329 [is a weird number]

ok I'm seriously sick.

wasted about 2 packets of tissue in school already. however on the brighter side of things I've managed to complete that 2-month overdue yilunwen. well actually I did it during all the lessons today. and thanks junyang for helping me find the points from all those readings that came with the question paper. =D

but then I'm really VERY tired. and OWL's going to murder me if she finds out how much/little I've prepared for geochallenge.

ugh.

today:

math was SLACK. and/or useless. and we managed to lock the relief out of class with the aid of a few chairs.

then bio was fun. just that we were all falling asleep - apparently I'm not the only overworked one. but then LHL is seriously a great teacher so yeah.

anyway he released us early so I decided to eat recess [instead of lunch] for once. then on my way back from the canteen saw an ambulance + 2 police cars at the admin block. turns out that ben [chin] got injured during his PE lesson. concussion or something.

then um english... PN was being random as usual. got through our speeches, waichoong was attempting to suan mine but then dunno his argument wasn't that strong. or maybe I'm just biased. XD

CLE into SS. which was boring.

then last period phys. which was actually quite interesting cos he was in a good mood - but then again CCK is usually quite happy with 4H. =D

after that remained in class and managed to finish the zuowen. then chem in the lab - FAIL TITRATION. cos the figures were weird and we ran out of time. and I'm sure you need like to burette MORE than 50cm3 of a substance to titrate it. so in the end KSP just gave up.

then followed KSP and 4T to SGH to visit ben. who seemed quite ok [but with a bit of memory loss - he couldn't remember anything that happened today and some parts of yesterday]. and I tried to trick him and stuff but it didn't work. XD. and well however he still remembered LHL's announcement today. which was really funny/impactful. and the look on RS's face when she saw him go up was LOL. but yes it was like the only memorable announcement today. except for that chess one "deputy senior headmaster" and something along the lines of "inguidance" i.e. "invaluable guidance" IIRC. or might have been un-something. see my memory is really going. oh and that sec2 waterpolo thing whose tone was so ugh.


zzz off to sleep. and hopefully I'm not too sick tomorrow.

1 April 2009

328

hmm today was quite tiring.

especially since I slept at 1am yesterday.

cos I was doing a geog project which ENDED UP BEING EXTENDED.

[well actually I got forced to stay awake. like wth.]

so guess what I'm falling sick now.

and I seriously need to do my stupid HCL essay.

damn.

31 March 2009

327 [ok that's a nice number too]

hmm left school at 2030 today.

and I'm still awake trying to chiong geog presentation.

apparently the deadline for keying in of marks is NEXT TUESDAY not this saturday.

which means a TINY reprieve from my geog essay for now.
and OWL said not to hand in too soon anyway cos she has to mark SS. yay.

ugh I'm so going to DIE from lack of sleep.

and PE tomorrow morning. damn.

and I'm going to die during HCL.

been blogsurfing just now while waiting for aaron/kirk to send me their stuff for geog. and I'm seriously not even typing in complete paragraphs now.

well maybe it's just too much msn. or maybe cos my mind always tends to wander.



and since I'm really really bored now... shall do one of those horrible facebook thingies on this blog. cos seriously it would have more of an impact here.

so anyway if you were wondering it's that 15/17/20/21 random things thing.
so I shall just do as many as I can until I run out of things to say.


1. I'm actually a VERY boring person. I mean my life is basically stay in school and stone, then get home, shower/eat, go on msn, blogsurf, read random stuff online [mainly wikipedia] then go sleep. and repeat 5 days a week. saturdays and sundays are usually spent making up for sleep debt.

2. I am VERY opinionated. as in either I like something [2Q, 4H, frankenberg, RLP, OIP] or hate it to the core [RIPB, certain CCAs, certain people etc]. so yes I'm very biased.

