my chinese tutorial is changed to wednesday. GREAT. now i have thursday free.
and today was the class leader investiture. frankly, i thought that it was an awesome job done. on terms of response and support from the crowd, it definitely very very good. the presentation was nice too. meaningful. i wonder if it would be the same level of professionalism when it's time for the student council investiture.
and, to my amusement, there was this survey today. on the recent putting up of students' results. we were to give our feedback on the four reasons presented. of course there were some "agrees" with the good points of what was done.
duh. typical answers coming from people who has always been so high up there so much so that the air of apparent superiority has made them big-headed. "clever" people. sheesh.
soooooo let's see. so far so good on academics. but still have to work harder and harder still. got told off by miss tay today. whole class didn't take prac seriously. good wake-up call. then left with biology. MICROBIOLOGY. don't you just love viruses, bacteria and such?
ok i know you don't.
well, that's all for this post. i'm off to STUDY.

i've decided to pursue my dreams with even more strength.
today, the school decided to do an EXTREMELY stupid thing: publicise the results (L1R5, average, individual subject marks and some other rubbish) by printing them on A4 sie paper and pinning them on green boards and situating them outside the AVT.
go. to. hell.
it might be no big deal to peoples whose results are good/very good/ damn good/unnatural, BUT, can't they at least spare a thought fot those that are not as academically-inclined? i mean, how would one feel when the names all around you are having 90+ average while yours is below 50?
"so you all can see how others are doing" do you think i give a shit about what register number 32 from class 4B is scoring? if i did, i could JUST ASK. i have a mouth you know. dumbass boon.
"spur you all on to study harder" dude, i have 19 for my l1r5. my classmates have l1r5 of 15 and below. you think I AM NOT SPURRED ENOUGH? can't they just use their brains for once to think about how we students are feeling about the totally idiotic decisions they are making?
i'm not satisfied with mr yow's four reasons. and i don't think the academically-weaker students deserve this kind of humiliation. if you want to help them, this is definitely not the way. we can spur ourselves on than you, we don't need you all.
if we can't, then we're damned.
one last thing: i swear that i will beat you. academically. that's my purpose from now on. HA

it's been raining for the past few days. great weather.
"summary of our lives: study, work, die" as said by khoo. come to think of it, quite true. but there are many infinite branches from each of the study-work-die. including fun, happiness, sadness etc.
well, the tests have finally ended for this week. break. but today's chem was screwed up. did it quite "well" then turned out that were quite a few mistakes. ohwell, what's done is done. wanted to catch v for vendetta after school, but decided against it because it's troublesome.
right now there isn't much for us to do except study hard for our o's. no doubt about it. rather sad. because we're now unable to do what we want to. we can't be free, we can't mess around in school, we can't do this, we can't do that. we can't hate, we can't love, we can't go for cca if our studies sucks. we can't do no shit.
chained by this need to study. to do well academically. but it is inevitable, that we go through this stage. but it's up to the individual to decide his or her fate. study hard, good results, good future. don't study hard, not good results, ruined future. (not true for all cases though)
tsk.

some people at the next void deck are holding their wedding. so they have to scream some songs into the mikes and break the tranquility of the neighbourhood. send my thanks to the bride and groom. o.O
(damn here they go again...the last feedback from the mike lasted 10seconds+)
oh let's see, left with the fei ying zuo wen. shall not do it until i get the drive to write the three pages+ essay. opg said that we must have inspiration when wrting these kind of stuff. too bad, mine's not here yet.
when school reaopens, it's ss common test. about healthcare and people giving birth. i guess there's too much to read in detail. so i'll just cover the main points. chem endo/exo + air/water on tuesday, shall touch that tonight. and MAYBE a chinese test on the same day with yan yu. the fun. well, if there really is, i'll just have to study on monday.
i guess i'll go and study. studystudystudy. tsk, this sucks.

my previous post has such a short life span. tsk.
well, day three already. in the blink of an eye. mcr blasting through the solo speaker by by table side. i'll cherish this short break i've managed to scrape.
good news. my bio test is postponed to week two. but i still have the two chapters to study anyway. fettered by maths chinese and biology. BUT, it ends tonight. must keep to my plan.
wonder how rong xuan and his comm are doing now in school. part-c bonding camp. well it sure brings back memories. but mine was more tiring. immediately after orienteering, and with almost the same workload. but fun nonetheless. don't know about rx's, shall drop by tomorrow to observe him. then head down to plaza sing for the exam.
THE EXAM. i swear those pieces are killing me.
but after that, it's free time to sunday. free for me to slot in filing and revision and some-thing-whatever. i read in creative boredom that "ahs students are complaining about the work" (something like that). duh. look at our holidays.
damn i'm not going to talk about what everybody is talking about. workworkworkWORK. some life huh? it's taken away my, i don't know, want? to enjoy myself like go out and slack around some place where i like. well, sometimes we just have to adopt the heck care attitude. this way we can preserve our sanity in this chaotic world.
gaah. my free time shares the same fate as my previous post. c-i-a-o

day two of the march holidays.
spent yesterday at ubin. the previous night, sunday night, was also spent in school. went to school in the evening after lessons and then down to 85 to meet part-d. for orienteering in case you all don't know. so the rest was brief, brief, catching toads, read, talk about ghost, mac at 2am+. i slept and woke from 11pm+ to 2am+. then had supper at 2am+. -.- and slep for a measly 2hours before waking at 4:30am to go to ubin. wth.
we couldn't even see anything in ubin when we got there. the sea was just pitch.
so did the things we had to do then went to check the checkpoints. total for the whole day is about (two-digit number here) rounds around ubin. advice: never ever go down slopes without applying brakes unless you want to eat mud or unless you are a pro at cycling.
during the real orienteering, lester farmer and i got so sick of cycling. our butts hurt like hell and we couldn't stay awake cycling so we pushed our bikes up every upslope then slept at a hut near mamam beach with one person for guard duty. shiok.
overall, well done orienteering comm.
then today. did 1.5/12 of my homework more and it's still increasing. looks like i could not finish it during the weekends. duh. i kee watching naruto and eating whatever can be eaten and reading. of ocurse it's impossible.
but now almost half is done. just have to do more and complete the whole damn thing. 16march. guitar exam. my teacher said no one would fail with my class standards. just a matter of merit or distinction. first, i have a knack for merit whenever there's a merit/distinction choice. second, you never know.
heck. practice makes perfect.

