Sayonara Singapore
Though its only 7 days away from this alliteration nation, I can't help but treat it like I'm leaving for a year. And one thing I would do is to write a final blog post. Yes, that would make it the first time I am posting twice in a week during the holidays! So, nothing much has happened since my last post except for
FLYFF!
Yes, I downloaded it unto my tablet, making it faster than my old old desktop. Its also 3x exp week, meaning CK and Fonny levelled up to level 15 uber fast, while I levelled up from 27 to 28 very fast too. Only problem is that I am going off and tehre is no time to play it. Ah well, only thing left to do is play one game of batttleships berfore I go off. not the guessing game, but rather the warcraft 3 map. I have nothing else to say, so cya and

3, 2, 1 Freedom
Well, this week has been rather busy. From Monday I've had something on, and up till today everything I've been involved in has been shorter and shorter. Monday was the crappy SANA course, SANA being the Singapore Anti-Narcotics-Association. It was full of volunteers that looked like they couldn't be older than 22. The female ones kept shouting at us for fun, only to turn to their friends and smile that they actually scolded us, treating us as pets. Of course, most of tehm were okay. It was quite stupid and a complete waste of time. Really.
Tuesday was better, with the civil defence course at yishun. There were five modules:
First aid (Wounds, bandaging, basic stuff)
We already learnt everything in sec 1, so it was quite pointless. Though I do admit that I forgot almost everything taught in sec 1. Same can be said for the second module on
CPR.
After this was the part on firefighting, just telling us what types of fires there are, the 3 elements of fire and how to extinguish different fires. Then the typical put out flame with fire extinguisher practical thing. Going back for our fourth "module", we watched a video on the different sirens and emergency procedures in Singapore. After which we took the test. 15 questions, 30 minutes. We all finished it in under 8, so they collected it early. the pass mark, however, was 13/15. Everyone in ACS passed though, so we could go off. But the dismissal was only after our fifth module, while they marked our test papers. this was to watch an episode of Phua Chu Kang. :) Yes, very slack.
Today was spent in choir, which was very very sian. After what felt like an hour i realsied only 5 minutes passed. Very very sian. zzz
Yeah, I'm going to Taiwan on Saturday with the person whose b'day was yesterday. So yeah,

Post!
Ok, I'm currently quite very grumpy that my post got deleted cos of the stupid windows shutdown or else thingy. So, now I have to say again that I haven't posted in a ridiculous amount of time, and that my days so far have been almost the same every week:
MONDAY
Wake up: 8.55 to waqtch amazing race at 9 :D
Free Time (WC3, GH WT!!!, Music, Kong, Facebook, TeeVee...) : Till Lunch
Lunch!: Eat
FT (Free Time) : Till Dinner
Dinner!: Eat
FT : Til Sleep
zzz
TUESDAY
Wake up: Extremely early
Choir: 8-12 D:
Lunch!: Eat
FT: Til Dinner (Watch Samantha Who?)
Dinner!: Eat
FT: Til Sleep
zzz
WEDNESDAY
Same as Tuesday, but without Samantha Who?
THURSDAY
Same as Monday, but waking up later without amazing race.
FRIDAY
Same as Thursday
So basically I'm a lazy stoner spending day after day in front of the computer. Of course, I've also been spending way to much time listening to music. Really thats all thats been happening. Of course, except for the awesomeness of the musketry course on Tuesday, of which an unglam photo of me already is on facebook.
I know I really should be posting on Company Camp 08, but I guess It's been some time and I'm never going to post about it. For the moment though, I can comment on how proud I am in my efforts of pulling my classmates away from dota and into other warcraft maps you almost never see in garena. Or maps like battleships they knew about but didn't know how to trade, for example. XD CK's post already sums up what happened yesterday. :)
So yeah, I've posted and I'm trying to be a new person ever since Company Camp, which though was rather slack was rather enriching and renewing. I've tried I guess, and I'm setting new benchmarks for myself to be like and stuff, but... For one I know next year I will not be surrounding Nat doing the Touch My Body thing again. Though you can watch the official music video on http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2516956961833524838. Very freaky, and it gies me the heedeebajeegees. Yes, very disturbing and painful to watch.
Also, a few shouts that
SMP APPLICATION APPROVED!!!!!!
AND I GOT GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WITH DRUMS!!!!!!!! AND MIKE!!!!!!!!!!! AND NEW STUFF ON GUITAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!
Thats about it. Lifes been boring, as usual.
Oh yeah, the obsession with 99 blocks has also caused me to feel disturbed.

