JC2 SA2 2009 Updates

GP - The comprehension passage was a little bit spastic. I don't know what descriptive words I can use... It's all about differentiating 'happiness' and 'contentment', and an in-depth 'analysis' of the two terms in many perplexing dimensions that could potentially lead the reader to eternal discontentment. GET WHAT I MEAN?

Grade: E


Maths - Quite satisfied with it, cuz I've studied for it! Unlike that crappy SA1 paper which I failed badly. Could solve the seemingly confusing Integration question, and it boosted my morale after getting humiliated by the AP GP question. Statistics is do'able, but I don't know whether my answers are correct or not. At least they made sense to me!

Grade: C


Chemistry - Very satisfied with it. 1 or 2 confusing questions in the MCQ section. Section B was manageable, a few blunders here and there. Section C was extremely longwinded, but I managed to finish every single question ON TIME. Forgot to draw optical isomers properly!

Grade: B


Physics - Couldn't do some of the questions. Especially the one on shading the boxes with the information given to you in the form of a detailed table... extremely perplexing. Could do the Kinematics + WEP questions with ease. Had a little bit difficulty with electromagnetism.

Grade: B


History - It was a relatively tough paper, because we had to complete a brand-new section of the History paper, which is a SBQ question on UN. Only had 1 practice on it before going for the test. The other questions were phrased in a tough manner, which required more analytical skill than ever.

Grade: C

June Holidays with a speck of H1N1 vibe

OH MOI GOODY.... it's been a long time since I've written in this tiny space of my imagination. Let me ramble on all the 'exciting' happenings during the June summer vacation and also delineate abit on the latest H1N1 crazy spree.

The June Holidays had been the MOST unproductive time of my JC life... Been slacking like almost every single day... spending alot of time on playing Maplestory. I still can't figure out why and how I caught the Maple-bug once again... it left me a traumatic experience in my secondary school days, AND I DON'T WISH TO LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN!! That's why I've been trying to get out of my comfort nest, and study with friends... the computer is maniacally distracting.

Singapore was at a close shave when the H1N1 situation was granted a Yellow indicator. But it seems like Singapore couldn't remain a impregnable fortress in the midst of a brewing H1N1 catastrophe. The number of infected people increased to 103 from a mere 20 within weeks... but luckily those cases were discovered promptly and the patients were sent for quaratine ASAP to prevent a potential epidemic on this tiny island. Oh... the hot weather could also have killed the nasty virus...

Let's hope that everyone can do their best in the EXAMS and stay healthy!! CHIONG TOWARDS A LEVELS !!!

Depression Diary 2

I know... I have no rights to lament here. There are people out there who suffer worse fates than me. I can only sympathise them, as an acquaintant. I believe almost everyone in TPJC Choir is now extremely moody right now... especially those individuals who could not pass the 2nd round of Choir auditions. I've witnessed emotional release from different people, and how their close friends were consoling them, or even asserting that the unjust imposed on them should be redressed. I have to say that this was the second most elegaic moments in my life, the first being the SYF 2007. To all TPJChoir members, let us infuse our emotions into the songs, sing them well, and remembering to do ourselves and our fellow choirmates proud.

We can do it!!

Life's a bed of thorny nettles...

My mood has been on a crazy swing for these few weeks... probably caused by all the stress from CCA + studies... I might just faint out any moment. One moment, I'm in my normal composure, and another moment, I become the World's Most Edgy and Ignorant Bitch, exuding a super-dao'ness aura that could just bring anyone to their boiling point. Yeah... I'm extremely moody now. That subtle nauseatic feelings, the mild grogginess... it's tearing me apart. Right now, I need to learn how to relieve myself from all the surrounding stress-factors, and establish normal relationships with people again. I know I may have offended some people with my idiotic behaviour... sorry for being such a rude and arrogant bitch. Haha!

Okay I think I need my beauty sleep now, cuz tomorrow morning is my weekly workout, which is apparently useless in helping to keeping myself fit... Bye!

Love,
Eric the Amorphous Person

I'm so tired. Save me!