well. i got crap for my l1r5. so that means i have to study real hard from now on.
yesterday was the last day of the term. time really flies very fast. just a few months ago was school reopening and now it's closing already. very soon it would be mid-year then o-levels and before you know it, jc. fast. real fast.
that's why we have to make full use of whatever time we have now, to do whatever things we want to do. and not let that time go to waste.
like now. i have tonnes of holiday hw to do. and i plan to finish it by the weekends.
ciao.

a post before electrolysis. second last day of school and still a test. "quiz" rather. tsk.
today was a super eventful day. first was the form teacher intraction time which saw the class bickering. as usual. about the arrangement of tables. and who sits with who and whatsoever. didn't know the details much as i was neutral and lazing around.
couldn't care less.
winston chai's lesson had no happy ending. AGAIN. AS USUAL. he has to start every lesson poking sarcasm at somebody or something. then run, "test" and no more chai. the last 20+ minutes was spent lying down under the tree and looking at the clouds. that's the best. with the wind and shade and everything. that's the life.
ok this is the main course of the day. it happened before winston chai anyway. this is the opg segment. first of all, no offence to any sports people. it's the black sheep amongst you all that dirties your image. i don't mean the rest of you any harm.
so _____ was in her orange bball shorts, apparently not allowed as it was not school attire. opg saw it and she exploded. scold scold scold and in the end, the councillors, INCLUDING ME (wth), got scolded as well for not "making _____ not wear orange bball shorts."
like, what the heck can we do? but it's not opg's problem. it's the person's problem. i mean, why do YOU ALL have to have these "privileges" whereby you all can stroll around the school, uniforms untucked; wear your "designer" bball shorts; eat/drink/sleep in class; cut queue and do what ever you want? is it just because you win competitons for our school? is it because you bring in the most direct victories to our school?
even if you all do, you all are still students of this school. this burden of yours does not mean that you all can get extra/special privileges. i think that the main problem lies in YOU PEOPLE. do you all have to go against every single damn rule thrown at you? is this "cool" or something? or does this just makes you special?
tsk. seriously, i think you people should go wake up.
so that's all. heh. after school some founder's day concert meeting. watched the stomp video. those guys are damn pro. then went for orienteering meeting.
ohwell. have to study my chem now. i don't want to fail.
ciao.

the day started off with me not being able to swallow anything for a few minutes. before i finally drank some water and my oesophagus reluctantly relaxed. now it's trying to choke me again.
went for fun but didn't run, because if i did i might just collapse and die on the track. don't want to take the risk. so i ended up looking after the bags.
actually i don't want to blog so often, but somethings bugging me, so i'll just blog about it. to the point.
i've not felt this way for a long time already. probably because everythings bottled up inside like the Kyuubi and it's finally breaking loose. and if you watch naruto you would know that if it is released, all hell breaks loose. there's nine tails in all, and i'm perhaps at the fifth.
thei get really pissed off when people say thing that are not true. be it about people i know, things i know, my juniors, my friends and especially about me. usually i close an eye, because it does me no harm. but when things that are sensitive is said, that might affect me, or what i want to do, then i might just lose it. just a word of precaution, don't push me to my limit, because if you do, it won't be just you suffering the consequences.
next. i really really really need to get a grip on myself. i guess it's true afterall, it's not easy to balance. but i'm not willing to be extreme either. it's all in the head. and i'm giving myself a chance to try and balance. i'm doing fine with it now, but this state os not good enough. not good enough for me to become who i want to be.
occasionalwell. life has it's ups and downs. that's what makes it enjoyable. i'll pull through this.
everybody can pull through this.

popping panadol like jelly-beans. hooray i'm sick. must be the sun on monday. tsk, but better now, because panadol is very effective.
let's see. ok i admit, today was the first time i slept in class. not doze off or anything but is put-head-on-table-and-really-sleep kind of sleep. because my fever was raging like mad, and choo was droning on and on. so i slept.
then due to the alteration and jumbling of periods, we had no second recess but were released earlier, which makes no difference as my tutorial still starts at 2:45pm.
chinese summary by peng zhi. he spent 3/4 of the lesson talking about summarising.
later rushed to the council agm. ok not rushed, more like limped/walked/strolled. they were in the tower hall balcony, as the bottom was used by wushu. -.- talk talk talk by president sok shin and more talk by vp chin meng. well, the highlight was more of the post-selection. just one thing to all post-hopefuls:
up to you all. if you feel that you all can make it, then by all means, go for it.
heh. sm's are the backbone of council. LOL. ok, for those that aspire to be sm, which i don't think there's many, sm's appear to be slack. and they are. but not VERY slack, because we sometimes act as advisors to the comm heads and vice-comm heads. so that's about all.
well, i found out that balancing is better. once you are done with somethings, then you can allow yourself to take a break. taking breaks are important. so do take breaks, because they give you an opportunity to rest for a while before continuing with your work.
so now i'm going to continue with my work.
