Presenting Mania!

Recently, 1E5 had the chance to go for the Swiss Science Challenge. I don't know why, but Mr Sha just had to choose me as the group leader. Thus, I had no choice but to go. It's a long story...from the prelimaries to the semi-finals to the finals...but at the finals we were the only Sec 1 team left. Mr Sha said that we represented the Sec 1s. Anyway, I'm going to present on stage again about the novel "Titanic". It;s a great book, and I'm confident about tomorrow.
Anyway I need to rush a script so that's all for now.

Execution

Well, today has been a stressful day for me. First thing in the morning, I had to prepare a presentation for Literature on "Shrek", and it was supposed to be 15mins but my group took twice the time needed. So the teacher was kind of annoyed. Presenting, this time, was slightly different as we had to "teach" a character which   we were assigned to. My group, being outstanding, had two characters. So of course, more work, which leads to more things to prepare. During presentation, I was very worried of losing the audience and was desperately adding stupid stuff into the presentation, and I mentioned Hong Xuan being a braggart. Of course, that had it's consequences. It was a tense atmosphere as we did our work, and when we finally finished, we were so relived. And much for  "30-min-presentation", we only got 18/25. Mdm Sherifah pointed out a few flaws in our presentation, and we accepted the constructive critism by her.
Immediately after this, we had a Maths test. Imagine being thrown with such things to do, naturally we would not be in the state of mind for a test. So not fair. Life is cruel. Anyway, the Maths test was set at a ridiculously high level and I could not really attmept the questions in the right state of mind, such that 8.5 x 0.6 could not be solved. So now, I'm being optimistic that I can get good results. But what's done cannot be undone, so just enjoy the freedom, until the results come out.

Fatality-> humiliation.

Today, during PE, I fell down. Actually it's more accurate to say I was shoved down by a guy called Ridzuan.
Injury summary:
Grazed knees (x2)
Elbow bleeding (x1)
Very mildly injured palm (x1)
Plaster--> (x4) (depending)
Broken skin (x4)
Recovered (x1)
Skid across ground: 1m.
Now I have to skip ET once again...people will think that I'm a slacker. And just when my stamina increase and I can get first. Darn.
Anyway, after PE was Home Econs. It was really fun, but because my knee was still bleeding, my apron has a patch of blood on the left knee area. Making a chicken patty from scratch was so fun...I wished I made a bigger piece with 4 times the amount of egg (I put 3x the actual amount today) and ate it in front of teacher. Plus I forgot that today was Day 6. I thought it was Day 1. So I forgot my Chinese textbook. Haha. So of course I got mini-lecture from teacher. But I'm used to it already, and I am enduring for 3 more years before I drop Chinese as a subject. I should be taking either French or Spanish, depending on opportunites and open doors. Back to the point, I finally noticed who is going on 29th for the Geography field work. Only 6 boys. 10+ girls. Thorn amongst the roses. Well, this is a pretty long post compared to previous ones, and I think I'll stop here. Got other stuff to do. Like studying for Maths test in 2 days' time.

Happy day...

Today has been a most sastifying day with little homework and plenty of time unlike CCA days. Especially since the NJRC (National Junior Robotics Competition) is coming soon. But afterwards will be very relaxing, of course. Well, today there's not much to post about, but I finished both presentations that I was stuck with for weeks--- Literature, Geography. The sense of sastifaction is so nice. :)
Well, now it's time for my daily exercise.

Water rocket catastrophe

Today, I also feel very drained. Too drained to write a proper post on this blog. Haha. Anyway, the second part for our "Water Rocket Enrichment" was held today and the construction of the rocket alone proved to be most confusing and the instructor did more harm than help, in my opinion. I am from Science and Technology Club and I am expected to give a above-average standard of work. But I can't blame the person I worked woth. He did a lot better than me. I feel like an epic fail. The rocket was something that I had never tried before and it was a much harder challenge than I expected. So I screwed up. So sad. And I lost to my rival in Sci and Tech. Make me even worse. To top everything all up, we kept having water fights and my gut was sprayed with water FIVE times. And the water splasign on the ground caused more mud to splash out and my white pants became even more dirtier than usual. And I fell down at the stupid wet loor near the watercooler. Made my pants even more dirtier. I can't take it and changed my pants.
Now I feel very sleepy so I think I'm stopping my post here.

Debating Class...