Ohhhhhh moi goodness... Everyday is getting more tiring than ever. I've been sleeping around 11pm and waking up at 5.40am... to avoid the insanely crowded bus horde. I had enough of the nonsensical, hellish bus rides... People are like squeezing themselves to death within the limited space, and the bus driver would keep yelling at passengers to move towards the rear, so as to allow more people to board the bus. You can just practically suffocate and die from extreme compression in the Cabin of Hell. Board your way to death....

Let me harp on the things that are draining my life bits by bits... Choir has been extended to longer hours, due to a lack of decent improvement, and a serious lack of time + focus. I couldn't imagine what will happen on the day of our SYF.

Secondly, a relatively minor issue, is the increasing frequency of homework input. Luckily I've managed to handle my tutorials + class tests... or else I would really die, since CCA has already taken away much of my precious time.

I sincerely wish that things can get better. Please, oh please. Save this outcast!


Praying... hoping...

Depression Diary

Not really in good mood for these 2 weeks. Firstly, I'm extremely troubled by the inconsistent and worrisome performance of the Choir, and the attitude some J1s are showing is definitely a harbinger of something bad. Ahh wells... I never expect much of anything since I left VS Choir... my passion for Choir somehow wanes a little...

Another sad event is the PW Results. Got a B... what a close proximity to A! If I got a C, I wouldn't feel that bad... anyway the PW was damn trashy.

Lastly, it's the widespreading flu disease that is irking me. People sneeze and cough liberally without covering their gloriously gaping nostrils and mouths.. Oh yah and buses need to be disinfected regularly. I saw some old uncles sneezing openly onto the window panes, and later on wipe the phlegm off and rub it onto the surfaces of the seats. It's like fucking disgusting... I wouldn't want to imagine the next unlucky person of the century to be sitting comfortably and ignorantly on the thoroughly infected seat of Hell...

I'm just hoping for a better tomorrow. People can be better, environment can improve... and ultimately my life can brighten up.

Choir Practice cum Mini Outing

Today had practice at a god-forsaken place situated at some hidden alley in Bugis. The weather was extremely unbearable, and when we reached our destination, we were all soaked thoroughly in sweat. Not to mention, the practice room was fiendishly stuffy at first, because the air-con didn't function properly. We were all half-dead from the exhaustion and boiling heat. Finally, Miss Ong came and saved us all from the air-con disaster... Phewwws...

After the practice, Sara, Amanda, Rebecca, Yvonne, Wan Ling, Ming En, CherylAnne and I went to shop at Bugis. Had a look inside the newly established shopping mall - Iluma. Wow I was quite amazed by the modern architecture of the grandiose edifice... Hope that all the stores can open ASAP!!

After hanging around at Iluma with the overhelming feeling of hunger, we went to Tampines 1 in search of food. Tampines 1 is gooood, it's compact with branded stores, and it made Vivocity seemed 'extra'. 3 Cheers for having a high-end shopping paradise at our home sweet home Tampines !! =p Well.... We ended up having dinner at Tampines Mall's BK... and had a nice conversation with the rest. After that we went to buy things... cuz we haven't really spend money on anything other than food products. Tomorrow's choir again... hope we can sing better!! Bye ~

Ever-boring days...

Been doing academic work... quite boring... for the sake of aceing the A Levels, I need to persevere =P ! Other than doing homework, there's practically nothing else to do except for DoTA... browsing through tpjc.net/Choir blog/my own blog/other blogs randomly... but everything's so lame and boring. Especially the stagnant school forum, which has no appealing/innovative/interesting things to discuss about. What a fucking bore. There's not much entertainment in Singapore... I wish I can return to HK and stay with my relatives... none of my relative stays in Singapore... Haiz...

SA2 is coming!

Been trying to work very hard these few days... but whenever I reach home, I'll just play computer, and practically do nothing else. I feel so guilty...

Anyway, I've ordered $102.50 worth of Prelim Papers from the Bookshop. I've planned to complete 2 papers per day, of 2 different subjects. I must improve myself further, and aim for straight As probably... WORK HARD!!!!

Jiayou to all people out there!

CHOIR TRIP !