The Holidays (Thus Far)
So, what's happened in the holidays thus far?
I've been bored, just like many others I know. The overwhelming fact that the December holidays are here just leaves you stunned, not knowing what to do, and overwhelmed. Yes, rejoicing may be a good thing but then you soon realise a time waster must be created to occupy your time. However, I decided to dwelve in the deep realms of contemplation, or to put it simply, to relflect on my year. (Nothing to do with Allister's presentation-- "Complex jargon----In essence, it means...")
I realised the things that could be improved on, and then I became emo. Until, of ocurse, I came up with the oh-so wonderful idea of installing warcraft on my tablet so I can play whenever I wan to.
Avery Again And Again
Everyone knows yew. Yes yew, I'm talking to you. (Couldn't help it) Whether its ftp, now famous through most IP/SBGE classes, or horrible puns. (Yew! Haha) Avery has always been picked out by others unfairly. Of course, made worse with his participation in the Chinese Karaoke competition organized by Law. So, surely something has to happen to me.
In classroom 2.13 as we play murderer..........
Everybody thorws their cards to the middle of the joined tables as the round ends. Adhika passes me a form - Yet another travel declaration form. Hastily writing down where I'm going to (Taiwan) and the dates (22th Nov - 30 Nov) I pass it to Ershad, sitting next to me.
Two rounds later, Avery asks me "Are you going on a tour?" "Yes" came the reply. Shoving the form in my hand, I saw it. He was going to the same country, with the same dates. As I asked him which travel agency he used, he replied "The one in Suntec". Breathing a sigh of relief, I continued playing as there were at least 5 agencies in Suntec with fairs there.
A few days later, he came up to me, saying he was going by Chan Brothers. To make a long story short,
I am spending 8 days in a foreign country with Avery's family, much time spent in the same coach bus on long rides around Taiwan. As our parents interact, they discover things about their children or the school that their sons did not want tehm to know, resulting in pure badness-bad-esque-badicity-whatever.
Dota-ing (A bit too much)
Of course by this time I had not much time left to play warcraft (not just dota) before I had to go for the wonderful
BB Company Camp :)
Which shall be rightfully honoured by a post on its own. After company camp, however, I started getting
Frustrated
Back from company camp, I realised taht my computer was damaged beyond repair by a virus. (Yes, less than a month after I reformatted) So, I had nothing to do about it but reformat again. Reformatting may be a refreshing experience once every long time, but this one just got me sian and frustrated. For example, I have not been bothered to do things like install Microsoft Office due to sheer laziness. This has cultivated by activity of
Dota-ing (A bit too much)
I've been spending much of the past few days in choir practice and playing dota. Theres not been much done, just hours spent listening to music and playing warcraft. For once, not on Bnet, finally appreciating fellow classmates appreciation of LAN shops, where there is no such thing as lag. (At least not in reasonably good LAN shops)
Resolution Making - Again!
Has BB Company Camp as a large part to play, and will not be covered here.

Jian is looking forward to a week's time.
I think.
That is, If I can wrangle myself out of choir practice. Of course, it was supposed to be a dreadful twice a week. Till stupid _ _ _ _ had to say "Why only twice? Have more lah!" (No, not suicidal, just year 6 and not having to come to choir.) The new president, inexperienced and new and new, took this into consideration and decided to have thrice weekly practices! For what? And event I cannot take part in. Genius? Of course. But the pesky bunch of choir teachers with their angry faces covering up a much worse truth inside, will almost definitely keep a poker face while Laughing Out Loud, Rolling On the Floor Laughing or simply be undergoing a period of extremely hilarity inside themselves as they explain "understandingly" of how I'll still have to sing the songs next year. Essentially, depriving/consuming/obliterating the little glimpse left of/swallowing/destroying/ holiday joy I were to have. Yeah right, like the sec 1s don't have to.
Of course, I see many others ponning CCAs commonly as it were something, common. However, they were nto stupid enough to join a CCA with others in the cohort such as "The Prefect" and "The Prefect" and such, which leads me to my next point:
I treat people too nicely. Its true I guess. Someone despised by the general population always ends up being treated by me better than anyone else. SO what happens? They think I'm their bestest westest best thing that happened to them on earth friend. So, of course, my next move would be t back away and make sure tehy don't come near me, resulting in them facing a state of dejection that I'm ignoring them totally. This has been proven true in _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (from 1.11) and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (from 1.9/2.9). Of course, this has been carried over from primary school.
Anyway, if you're wondering why I'm talking about my thoughts againa nd not about school, then I'm sorry to explain to you that there has been nothing in school to begin with. Except for:

Apocalypse Day?
Apocalypse day. Sure, it can be interpreted as a day where the smell of meat lingers in the air as the clouds are yellow, the day of Jesus' second coming or maybe, just maybe, the exam results being released tomorrow.
As teachers time ater time say, if you study hard, then you will do well and vice versa. The problem is, I hardly study hard. (Haha bad pun) (Some subjects I do study the day before, but mostly the recess before) Which means after the paper, the most I can ever know is how many questions I left out. Were the rest all correct? Dunno. Were most correct? Dunno. I may be extremely confident about a paper, but receive only a 50-60+ grade. Yet I might be very unsure and get the beloved 70. I never know until the moment that I know. Which keeps me in anticipation, maybe even a tinge of excitement lurking in me. Of course, this might not exactly be a good thing.
Now, no need to dwell into the events of the future. Today, I slacked. Really, thats about it. Sure, there are post-exam activities, but I mean, in the end, will I be that bo liao to remember that ketamine is also known as special K, kit kat, K, and so on so forth? Of course not! I'd be too busy trying to poke Brandy or contemplate the every single detail I notice. Which is not a very healthy habit of mine. Every single thing I see, every event, I start thinking about possible outcomes, the chances of each outcome happening, what the person is like, what others are thinking, or simply the what are the Senior Admin thinking game! Its especially fun to play when its about to rain, and you just KNOW that none of them are thinking about anything related to the devotions about to be shared. Of course, tehse moments are often short lived as the rain would start pouring from the sky, resulting in a chaos which results in everyone slowly strolling back to class, to realise the devotions on the PA system are almost completed.
The last days of school will continue to be pointless, hopeless, retarded, or just plain stupid. We don't want to be there because there's no point. The teachers don't either for the same reason. Yet they have to organize events to waste our and their time, for they have to. I guess thats one of the reasons why some people seem to not appear in class nowadays...
So, I realluy have not much to talk about, as not much has happened. Except for JOSEPH AND TEH AMAZING TECHNICOLOUR COAT! Go go go Joseph you know what they say! I've had the soundtrack for the movie oh so long and I finally got the chance to see it. Of course, go go go Joseph turned out to be the last line I heard before I fell to sleep. I may like the music, but I never expected teh movie to be just... that bad. It was close to Benny standard, just a lot more random. I guess it was made a long long time ago, where Pharoah's being horrible Elvis impersonators was a hot idea. I guess.

XD
Today was the end of a series of events I really looked forward to. The iconic event, of course of reformatting my tablet, which is the first time in a trilogy (yes, I do have an obsession with trilogies) of reformatting. Year 2, 4 and 6? May be not 6. Nonetheless, every 2 years it shall be done. XD
Also, I would like to declare that this blog will no longer be posted on everyday, rather posted whenever I see fit. *Transit**Completed*
So... This thursday we will be getting out results back, and next thursday will be the last day of school. Both I look forward to. Of course, the events filled in between will be complete with ranom goodness and badness. Extreme boredome overcomes us as we sleep, sit, stand and pretend Fonny is a pokemon. Yeah, that was quite fun.
CCA's are probably going to start soon, which is probably the only thing I do not look forward to. :(
Anyway, today has been spent rather eventfully. Since I reformatted my computer and couldn't find my wireless internet password since my brother wasn't home, I decided to play spore, which I did till he came back. After which you could find me having multiple downloads at a time with many installation wizards for all the software which I could not feel at home without. Now everything on my tablet is so free, fast, spacious and full of possibilities, hopes, dreams, aspirations, goals, aims, blah-dee-blah-dee-blah. What is true though, is that I have been anticipating this event for many months now, only to feel weird for tehre is no sense of satisfaction inside, just a feeling that my indiana-ish drawing was not backed-up. :(
Sure, some bad things have happened, including the fact that my head keeps filling up with love songs (probably hanged out with Rohan too much), which I must admit is quite disturbing.
Still, nothing can break the wonderful post-exam joy, except a chinese cultural camp. But surely that won't happen again, will it?Sure it can't, it simply cannot, I will not accept that as a chance, no, never.
Back to the present, our school day started with Facing the Giants (been there, done that...) with much plot spoilering to Rohan throughout teh movie. :) I also realised that after the vidoes we've watched in the past, (Benny- The difference between an adjective and an ADVERB!)its actually a very good movie. Then, teh two science teachers came in with great succession, both attempting to go through the answers for the exam papers, only to be persuaded by us that it was not worth it as none of us were listening, promptly chasing them out of class. Then came math (no show by our CT), then history, which was just a TKS, ending off with PC with Law. (no show by our CT)
Blogging, is, in essence keeping a diary. The oldest man alive says he keeps himself alive by keeping trackof his life and keeping his thinking going. He said that the key to longevity is to actually keep a diary. No, no ginseng, bird's nest, shark's fin, essence of chicken, soup or tonic water. Just keeping a diary. So I guess it is good for me to keep a diary. It doesn't matter if others read it, if no ones knows it, its the satisfaction of ones keeping track of ones life, even if there is no one to laugh at your witty humour. (haha, bad joke)

