chinese ao release of chinese AO results tml. need i say more? Friday, February 24, 2006 @ 9:45 PM
i need a break i need a break from everything. school, social circles, hwk, tests, even slacking. i'm spending more time doing things that i've no idea why i am doing so than on other committments which at least has a more meaningful purpose. i mean, the hectic of it all is getting to me, though i keep it behind my facade in school. mr tee was bringing up about whether i was from a rich family lately. his basis for deduction? that i behaved like a towkay. (actually, i thought he said towgay, that beansprout thing. ok, way off tangent) well, apparently, in his eyes, i walked like as if i have nothing to worry about, so calm and all. it was suppose to be the way i walk, or sit during lectures and tutorials. he even asked if i knew that i needed to work. then again, this isnt exactly the first time i've heard this. well, many others in sec sch have put it less explicitly, that i've got that i-dont-give-a-damn-abt-what-goes-on-around-me aura. i've got to agree with that to a certain extent. i'm starting to feel less agitated and nerve-wrecked about issues, impending or not. i have this belieft that all will work out in the end, though solely living by such a motto will only get you in trouble if you dont learn to maintain sanity too. many like the front seat. i just take the backseat and enjoy the ride.

i'm in need of a phy tys. anyone has one to spare? @ 3:32 PM
it's 3.30pm and i've yet to study for my phy test. i'm not getting complacent mind you. it's just that i'm not motivated to study for it. 'you only get to live as an 18 year old once.' - shui qi so true, so why should i waste it away on my tests and tutorials? is that all there is to jc? tutorials and lame assembly skits? damn it, the skits ARE really getting to me. it's bad enough that i need to copy tutorials asap, and there i am wasting my time away listening to a bunch of retards exposing their intellectual flaws. on an absolutely different tangent, life is indeed fragile. we only realise the value of others when we lose them, physically or emotionally. life is not without its aspect of irony. @ 5:17 AM
it's coming to 5.30 am and i'm blogging before starting on all my assignments. B. double Bs as a matter of fact, for my chem and phy test, which both teachers had so effortlessly pointed out that i could have done better. well, maybe for physics, but chem is a no-no. honestly, a B is like my peak grade, As are for those who totally own their concepts and tutorials, a criteria which i'll never be able to fill simultaneously. still, i appreciate the fact that rahman had the decency to write 'well done. keep it up' on my test paper. that alone was enough to convince me to make chem my top priority. u see, in the past, chem assignments would be my last priority, such than in the end i'd have no time left to finish anything. it's a vicious cycle kind of thing, i'll get reprimanded by rahman himself, and be discouraged to finish up the tutorials. but now, i thought it'd only be respectful if i did 'em first, and leave kll for last (no particular reason). another chem lect test of all orgnaic coming up? freak. the sea of lect tests is endless in proportions.

a day of many firsts.. indeed, today was a day of many firsts. the day started off as usual, nothing much. okay, so maybe assembly ended on a low note, when a couple of j1s were trying their best to sensationalise the new perkcafe offering at ONLY $4. trying hard they did, and i wasnt the ONLY one taken aback by the pricey new flavour by our own cafe. so maybe it was much better than the past few days' attempt to bring up the hype of REACH (with singing? right.), still...fake, they were terribly. PE followed, and it was TEE's lesson before the recess. arz, was stoning during his period apparently, physical strains seem to have an accumulative effect on your mental strength. thus, sadly, truly, i just stone and faked abit when TEE strolled by. spent the next period copying up my phy tut, which TEH jingwei ensured i had a tough time with his atrocious handwriting. anyway, in chem period, i found out that i got a B. this, if memory serves me correct, is the first B i've gotten this year. to further strike you with awe, i never did score a B (or A of course) for any lect test in the 2nd semester of last year too. hence, this was a cause for my much-awaited jubilation. a B may not seem much to some, like TEE lin seng who was still in consistent form for the test, but i'm just really glad. it's...encouraging. anwyay, the 2nd first was nothing significant, other than the fact that i was laughing my way through chinese period. yes, for those who are unaware, i'm still taking chinese lessons as a result of my reults from promos. but i kinda enjoyed the lesson though, maybe that's another first for me. a day of many firsts.

school report 23490578 7 chps of organic chem? honestly i'd rather read like 10 chps of chinese, at least i know it's alright if i screw the test up, since it has become a formality for me as a student. but when you have dr rahman breathing down your neck, the only alphabets you need to know are 'A', 'B' & 'C'. the rest are invalid, as decreed by the rahman man himself. chem is not like phy at all. in phy, you have the luxury of using one formula for many chps, and at most you'll need to take note of your units. chem, freakin' however, you'll have to memorise chunk loads of reactions just for one type of organic compound. carbonyl compounds for eg, you have fehling's soln for aliphatic aldehydes and tollen's reagent for aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. what abt that iodoform's test that keeps appearing in my phenols and carbonyl notes? why couldnt some real freakin' smart arse spend his days in his cosy research lab and come up with this ONE soln/reagent that tests for ALL organic compounds. the ULTIMATE soln. yes, i can just imagine it. just add the soln to your organic compound and analyze it just by seeing the colour of ppt produced. heck, it might even work in all sort of conditions, need not for what 'cold, 10-20 degrees' or 'heat and distill'. but i guess they wanted a distinct difference between chem and phy. yea, i can see the difference alright, in my grades that is. the disparity is more than distinct, it's worlds apart. on a different tangent, valentine's day is around the corner. i was reminded not by all the tv ads coming up or special v'day offers at XXX shop. (when i say XXX, it's not what you're thinking of. then again, it's only reasonable that XXX shops do have v'day offers too.) rather, it's my bro's secret v'day plan. yes, he's been plotting to get a gift for his classmate on this occassion since that one SK ad in the newspapers caught his attention. i havent got the details, but he's been resorting to packing food to school in order to save up, and it's been like a month already. damn, he makes me seem so insignificant. i have half the mind to get myself a box of chocs from ntuc on v'day itself on my way home, to keep whatever is left of my ego intact before my bro's SK gift takes it all away. hopefully my ego doesnt grow bigger than my budget.
