english as an A level subject?

i had a talk with mdm norhani today, and i was wondering if i'm actually competent enough to study english as an A level subject. it's literature really, but they call it english. funny.. anyway i became nervous when i heard that the students actually do ONE book a WEEK. i mean like, well! i guess i can read a book in a week and complete all my notes lar, but that's if i do ONLY literature? what about my other subjects? my brain will just go haywire and i'll get myopia or something. argh! and i don't like the idea of studying shakespeare... it's in old english for goodness sake.. all those thee thou art etc. "

"o romeo romeo wherefore art thou romeo? deny thy father, and refuse they name; or, if thou wilt not, be but sworm my love, and i'll no longer be a capulet"

or is it catapult? nvm

anyway, mrs. koh's explanation went something like that.

"why are you romeo?" (note: it's not where are you romeo)
and the deny part onwards is basically how juliet wants romeo to disown his family. she herself will give up her own name just to be with him. some love tragedy thing but my point is, it's so complicating!

"it is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden; Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be. Ere one can say it lightens. sweet, goodnight! This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath, may prove a beauteous flower when next we meet"

and what about the stanza above? these are the only two quotes i actually memorised from the book. i hardly understand a word they're saying... but i seem to be more of an artsy person than sciency leh... anyone knows ANYTHING about the english course? fwah... should i even take it? i don't think i'm up for anything to do with science and math!

heelp!!

s'pore's rainy season

sigh... this is horrible season of the year... the Os are ever so near, and it's so cold! everyone's getting sick. it starts with the sore throat, the dry cough, and then the fever comes up, and of course right after that it's the running nose. used up like how many boxes of tissue paper already... sound nasal... haha husky... like that dog "husky"... nvm, out of point.

anyway i'm actually sending out a mail to my physics teacher now to request for some physics consultation since he kindly ignored my second sms. he's not free on sat... so i asked for monday but i guess he's real busy at home. ah well, he said he checks his mail everyday so i hope he tells me soon so i may plan my schedule. i want to control my schedule, and not to be controlled by events instead. cool eh? i woke up one morning and realised that i'm quite philosphical. =)

okay i'm off to do some major muggeration (pris's vocab) now. tmr's the combine practical so all the best to everyone taking it! after tmr it's over yeah so tahan for a few more hours! =) i'm free tmr so i decided since i drank so much tea for dinner, (it was so diluted right elisa? practically like H2O, no tea at all. btw, if it's diluted, it will take a slower time to react right? so the speed of reaction is slower. ha! chemistry... see? i'm learning! ) so yup, as tea works wonders for me, i just can't sleep with tea in my head, thus i shall study like a studatic, a lunatic basically. sigh okay see ya =)

hmmm...

my class! =)

12th october

okay i've been having enrichment lessons from 7am-9pm. physics was a blast today! learnt lots of things, haha, and had loads of fun in the HOD room.

angel: 4-D eh? hope we stirke! haha... sigh, too bad the probability is so low. haha...

amos: square centimetres? cubis metres? squares of cubes? cuboids of squared sqaure cuboids? haha had a great laugh in there eh?

anyway, it's just too bad i can't eleborate on it cause i may unintentionally "flame"or slam teachers. i doubt i would, but a precaution nonetheless due to the news about blogs and teachers right? but it was fun, really... realised that teachers can loosen up a lot, but we have to be careful not to cross the line too. =)

sigh, anyway i realised something. the many student couples we see around... they're so happy sometimes right? but you can see the pain and quarrels theu go through too... it's sad sometimes, but somehow things always turn out okay right? so never fear, God is here! did my QT today and prayed for the O levels. hee anyway i had better go to bed now. tomorrow's my graduation ceremony! haha night people! =)

busy busy bumble bee!

as the title obviously shows, tomorrow is gonna be a real busy day! oh gosh i think i'm goign into la la land the minute i reach home. i'll be spending mroe time in school than at home tomorrow! sigh i fell tired already! haha

i'm supposed to be in school by 7.15, attend assembly, and have class at 7.45AM! mind you ti's not school, it's an enrichment lesson with mr rashidi and mates. the small problem is angel and i don't really have questions to ask him, so well, we'll just sit in and listen to the rest! =) perhaps we could learn something too! =) oh after that, it's lunch time! hee angel adn i are gonna have a NICE lunch. after how many months we're actually goign to sit down and eat! we don't have to stuff our faces and rush up the stairs with bags hammering at our hands and legs, or bang into walls, tripping over shoes laces and stuff like we used to during school hours! haha quite excited actually... funny eh... well after that's physics with mr yap. we're gonna ask him a few questions... okay so it's A LOT of questions, but we're probably complete a few only cause our physics ain't too strong. actually our sciences are horrible but ah nvm. i'm more of an artistic person. yeah right... okay i'm more of an arts person. the kind who dreams and writes and ya da ya da na da... yeah that kind. okay my physics ends at 2pm, then angel and i are off yet again to literature lesson! this time mr rashidi's gonna go through unseen poetry! haha i'm never quite good with that but somehow i always land up choosing poems over prose even though i hate poems. maybe i'm weird. ah yes, lit ends at 5pm, and finally i get to go home! HOME! back to my mummy and daddy and spider named charlotte (inspiration from jolene's literature text - charlotte's web)! haha, okay, so i caught this spider and am rearing it. (nothing to do with dengue fever okay?) exciting isn't it? i have a pet again! though not a mammel, but a pet nonetheless =) oh anyway, i'm going to meet elisa for dinner! haha yay! now's my turn to feel so loved. i get to spend some time with angel, then elisa! haha, i was deprived of my love for quite a few months. you see, for our csf thing, no one loved louie! yvonne and zhi yin didn't call me for about 4 months straight! (it's recorded in my notebook heh) so anyway, i'm getting my love back! haha nah, i'm being my nonsense self again. ah yes, the reason i'm meeting elisa is so that i cna accompany her in school since mr ng requested for her to help out with the night classes thing. ahha might as well right, then i get to ask her questions too if i'm unsure, which would be most of the time. (LOISA! where's your confidence man!) we end at 9pm. long day huh. i would have spent at least 12 hours in school in one whole day after tomorrow! world record, falling short of camps in school! haha