3. I have a horrible memory/thought process. so like during a class I can be listening and suddenly get distracted and think of something else and then I realised that I totally didn't hear what the teacher was saying. and then well I keep forgetting stuff. and my thoughts like jump over the place. and ironically to quote some people "I think too much".

4. I do NOT like approaching strangers [as can be evidenced from mock geotrail and all sorts of other things]. I have some weird/innate fear of like people whom I don't know. so really I don't say much [if anything at all] to weird people.

5. however [and strangely] on the other hand once you get to know me you'll find that I talk way too much. and at the wrong time too [e.g. during HCL and then of course I'll speak in english and get scolded by NY]

6. I like being around people/having people to talk to [see 5]. plus I tend to go emo [albeit for VERY short periods of time] when left alone. XD.

7. I gossip a lot. but then again [and seriously this should be a separate point but whatever] if you tell me something and ASK me not to tell everyone else about it I will. strangely enough no one seems to believe me. XD. but then again I do talk too much.

8. I have HORRIBLE mood swings. well fine not exactly mood swings but then my emotions are quite volatile. like one moment I can be shouting at people and the next laughing. but generally I tend to be in quite a good mood most of the time.
unless you piss me off and I scream at you.

9. I speak too quickly. or too slowly. and apparently in a very monotonous fashion too. depending on who you ask though. but then again I tend to get nervous in front of large crowds of strangers [i.e. announcements during morning assembly].

10. my handwriting is [or rather can be] ATROCIOUS. especially for humanities essays. so like last year I think 4 teachers complained about my handwriting during the eoy [for both SS papers - and ms goh even told mrs chee about it as well as for the last section of geog - which warranted two reminders - one at the start and another at the end]

11. I have weird cravings for food. well mainly sweet stuff. but then sometimes I crave meat. and I eat a lot. and seriously I don't care if what I eat is unhealthy as long as it tastes good. =D

12. so from 11 I don't really care much about my weight/appearance anyway. and well by extension I don't worry much about things. so I usually tend to be very carefree and/or happy and stuff. =D

13. I am a stickler for grammar. and FONTS. so like I hate round brackets (i.e. these things) cos they look UGLY. oh and in case you haven't noticed - you must be blind - I tend to overuse dashes and square brackets [i.e. another sign of my thoughts running all over the place]. and I ramble too much.

[oh crap I'm running out of things to write. well actually I've forgotten what I wanted to say just now. damn.]
14. I can swear a lot if I feel like it.

15. I am a slacker [as seen from point 1]. however most people refuse to believe me. well at least I procrastinate a LOT.

16. I'm a little crazy. or very crazy [depending on your definition of crazy in the first place]. but then again aren't we all? ok this doesn't seem to make sense. but whatever.

17. I am still running out of things to say. wait that isn't actually a point. well oh I sometimes I don't really care about a lot of things or rather I don't let things bother me. or maybe I pretend to not let these things bother me. well yeah at times I can just not care about a lot of things - or rather a lot of minor things - but then in actual fact I do have things which/people whom I do care about. so there. so yes most of the time I tend to not be bothered by things [or maybe I pretend not to]. wait I'm rambling/not making sense again.

18. all in all I am [or rather I can be] a very nice person most of the time. as long as I don't hate you. but then again I tend to hate whole groups of people so it tends to be a 'guilt by association' thing so seriously once I get to know you well who knows? but seriously I lack this inclination to be evil/do genuinely evil things. giving my sec2s pushups in batches of 100 is of course something entirely different. cos really it isn't "evil".

19. oh yay I just realised something else. I have a very skewed moral compass. so sometimes I have absolutely no qualms about doing something while at other times I'm like totally against some other things. well of course it comes down to like my criteria that I use to judge things [which sounds so geog-ish and will of course not be revealed here] - so if I feel something is effectively harmless I don't mind doing it.

20. sometimes I put up fronts and stuff. and pretend that things don't affect me/aren't important etc.

21. oh and I could REALLY murder some people right now. XD.


see ugh I am seriously way too temperamental.

