightforward questions that is. so promo should be doable if I memorise my definitions and formulae and whack correctly. yay.
math lecture was zzz. can't remember what I was doing but it couldn't have been interesting. I presume it was finishing up that chem paper I was doing in chem lecture [the woman's voice was annoying so I kept getting distracted].
PE was floorball. which was fun but tiring. and my specs keep falling off.
then 2 blocks free yet again. then math tutorial which was stats recap. yay.
then chem koped enrichment ra slot for the umpteenth time. to go through that lecture test. In which I made quite a few stupid mistakes. ugh.
oh speaking of chem I cannot stand equilibria questions cos I keep messing up ICE tables. and structure/bonding is horrible cos I keep writing essays for each question since I don't exactly know which marking points are required. and yet I can still miss some. ew.
and I'm so gonna screw up stoichio mcqs during promo. meh.
ok so after thurs went home and didn't do anything as usual.
hmm weds math was finishing APGP I think. phys went to lab for first bit to see some interference demos. which was fun. and a pleasant waste of time. then for tutorial where he took his own time in going through the last few questions lol. somehow I can stand 2hr phys blocks more than 2hr chem ones. maybe cos he lets us off early.
then free which was rather boring cos the rest of the class had econs lecture. then GP which I totally cannot remember what happened. eh wait he went through paragraphs from essays. and I did a lot of drawing/vandalism.
and the whole class doesn't really answer his questions so he wastes a lot of time waiting lol.
then loitered around in the canteen and library and did some parts of wty's mock promo. then off for RC stuff then got home late and didn't do anything after I got back.
you can start to see a trend here and understand why I'm so screwed for promo lol.
am too lazy to write about tues/mon lol. sleepy.
this is really bad. must mug geog tomorrow urgh.
inertia.
whatever.

393/sleepy
hmm got home at 3 today.
slept at 4
woke up at 7 for dinner
now feel like sleeping again.
productive much.
but then again I spent the whole of sat and sun doing PW.
ok fine sat I woke up at noon. and sun I had a headache after lunch so like spent 1pm - 6pm slacking.
but still.
and I kept telling myself to post over the course of the last week but it seems like I haven't really posted seeing how the last post was dated last monday. oops.
anyways hmm lemme go backwards. friday was long and drawn-out as usual. with no break since cheng koped it. and it was very wet. especialy since xiuzhen decided to walk in the rain after PE and we followed [cos it was theoretically the shortest route to the canteen]. but RJ classrooms have nice floors that let you go barefoot in. and I like walking without shoes.
meh.
and I keep getting pwned by my essays. oops. like how I just flunked the most recent GP one. but then again that was cos of epic misinterpretation of the question cos I thought scientists being concerned about their inventions/discoveries = whether they should care what might happen and hence stop what they're doing to prevent anything bad from happening while what he wanted is something about whether they should be held accountable.
so my stand was like what no don't care just do your research you can't predict what will happen anyway. so just do science and leave the real world to the politicians.
oops sweeping statements much. and the thing is I'm too used to arguing geog style i.e. black vs white but then GP is a whole bunch of shades of grey that we should be considering. ew.
and my structure/phrasing often borders on the verge of incoherence most of the time.
lol. and I ramble too much.
so I'm kinda worried. especially since how GP is totally hit-or-miss.
argh.
anyway ok back to school life.
so after 2 hours of chem tutorial [which was preceded by 2h30 of GP] - I really really really hate fridays - went back to RI for RC POP. which was fun. and went rather well. but problem is it ended at what 9. then went to J8 to eat. and ended up reaching home past midnight.
[which explains why I woke up at noon on saturday anyway].
can't remember much on thursday just that some of us were desperately trying to spam reaction kinetics II for the RA phys chem test. Michaelis-menten is actually quite fun and understandable now. but I hate all the disgusting integration. and then nothing actually came out.
and for the RA phys chem test they were damn stingy with the mark allocation lol.
anyway my timetable is like zzz cos now I've got chem lecture slots free. so like for example my tuesdays look like civics geog math free physics free physics free PW. while thursdays are free free geog physics math PE free free math enrichment RA.
and I have a tendency to eat at every opportunity/free block that I get. of which there are very many.
and if I go to the library I always get distracted by the huge shelf of past year RJ papers. and end up reading them just for fun and not really doing any of the questions. oops.
and I must stop sleeping and slacking.
ok shall not delve into wednesday or even tuesday cos frankly I can barely remember what happened.
and I shall not rant about RJ human geog dept. or crappy human geog lectures and notes.
hmm what else nothing much I guess I feel like sleeping now.
zzz

392/merde
yay I'm posting again cos I'm still really bored.
but not that bored so I shall just talk about today and save taiwan for later.