I'm sooo extremely anticipating to board the plane and fly my way to Slovakia (Dubai on the way as a stopover)!!! Can't wait to see my results for SA1 also... I need total mental peace to go on a holiday extravaganza! Just hope that I can pass GP and History....

Anyway choir practices are getting more hectic and tiring. Wish that our efforts can grant us the fabulous Gold/with Honours. YEAH.... so JIAYOU to choir and moi !

Cheerios,
Eric

My SA1 Checklist

OKAY... So this is the first exam of the year. A-Level year. I shall keep track on moi pathetic progress...

1) GP - Essay was quite enjoyable... could pen down my thoughts quite fluently. Comprehension was a tad too dry and bombastically annoying. 'Age of Uncertainty'... I'm very ascertain that I cannot do well in this Comprehension please.

2) Chemistry - Enjoyed doing it, as usual. Not because it was easy for me, Chemistry paper is always interesting. Especially the drawing displayed formula part and the one which they give you a reaction chain and determine and unknown chemicals/reactions. 100 Cheers for Chemistry!

3) Maths - This time I flopped unexceptionally bad on this. I was like quite blanked out for a moment, but the Vectors question sort of resurrected me from dropping further into the abyss. The PnC + Probability + Binomial Distribution was longwinded like nobody's business... If I score well in that section, I might consider doing logistical studies next time, because it involves tumultuous shifting and arranging a large horde of people and things. Choreograph the next 1000-people Olympics opening-ceremony performance?

4) Physics (Thurs) - Spotted some familiar questions in the paper. Overall, it was very manageable. Hoping for an A =)

5) History (Fri) - Couldn't finish the very last concluding paragraph. URRGHH! Anyway I was quite frantic throughout the paper, cuz there wasn't enough time. I planned my time wrongly also... so had to compromise the last 1 out of 3 essays. I really hope I can pass History... =/

Choral Exchange Programme @ VJC

Today we went to VJC for a choral exchange programme with several other choirs, of different calibres and sizes. We performed Natchwache and Alleluja, and it turned out to be quite disastrous, for we had already went through many practices on the songs. After our performance, I totally lost my mood to do anything... except for reading through my History notes. Shall not dwell on it anymore, and I hope that the choir can really sense the competition and do their best. No more lackadaisical attitudes, no more frivolous behaviour in Choir please...

Off for dinner, bye.

Random Shout-outs!

HAPPY: I FELL IN LURVE WITH DONUTS =P especially those coated in creamy white chocolate~

ON THE DOWNSIDE: MY REVISION FOR SA1 ISN'T GOING TOO SMOOTHLY! =(

Untitled

Today's choir practice was abit stricter than other sessions. Maybe we're too frivolous or overly hyperactive... anyway after Choir I went out for lunch cum studying trip @ Changi Airport with a group of J1s. We decided to eat at Popeye's Restaurant, and I ordered a Fish Fillet Burger meal for $7.20... quite reasonable for the delish Cajun's Fries and an okay-sized burger. However, I was quite displeased with how the lady at the counter dumped the packet of fries onto my tray and the content was strewn all over! After a long conversational lunch-time, we were attempting to search for a suitable place to study, but we ended up strolling around the airport, traversing across terminals like wandering nomads.

We found ourselves home at a cozy Mcdonalds Outlet, and everyone managed to settle down after an hour of non-stop chattering. Spent some time on Maths... and discussing tutorials with the juniors. Overall, the process was quite unproductive [for me], but it was interesting yea. Shall study with them in school if there's chance. Gotta mug Physics now! Adios!

The Funny Things in our ever-modernising World

This world is theoretically getting better as science and technology advance in lightning-speed style. Breakthrough in the seemingly eternal search for AIDS vaccine, filtering water with useful germs and producing methane gas simultaneously which can be tapped as energy resource, miraculous discoveries in stem-cell researches... the list goes on. Given all these commendable efforts of the contemporary world, does it necessarily equates to a better life? Please do not mind all the little grudges I'm going to make after this paragraph.