Also, I would like to declare that this blog will no longer be posted on everyday, rather posted whenever I see fit. *Transit**Completed*
So... This thursday we will be getting out results back, and next thursday will be the last day of school. Both I look forward to. Of course, the events filled in between will be complete with ranom goodness and badness. Extreme boredome overcomes us as we sleep, sit, stand and pretend Fonny is a pokemon. Yeah, that was quite fun.
CCA's are probably going to start soon, which is probably the only thing I do not look forward to. :(
Anyway, today has been spent rather eventfully. Since I reformatted my computer and couldn't find my wireless internet password since my brother wasn't home, I decided to play spore, which I did till he came back. After which you could find me having multiple downloads at a time with many installation wizards for all the software which I could not feel at home without. Now everything on my tablet is so free, fast, spacious and full of possibilities, hopes, dreams, aspirations, goals, aims, blah-dee-blah-dee-blah. What is true though, is that I have been anticipating this event for many months now, only to feel weird for tehre is no sense of satisfaction inside, just a feeling that my indiana-ish drawing was not backed-up. :(
Sure, some bad things have happened, including the fact that my head keeps filling up with love songs (probably hanged out with Rohan too much), which I must admit is quite disturbing.
Still, nothing can break the wonderful post-exam joy, except a chinese cultural camp. But surely that won't happen again, will it?Sure it can't, it simply cannot, I will not accept that as a chance, no, never.

Unofficially Over
Well, to me exams are unofficially over, with me left to describe everything which happened since friday.
Friday was the second day of exams, with the life science paper before the math paper. The life science paper carried on the happy spirit since thursday on the easy (-ness? -city? -esque?) of them. Then came the recess, which had little work done because there wasn't much to revise on. (Nothing much was taught anyway, right?) Then came paper 1, which i scraped through quite confidently as I could eventually answer all the questions. After that, the infamous notorious horrible dorrible terrible incorrigible paper 2, where even QYJ, Adhika etc. left out some, no matter how little. I left out one of the worst in class, with 13/50 marks for paper 2 left empty. Then again, there were worse than me and many left out 9-10 marks kinda thing. Looks like no one will be getting near to what they got last year if teh saving grace of moderation does not appear anytime soon. After going home I slacked the whole day away before going for cell. It seemed to be opposite day in cell, with Sec 1 guys actually outnumbering the Sec 2s (2 of us), and the MGS girls and such outnumbering the normally dominant RGS. It was fun though, with Ian Tatt taking over again, though if you're reading this blog you probably don't know who he is.
Then came saturday, speeding by faster than you can say "John Johnson". Nothing much happened, except for the hellish conditions during the history mock test, where there was no air con for the first part with a full lecture theatre, and Gavin ang didn't bother opening the doors so it was quite a while before it went back to normal. (ACS I may have air-con eevryone, which is good but bad because all the facilities were not created for ventilation. When the air con does not work or simply won't be switched on, conditions are rather intolerable.(They even screwed in all the windows so they can't be open. (Except for Andrew, who brings screwdrivers to school everyday. (Finally something good about him, eh?))))
Then came Sunday. I went out for lunch, and slacked asll the way till after dinner, when I realised it was too late to expect to study well enough for history. Therefore I launched something to salvage the time I had left, something of a bailout plan, which instead of being rejected was quickly agreed to by myself. My plan was to study as much as possible on both immigration and economic history, so that I can study only half of the items. On top of this, I would only study what I deemed important and if I couldn't finish I would continue during the 2h recess on today. I couldn't. On top of this, I soon was informed by bc that the recess was not 2h, but only 1h long as usual. This looked extremely bleak, buut i managed to coax myself into sleeping soundly. (Though already later than other normal exam days.)
As usual though, everything went well for the history paper, except for the hypothesis question, making we quite sure I will get at least 70, to get a whole year score of at least 70 for history. :) Chinese writing didn't go too badly either, though thats what I though last year and I got like 35% for it. The evil rating of the teacher marking your compo is very important I guess.
Right now, I'm waiting for dinner to start revising, as in my opinion there is not much to memorize for tomorrow's papers. Running very dry of ideas to rite about today, I have nothing to do but