Today I finally had my long-awaited debating class. It's been close to a month since the announcement was gave and it seems a long time indeed for me as I have constantly anticipated the debating class. During the class, I learnt the proper way to approach debating as a profession instead of my normal "argument only" incorrect style of debating. They showed us and explained in great depth about the arrangement of debates and has been an eye-opener indeed. Nah, not really. Just being sacrastic to make my blog post longer. Anyway, we had a mock debate and I was unfortunately chosen by my classmates to be a debator in my first class. Wow. I think I will be pinpointing more people to be chosen the next time round.
I don't think I will go in depth about what we learnt as that would take a considerable amount of time. I also have homework to catch up on. So I think I end this blog post.

-I dont know what to name this title-

Today has been a better day and I think I'm getting used to the school curriculum again. The programs today required me to bring a more-than-average amount of books to school. Therefore I left some below my desk in the class. I was supposed to have Chinese remedial today but the teacher was absent, thus I could skip the class for this week. These have all been ridiculous comments.
Well, tomorrow, my class will be having a water rocket project and being from Sci and Tech, I think they expect me to know a lot more which I think I actually don't. And I only shot it once before. Well, anyway no matter how it's going to be a load of fun. And getting wet.

Very tired,,,

Today's Sci and Tech CCA had early dismissal. Thus the Sec 1s went home at an approximate of 1/2h earlier. However, I'm still taking time getting used to waking up early in the morning again. So now I'm feeling extremely sleepy.
Today's maths lesson is the most boring one I've ever had in a perid of 10 years. The teacher teaching us seems to think that we are primary 1s and does things in a extremely slow manner which eventually led to the whole class being bored and doing their own things. The teacher doesn't even seem to care. The English teacher also had a small change of heart and started having mild humor in her lessons.
But today was quite relaxed though. I can't think of anything to make me tired.

Back to school...

Well..finally back to school. I don't know if I hate it or like it. Seems that I do both. Anyway its good to be back in school with all my friends. Relives the time when there is bonding among the class. For today, it has been very tiring as I'm still getting used to waking up early. I wake up late assuming I even wake up. Anyway today's to-do-list is longer than the usual as I have quite a few things taking up my time currently.
Well, there have been new experiences in school to day as we had Geography and Home Economics classes for the first time. Home Econs is quite a domestic subject, while Geography can easily be related to Science. First Goegraphy lesson and we're already starting to have homwork. Yippee. I'm being sacrastic.
Anyway I think a new term deserves a fresh start and I'm getting 6 points for L1R5 no matter what. Getting 7 points is very annoying.

Class gathering

Well...it's been some time since I last posted. Making use of my holiday time and spent time mistly gaming and outdoors. Last week, I had a class gathering at a BBQ party, near South View. It was not a very activity packed event, but the class bonding was the priority so the activities was not the problem. However, later on were some games which started off as a few people playing because they were bored, but then half the class started playing. Anyway eveyone went home happy and it rained just as we went back,
It was a great time and I look forward to another class gathering!

Epic sucking...

Sigh...today one of the worst days I ever face. Today, I wanted to go CCK, ended up taking the train to Ten Mile Junction. Before that, I realised I forgot something and dashed back home. After that, due to the fact that I was already late for my activities, I reached the location 5 minutes late. After that, I unfortunately dropped my bag in the toilet cubicle and it's all wet. And I found that I forgot many other things as well. I just hope tomorrow will be better.

Holidays begin...

Holidays finally starts! Can start to relax and slack already. Even though got quite a bit of homework it's still not impossible to finish. However...I'm starting to get bored...kind of which school started. But then, the holidays is a good break though! Preparing to go for a holiday overseas soon.

The happiest time of the term...

Well, one more term has passed. Now we're already in the center of the year and the JUNE HOLIDAYS ARE FINALLY HERE!!!!!
Today the teachers and students were both equally happy to welcome the end of the term. All the teahcers gave very little homework compared to primary school (most surprisingly) and all of us were slacking away during class time. The teahcer also didn't mind. Up to this point of time, only 2h 15min to the end of school term. Finally. Although school does have its fun times, I think that we would definitely need a break from our usual lifestyle of school and homework choinging. Going on a holiday soon, will elborate later on. :D

"Happy" Filing Day!!!

Wheee...tomorrow is "Filing Day". The most untidy, irritating, hair-pulling, disasterous and catastrophic day amongst all of the school term. Nothing can beat the teacher's anger when chasing homework. What's more, hunting down the rotten pieces of crappy worksheets to hand up is seriously worse than going through SA1 again. Anyway I think that many people are going to get screwed with the teacher and than the whole classic story of teacher-hunt-student begins...
Up to now, I do not remember handing up a complete file to the teacher. I'm screwed. Dead if teacher knows.

