I know I shld be going crazy for the last paper – chem – but my head’s filled with relay training only. And I don’t mind. Hah.


Okay it seems that Thaddeus Cheong’s passing was a huge shock for many people from parents of young triathletes to normal athletes especially endurance runners. The police will only have the report (which I don’t think would be disclosed to the public) in a month’s time after investigations. Then there are speculations that it’s due [...]


So common test started already and would end with one last paper on Friday. Thank goodness. I don’t know why the college decides to change it to mid year exams. If they tink that’s one way to make students here get serious with the papers then its right and wrong. Yea exams sound way tougher [...]

Such a joke

24Jun07

The common test is such a joke. I mean seriously why do we stuff ourselves with so much to learn. Why don’t the teachers tell us straight in our faces that you porbably can’t cover everything so select topics that you’re weaker at or smth. Ok it’s not their fault but I think it’s a [...]

I know I should be studying and the only right reason to blog is to update and proclaim how much I’ve covered but i don’t really have much done to say other than Carbonyl compunds. I am very very screwed for CTs. And I am now very very worried for Econs because I have not [...]


I’m screwed.

20Jun07

You know what. When I don’t panic on the days before the common test, it’s not a good sign because I’ve mentally surrendered. I can’t believe I give up so easily but I’m in despair and the world just shut itself down in front of me last night when I realised cs can’t turn up [...]

Deteriorate

08Jun07

I feel myself dismantling under this cruel fate. It’s srsly retribution charging full at me. I’m lethargic on the track, lazy with the books and am simply doing nothing about it. This common test is such a dread and it’s worse when you don’t have much started. I mean, cell structure being the only thing [...]


Monday

 Okay so Monday wasn’t too blue. Ms Huang is happy that our class has better average/passes than her other 2 classes. I mean given our class size we have more passes, it’s seriously rare. I passed the paper. (: But Sam’s still the chem goddess eh. As expected, Ms Sha’s lecture always end [...]