The Best Day Ever?
Today was the best day of the month. Sure, exams schmexams, but still wonderful things happened. It all started when I woke up, and I didn't feel like dying. That was wonderful. For once I didn't feel like collapsing back on my bed the moment I woke up. However, for precautions sake, I still proceeded the buy a coffee from the canteen, which proved extremely useful as it woke me up further, keeping me awake throughout the LA Paper 1, without which I might have slept or felt too sleepy to continue.
The LA paper went perfectly, with me finishing with 15 minutes left to go. I decided to count the number of words (943, btw) and when I was done counting there was exactly 1 minute left to go. :D (I'm a slow counter, I know).
Off for a break, I spent half the time sitting underneath the bench BC, YJ, Natty, Fonny and Mr. White Indian were sitting on, eveen though there was a space for me. Because there were less distractions (almost all noise was buffered out by the legs of the above mentioned (kinda like what we learnt in geog, trees were used as buffers of sound though)) I managed to study extremely effectively, memorizing more than I did the day before.
Grabbing yet another coffee, (this time nescafe, stock just arrived; in the morning the lady said they didn't order it because it wasn't confirmed to be free of melamine) I met Ms. Jacqueline Yeow at the drink store. I guess it was a good omen, having the wish of luck from the teacher teaching you the subject for the paper you will be taking in 10 minutes time.
The invigilator for both papers were PE teachers. First, Mr. Lee? (can't remember, PCT of 1.12 last year) then Mr. Rasdeen. Mr Lee? (ditto) was replaced by Chee Hwai Mei and Mr. Rasdeen was replaced by Susseela (bang bang yudiyuno (sorry, sounds nice)) (or however you spell it). For those who do not know what Chee Hwai Mei is like, here is a glossary for terms she may use.
So there, the best day this month. (Sure, sure, its only been two days; doesn't change the fact that it was wonderful though.) Hope tomorrow is just as good, if not better! (Hope will keep us alive)

- KS (KS=Kia Su OR Kia Si) (both applicable, she used it to tell us to write index numbers on every page)
- between '|'
- therefore (the three dots thing)
- and many others, too numerous to recall.
So there, the best day this month. (Sure, sure, its only been two days; doesn't change the fact that it was wonderful though.) Hope tomorrow is just as good, if not better! (Hope will keep us alive)

What holiday?
Today is a public holiday. What holiday? You may ask. You ask those around you, they can't be bothered to take their eyes of their Geography textbook. Its that time of the year again. You look forward to holidays, yet holidays the day before exams are really an oxymoron. An oxymoron that deserve to be stoned to death. Something that makes you so frustrated that you just want to call it a gigantic chicken backside.
No doubt, even I have been studying rather intensely today, leaving only time left to eat and write this blog post. Yes, starting to study one week before the exams itself seemed a much better idea then. Not any more, it seems, with me to read through the whole geography textbook today, and memorize it at the same time. An hour seems so short to the years or months ahead, yet one extra hour of studying means a lot for studying for an exam paper. Nerds no longer seem like nerds, they just laugh at you because they didn't have to stay up till late just to be prepared for exams.
Theres nothing much to post today, except that the rest of Singapore who faces no sort of thing such as exams are filled with festive cheer with Hari Raya Puasa goodness. Lucky people. Of course the CPE (Chief Presiding Examiner) and PEs (one of whom thinks the CPE and other PE are very cocky people) thought nothing much of this holiday, except that it would give us more time to study. While everyone else in the family is celebrating, of course, with guitar hero being blasted from outside, with the amazing race being watched in the room, with my only study partner who isn't on MSN being music. Coffee or tea is no longer a drink, they are necessities if anyone were to mug without sleeping, or at least to keep ones eyes open. (Sure, sure, red bull helps too)
Now, I had better get back to studying, for impending doom tomorrow. With an appropriate impending doom timer for the atmosphere.

