Irritated
Thanks to Bishan Active, I get to wake up early!
Ya, it’s 8am now, and I am already awake. It’s because there is some random event happening now at Bishan Active (which is just downstairs), and the emcee is very noisy! He’s using a mike already, and somemore, he’s shouting and screaming into the mike! I think he plans to wake the whole neighbourhood up.
Sigh, didn’t want to wake up so early actually… ’cause I need ample sleep before the concert. If this happens every Sunday morning, I’m going to cry.

Concert tomorrow
Oh my god. It’s RICO Voices of the Dragon IX concert tomorrow!
If you haven’t purchased any tickets but are interested to go, please do tell me so that I can reserve tickets for you! There are only 60 tickets left, if I’m not wrong.

Teachers’ Day Celebrations
This year’s Celebrations were a little lame. :X
But the effort put in by students to thank their teachers was superb. LOL. Many people were crowding around Staff Room after celebrations to give them their presents.

Random thoughts
I think Rafflesians are generally kiasu.
Every now and then, I get classmates asking me on MSN on my progress when there is a test the next day.
And I also do the same thing, sometimes.
Weird.

Reality
I truly understand that everything in life happens inevitably. Therefore, I faced all the major examinations in this week with a positive attitude. And yes, Chinese Prelims are over, Maths CCT is over, and the 3-day-long Japanese Prelims are over too! xD
And yes, a lot of things in life are fated and cannot be avoided…

6.25 hours of test
Today, I managed to get past 6 hours and 15 minutes of Prelims!
8 to 10am, Chinese Paper 1 (Compo + Letter writing). 10.45am to 12.45pm, Chinese Paper 2 (Comprehension etc). 3 to 5.15pm, Japanese Paper 1 (Usage + 2 Compos).
Argh. Today was very tiring and my hands were almost sore. :\ And I don’t feel good about what I’ve done today. I have no confidence that I will score well for any of the Prelim tests. (more…)

Bad Start, Good Ending to the Day
I had a bad start to the day. I reached the bus stop at around 6.45am this morning. I waited and waited, then a bus came after 15 mins, but it was packed. So I couldn’t board. (more…)

Typical Singaporeans
Bishan Active, an integrated sports hub located at the big field in front of my flat, had its opening ceremony cum carnival this morning. After many many months of construction, it’s done, finally.
This morning, I got woken up by the emcees of the carnival. Argh, then I started mugging. I wanted to go down and join in the fun but couldn’t, because I had to study. Anyway, from what I could hear from where I was (at the 16th floor), it was very fun, and there were many activities, competitions, games and prizes.

Break, finally
Biology CCT yesterday wasn’t as tough as I’ve expected it to be. But still, I am not very confident of getting a good mark for it.
After the Biology CCT and 3rd lang lesson, I went home and ate dinner. After that, I went to sleep… at 6.30pm. And woke up at about 6.30am this morning for school. I realised that despite me having slept for 12 hours, I was still yawning in school. I think I need more sleep to compensate for the energy that I used for studying and taking tests.
By the way, I have forgotten a lot of what I’ve learnt for Biology. This is why I think forcing us to memorise facts is pointless; we just memorise for the sake of getting a good score. Now after the test, we obviously will delete all this stuff from our brain memory and save the space for better use.

Not enough memory space
Have been trying to cram Bio stuff into my head in preparation for Bio CCT tomorrow.
Managed to cram in more stuff after deleting the Physics and Geography information in my brain memory.
Despite so, I’m not very confident for the paper. I hope I can get at least a 70%.

Failing Memory
I think Chicken Essence is quite good! Normally, when I wake up in the morning, I would be yawning away. However, because of the chicken essence that I drank last night, the way I feel when I woke up this morning was quite different.

Again?
Went for CCA this morning. Met a lady who asked for directions to RJC… again. Weird. Why everytime like that one? (more…)

Get ready…
3… 2… 1… it’s mugging time! For Physics, Geography, Biology, and maybe Chinese and/or Japanese!!!

Random Facts
1. Why is trigonometry so confusing? Cos 0 = 1.
2. Yesterday, my urine was red! I was so paranoid; I thought I got some diseases. But my mum said it’s because of the red dragon fruit I ate the night before.
3. I am somewhat sick. At home, I cough a lot and have runny nose. In school, I’m fine. I think it’s because of the construction work that is currently done to my flat. Zzz.

1. Here’s something that I forgot to mention in yesterday’s post. For yesterday’s Chemistry CCT, I made a stupid mistake. The question asked whether the pH of the solution will increase or decrease. I know that the solution will become more acidic, but (more…)

Have not been blogging much. Have been quite busy. My life has been generally boring.
But well, how can my life be interesting with so many stuff coming up? (more…)
