9284/04 *sigh* | Was geht ab?
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...last practical i will ever do in my JC life...9284/04: Biology Practical. Well, what can i say?
Scheiss. Now that's fitting. Okay, i didn't study that much...but what came out was like...respiration. -.- okay. enzyme. -.- hai. And then...i wasted time studying animal histo...turns out they only gave us a measly
stem TS for microscopic studies...bleah. Anyway. Respiration was like shit...because i thought the ink would move
smoothly...i did like 15 readings lor. Ok put that aside since my readings were still quite ok. Enzyme was >.< because...hello, when you do
quantitative Benedict's test on
0.001%, 0.01% n 0.1% glucose, like
hellooooo there's NO difference? Whatever. and this invigilator came up to me and told me to keep moi eyes to myself...i said "no wod. ok lor" haha...i didn't want to argue with him...in such cases, when this David faces that Goliath, David
always becomes puree. no point. haha...
Finally talked to
Jiayi this aqfternoon...comments about bio pract: "eh let's move on" hahaha...screw liao...game over. time to pick up the pieces, so to speak. Got a letter from my jiejie Sam also...hai...i miss her tons...and she's kinda lonely there too...jie...ich schreib dir gleich zurueck ok?? wahrscheinlich soll ich meinen Brief hier abtypen auf Deutsch...hahaha...na ja Witze witze!! mach's gut!~ and you all out there too. mach's gut. ciao!
9182/02 | Los geht's mit dem Abitur!
Hallo ihr alle...today is the official beginning of my written papers. 9182/02: German Leserverstaendnis, or reading comprehension as you all out there would know it...well. So far i don't think i've lost any marks (e.g. Umformulierung or Wortschatz...) i better not since they're like
giveaways...anyway. Das Thema heisst: Zuwanderungspolitik. What does it mean? Well, it's basically gives a sitrep of the immigrant problem in Germany now...definitely more difficult than last year's...well...it wasn't too bad lah i must say...the passages were fair but the questions weren't....hello, do you still get reading comprehension questions which ask "How many people were arrested?!" like, -.-? haha...but let's be grateful for 2 points given to you as a gift. Makes sure you don't get 0, in any case....=P
This german written paper has one more significance: with it begin my A's. The written part that is. *sighs* wie die Zeit vergeht...it seems like just 2 weeks ago when i just stepped into NJC and now it's the end?! Time really flies...2 years are nothing...but yet at the very closure of your life at say 90...you can look back and say you've seen it all and walked long enough...the human psyche is a masterful piece of engineering, isn't it? adieu...
Oh...did i mention something? the Instruction Room was freezing. i guess it's like that when you only have 6 people, 1 to each desk...but then again i'll never get such a broad nice writing space again! *wails* ahh well. Groesse Erwartungen sind nicht zu verwirklichen. til then...
NJC Open Day | Rekord-brecher | Pruefung-Stress
Hallo ihr alle...hey after today's happenings, i think i rock. hahaha...anyways. First things first was NJC Open Day lah. too bad...the turnout wasn't as good as last year...especially oac...what happened, juniors?? Maybe it's cuz this year's structures too stable liao...such tt i could climb up to the bridge and sleep...haha...ya anyways. all of us became sec 4s again...we all wear our sec. sch tees....haha. canoeist tried to ask me join them. i said "sorry i year 2....-.-" hahahaha...anyways. went to find schraudy to let her mark my lese. it's kinda better (or so she said since she was so busy anyway) and so many pple came by that i ended up sitting there for like 1.5 hours looking like a fool, bringing potential lepers to the deutschzimmer and back as well as chatting with teachers...gilbert lee was like "eh u sec 4 ar..." hahaha...anyway i'm thinking that
alles wird besser (it's gonna get better)...who knows? jiayou jiayou!!! =D
I rock. broke my pullup record. 15. haha....
15!! anyhows. first pia 9 SHM (simple harmonic motion following the equation of the curve y = sinx) style (ie using momentum) then pull 6 more...shack sial. but i feel quite high...never knew the potential was within me...well. the human potential can and must be stretched. just as i haven't been running for quite awhile...i shall re-discover that potential! haha...