326/bloody STDs.

no double meaning intended

but seriously WHY PUT AN STD ON A TUESDAY of all days.

let's see...

woke up, read a book, turned on the com, got reminded that I have elearning to do, did my elearning, and here I am now.


and I have to leave the house VERY soon to go for 3rdlang.

until 545.

then going back to RI to meet for GC [which is of course NUS GeoChallenge NOT the fail gryphon's comm of RIPB - no offence to ben]

until who knows when.

so it really isn't an STD lor.

why can't they have it on WEDNESDAY INSTEAD?


man.

school yesterday was fun.

HCL was bad cos she sent rascal/aaron out. for the whole lesson. and it really wasn't their fault [that time at least].

english was quite ok. just that the speeches get BORING after listening to AMD and AMD and more AMD. Plus IPR too.

math was zzz. vectors are a waste of time. and I still can't see why you can't write a LEFT arrow to show a negative vector. XD.

bio was fun. as usual.

geo was zzz. as usual.

CLE was talking rubbish. as usual.

just that I can't be bothered to go dig up the quotes.

during CCA bumped into NY so she demands my zuowens by TOMORROW.

and I still have OWL's essays.

and I have 3rdlang and all that rubbish today.

oh man.




and the new ez-link cards suck.

anyway off for german. ugh.

29 March 2009

325/whatever

ok I'm only posting in a bid to avoid doing my geog essays [which are like ridiculously overdue].

and the deadline for keying in marks is like 4/4. ugh.

well let's just say that friday was really really good.

1. I passed HCL CCT [which goes to confirm my theory that the harder a chinese test is the better I'll do].
2. my HCL CCT was actually ABOVE AVERAGE.
3. I managed to get 14/15 for my physics practical even though I had this very very strong feeling that my sample was contaminated and thus got a screwed up result [and lost 1 mark because of this. and I can't believe that convection currents as an experimental error was accepted].
4. CCK let us off 5 min early for recess. [cos he'd finished going through the answers to the practical and had nothing else to do. yay.]
5. my english social speech didn't screw up that much [apart from taking 6 minutes to complete] and it generated the largest response [although I don't know if that's a good thing or not]
6. LHL bought icecreams for all of us. =D
7. he let us off early for lunch too!
8. and I skipped HCL remedial. yay.

so yeah that was friday.
now I think I shall go find something else to do [apart from geog]

28 March 2009

324/[fake] geotrail

was really evil.

and by right earth hour's over already but then the lights in my house still aren't going on. and neither are those in most of the other houses by the looks of it.

just that it would have been a LOT better if it were more publicised/coordinated - like around 50% of the windows that I can see from here still have their lights on.

anyway [fake] geotrail was quite fun. although the stations were evil.

and well it confirmed my thesis that I'm totally not creative.

and seriously I eat too much.

ate/drank a grand total of
9 oreos
2 buns [from breadtalk in citylink]
600ml of water
2x 500ml bottles of 100plus
1 regular? [~16oz] sprite
2 pieces of chicken [from KFC]
2 containers? of coleslaw [again from lunch at KFC]
1 regular mountain dew
and some weird thing that we found in plaza sing:
fried mars bars! [well it obviously isn't authentic and the portions are quite small but it DID taste quite good. just that it looked totally gross. cos the bars were coated in batter and then they were served with icecream and CHOCOLATE SAUCE. haha.]

and that was all before 4pm.


haha.

my first [solo] announcement was really quite bad.

cos like I was totally nervous. so like my legs were shaking [and so was my script]. thankfully I managed to speak slowly and well relatively clearly/coherently.

just that like later on everyone asked me why I sounded so sarcastic/sian ._. well maybe that was cos I was trying to prevent myself from like getting too nervous etc. and bryan [cheong] said that I was too monotonous.


my second announcement was significantly better.

granted, my legs were still shaking. but I did manage to get my point across. without sounding TOO sarcastic this time. just that bryan said that I was still too monotonous and that he almost fell asleep. but everyone else said that it was quite good. just that it looked like I ran off the stage.

but seriously it wasn't that bad. considering that I made these 2 announcements one after another. [which is like a new record or something].


ugh.

anyway school: wed
math was zzz. he chionged through ws8 and we managed to start on VECTORS. ugh.

then chem was horrible cos I didn't get what KSP was saying [after all it was more phy/math than chem - well actually in the end I understood a bit. but still.]

and KSP is lazy - he just prints RJC notes for us. XD.

