going home

Sunday, June 24, 2007

Oh man it’s the last days of the holidays. I've made a promised that I’ll start studying for the prelim examinations from tomorrow onwards. There goes my short termed social life that I gained during the measly two week holidays.

2r3,05 BBQ was held last Friday the 22nd of June at put 24 which unfortunately happens to outrageously far from my house. Fortunately for the bicycle, we made it there somewhat on the dot. If not for fatigue, would have probably been early. How fast time flies. We're all graduating secondary 4 students now who will soon part ways with each other. The bonds that 2r3 shares are almost unthinkable in 4r2. Cliques are everywhere. In 2r3 there happens to be only one clique "the 2r3 one". Haha! Well we're widely regarded as "two rebellious three" given the outspoken nature of our class. To think that we even had the most councillors in our class is totally hilarious. Well all good things must come to an end and I guess being in "four righteous two" has its plus points as well.

Up next on the agenda is the dreadful holiday homework. Guessed I finished most of the work I’m actually aware off. Searched my file and found nothing that should be done undone. Well I guess my worst fears shall be revealed tomorrow when I meet all the people in school. How fast my holidays have ended. This has been my shortest June holidays for the whole of my mere 16 years on earth. In primary school, ever day practically used to be a holiday. In secondary school, school tended to be slightly more demanding given the vigorous schedule of our CCA and other enrichment programs. Well I guess I’ve made fairly good use of my holidays. Slacking at home, watching movies, and cycling.

Well I get a perfect pseudonym for me would be boring boy given my somewhat rural lifestyle.

LoLong over due post. Well tomorrow is the last day of our holidays. Well you might say it’s our official holiday begins but I beg to differ. With the amount of homework expected to be give, I seriously doubt that we're be able to actually enjoy our holidays. How ironic isn't it. Holidays are meant to be enjoyable. Prelims are coming really soon. 2 months plus. Maybe I’ll do some light revision during the examinations.

This week our class had a Photoshop workshop conducted by an external trainer. Relatively interesting as I gotto learn several things which I previously did not know. For example creating separate layers in a webpage design. Well I guess the next product I’ll be getting would probably be Photoshop cs3.

Finally I’ve gotten my Microsoft office 2007. The interface is really different when compared with the 2003 version. It somewhat has a fresher outlook. Hasn’t really time to explore fully.

PC Show was completely hectic the guy cheated us of 512 mb of ram. It was suppose to be 2GB but he only give us 1.5GB Maybe he really forgot or maybe he was trying to save some money for his company. Either ways it frustrating.

I've got nothing much to blog about. Simply put...my life is a boring one

Gosh all the DSA entry forms are coming out. I'm seriously considering which one to apply for. 18 JC man plus poly this year. It time i start thinking about what course i may like to pursue. It'll probably be related to enginerring juz seem to have a giz for it lar.

Today we went to sim lim square to buy our new gateway. The old one seem to be giving too much problem. Its dame pissing when the whole family nagging you to get the internet connection working. Bought the new wireless n gateway which is supposely suppose to have four times the range of the g series. Hopefully it'll slove the incumbent lack of reception which affects my dad'room.

lol i'm gonna start doing my homework now. Luckily, it happens to be rather fun. We're suppose to write something about everybody in the class. Call it peer reflection.

Why are some people such tight asses. Just can't seem to loosen their piehole. Nobody gonna listen to your words if u've acheive nothing man. Furthur more your tight ass is affected the class morale. Sorry for the word use.

Finally I’ve come to update this blog of my. Been feeling really nostalgic this wee.

Monday was our right of sending fourth in church. Haha I dunnoe whether it was suppose to be a happy or sad cause the "MC" for the day made it sound as though it was saddest day of our life. He was like "this is the last time you’re all going to attend catechism class together" all the time. Irritating. Well flashes of all the 4 years of confirmation class flashed thru my mind. Well I guess four years is indeed a long time together. The skit done by the catechist was totally hilarious. Slightly exaggerated though. Concert was totally screwed. Turned out to be more like a noise session. Balance of instruments was poor. I guess the only band that deserved credit was genesis for the renditions of songs.

Dead smack in the middle exams now. How I wish I could turn back the times and attempt all the questions I failed to conquer. Today is particular was amaths. Didn't noe how to do the binomial theorem question. Can't believe I practiced the exact same question the day before. Sometimes exam stress does kill. After amaths was geog. The schools going crazy making us do two paper intensive subjects. Calculated that I used at total of 16 pieces of foldscape this totals up to 32 pages (without line). My hand ligaments are seriously hurting.

This mid years couldn't have come at a better time. Developed food poisoning two days before the first day of "officially mid year exams" English isn't counted :).Luckily god will had planned that I would feel fully fine on the first day examinations. Hopefully it didn't affect my performance during the exams on the first. Screwed my first part of the ss structures. Wrote the first point out of point.(another reason for sam harris to believe that god does exist)

Off for physics mugging session.

This week has been total hell. Had 5 test altogether. Within a space of three days. Common. What is the school trying to teach us? Cramping all your activities together? Preparing for olevels? Total madness. I really do not believe in such ways of teachings students how to cope with their studies.

Today being the last day of Chinese New Year, my maternal family decided to hold a reunion dinner juz so as to foster close family bonding. We had the tossing of raw fish again just to make sure the good lucked stayed with us for the entire year. Personally, I hope the good luck would stay with my till the olevel examinations. However I believe that no amount of luck or divine intervention would help your achieve your desire results if you yourself do not put in enough effort.

Speaking about the upcoming olevels, I received my verification slip several days ago. Can't believe that I had to pay nearly $ 400 dollars just to take submit myself to 9 months of pure suffering. Totally ridiculous to me. Well life like that so live with it.

Our band sound is getting better and better with each practice. Finally I feel that gold is within our reach. 11 more practices to go before the SYF Central judging competition. Go for it guys.

Lastly I’ll be stepping down from the student council really soon. Maybe it’s a good thing maybe it’s a bad thing. I can't see myself having the freedom that I’ll supposedly be having after the SYF and council are out.

Well I guess in life, we human beings are bound to face up and downs and today was a mixture of both. Firstly I was overjoyed at the fact that I had the higher marks among the failures for the retest 19/20 to be precise. I'm at a lost at whether to feel proud of it. You get what I mean.

The sad incident of the day would have to be the public canning witness during the school's assembly program. Why must people resort to such mannerism just to settle a "minute" insult on another man's brain? Sometimes it’s just so weird to see people that I’ve know for many years during my primary school days change so much. I myself find it hard to believe that I’m the person I am today. Given that I was in the bottom third of the cohort in primary school. Few would have expected me to make it to the top Ngee Ann Primary Class 1R3. Fewer would have expected me to become the head of the student council. In conclusion fight for your wants. Who would have taught some one of my Calabria would have made it this far. I myself am shocked. I guess part of its must have been god will’s.

My dream of becoming a pilot is every becoming close. Fortunately, I happen to be taking subjects which are all related to the aeronautical industry. Physics and Geography are perhaps the most relevant of them all. It hard to explain how my passion for the skies developed. I guess it must have been the constant traveling during my childhood days that developed my passion for these engineering wonder.

I guess I’ve have to take my leave as failure to do so would only result in a less than awake person sitting for his major Social Studies Test tomorrow.

Goodbye people!