Monday's German Lese...quite stressed...i dun wanna screw up. never again. must do well lor....aiming for an A for german and nothing else...still...bio pract's next thurs also but we're going rock-climbing after that...who knowS? may have chiobus climbing wif us wor. that, however is a very big may. wish us lepers luck! and wish me luck for bio pract too. May it be easy and a breeze. 'til next time.....
Erste Hilfe mit mir | Muede....ich fuehle wie Scheiss | Wovor ich Angst habe | Ich werde reich
Heys all...this obviously won't be very long...these two days i've been back to school and i really can't explain why i just feel like shit. Really lor. i think i am weak or ah gua or whatever you call it. could also be that my stupid brother had to pass his stupid sickness to me now. if that's so i will kill him...or at the very least expose him to some amount of unpleasurable abuse...stupid thing...bleargh nevermind lah....just feeling like shit or terrible or what. I just had a one hour nap. Somehow, i feel worse than if i had no nap at all. damn...i think it's due to some biological clock effect or what lah. Maybe i'll do some research when i'm in the mood.
IF i ever get in the mood that is. *sighs*
I'm afraid. very afraid. Afraid that i will just screw up my german reading compre and lose my A. Really. Not just Schraudy, the whole school, and the 6 of us ourselves have aimed to get an A, not for anyone, but for our own sakes. It's our lives and naturally we too want the best rite? i did this compre yest and it came back today looking like....crap. i don't even see why i bothered doing it in the first place if i'm gonna get such lousy results...and my german is really degenerating...i don't use words anymore...something like forgetting their very existence or wod...sure i know what they mean but i hardly use them at all! WHAT IS HAPPENING?! *sighs*
Had a first aid practical today. on myself. who would take a knife to dig out a splinter embedded in your skin? I sound maniacal. but still. that's what i did. haha.
And...about getting rich? me, reuben and kelvin are taking part in this scriptwriting competition...our plot is cool but as we're using it for competition...es muss aber geheim bleiben, okay? =X. all i can is that the jackpot is worth
15 grand...and perhaps a shot at hitting it big...wish us luck. =P
9182/07 | du kannst meine Zuhause als....Drueckerei nennen!
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...this is the last time you'll see this lucky number...because tomolo i'm gonna...Abschied nehmen von ihnen...byee kursarbeiten!! haha i've printed them NICELY liao...if schraudy returns them to me i'll go to the OAC store and sharpen my parang man. grrrr. after all the effort today...can you believe i spent the whole late afternoon and evening fussing with my printer?! my house is becoming a printing press...still must go n buy cartridge some more. i'm poorer by 50 bucks now...always feeling damn poor...die liao...
ich bin sowieso stolz drauf, euch alle da draussen mitzuteilen: das Drueckerei wird fuer IMMER und EWIG abgeschlossen. Danke. =D~
yesssssssss...finally it's over...haha. on another note. i hardly mugged today. shit.
Die Psychoanalyse | Woche von Faulenzen | Verschwendung
Heys ihr alle da draussen...Finally this is my Woche von Faulenzen...the week for slacking...as in i dun have any papers this week la. Still must study rite? Parents not in some more. woohoo...but cannot havoc lah. have to have to have to study!!! Why can't i discipline moiself like other pple?! It's disgusting to see how other people mug and how i just lay back and watch the world go boy...yesss. anyway. shall go and mug bio later.
The weather this weekend has been perfect for outings...especially rock climbing...dammit lah...it seems that whenever you want to rock-climb bad weather threatens. i dun care man. there had better be about 10 non-consecutive days with such good weather (sun + wind + more sun) so that i can rock climb. there are 7 more routes waiting. what's more...alot of pple are joining us for climbing this holz too...so i'm sure u all dun wanna be disappointed too rite? eme, dun paiseh le. haha...can climb means can climb de la.
