O-Level SPA...among others

TODAY must be the worst day this year. assembly is cancelled for the no reason, so i dun get to receive my Distinction cert, but its ok, i dun wan to anw, not in front of everyone. so malu. ok. then, emaths, got the next trigo worksheet. so annoying. cld barely do it. little did i know that was only the beginning. then had geog. was such a waste of my time. she finished up hard engineering for coastal management, then at 10.10, she chionged through soft engineering, then gave us homework. we had to rush to the bio lab. we sat our bio Science Practical Assessment, which is for O-Level, there are 3 sessions, altogether consituting 20% of our total science mark. so i hv one session this year, 2 next. and today's was so screwed up. i mean, i got all my working correct, and i got the answer, but my graph was SO screwed up. i was so depressed just now. anw. then after that, lazed ard in class tho we were supposed to go for pe. but then, it was recess, then it was time for me to go. had to go get changed. why? cos today is also my 25m Live Firing for M16-S1. i was really nervous coz these were live rounds. meaning, in the case of a misaimed shot, someone cld die. so, high-risk. we only left school at about 12.35, i think, due to circumstances beyond our control. then spent the whole bus journey complaining and whining to ashraff in malay, cos no one else understood. then, get there, briefing, then go and shoot. omg, i swear by the time it was my turn, i was positively hyperventilating. i swear, when i heard the gun go off, i got such a shock. the recoil is much stronger than the simulated one, though. anyway, i'll spare u the agonising process itself. by the end of it, my results were: 1/18. yes, one hit, not missed. absolutely amazing, isn't it? luckily, as there were only 2-3 schools there, we finished by 3.30, which is very early. left the camp at 3.45 to Boon Lay station, reached there at 4, then because i was so early, i had to go home myself, so i had to take all the way to city hall, then take a bus home. thank god there is a direct bus to my hse. but really, im just so tired, and i cant wait for break fast. of course, when ur half dead, it never comes fast. 5 more minutes!!!!! ok then, thats about it. its finally the weekend. yay! catch y'all later!

Avril Lavigne's The Best Damn Tour...

HEY HEY everyone. yeah i know it's been a while since i last wrote in, but i've been busy. now, my last post was 5 days ago. what's happened? hm. let's see. friday, went for prayers, then went out for a while, i think. if i remember correctly. not much. saturday, my life finally got back to normal when there were no more mentorship sessions. yay! then, after that, went for break fast at my gran's house. had fun playing PS2 with my cousins. was sad when i had to go though. ah well. that's it. then, sunday. finished up any last minute work i had in the morning (or what was left of it, considering i woke up at 11) before school started. then slacked the whole day. then, in the evening, went for Avril Lavigne's THE BEST DAMN TOUR!!! it was SO cool!! i dun have any pix/vids though, i'm sowee. i was disallowed from bringing in any imaging devices. but nvm that. i had SO MUCH fun. i went with my sister, just the two of us, and we rocked the night away! my only complaint was that the concert was a little short; less than an hour and a half. but shes SO COOL!!! ARGHHH!

Miraculously, I managed to get home before 11pm, in a car obviously, but still. i only slept at 11.30 though, then woke up for sahur, couldnt sleep, just lay in bed till 6.30. i swear, the first day back in school was bad enough. double maths is a killer, along with bio. and it was a depressing day. in malay class, i was the only ONE out of 44 to fail my summary with 7/20. then had amaths. stupid trigo (8). then, after recess was bio, which was SO boring that i actually finished my trigo during bio, so i could slack during 2nd maths period. then she decided to give out trigo (9), and i looked at it, and that's all i did. stared at it. i swear, i could have spat blood. proving of trigo identities. i already had this presentience that i would not be able to do it. and i was proven right. i was falling behind desperately, and snapping at everyone. i was just livid. forutnately, there was no TDP, but i was staying behind with zh to do trigo (9) so we wouldn't fall behind the next lesson, we stayed back until 4.45, and we only did a quarter of the questions. although we attempted half the paper, we skipped like, every alternate qn. sigh. i just gave up there and then.

Then, there's today, which was ok. lit was tolerable, double malay was bearable, much better than usual actually, and chem was pure fun. then rme was so slack, watched Ordinary People, then el, planned out our essay for tomorrow, geog was so boring, i was falling asleep due to sheer exhaustion. and i had moved to the seats further in front. not that it helped. when she had her back turned, drawing diagrams of spits and tombolos, i was just sleeping. lol. who wants to know about spits, tombolos, longshore drifts anyway? then had mcs, we started the very rudimentary steps of our SYF routine, just as a 'screening' test, to assess our problem areas and to see each member's enthusiasm for it. it was fun actually. oh, were doing SYF Malay Dance (Tarian Melayu) next year at Central Judging; we're the pioneer batch, its an unprecedented thing in the history of MCS. something happened but i wont tell u wat. dun bother asking me. :D anyway, that's all for tonight!