The lift at my block which was just recently renovated is malfunctioning spasmodically. The lift just get stuck at any particular floors and never descend. This is uber-inconvenience, especially after a long dreary day at school, the desire to go home and relax on the comfy sofa just went 'poof!'. Darn lift that is so trashy...

Another thing that is affecting me psychologically is the rampant advertisements that you see on moving buses and the television. I have to say some of the advertisements are quite stupid and irrelevant, especially the one promoting 'Ghee' with young innocent Campus Superstar Shawn Tok. I think it would be better if the person in the advertisement is a celebrity chef or whatsoever, rather than a little boy who is seemingly devoid of any appreciation for that can of fatty-goodness. The caption in that advertisement also made me puke... it made me imagine the cherubic boy wolfing down dollops of scrumptious Ghee... awww.... One more lame ad is the Glade Car-Perfume. Dumb women would just throw their car down the cliffs like used sanitary pads and enthusiastically flagging at the incoming car that emits an aura of the omnipotent perfume. Gosh... the frivolous nature of the ad made me feel that the perfume is so worthless.

Maybe you're thinking that I'm totally overreacting... whatever your afterthoughts, I still think that people living in this intellectual society should do justice to themselves by producing more reflective and relevant advertisements rather than employing eye-candies and bimbotic idiots to showcase their talents, while rendering the product in the background of the ad oblivious to people.

Busy is the new code of Life

Everyone's getting extremely busy these days... exams, competitions... Oh dear this is the ultimate life-drainer. I need to find a perfectly placid day, sit down on a comfy mat and cleanse my soul by a Zen deep-meditation. I can picture this tablaeu in my clogged-up mind, like an oasis in the middle of a desert filled with giant sandstorms. Right now, I need to focus, and aim towards my goal. Then I can relax in peace... temporarily. I need to get myself accustomed to the frequent exposure of academical terror otherwise I'll turn into a mad psychopath someday. Got to complete my long-winded AQ now... Adios Amigos!

Love,
Erique du Peppoir

13 Days to SA1 !

Oh-my-sweet-Mama-from-Oklahoma SA1 is just 13 days away and I'm not glamarously prepared for it! There're like quite a handful of perplexing chapters that I have not found considerable amount of enlightenment in. Let me list them out to remind myself...

Maths: Perm and Comb (This thing is making my haircrop all frizzy and tangled)

Chemistry: Amino Acids and Proteins (In the midst of comprehending all the structures)

Physics: Waves/Oscillations (Just need abit of final touch-up)

GP: A persistent lack of substantial knowledge. I need to read voraciously, have to extent my reading time into toilet breaks.

History: It's on the path of improvement, just need to read through the horribly-thick notes a few times.


All these nitty bits of stress are irritating me!! I'll make sure after this SA1 I'll go watch a movie!! Feel like receiving jolts of psychological terror from horror flicks. 'Let the Right One In' ? Haiz, gotta go now! Cya Folks!


Love from BlacquePeppoir (steak)

Choir Camp is the Ultimate Statement of Fantabulous Achievement!

YAY! for the Choir Camp 2009 !! I should announce that although it made me entirely jaded, it's worth all the painstaking efforts to keep myself alive throughout the camp. I've got to interact with more people, especially the J1s, and also had my first night-out at the notoriously ghostly-stories-laden school hall! Overall, the whole thing was quite enjoyable. One thing that I want to mention is the Amazing Race. It was really fun and out-of-the-world to some extent, especially when some team members made a joke out of themselves at a densely-populated public space!

Oh... the bus trip to Giant was fiendishly horrendous, with the rain pouring like mad, and including a horrifying brew of ferocious thunder and lightning. We were soaked in generous amounts of good water despite the prescence of sheltered narrow pathways which were pieces of pathetic temporary means of... shelter.

At Giant MegaShopalotMall, we had to search for the prices of different items that were strewn all over the labyrinth, like savage discount-thirsty shoppers. On the given list there was an item named 'Austin Nichols Wild Turkey'... Qiuting, Samia and I combed and ransacked the whole section of Meats, but we couldn't find any traces of this darn turnkey. In the end, someone from another team told us that it's actually a bottle of wine... No one could ever expect a bottle of wine to bear such an extraordinarily perculiar god-forsaken name! [There were other ridiculously un-tempting product names like Lucky Rabbit Potty and Mite Bolster, yep they were left on the shelves for the dust to settle...]