Monday, May 24, 2010

Bored...

Sigh...holidays are like only a few more days away. Even in the holidays I can't relax... have to revise and read ahead of the syllabus. Anyway for now it's slacking time during school, but then there's still the tension of studying now. Can't really put my head back and relax. But then, a few days more won't matter...i think. Now it's about going through the momentum and getting a good break afterwards...

2nd movie

Wow...2 movies in a week. I can't believe it.
Today I just watched Shrek, but before that I ust watched Iron Man 2. Before the movie, there was a presentation about a comepetition for inventing. It was so fun. Anyway before the movie I kept throwing popcorn at vitorio and missed epically...lol.
Later, I came back home late at around 8, although I was supposed to be back at 6.30. Maybe it's because I got lost once finding my way to the bus stop. The city is just too big. -.- Anyway, I came back ome feeling very tired. Fortunately I bought a latte while I was there. The movie was also quite entertaining.

Celebration!

Today was my friend's birthday. To celebrate his birthday, we went to Causeway Point to watch the movie Iron Man 2. He was so nice to invite a few others and me to the party. In the end, free lunch and movie. After that, we went to his house and we played water bombs and had a mini party.:D Afterwards we were all soaking wet and the way i had to rush to meet them is seriously... nevermind. Anyway he treated us to lunch at Pizza Hut and then ended up rushing up the escalator to reach the cinema on the top floor. Why must cinemas always be on the top floor?
After everything, we left and prepared for tommorow, when we were watching a complimentary screening of Shrek.

Birthday shopping

Today is a tiring day.
I went to Lot 1 at first to get a birthday present for one of my friends. We were going to celebrate at the movies and my friends and I thought of getting him a birthday present. Therefore we went to Comics Connection to get a gundam and a Naruto keychain after a long time deciding which was like...eternity.
Afterwards we went to BBP to check for other things to buy but then found out that there was nothing better. Wasted trip. I was then supposed to meet my friends for a certain project but because I went to buy the presents I was late and when they were about to leave I came. Another wasted trip. I got double-pwned.

Results of SA1...

Today is a happy day.

The History and Literature SA1 results were released today and I'm quite satisfied with my results--- 1st in class for History, 2nd for Literature. Before the results were released today, there was a nice run for ET today. It was about to rain and the weather was chilly and nice, we also ran the 1st 4 rounds without sweating :D Sigh, still didn't manage to get into top 5 runnners of the class. But still the running was refreshing for me, the competing amongst friends (or enemies) was very motivating and fun. :D

Exam over.... or is it???

Sigh... it seems like the exam is never going to be over. Just after the history SA1 exam we already have a bunch of reakin' tests flying at us like Maths, Science... etc. but then i remembered having a test like just... 2 weeks ago! What type of school system is this? No time to rest leh.... lol.
Anyway now I just realised I have a test tomorrow, but I revise consistently so it's okay to me... and good luck to all 1E5ians tomorrow...:D

Preparation for exams

Phew... finally can on com. It's only 8 more hours to my science test and I'm doing some last minute preparation. I'm not really stresed about the exam, but then it's good to give my all I've got and get high marks. After all, personal pride is at stake. Anyway it's quite late now so I can't post much and I wish good luck to all my 1E5 brethen.

Problems of Society

Well... 2nd post today. :D
Today, I just realised that my class faced a lot of common problems society faced today. Just like obession, relationship between people of the same genders (lesbianism, gayism) and disregard for laws. However, what causes them to be considered as problems? Is it really a difficulty? In what way?
Well, something is considered a problem when it goes against the concepts of our life. But then, are there really any concepts which our morals can be depended upon? What is truly right and wrong? Can we define the origin of right and wrong? If everone led by their own concepts, then which one is the true and correct concept?

These are some of the thoughts which I have. Most people use religion to define right and wrong but then, where does religion originate from?

1st post

Well, this is my first post since I created my blog a few days back. One of the purpose of creating a blog was so that i could have something else to do and use this blog to link to my class blog so I can post on it. Anyway, this should be the worst time for me to engage in cyber entertainment as exams are looming around the corner and I need to study hard for my exams. that's all I have to say, and i come to the end of my 1st blog post.
Logging out. :D