The Day After Tomorrow
The Day After Tomorrow. An unforgettable movie, no doubt, showing how a series of dastardly events leave us with a somewhat happy ending, but attached with a stern warning to start anew in order to have a bright future. Its uncanny how similar this probably is going to be like for my exams, starting the day after tomorrow. Talk about freaky.
Today yet another thing appeared in class which I knew about and was looking forward to, Marcus plays in class and then he spreads it to everyone else. It started with newgrounds then an untitled story then kongregate and now spore.
Anyway, exam preparations have been underway, mainly on geography and life sciences. Our of 9 papers, 2 require no studying at all while 2 more require minimal studying, leaving only slightly more than half requiring studying.
About today, it was yet another ultra slack day in school, with self-study occupying most of the time. Word challenge has also spread through a lot more in the class, and if anyone hasn't played it before he definitely has helped someone else by contributing. Even Natty has.
Again about the KKK, the K of the KKK brought chin chow into the toilet and spilt some. So, the rest of the KKK starting shouting in class that Keshav shitted on the floor. I mean, seriously. How much more Adi can you get?
This is the last stretch before exams, the last night before the last day before the exams taking place the day after tomorrow. Will I be left with a stern warning at the end of the dastardly events or will it be a simple happy ending? The latter sounds really promising, but whatever the outcome, I know that I will be buying spore.
Since its about time I go back to geography, I'd best stop typing never-ending-ly.

Back, and finally stressed
Well, I'm back from my weekend, and since I'm gone out of the house most of my weekends. I can officially declare that Friday, Saturday and Sunday are my off days for blogging. Sure, maids only get one, students and most workers get two, but I however, I indulge myself to three.
Well, before the weekend, I mentioned (I think) that I hadn't really felt any stress yet. Well, can't say the same now. I was a permanent fixture in class for doing extremely detailed geography revision and note creating throughout 40 minutes of LA (B), 30/40 minutes of recess, 1h 20 minutes of P Sci Prac, 30/40 minutes of LS. Of course, the time in between lessons was spent improving my vocabulary. Nothing to do with words or challenges or word challenges of course. I mean, my tablet wasn't even on! If you were wondering anyway, extremely detailed means after those 3h of doing it, I only finished creating notes of 5 topics. I am tested on chapters 18-31, meaning that I have 14 to do in total. On the bright side, the detailed note writing means I've already half-memorized everything written down. For someone intending to take geography next year, I guess its quite important for me.
So, I've set up a sort of game rationing kinda thing. So I come home, slack till 5, do the little homework nowadays till 5:30 - 6, have dinner if not do homework till dinner if not slack till dinner, then after dinner is spent revising. This has been due to an onset of stress, realising how far behind otehrs I've been in studying. It might just be how I survive, like while I own others in concept questions because I understood the classes, others own me in memorizing questions. The bad thing is that I have no point of comparison at all. These EoYs are just scarily fast, without warning, but with teachers still struggling to finish their syllabus. During the mid-year papers, most subjects had at least 2 mock tests before the test itself. Sure, many mock tests are given out this term too, but all the answers are put on lms. There is simply no time to do THAT many mock tests and check all of them and be a good student and learn and do well all at the same time.
On exam unrealted news, I have decided that I am going to buy spore after the exams. Preferably during the marking days, but anytime after exams sounds good to me :D However, I don't know if I will be felling happy after all the papers, or diappointed because I know I didn't do well. I was saved last year because the 50% in which I studied for each of the papers was the exact 50% which came out. Was it an intelligent guess by me which was right, or was it just a stroke of luck? I've been transported into primary school more stressed than I should be and thinks too much for own good mode. One thing's for sure, exams have finally taken over my mind completely. And I am not lovin' it.
I'm currently delaying now, for I don't know when to begin doing some history work. This rambling on about everything on my mind for the past few days seem to have a somewhat therapeutic effect, or maybe its just teh music I'm listening to now.
Music. Yet another thing I've been thinking of. With no music, I get distracted easily. With music, I work well for a while then lose concentration totally when I start to get bored. In both instances, I ultimately fall asleep. Bad me. However, it seems that the best time for me to study is early in the day, when I am in school. The bad thing is, I'm in school so there's no time to revise. Which leads to why
I was pleasantly surprised in school today. Most of the periods were free periods, with music allowed. The perfect environment for me (early in day, bright lights, music, air-con) which could never be created at home, it seemed. It was wonderful. One more day like that, wednesday to free study and its the exams already. Judgement day after judgement day, a series of unfortunate events. Can't wait.
Well, I'd best be doing some real studying instead of talking nonsense forever and ever.