okay okay, i had better pack up everything and start studying now... bye people! =)

prelim results

mrs. koh came back to school yesterday! haha, kinda nice. missed her when there was a change of teachers. mr. wee was scary today. asked me about my total score or points. sigh... below 20? i wish... anyway on to my results. great!! i improved for my humanities! =) and ONLY my humanities mind you. sigh, my pride and joy is only in my humanities. but i'm still not happy! i felt i did really well for my lit, but my dear ss again, my SS hai yo! want to slaughter myself. brought me down to a B, and missing a mark to A can!!! ahhhhhhhhhh well my sciences are like flop. bleh. i'm going to SOMEHOW pull them up. i believe i still can do it. i have to. now math... hmmm.. i think i can do it too. i'm banking on my math too. didn't do TOO badly but not up to my expectations. chinese... improved a LITTLE, like 2 marks? but i'm afraid if i do too much chinese, my english will go down. it's gone down this time, and i scared myself. i got a darn b can. not happy. cause english is one of the few subjects which can hopefully cover up for my dear chinese and sciences which at the moment, are atrscious. at the moment only. =) okay, i've decided. no more computers for me. it's bad. it doesn't really help blogging anyway. didn't improve my english did it? maybe cause i didn't try to speak good english out here but ai yar. anyway seriously, it doesn't help anything. so... if anyone had anything to important to say, pls don't feel free to call or email. but do feel free to tell me in my face cause that's the only way to get anything through me now i guess. my mom and dad seemed pretty okay with my results, they said i have to pull up my sciences but good job for my Bs.. at least not Cs or something. but then, i made one grave mistake. that was calling sam to tell her that our mission trip but the day after our supposed prom night so i might not go. then wah, my dad's face turned a black precipitate colour. wah he wasn't happy anymore. i was actually preparing to finish up a math paper i did yesterday but fell asleep. but now he doesn't seem to be happy with my doing of math. he wants me to do science. but the problem is, i do math in the night. and i do science in the afternoon. somehow it works better but okay. i'll try to turn things the other way around to make him happy. like i said, no mroe computers, no more phone calls that last over a minute, if i can even pick them up. oh ya, and i'll try not to touch my handphone too. shall keep it off for as long as possible so my hands will not be itchy when i receive a call or sms. sigh, i feel like kingshaw. trapped. but that's the way it is. come on, ti's one mroe month to O levels only. can make it! ONE MONTH! can't wait. okay this shall be the end of louie's happy life. good bye... sniff... okay being dramatic yet again.....................i'm depressed, stressed, supressed, opressed, whatever press.. press starts sigh. okay off to my study table. c ya =)

ps. happy birthday yesterday germaine! =)

1st October

happy children's day! haha, okay funny way to start but heh... it's just too bad youths don't get a holiday too and it's REALLY abd that instead, the Os are COMING!!!!! haha like angel said, "bang wall also no difference", or for my case, tearing tissue paper. =D sigh... the rest of the school's finals are on monday, sigh all the best yeah? it's jsut as stressful here haha as i'll be getting back THE RESULTS. AHHHHHHHHH...... panic attack here! haha, realised something. i tend to put "haha" for the sake of it. doesn't it make one feel better, it's as if you're telling yourself "no worries, God is behind you... HAHAHAHA!" does that make sense?

anyway began to feel really lonely after i hung up with angel. it was such a surprise. we've all been... isolated... after the exams. all our papers are different (bio, a math, chinese, chem, physics) sigh... was at home studying while mum was out (dad was overseas), when angel called!!! haha she was at the interchange or something. of course we just had to go crazy. haha psst, read her blog! i just love her latest post, erm basically cause it's GREEN. haha... thank you angel! =)

oh ya, i went for the miracle service today with my mum! it was an annointing session. =) they put oil on our foreheads, and blessed us. prayed against dengue fever and all. after they blessed me, i was supposed to say "i receive, in Jesus' name, AMEN." that's for the youths lar, but for the adults, it's "i receive, and my family too, in Jesus' name, AMEN" of course, i had to fumble and consider myself as an adult when i said the wrong one, but does it mater anyway? ahha good thing i said the family part too, cause daddy wasn't there as he had just arrived from a business trip and was very tired, and mummy said the youth's one. she forgot to say family! haha, so i said it. good eh? my whole family's annointed! =) that would spread around to everyone else too right? cause we're all one big family! =) sigh, tmr raq's sister has a birthday party so she can't make it for service, adn julie's not going for it as it's her finals on monday, so maybe i'll either go with my neighbours which is funny as i have rarely, no, NEVER gone with them before... or i'll go for the morning service with mummy and daddy. yeah =)

one last thing, i had another dream last night! haha, for our GB annual camp this year, we went to Florida (disneyland). haha maybe ms gan would bring us there? 10th year mah, special! haha i guess i can continue dreaming eh? nvm it's a pleasant dream =)

ps: this hmm pink colour is dedicated to angel, who went through the trauma of putting up a green post for me! haha thanks... okay, so i've got one purple (amelia) and one pink (angel). erm kim, there's way too many blues in my blog! more than my green okay! haha study hard people!!