Now coming to psychoanalysis today...this has something to do with
parapraxis or slips of the tongue/pen/blablabla or i guess you could also call it
the alien hand syndrome... when you do something unconsciously...for example, write the wrong numbers in a mathematical formula, call someone you haven't called for ages, said whatever you thought of someone despite your valient efforts to suppress the urge to say it (e.g.this person is a real bastard or farker or whateva lah.) Well...it works like this:
Our
consciousness is only a small part of our mental being. The
unconsciousness makes up the remaining huge part...whenever we try to suppress an urge, consciously we try to throw it into the unconsciousness...but that's not all! Sometimes the unconsciousness is at work in the conscious mind...by making us do unconscious things which reflect our deepest thoughts and secrets which we may not even be aware of. Thus your smallest slip-up could say a lot about your thoughts. But, don't try to destroy your unconsciousness...if you bar that door you are risking mental illness.
das ist eine Warnung.
Yesss. that's my piece. And this is for everyone taking physics out there: tuesday's practical rite? here's a really useful tip for you....it's
2 hours long!! now, as if you didn't know that. *grins*
Ich bin ein Spion! | Schwaenz nicht die Schule!
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...da bin ich es wieder nach 3 Tagen und ich will euch sagen...Schule macht Scheiss! It's like...helloo, you wake up at 6 am and go to school for like nothing...sorry for sounding like such an
ingrate but yeah that's how i feel...it's only worth going to school for GP since i made such a big screwup...bio with khoo has kinda lost the meaning of tutorial...bleargh i only go there to get banged and to bang her back...it really is reflective of a teacher's quality i think...i learned a lot more (read:
A LOT) under mrs chee...i have come to really respect bio and be much more confident when treating bio in comparison to last year with khoo...
kudos to you...really.
Starting to pon school these days. Especially wed...ponned German. Hello, ich muss 2 Stunden davor warten und danach noch 2 Stunden deutsch...wie kann man denn das ertragen?! Deshalb bin ich nach Hause gelaufen und GP geschrieben...but how i heard...i scraped my A1 for german oral...*sighs* so i have to stay in and pia more german...>.<
comments:
ein bisschen selbstbewusstlos bei dem Anfang aber es ging langsam immer besser...
I think Wittmeyer has a point there. Whenever i have to present something oder sonst sowas i tend to get really, really,
really tensed up...but as the questions come and i can engage the audience, i slowly get more confident...i guess i thrive on discourse....haha....
Been getting back onto Splinter Cell. passed CIA HQ, Kalinatek and now at Embassy 1 liao...but i really not interested in playing liao...losing its meaning. go and study lor. haha....
9258/04 | Ich habe fuer nix gelernt
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...as today's lucky number is....9258/04: Chemistry Practical. What can I say? I say they damn cheater...like, helloo? I studied inorganic QA for nothing?! They had to come out with
organic QA. Bet every JC's Chemistry department is like super gek sim now because the focus of QA is always on the inorganic side... we had, what,
one organic chemistry practical? whoooo~ but then again, maybe it's good because we're all equals now, and what's more the marks are easy to get there eh....wells i'm not gonna bang on it but i'm gonna stay hopeful...=P
VA was bad. BAAAAD. Out of all the possible pairs of reagents they came out with
nitrite ion this time...nitrite with KMnO4...well, okay, but there was this little part about titrating a bit and then waiting for reaction to proceed...can you believe i did
FIVE titrations? I even had to cancel out my 3rd one because i committed waaaay too many errors there....end: 25.53. Wells. somewhere in the middle i guess...got relatively good chances there....i'm also hoping they mark kinda leniantly cuz we've like never done it before? ooh...but the cancellation of titration looked a bit suspicious...i guess they don't suspect so much lah...it's not as if cheating is possible...plus the fact that you can't use correction fluid makes my work very very messy...cuz i cancelled the titre values thrice. bleah. bad....but stills. never mind lah.
This amounts to me studying for nothing. Should have just relaxed and watched more TV....jeez. if today's paper was standard, wells ok lah. but it's totally nonstandard?! helloo?! bleah. I just hope i can A the paper. then that'll be another down.

