so we got back our MEP results. 58 , C5.
not that i actually even planned to include it for my L1R5. what just really cheesed me off was how NSC could just screw us over with her own instructions.
call me over-confident, complacent, proud even, but i'm satisfied with my literature. its not everyday i receive praise like that. this morale boosting encouragement would just motivate me more. for too long, i feel, i've been living in other people's shadows. always 2nd, never 1st. that would probably not change. not by a long shot.
the liverpool game is about 2 hours from now. should i watch it and feel the adrenaline run through my veins when i view the progression of a match and witness the sweet taste of victory first hand while my sleep deprived body gets even more worn out and begins losing its sharpness? or should i sleep, recharge for when the sleep is over where the result no doubt, would not differ if i watch the match or not, but when i wake up and comfirm the match details, i feel indifferent.
social pressure urges me on a stand, circumstances unbalance my cause.
and all the lights that lead us there are blinding.

what the hell am i doing here, i don't belong here.
quote of the day from Mr. J.Jeow - "You all KANNA OWNED by the physics paper, JIALAT AH."
just have to love that guy.
sorry man. i screwed up real bad. you're really a great person for being so understanding. sigh. its hard not to dwell on it. the guilt is really overwhelming. if i had a time machine and for some reason its wonky and can only transport me to one particular time and back, it would be to go back to the exact time where i wouldn't have been so careless to overlook such a great detail. i screwed up. i feel terrible. sigh.
its really hard to concentrate on a paper with so much shit going through my mind...
heres an update of the so far completed papers-
1.ENGLISH- with a little moderation, i believe i could get an A1 2.COMBINED HUMANS- definitely did better than mid years. which means at least an A2? 3.EMATHS -Paper 1 was quite fine, though Paper 2 was more difficult than we liked.(obviously) hoping for a B3 to be moderated to an A2. 4.MEP -i would be lying if i said that i screwed up the paper. well, i did confuse many of the world music things, but i think my haydn is pretty good. B4? 5.CHEM- well, i must say, L.Y is a furikin' good chem teacher, but then again...B3 with moderation i think 6.BIO- my new bio book does wonders. confident of a B3 , hopefully to be moderated to an A2? 7.CHINESE- already an A1 Yaye! 8.LIT- always had been quite proud of my lit marks. i've got confidence on the results based on the first paper though. A1? 9.AMATHS- without a doubt, i'm aiming for an A2 to be moderated to an A1.too lofty? i think not. i feel confident that i am sufficiently geared for monday and tuesday's battle.
L1R5- ENG,BIO,AMATHS,EMATHS,CHINESE,LIT = an aim of 7 points (inclusive of moderations)
L1R5- ENG,BIO,AMATHS,EMATHS,CHINESE,LIT = an aim of 11 points (without moderation)
god bless everybody.
Nick, great man, get well soon.
I, can't hear the bells.

Oh dear me.Unless i'm terribly mistaken, tomorrow is when my prelims resume. The past holiday week has been refreshing to say the least. I relaxed on Sunday and Monday. For the first time ever,watched 3 movies in the span of 2 days. Therefore, it is safe to say that i am terribly broke as of this moment.
I did manage to complete quite a substantial amount of work, especially Maths on Tuesday and Wednesday, but Thursday, Friday and yesterday, Saturday, there was no work done at all. Zilch. Zilch. How often do i use that non-word word? This proves how frustrated i am at myself for achieving nothing in 3 perfectly good days.
Today, i struck back at my books with a vengeance. Completing a long overdue NAN CHIAU A-Maths paper 1 with 55/80. Motivating myself to make up for lost time, i moved into paper 2. Emerged with a pretty motivating and morale-boosting 73/80. Let me just hope that this is not yet my peak performance in Mathematiques.
Yesterday's ACJC open house was rather meaningless, but one thing is for sure, i am quite against going to ACJC now. Probably unless i have no other choice.
Back to CHEEM-ISTRY.
Zilch.

to say the very least, the past week has been, contrary to my prior belief, rather slow paced and in layman terms, slack.
the stress of the examinations has evidently not reached us, or at least, me yet.
however, the arrival of the prelims has blatantly spelt out how quickly the months has passed.
barely 50 days from this day, we would be heralding the arrival of the dastard and dreaded o-levels. for me, my first paper would be the MEP practical. the prelims' has given me a rather substantial boost in both my morale AND my confidence in my ability to perform in my practical.
of course, it is no where near the standards set not by myself, but by my MEP teacher. her relief that i managed to salvage my terrible mid-year performance was quite clear, but her disappointment at my still immature playing skills still evident.
it all boils down to one thing. practice. undoubtedly, i had been guilty of neglecting my instruments, especially the cello. my accompanist nathan, i must say, really has my utmost respect as a friend. his enthusiasm and focus is really commendable. thanks nathan, without you, i would really have been slaughtered by mrs li. so sorry that you had to take some of my dirt from her though. you were really really good.
hail the holidays people. this one week, is not just for rest and relaxtion, but it is of course, the best time we would ever have to study.
personally, the prelims are going to be more important to me than the actual o-levels.
my chinese o-level results had reignighted my secondary 3 dreams to enter VJC, the fire of which had died due to torrid mid years.
i need to do well in my prelims to secure the 2 bonus points i might not have during the o-levels.
i cannot stress how pivotal this prelim exams would be to my pre-tertiary education. of course, my ultimate aim is to become a lawyer. through my years in school, especially this year, i have found much pleasure in arguing my case in front of authority, always trying to find loopholes for a way out. on that note, i really must say sorry to my teachers, especially a certain one who i have pleased myself by out-talking on a few occasions. but i shall not wallow in self-praise now.