I failed [or at least very very nearly failed] my geog lecture test. ugh.
cos the question was bad. but so was my writing and my phrasing and most of my paragraphs. eek. so I'm kinda worried for my promo now. especially since pop geog isn't as smokable as econ geog/globalisation. meh.
and I so cannot stand hydro essays. and speaking of which I'll get back my hydro essay on thurs which I think I flunked again due to poor time management and spending too much time writing crap. oops.
well today came to school for 2 blocks only ._. protected time was free. so stoned in the canteen for a very long time. but at least there were fun people to talk to like 6L and jy and the CO people and snao and his friend. and ziyang gave us a disgusting physics question that we spent close to an hour obsessing over.
and yet I still don't get it.
but it's physics! whee.
then it turned out that GP was a free block. cos he was on MC. but sadly that means I'll have no break on friday yet again. cos he's koping it to makeup ._.
ew.
so anyway spent GP slacking in the classroom. and since the bell was turned off thanks to J2 prelims most of us were very nearly late for the next period.
and then was geog which was bad as mentioned above. haiz.
then another break which was spent in canteen playing on clement's iphone lol.
then chem. which would have been fun just that wty goes damn slowly and keeps getting distracted. and people don't do their tutorials so when they go up to the board to present they do on the spot and take bloody long.
unlike me who doesn't do his tutorials but can do them on the spot very efficiently XD.
so we did like what 3 questions in 1 lesson.
[and physics we can finish half a tutorial in a period meh.]
then after that was off to RI to settle RC stuff.
got home about 715 and have been slacking ever since.
and it's a bit weird getting back into the full school routine. especially seeing how in week10 we didn't have tuesday or wednesday.
lol.

391/boredom
hmm this is like the first time I'm posting in ages lol.
mainly cos now I'm damn bored and I have nothing better to do. oh and I've been extremely bored/distracted these past few days. which is probably what led me to posting again.
anyways I've like spent monday tuesday wednesday thursday and saturday in school.
and it's like sunday night and like where the heck have all the holidays gone ._.
anyway I shan't bother giving a run-down of term 3 cos I think I'll get bored before half of it is over [and also cos I can't quite remember what happened - how the heck am I gonna do my promos if I've forgotten everything I wonder]. but I think I'll talk about taiwan like later.
or in a next post.
so anyway recap of the holidays - and that reminds me I can't remember what I did on saturday and sunday before the hols either. oh wait practice the piano - oops I took grade 7 on tues and totally messed it up [mainly cos I didn't finish learning one of the pieces lol]
yeah so sat/sun were boring. monday was wty in school. ew. and seriously phys chem is zzz. but at least he ended before 12.
can't remember what I did after that but I think it involved lunch atop J8. which was quite fun. oh wait that was thursday. monday's lunch was in the canteen. oops.
then I'm /guessing/ I went home but I'm not too sure.
[argh my memory is really really going]. so anyway yes monday after camping in the canteen for a bit I believe I went home.
oh yes chemO only started at 9am so what I did was come to school at 720 as usual [cos I'm lazy to take public transport] then spent a significant amount of time at the raja block sleeping. but the tables are not very conducive for sleeping but at least it isn't hot and stuffy like the RJ canteen. ew.
ok so tuesday came to school early again went to RI cos it was green game [for those who don't know what this is it's some humans club quiz-like thingy for primary school kids]. but anyway organisation total phailed so had do sort quite a few things out for them before running back to chem O ._.
chemO was disgustingly boring and quite honestly I hate organic chem. lol. messed up the org chem test which we got back cos I forgot all my reaction conditions and just put heat for all of them which I wasn't quite sure ._. and made a hell lot of silly mistakes. oops.