To conclude our escapade at Giant, we did a short amusing 'advertisement' on 3 selected products. Didn't know we could garner so much attention with Wally wielding a pink fairy wand and Ding Yang looking like a Naruto-clone with a belt on his head. Also, Jennifer managed to spawn a Korean-lang frenzy among those Korean wannabes, who were inveterately besotted with a tiny jargon of foreign language. Our Choir is so amazingly diverse!

All's well that end with a light-hearted prize-giving ceremony, and the guys in my team displayed their enthusiasm with yet another frivolous cheer full of Korean vibe. The camp was officially over by 6.10pm and all of us returned home with heavy, bulky bags, yet our spirits remain up high, our passion for Choir burning more intense than ever.

Dreary Days..

Life's getting overwhemingly banal and enervating. Had to wake up in the wee hours where everywhere is Stygian dark, and go to school for the morning TAF-run. Homework is seriously piling at faster than we know. So there's a mandatory need for us to complete the work ASAP, so you can have abit of free time and revision. The March Block Test is coming, and I have the whole of J1 syllabus to recap. Soon, the school library will be my second home, and also the best destination to get your hands on any resources you want for enhanced revision. Although the ambience and environment can make people feel extremely soporific... might have to flop halfway during studying.

After I reach home, I'll do my daily routine of bathing >> dinner >> 1 hour of revision >> games >> sleep. And the next day, the whole thing repeats itself again. It's a neverending cycle, and I'm wondering... how am I going to enjoy life? To do so, I need to study hard, get into a good university, and after that pursue my dream career, and pave road for a bright future ahead. This is the gist of my life, an archetypal, nondescript one. [I guess you're half-asleep while reading this sentence] Let's work hard and play hard, my folks!!

XOXO

The Dilemma of Not Having Good Analytical Skills

Almost every GP lesson is depressing. Was very disappointed with the GP results.. didn't manage to pass the Comprehension paper. The most traumatizing part was the results-taking part. Mrs Kum was like so pissed-off by the abysmal scores we've obtained... and her comments weren't motivational/constructive in helping us to improve. All she could say was 'Are you trying to set a new record? (benchmark for the lousiest mark)', and 'you have already got used to failing in the previous year'. And she was emphasising the critical lack of analytical skill in all of us. (1 more thing.. English isn't my first language at all. I'm not an American) Sorry! But I just don't have that innate/congenital ability of displaying spectacular analytical skills that would grant me 25 and above for the GP Comprehension paper... maybe I should inject some magical potion in me that boost my analytical skill instead! I'm so not conditioned to excel in GP, and she can just stop those debilitating and mordant remarks already. Can I please get a better tutor to guide us on how to be more analytical? All those reprimandings doesn't seem to help though...

I'm wondering that whether she was so acclimatized to using such poisonous comments in bid to 'encourage' us to become better person. Well I think it failed miserably. I'm not going to hear any further bits of trashy and unhelpful 'words of goodness'. I'll have my own way of passing GP. Peace.

The Start of the Battle: A Levels

I can feel the trepidations... the restlessness lurking in my heart. This is the real battle now, and I must conquer all exams and ultimately, the A Levels. I've decided to stay back after school daily to do intensive revision, both new and old chapters. Time does not wait for you, and you need to cherish any opportunities in order to succeed academically. Let's fight a good fight, my friends.

AHHH!!

Having red-eye disease now. Went to see doctor just now, the pain and persistent prickiness is extremely irritating. I wished I could dug out my eyeballs and rinse them in saline solution. It was coated in yellow inflammation ok?! It kept blurring my vision. At last the miraculous eye-drop managed to contract the blood veins that were crawling across my eyeballs... Phew...