Exams!
Well, exams are "just around the corner", "driving us up the wall", "stressing us out"(less than a week, 3 school days more) and yet I haven't actually started proper revision yet. Sure, a schedule planned out, scraps of information revised a bit here and there, but never a more than hour actually study a lot and memorize things kind of session. Sure, I actually listen to all classes now, but still I see all the usually slack people studying. Now it seems its left to QYJ and me to finally start studying. :(
For one, my time management at home is quite unique. It is based around the amount of homework I have in a day. So, if I need more work, I'll play less. When i try introducing a new thing called "study time", I start getting confused and I just end up slacking while revising at the same time, resulting in not very productive revising. And yet I don't really seem to feel any stress to mug, because my philosophy is that mugging is for the day before, the days long before and for skimming through, organizing chapters, knowing what to do or exams, do homework and listen in class.
On unrelated new, our school day today was yet again slack, which isn't actually good because not much learning is done. Teacher Terence yet again took over another class that would be about the same as a free period, this time computer sciences. Not many complained, because you could both sleep and use your tablet without supervision in the former's class.
As with exams, there is subject choosing. Unlike almost all in my class, I am taking combination "D".
On totally unrelated news, I realised that this weekend is the F1 race! I'm not a fan of F1 races, but now that its in Singapore, me being the patriot I am, i can't help but be excited.
On even more totally unrelated news, I just watched China's second space mission launch into space, for a walk on the moon. Well, Americans have astronauts, Russia has cosmonauts, and apparently China's are called taikongnauts, tai kong being chinese for space or sky? (My chinese is not near powderful). Sounds weird. And if I'm not wrong those are the only countries who bother sinking their money into a business where spacesuits alone are like 23 million each.
Lastly, as I write this post, I am contemplating whether or not to study for a while or to go to sleep immediately. Having just finished my history work (do or get out), I'm not exactly tired but not in the mood for studying (most of the time I am not anyway).
Having decided to sleep early today, I have nothing more to say.
Signing off,
Thats all.

And yet I don't really seem to feel any stress to mug, because my philosophy is that mugging is for the day before, the days long before and for skimming through, organizing chapters, knowing what to do or exams, do homework and listen in class.
On unrelated new, our school day today was yet again slack, which isn't actually good because not much learning is done. Teacher Terence yet again took over another class that would be about the same as a free period, this time computer sciences. Not many complained, because you could both sleep and use your tablet without supervision in the former's class.
As with exams, there is subject choosing. Unlike almost all in my class, I am taking combination "D".
- Language Arts (English+Lit)
- Chinese (Mother Tongue)
- IHS (Introduction to Human Societies)
- Enriched Mathematics
- Advanced Mathematics
- Physics
- Chemistry
- Geography
On totally unrelated news, I realised that this weekend is the F1 race! I'm not a fan of F1 races, but now that its in Singapore, me being the patriot I am, i can't help but be excited.
On even more totally unrelated news, I just watched China's second space mission launch into space, for a walk on the moon. Well, Americans have astronauts, Russia has cosmonauts, and apparently China's are called taikongnauts, tai kong being chinese for space or sky? (My chinese is not near powderful). Sounds weird. And if I'm not wrong those are the only countries who bother sinking their money into a business where spacesuits alone are like 23 million each.
Lastly, as I write this post, I am contemplating whether or not to study for a while or to go to sleep immediately. Having just finished my history work (do or get out), I'm not exactly tired but not in the mood for studying (most of the time I am not anyway).
Having decided to sleep early today, I have nothing more to say.