[but in defence it was like just after I came back from taiwan and the only revision I did was that mindmap thing on discovery so whatever]
then off to the piano exam, was a nervous wreck and messed everything up. will be a miracle if I pass lol.
then after that to hell with piano. for like the rest of my life. yay.
meanwhile I was intending to spend tuesday evening and the whole of wed rewriting WR in preparation for consult on thurs [and anyway anything that danieltay sends has to be rewritten e.g. he gave me a 1.2k word chapter 2 zzz]. then wwc and daniel decided to meet in school on wed so that totally cut short my sleeping time [intended to like wake up at what 1pm on wed or something lol].
went to school at 12 on wed for lunch. waited for wwc to show up. spent the time talking with the class [which just came down from physO lol] and watching other groups do last-minute work on their WRs in preparation for their consults in the afternoon [my group was the only one consulting on thurs - and incidentally was the first group for thurs which led to some interesting things as you'll see later].
then I realised I forgot to bring the copy of 2nd draft of the WR on which we'd taken down her comments from the first consult. so went back home and got it.
and when I got back the other 2 didn't get anything done at all.
._.
so anyway we relocated from the canteen to comp lab 7 where she was consulting 3F [and very behind time already - 2 hours I think when I got there]. so did the writing there and it was somewhat productive if not for the fact that there was a consultation going on in the background and the other groups were doing either last-minute work or slacking or mugging chem in preparation for wty's NEXT org chem test on thurs [which I totally couldn't be bothered with cos there was the WR to do].
so anyway hezhiyuan's group totally dragged [and theirs was the first group from our class] so the other groups got pissed. and decided to buy dinner back [she was supposed to end all of the day's consults at 545 but like at that time she still had 3 more groups to go?] from J8.
and waichoong and I were happily camping in the complab still writing the WR. lol.
after about 630 the aircon in the complab failed. so after enduring the heat for a bit we relocated to the wishing well. so like she kept talking and waichoong and I kept typing while danieltay escaped to mug chem [but at least he paid us to zao ._.]
so eventually our dinners came [from people like tianran and matthew who went out to buy them] and most of us [i.e. the remaining groups] ate at the wishing well while she continued to talk.
so eventually she finished ziyang's group at 830. and still had one more group to go! [that group was supposed to have started consult at 5].
so most of us just left with ziyang's group. lol. then poor chew and matt were left consulting late into the night [apparently they were chased away by the security guards at 10pm].
but RJ at night is nice.
almost as nice as RI at night. [the admin block can get /really/ dark when you turn off all the lights lol]
anyway got home and continued typing the WR.
eventually got chapter 4 done at about 1. [chapter 5 just wrote crap]
then started skimming all of wty's advanced org chem stuff [i.e. copied down reactions and tried to memorise them].
ended up sleeping at 2 with nothing much going in.
went to school early again on thursday [this time for consult lol]. just that wwc was late so we started at 810 ._.
then basically it dragged until 930. but at least she liked everything just that she pointed out quite a few major flaws in the approach. but helped us fix them. yay.
so anyway our consult was supposed to have been 8 - 845 then we had 7B after us with their first group at 845 - 930. so effectively we ate up one group's slot.
so anyway what she then did was to tell 7B to tell everyone in their class to come an hour later. lol.
so that's like one hour's delay after the first group [out of 10!] for the day.
anyway wty's org chem test was supposed to start at 9.
lol.
anyway the advanced org chem test was utter bs [maybe cos I didn't bother/have time for mugging or anything] so yeah obviously it went very very badly. but whatever at least I got /one/ synthesis question [partially] right.
yay for unethical H2 reagents/conditions!
oh yes and I think I've already forgotten all the org chem [which isn't much really] I've crammed for that test. which means I'll need to re-mug.
ew. after promos. or maybe when I'm really really really really bored and also when I get around to printing all the notes. which will kill a lot of trees. seriously he's worse than OWL lol.
k so anyway after the test went to J8 for lunch. ah yeah now things are in the right order lol. so talked for quite a bit at that open space on the 3rd floor.
then went home and slacked.
friday went for some wedding. ate too much. then went home and slacked even more.
saturday somehow ziyang convinced me to start mugging for promos so went to school and met up with him and a bunch of 6L people [koh, chops, zhengyang and wei-jen]. so from 9 to 12 I tried my hand at some mugging that wasn't last minute for once.
and being extremely efficient in that time I managed to finish
1. my math assignment!