SS essay test was quite bad cos I smoked too much and was a little/quite incoherent. but 5+ sides in 50 min so that was quite good. but NTL's so going to love my handwriting.

HCL was boring - can't even remember what she did. bleh.

english social speeches were quite interesting although the speeches themselves were unremarkable. haha.


as for today - bio was zzz. LHL wasn't in that good a mood. but got back our CCT, 25/30 which was quite ok especially since I didn't mug. just that I missed out a few keywords. ugh.

SS was discussing about active citizenry/civil society and NTL warned me not to bash the govt and to listen to their POV first. [which is actually what I do just that I pretend to be all biased and all that].

chem was zzz. [as usual]

math was even more boring. was trying to fall asleep but couldn't.

HCL - lesson ob by DHM and KL. so it was supposedly philo in HCL but it became too much of a HCL lesson instead. [perhaps cos NY saw how the first socratic seminar phailed.] but like darren said "she tries too hard". but the lesson was quite interesting.

then oh lunch. and geogRA CCT - or as darren put it: writingRA. 25 marks of structured questions [including 3 essay-ish types] in 45 minutes.

ugh.

so as usual noone finished on time.

after that met AHH and went with him to the HML where we met like peiyuan/guanlin/ben/darren [after bio] and the litRA people. so just talked a lot. and found a few books. I can't believe that the HML has DILBERT. well only one book but still.

haha.

now seriously I should go work on my overdue geog essays.

24 March 2009

321

is also a nice number.

yay I've finished everything on my [highly abridged] schedule for today.

i.e. english social speech.
but my script is way too long. and it rambles too much. and some parts don't make much sense considering that I'm half-awake right now.

given up on SS already. but I'll have time to mug during chem/recess I guess.

school today was SLACK.
PE was zzz cos I was running all over the place picking up tennis balls.

my tennis is seriously hopeless.
then after that math TA was easy. just that I screwed up by leaving the angles to 3sf.

geog was slacking/facebooking in the lab.

physics in the lab too - and we got released FIVE MINUTES EARLY and thus were the first class to arrive for assembly [which was quite zzz]. well actually it was cos the van de graaff thing didn't work. but whatever.

german was quite fun.


and SEMEN NO I WAS NOT FLIRTING WITH THAT SWISS WOMAN AT THE FRENCH FAIR.


ugh I need sleep.

edit: don't know if this sounds emo or not. but well just realised that I'm very good at hiding my feelings - or at least those that I want to be hidden. but then again well sometimes I get this feeling that I can't keep them hidden for much longer. ok this is definitely emo but whatever. not like anyone will see this anyway.

23 March 2009

320!

is a nice number.

but hooray I've finished my chem ARTICLE REVIEW.

and seriously jeremy planning only works if the thing is due like the very next day AND it can't get extended any further.

then I'll be forced to do my work.

like how I've just finished the article review.

and I guess that's why I never do HCL.

hmm today CLE was HILARIOUS.
[especially with rascal acting as a durian seller]

and seriously I don't mind EC teaching CLE but math? no way.

and my horrible 50-odd premise argument diagram ended up with a 19/20.


yay.

just proves that the more you smoke the more marks you get [especially for SS/geo]

and well english was fun.
hcl was boring/confusing.

and NY PURPOSELY called on me to read something when I had an oreo in my mouth. so well I read so badly that after the first line she got someone else to continue.

yay.

and geo was zzz.
now that's about all that happened today.

and I know I'm very disjointed and all that but that's just due to the lack of sleep.

but then again I could have finished the article review much earlier if I didn't go blogsurfing at about 2130. and googling random stuff.


zzz.
math TA tomorrow:

as long as there's no graph sketching I don't care.
and no factor formula!
the rest of trigo SHOULD be easy enough. =D

and actually I like proving.