Apocalypse Day
Today started out fine, with me getting to witness spore being played for the first time. (The game I've been thinking of getting)
From there, it became freaky. While walking to the audi with CK, QYJ and Marcus, something was very wrong. For one, the sky on our left was bright though cloudy, the sky on our right was dark and cloudy, while the sky straight ahead was YELLOW. Extremely freaky colour for sky, no doubt. While Marcus was then saying how we needed to speak swahili because some creature (or something somewhat similar) was causing it, my extra blocked up nose still managed to detect a very strong smell of MEAT which was just very disturbing. This was then explained by our combined effort as "A fight between light,darkness and yellow." The smell of meat was still unexplainable though. =P
As if that were not enough, I had to sit next to my CLASS TEACHER for the entire duration of the farewell chapel (to bid farewell to the yr 4s and 6s who are leaving the school even though we will still be seeing them for the next month or less). This included her staring at me (face 10cm or less away) whenever she thought I was not singing any one of the hymns. This also included her staring (face 10cm or less away) at people next to me, such as "Quek Yong Jian stop scratching like that" or whats Adhika doing? Freaky.
It got better after that, thankfully, except that Honours Day just never seemed to end (ever). However, I managed to spend a bulk of it fighting over the two armrests from BC on my left and Faiz on my right. Surprisingly, I managed to control both armrests for a surprisingly long amount of time. (though BC was a big problem).
I then wasted the entire afternoon away looking through hundreds of blogskins, before choosing this one. Though the text,proportion and layout are what I feel perfect, the design could be better. Good enough for me, though...
Since then, nothing much has really happened, til about 6-6:30pm when the smell of meat came back. Worst still, it seemed only I could smell it. Freaky.
Now, I must again attempt to start doing homework to survive another day in school. Now, to me, doing homework is like trading in work for tokens, only to exchange them to be spared a life during actual school. All I look forward to are weekends, yet I'd ratehr have no weekends because it ends so fast and I feel even worse about the next week of school. Neverending cycle of surviving, I guess. The only thing that seems to prevent me from total craziness is game breaks in between homework (Homework in between games? :P) and others in school who are undergoing the same cycle.

How I've been
Well, this blog is meant to show how I am, so I best get started.
Today was easily the best school day during curriculum time since year 1 when all teachers were gone for OEP. The only proper lessons were mother tongue and history, which means 2 hours out of 6 hours and 40 minutes were not slack. As if it were not enough, the tomorrow is honours day/farewell chapel, so there will be no lessons and just an IT fair-like crowd going to the toilet to engage in activities such as PSP gaming, gameboy gaming, not to forget handphone and MP3 player gaming. Followed by a PE and physical science practical dominated day and a short friday, before another weekend.
Today, some very specail events happened, like ISO (Individualised Study Options) (Research Project) lesson when only two groups out of four completed everything today, which was the deadline. When our teacher said we were free, our group's response to her "You can do self study now" was "Madam can we slack?". Ten minutes later, during the arrival of the other group who finished their work (2.12), she said the same thing, and received the reply "Madam can we go to class and take textbooks to study?". Tsk. To think teachers wonder why our class is the worst.
Not to forget teacher Terence's lesson, always brightening up our day for all the wrong reasons. He does this in all kinds of different ways for different people. Firstly, during his class, there never fails to be at least five people sleeping. Much needed sleep nonetheless, brightening their day for other teachers who care if their students sleep during their class. Though there are many more reasons, I cannot ever finish listing them out.
Again, class spirit was shown in our class for all the wrong reasons. Last year, every thursday, Nancy Kang would attempt to enter the class, onlyu to find the class empty. Or just the whole class hiding against the wall, with all lights off. Except for *cough* Jamin *cough**cough*, to whom Nancy Kang would give a motherly smile. (Which would make you vomit like vomit boy, needless to say). This was repeated again today in class for the greater good of the class.
"Sir, can you release us ten minutes early for recess?"
"But I want to go through the past yer papers"
"Erm... sir, we didn't bring them" Class nods heads, all with paper in their bags.
Sir thinks for a while, starts to pack bags. We just leave happily.
On unrelated news, the KKK has started a new activity- using a glue stick to put glue on chairs. I'm sorry, but I must describe this Adi-like event. They put glue on teh etacher's chairs, and start imitating teaher's reactions. Then, one guy says to the other "Wait, put it later, if you put it now it will dry" The otehr guy's reaction? "No lah". It dried. They tried putting some on my chair too, but i just sat at the edge of the seat and they thought i didn't know. *sighs*

The post before all other posts
Well, before anything other occurences occur here, I'd like to declare: First Post!
I'm excited already. Reading some other people's blogs, I notice how they try to make their blog posts longer. I would like to take this paragraph to declare them hopeless.
Next, I would like to lay ground rules. (This term gave me much interest after reading the ones in Golden Village which have disturbing looking characters all over)

- No spasticity, utter stupidity, mindless braincrushing, or anything which might have Adi-ish connotations or may be related in any way to the cause which Adi lives for.
- No smokers.
- No spamming