2. a handful of stoichio questions in that chem booklet. ok fine 2 of them
3. 4 P&C questions from the math revision set.
and yeah that's all.
spent the rest of the time talking lol.
but was quite fun.
then went for lunch then went back to school for an RC meeting then back home to do work i.e. slack.
then today again spent the whole time slacking online.
but at least I've read quite a bit this break. of like wikipedia.
and the online version of the new york times [sadly now they lock you out after a few articles and try to get you to sign up or whatever]. and I've done quite a lot of fb stalking too. lol.
and like now it's sunday night and I'm like where the hell did my holiday go.
my fingers are tired. and I think it took me about 45 min to type all this incoherent stuff lol.
now I'm bored again. yay.
mainly cos now I'm damn bored and I have nothing better to do. oh and I've been extremely bored/distracted these past few days. which is probably what led me to posting again.
anyways I've like spent monday tuesday wednesday thursday and saturday in school.
and it's like sunday night and like where the heck have all the holidays gone ._.
anyway I shan't bother giving a run-down of term 3 cos I think I'll get bored before half of it is over [and also cos I can't quite remember what happened - how the heck am I gonna do my promos if I've forgotten everything I wonder]. but I think I'll talk about taiwan like later.
or in a next post.
so anyway recap of the holidays - and that reminds me I can't remember what I did on saturday and sunday before the hols either. oh wait practice the piano - oops I took grade 7 on tues and totally messed it up [mainly cos I didn't finish learning one of the pieces lol]
yeah so sat/sun were boring. monday was wty in school. ew. and seriously phys chem is zzz. but at least he ended before 12.
can't remember what I did after that but I think it involved lunch atop J8. which was quite fun. oh wait that was thursday. monday's lunch was in the canteen. oops.
then I'm /guessing/ I went home but I'm not too sure.
[argh my memory is really really going]. so anyway yes monday after camping in the canteen for a bit I believe I went home.
oh yes chemO only started at 9am so what I did was come to school at 720 as usual [cos I'm lazy to take public transport] then spent a significant amount of time at the raja block sleeping. but the tables are not very conducive for sleeping but at least it isn't hot and stuffy like the RJ canteen. ew.
ok so tuesday came to school early again went to RI cos it was green game [for those who don't know what this is it's some humans club quiz-like thingy for primary school kids]. but anyway organisation total phailed so had do sort quite a few things out for them before running back to chem O ._.
chemO was disgustingly boring and quite honestly I hate organic chem. lol. messed up the org chem test which we got back cos I forgot all my reaction conditions and just put heat for all of them which I wasn't quite sure ._. and made a hell lot of silly mistakes. oops.
[but in defence it was like just after I came back from taiwan and the only revision I did was that mindmap thing on discovery so whatever]
then off to the piano exam, was a nervous wreck and messed everything up. will be a miracle if I pass lol.
then after that to hell with piano. for like the rest of my life. yay.
meanwhile I was intending to spend tuesday evening and the whole of wed rewriting WR in preparation for consult on thurs [and anyway anything that danieltay sends has to be rewritten e.g. he gave me a 1.2k word chapter 2 zzz]. then wwc and daniel decided to meet in school on wed so that totally cut short my sleeping time [intended to like wake up at what 1pm on wed or something lol].
went to school at 12 on wed for lunch. waited for wwc to show up. spent the time talking with the class [which just came down from physO lol] and watching other groups do last-minute work on their WRs in preparation for their consults in the afternoon [my group was the only one consulting on thurs - and incidentally was the first group for thurs which led to some interesting things as you'll see later].
then I realised I forgot to bring the copy of 2nd draft of the WR on which we'd taken down her comments from the first consult. so went back home and got it.
and when I got back the other 2 didn't get anything done at all.
._.
so anyway we relocated from the canteen to comp lab 7 where she was consulting 3F [and very behind time already - 2 hours I think when I got there]. so did the writing there and it was somewhat productive if not for the fact that there was a consultation going on in the background and the other groups were doing either last-minute work or slacking or mugging chem in preparation for wty's NEXT org chem test on thurs [which I totally couldn't be bothered with cos there was the WR to do].