Today had Maths paper, and it was seriously affected by my stupid red evil eyes. I was consistently distracted by the itch and couldn't have a clear mind. I was like panicking because the stuff I've learnt just disappeared in an itchy blink. Luckily the last few questions are easy... it sort of relieved my palpitations, and all the memory came back, so I went back to the first few questions and complete them. I think I can make it to an A-grade hopefully...



Tomorrow's the most dreadful day of all. It's Physics and History... the most ruthless killer in TPJC. I must confront with my utmost bravery and conquer all obstacles !! But I think I'll not pass the History one. I've always fail to do well in it... THAT'S VERY SAD ALRIGHT. Haizz... Shall go and revise my work. Bye!

GOOD NEWS!

I'm soooo back to school again... dunnoe why got this urge to study lols! Maybe it's my dream to enter university giving me an awakening call? Probably... Well, I've aimed to do well in the Diagnostic tests. If I couldn't, then I need to consolidate my foundation quickly. So.. I'm taking this test as a gauge of my current standard. Nonetheless, I hope all my good friends can do well in their tests too =p WE'RE SOOO GOING TO UNIVERSITY ALRIGHT!!

Today's GP paper was sort of... manageable. Because the teachers had told us the topic that they're focusing on. Read a few articles on Sports some days beforehand. The essay questions came out as expected. The comprehension passage was rather interesting too... Had abit fun doing the summary LOLS... It's the only thing you can seek entertainment with at that particular moment.... Don't blame me for being stupid.

Tomorrow's Chemistry, I'm going to do revision now. Cheerios.

Don't Give Up

This title came from an inspirational song performed by Alicia Keys and Bono. I also want to dedicate this message to Eugene - even if you do not manage to reach your expectations, there's always other opportunities for you to succeed. Anyway, good luck for your Chinese results!!

Today woke up at 6am getting ready to go back VS Choir. Had a soporific PT... which is rather disappointing. Only 6 people wanted to play badminton lol!! The game was ultra-boring and it kind of terminated early... Nathaniel turned to completing his Chemistry assignment, and I tought him a few useful things. The session was fruitful until he left his homework inside a classroom and forgot to take it back!!... The choir practice was quite interesting... I got to see the Sec 1 and 2's sing. Some of them are quite frivolous... partly because they have not been thoroughly imbued with the precious virtue of being disciplined! Lack of punishment in this case... need more physical torments like pumping. The most severe problems were excessive fidgeting and non-stop, rapid-fire chattering. The overall discipline can be improved though... the juniors just need time to mature and ripen into harvestable talents. =)

After choir practice, Eugene, Reuben and me went for lunch @ KFC Parkway. The outlet was apparently suffering from understaffed crisis... Reuben and I queued for like almost 8minutes to get our turn to order food! How atrocious!! And we saw a seemingly young boy working at the counter... looks like the desperate understaffed KFC is turning to exploit child labour to fill up the unwanted vacancies! Just kidding... =x

We talked about Reuben's escapades to ALL of the local polytechics to satisfy his freebie-collecting craze. In the end he passed me 3 nylon bags, each representing 3 different polys LOL! We used them as convenient sitting mats at an ECP beach where we spent our leisure time watching people wakeboarding on the pathetic tiny waves on the receding shoreline and drawing up plans to ridicule Dora and her malicious accomplices! We went to Mcdonalds after seeing that the tide is retreating crazily (the Moon is closest to Earth today) and treat ourselves to quick-desserts. Reuben was like 'dunnoe' what to eat like as if he visited Mcdonalds for the first time of his life! LOLX....

After bading adieu to Eugene at the bus-stop, Reuben and me decided to go Tampines for a walk. It was the usual Tampines Mall... with the usual crowd... and with the usual boredom of shopping there! Reuben had a brief outlook at the JC curriculum when we browsed through the plethora of A Level books, and I think he should continue studying in JC. It's quite promising lol.

It was extremely tiring after venturing out of home for almost half a day! I'm on the verge of dozing off right now and topple off my shaky wooden chair.... Sayonara!!!!!!

Major Boring

I'm hoping to return back to school ASAP!! The boredom of staying at home and facing the digital pixels is killing me... During this period of involuntary confinement I got addicted to Facebook - sort of the new ' Dota '... it's kind of no life doing virtual socialising... spending your time cyber-fishing/updating stupid photos/posting irrelevant comments. All this nits and bits helped me to past time though... at least it's better than doing nothing!