SS on wed. smoke!
geog on thus... smoke even more I guess


now what I've left to do: well tomorrow night I've GOT to start work on my social speech.

and if I procrastinate less then I'll go do um wazzat.
either my geo essay or chaos.

or I might just go on BBO. or MSN.

ha.


oh and a quote. "HML Library".

ugh.

just had the weirdest day ever.













and on a side note in the end I still didn't manage to get that chem article review done.

22 March 2009

¾-dead [at least]

bleh I'm SUPPOSED to be doing my stupid chem article.

but then again I was supposed to be doing it ever since 11am.
ugh.

I guess that'll be the only piece of holiday homework that I'll actually DO during the holidays.

HOTA [zuowen] can go die.
and I don't want to start geog NOW.

bleh.
stupid holidays.

let's see
mon/tues camp
wed slept late and well slacked/prepared for piano exam
thurs piano exam [FAIL] and then school for geo-ad until about 5/6pm
fri deserves a whole paragraph by itself

WOKE UP AT 0545 [stupid alarm clock which was supposed to ring at 0445 but after I hit snooze it only rang 1hr later], managed to get to chinatown at 0640. so anyway after filming we got back to RI at 1100, left school at 1850 [!!!], got to church and got home at 2300. then went on msn and discovered that I had to be at school again the next morning.

ugh.

sat
woke up at about 0645, got to school at 0730 and stayed there until about 1720. then rushed off for a piano LESSON which was damn boring cos [in case you haven't realised] my exam was just over and I REFUSE to do grade 6 theory so I purposely lost the book.

then got home at about 2045.

and woke up at 11am today!
so after/if I finish chem I'll go do that bloody trigo assignment.

and then maybe sleep.

19 March 2009

317

ok haven't posted in quite a while [I think].

camp was bloody slack. and well NCC had mahjong while we were only dotaing. However the rest of the RC people DID order mcdelivery at 1am and well I koped a lot of fries.

yes I know my posts are totally fragmented. but whatever. and my typing is screwing up.

cos I SQUISHED my specs by placing them in between a book. so I bent them back into shape but now they feel damn weird. and I'm tired.

so anyway camp was THE slackest/shortest camp ever. however on day2 we, or rather I, got pwned by RS [and her IMPECCABLE logic - to quote her "with you in charge it's not surprising that this thing happened" - which should be cum hoc IIRC] during a certain wargame cos one of my cadets broke one of those big green pots near the atrium. so let's just say that she totally hates me now. but then the cadets liked the camp so yeah.

got home, slept, woke up, ate dinner, and slept again.

then practised piano and well slacked about.

piano exam today was EPIC FAIL. I screwed up my first 2 pieces [which weren't supposed to screw up/which were supposedly my better ones] and then SOMEHOW I didn't mess up the 3rd one. however I WAS bloody nervous. so like my scales DIED [I managed to turn Eflat major to E major on the way DOWN. and my contrary motion became 3 octaves instead of 2. and for another scale I went 5 octaves ascending and 4 octaves descending]. AURAL was horrible [as expected], and so was sight-reading.

expecting to fail. and since this is the LAST exam [registration for sept closed already] I have to RE-LEARN all my pieces with the 2009/2010 syllabus. damn.


well I could scrape a 100 but that's highly unlikely [especially since I scraped 102 for grade 5 which was IMHO a LOT better than this one].

zzz so after that went to school for geoAd.

and HOORAY I have to wake up at 5am tomorrow to go down to Chinatown for FILMING. ugh.