Paradox
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...something for you to think about.
Socrates comes to a river with a bridge across it guarded by a great and wise man. The man tells Socrates: If your next utterance is true, I swear that you will be granted safe passage across the river. Else, I will see to it that you are thrown into the raging waters below."
Socrates replied, "You are going to throw me in the river."
Is this really a paradox? I don't think so....just a case of providing an answer which cannot lead to either cause...haha....haiyoh...did 1 maths paper today. Paper 1 of HCJC. measly amount...bleargh...must work!! but i dun wanna!! *sighs* die lo.....
Der grosste Fehler ist, keine zu machen
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...makes sense doesn't it? Everyone makes mistakes. The biggest mistake is to commit
no mistakes whatsoever...you never taste failure and if you don't taste failure, how will you really appreciate success? And if you don't appreciate success when it comes, how will you ever be happy eh?
By the way.
Distinction for Chem S. haha...if wod mummy said was correct lah. she said it was 68 mah...i'm happy. A distinction and an ungraded...not that bad ey. haha...hmms.
And if you're into dance music, get Generation of Love by Rocco...you won't regret it. It's a new act comprising many artistes including Pulsedriver (think Galaxy) but...it's Euro-Dance. enjoy!
9182/07 | Ergebnisse
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...today's lucky code is 9182/07. German Coursework. I'll be working on it these few days so i guess you'll be seeing this lucky number eh hahaha...Sind Sie Gewinner? rufen Sie jetzt an!! 999....haha...anyway. Got the 2 courseworks back today for some reworking...not major luckily...just need some touch-up work...eh...maybe i'll be going over to spas' place to scan stuff...haha...
Got back some more results today. Bio overall: B. scraped 60...so...AAAB C6?? aiyoh...GP is SUCH a sore thumb...dammit...i will have to moderate my question style...it seems i'm doing it for german too. Philosophy loh. ask too many questions. But you hardly get any answers and what, you going to write a dissertation for a GP essay? Well I'll do it when philosophy comes out...haha...but i'm supposed to avoid risky topics...well...if u dun try how's it gonna work? But something DOES work: einleitungen with philosophy...heh...i managed to pull descartes off. hmmms. worth thinking about...
Got back Chem S today also. 68/100? Wells merit was 60 and distinction is 68 or 69...they're only awarding 5 people with it...let it be 68!!
I will be eternally grateful......
9182/01 | Anfang der Ende
Heys...you will be seeing these codes in some of my later blog entries yea. Anyways. today was 9182/01 - German Oral. wtf. First things first eh. Wells, as if waiting for
everyone wasn't bad enough i had to wonder in there and let wittmeyer bang me....Gentechnik...Well from wod schraudy prepared with me i thought we would discuss reasons and difficulties faced by people involved in genetically manipulated food but instead we ended up arguing over moral and ethics...i clean forgot some things (e.g. in germany GM foods are labelled but i said i didn't know anything about it when wittmeyer asked...) and some of my arguments weren't so clear (sogar naiv! scheisse.) Esp. about the part where there was some conflict between ethik und moralitaet...i said if pple raised enough hell scientists wouldn't do it. with hindsight...that was damn naive, and wittmeyer had to remind me...egal lah. cuz when asked if i would do GM food in the future i used it back on him..."aber nach Herrn Witmeyer bin ich ein bissle naiv, nee? Ich kann das Ueberlegen andere Wissenschaftler uebergeben" heh. banged him back abit...how unsatisfactory though...
Groundbreaking news: A1 for the paper. Es soll aber geheim bleiben, nicht? hmph. haha.
Still. This marks another beginning: Anfang der Ende. the Beginning of the End. Alpha and Omega. bla bla bla. Like i said yesterday...everything we have learnt will come into use now. War begins. Unsere Zeit ist um. Good luck, brave friends and fighters...let's get out there and kick ass. Alright? =) Keep the faith. =P And taryn:
take care of my drumsticks!! You can name them...i named them Eany and Meany but i forgot which was which...haha...take care!