I'm really looking forward to visit VS Choir again on Saturday. Hope to have a nice weekend before school starts. =D

Sunburn Chronicle

Today went cycling with Jonathan Chan and Tengwei @ East Coast Park. It was 2-hours long, and I forgot that the sun is oh-so-gloriously bright, that it almost charred my skin. My arms are feeling the lingering heat while I'm typing this post. LOL!! I've also sustained a butt-sore from sitting on the tiny bicycle-seat... It was sooo unbearable ! I really pity those professional cyclists... it's a miracle they don't have deformed butts ! [I'm wish I can be in Artic right now... the heat is killing me]

After the hellish cycle-ride, we went to Hong Kong Cafe to have our well-deserved lunch. [Gelare was just opposite and it was having the usual Tuesday discount!!!] I've ordered a scrumptuous feast that is enough to cover up the fats+calories that I'd lost during that bike trip. It was Curry Brisket with rice, Siew Mai, tender fried squid sprinkled with appetising chilli salt and Mango pudding with Mango Ice-cream. I didn't know I was so ravenous until I could manage to eat everything spick-and-span style! After stuffing my poor stomach with loads of spicy madness, I had an acid reflux, which almost burned my throat away. I guess that taught me a lesson on not to gorge yourself straight after exercising!!

Time pasts so totally fast when you're having fun, and it's only 5days left to the opening of Hell!! I've gotta rush my Maths extra assignment to keep up my standard in Maths !! LET'S ACE OUR EXAMS, FOLKS!!

=p =p

Food Craze

I don't know what's getting into me these days... my inspirations and interests are all in a total spasmodic insanity. Got addicted to DotA since the last 2 weeks... I've to eliminate this choleric habit of being mesmerised by funky online games that left me a traumatising experience when I was in Secondary 2. (I almost fail to meet the promotional criteria due to excessive Maple'ing) Luckily, DotA is starting to get boring... and I turn to browsing the wonderous food-recipes at the godly-fantabulous allrecipes.com in bid to spend my leisure time! That gastronomical gourmetish (this is a portmantaeu of gourmet + fetish) struck me in an instant, and I thought of making a lunch for my family the next day. The amateur lunch menu consisted of simple dishes such as Macaroni with cheese, Baked Mashed Potato, Caesar Salad and finally the sweet-tooth killer Strawberry Key Lime Trifle. Although the mashed potato didn't turn out well (the potato was not properly mashed - there were still partially-unchewable chunks of potato left), the whole thing is quite delish... FOR A GREENHORN! BTW, this cooking fascination is also inspired by the triumphant success of the Bread Pudding created by Reuben Su =)

That's all for my revelations in Jan 2009... I'm soo anticipating a good timetable =o

New Hopes in 2009

Year 2009, means 2008 and all the tormenting unhappiness are gone. (top on the Unwanted list are PW + things that require trashy teamwork which ought to be banished forever) I guess 2009 isn't going to be such a 'fantabulous year' either... there're going to be 1) release of PW grade 2) a fatal exam-tide invasion 3) 1 more year of staying in 08S09. I just hope that my classmates will be more enthusiastic in their academical pursues... Yes I wanna move on to University no matter what!! Now that all those idiotic time-wasting projects are completely done with, I can allocate more studying time. Also, there will be an upcoming SYF competition, so time-management is a must. I think I'll die in the midst of hecticeness and putting up with other people's pathological behavioural maladjustments... Talking about whores and butches, I'm not going to give any face to whoever is pissing me off. No one will jeopardise my precious plan to get an admission into University!! Yes.. so to those potential troublemakers and jokers... watch what you're doing. [draws a fine line between real friends and pretend-to-be-friends]

Since year 2008 isn't a great year... I'm not going to present any valedictorians or longwinded corny speeches on who I'm grateful to... -.- I just want to wish all of my good friends only, promising success in all their future endeavours. Bonne Chance! [it's the baugettey French]