Sie ist gekommen! Wer?? SIE!! Die ENDE ist gekommen!
Hallo ihr alle da draussen...it's the beginning of the end. The A Levels begin tomorrow with 9182/01, German Oral. 6 years of effort will culminate in a short 15 minutes tomorrow. So...i shall speak in German today. Leute, Freunden, ihr alle...jetzt duerfen wir eigentlich nicht aufgeben. Das stimmt schon, oder? Ich weiss, dass manche von euch auch so niedergeschlagen fuehlt...aber morgen macht das nichts mehr. Kampf weiter! Der Weg zu den Sternen steht offen...natuerlich laufen wir dazu, oder? Nach den Pruefungen denken wir dann darueber nach, was wir mit der Septic Tank tun okay? =P go go go!! die Zeit ist um!
mon couer et sa coeur toujours! | Was nun?
That's what Gambit said to Rogue at X-treme X-Men #10...been awhile, hasn't it? Haha...quite retro these days, so i went back to read all of them...although i've stopped collecting...probably gonna buy the paperbacks at the end of the year. The artwork for this series is MAGNIFICENT. Trust me. haha...Finally the weekend is here but will i be able to enjoy it? No....you wish! i have to slog on and on for my
German 01 (Oral) which is on
Tuesday, 7th October...it's beginning! the End is here! Repent!!! Okay that's a bit too much, but if you haven't been mugging (like me) then perhaps you really should consider that...i feel so guilty...tonight i'm gonna refine my courseworks further then get to work on Bio i guess...got 38/65 for Options. bleah...no good! Not like Reuben, always say never mug but in the end get gd results...
Liar!
Anyway, today's french topic approximates to:
my heart and her heart...always! what a stupid Cajun thief, Gambit...but still, romantic to a fault. haha....and he does it with style!
With some insight, i should have attempted question 10 for GP essay...it's fraggable...but i shall not brood over it...it's over isn't it?! then let it be! The question now is:
was nun? : What now?? time to go back to work?? to slog your remaining life away? i don't know...and certainly it doesn't sound right...holiday mood, i quote Kelvin as saying...happy holidays lor! but muz mug...i guess having German throughout October is a good enough example? wells. your choice. ciao!
Great Expectations
Got an A for German. Nothing new. Except that it's a NEW
low of 80%....*sighs* My fall has begun....
Got back GP today too. *goggles* What have I
DONE?! Got 26 for essay when i expected 30...comments? Asking too many rhetorical questions. My argument isn't cogent enough. Not that the examples are lacking, but the argument could certainly be better written. Wells. What have I DONE?! I ask that again...maybe a few more times and i'll feel better. Maybe this is the nadir of my performance and things'll pick up. The question is: Will the rebound see me at my zenith during A's? Or is this just another waste of time? i've heard about moderation but i don't want it. really. it's like...useless, and i want to remind myself never
EVER to be so stupid for GP again. 46/100. C6. Scraping a pass ISN'T what people from A01 are supposed to get...I guess i will have to find Champagne and talk to her about this...i have to sort of change my style of writing, as well as keep myself informed...difficult? wait and see. I'm thinking philosophy will be a good Einleitung for my essays...seeing how the history of thought has changed the world...But how lucky will i be to actually get an essay which i can frag? What are the odds? Small, no doubt. *sighs* i'm soooooo screwed!
Ueber das Klettern | Noch mehr Hausaufgaben bitte | Wu Jian Dao II

Then i intend to do 1 more Kommentar...I'll write a lil something about the Oral tomorra, in case Schraudy decides to pull that on us. grrr. I want to kill already. Perhaps i shall nail the German Room shut after A's. Was denkt ihr darueber? I guess it's really good that our German is done before any other paper...we won't have to see her at all during our A's...which isn't too bad. *winks* kekeke...
Went to watch
Wu Jian Dao II today...the plot is super seh lor. So many twists....plots within a plot, and how undercover plans can go wrong...It's worth the money, so go and watch it! The plot is GOOD. Coupled with
