that fat E spoils everything.
seriously you know, no matter how much i've improved (or how much luck i had) they just dont see it alrite. its the E that they see. then they go on and on and on telling me i should seek help this that. must go and ask if i dont know. that my bro,
masters in chem e is at home for me to ask.
have you thought how i would feel?! did you realise how much pressure ive been carrying since the day i decided to stay on in sa?! and they just add on more bulk.
"so are you prepared for ur As?"
"no of cos not."
"sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo?"
"preparing la."
and the whinning just goes on and on and on.
why?! you keep saying this is my life. all that i've studied is for my own future. so cut the crap alrite. i get it.

said i'll blog bout my results when i got back all my papers. surprised that im blogging today when i obviously didnt go to sch today and there's no econ lesson today as well? hehe. my dearest and ever lovable, adorable, fantastic awesome sa econ tuition mates gave me the biggest surprise gift today when i walked into the room. with nic announcing my econ grade, n chingtung n leanne too shortly after. tk too! hehe. thanks peeps! bestest surprise ever.
[im gonna sound like a total bitch now boasting bout her results if you continue to read on. so
pls stop here rite now. im just keeping a reference as a form of motivation to keep me going for the next 5 weeks. (: ]
GP - B3
it was supposed to be B4 but the school moderated by adding 3 points so i jumped a grade. anw that isnt the point. im really surprised i was able to maintain my score for my essay esp when i came out of the exam venue with a sunken heart, knowing i repeated my points. glad i was able to pull it off. whew. my AQ saved me for my p2. that was the only thing i was confident of. lol. it was also the first time Pang praised me and i was ard. haha. oh well, its just luck.
CHEM -
E D
i refuse to admit i got an E. LOL. i missed by half a mark to get my D can?! how sickening is that?! groans. ms tan is real strict this time round. ahh... oh well. not that its a bad thing anw. but its just half a mark and she doesnt want to give it to me la! damn. haha. but i think her words of encouragement is definitely worth more than that half mark. "i know you can do much better." somehow, somewhere in her sweet voice, she gave assurance.
MATH - B
just made it. whew. william lee was telling me "dont tell anyone ur grade." i didnt understand what he meant until i compared my p2 marks with p1. wts! i did so much better for p2 la! when the norm is that ppl score higher for p1. haha. im just weird la. but oh well, im not really surprised cos i didnt have a good rest the night bef p1 thanks to no.2. -.- though i would love to get an A, im quite satisfied la. A for my As! wahahaha.
ECON - B
shut up! can you believe this?! i must be dreaming. crap! first time in my life i scored above E for econs! omg. this good news is so unrealistic. i predicted an E la. since i didnt do really well for my essays. (i failed 2 of them la.) n i failed my case study too. all by a margin though. but my mcq pulled me high up i guess. its either a 26 or 27. wts?! i knew i had 3 wrongs for mcq but huh?! ah... haha. i still cant register it in my head. screams!
alrite. thats the end of everything. 50 pts. a great boost. wee... anyhows, this is just prelims. i can easily flop my As if i lose my momentum or become cocky and thus complacent. peeps, if you havent done as well as you expected, dont fret and despair yup? like what i said, its just prelims. quotes daniel "this is the last time for you to flop." haha. so... yes! let that be ur motivation alrite! dont wanna see u guys in such a bad mood alr. (: and to those who had done well, congrats! cont to work hard k! ur efforts will pay off, like they have for prelims.

i feel like a total moron now. how was i supposed to believe when you lied to me so many times. great. and this is the only time i didnt 'fall' for it. no better timing.
dont try surprises on me. it always backfires.
why am i so dumb? if only my dad told me when he saw it outside our house ytd night or smth. like why will i leave smth on the dining table? mom, you so dont know me.
it should have dawned on me when my mom kept prompting me bout the zara bag earlier. why didnt i check it out? and my bro hid it real nicely under his suit. WOW. how complicated can things ever get.
im an idiot. seriously. initially, i had no math fys (fyi:
five
year
series) now i have 2 identical sets, staring right in front of me. gosh. someone, kill me.
6:32 PM
i found the book! woohoo! so to those angels out there who were willing to lend me a hand (or rather, book. hur.) thank you! its alrite. i have it alr. photocopied version. hehe.
besides, i preferred it photocopied. asked my mom to separate all papers so that when i go for consultation, the load will be lighter. but she called to tell me she printed single-sidedly. omg. haha. OH WELL. beats having nth from the start rite?
oh yes. big thank you to ker! received his sms the night i posted the previous entry. WHEW. cant thank you enough. haha. he passed me the book ytd. and while we were in the midst of mugging + chatting at mos, we met his
mj friend. oops. hope nth bad will happen huh. if she happens to know bout ytd (choy), im most willing to clarify. haha.
off to sch now to collect my econ pp. lets hope chua will give them back today. if not im wasting my time. -.-

anyone has the book,
GCE A Level Mathematics 5 Year Series from 2001-2005 or know where to find anymore stock for that book pls help me purchase it first! your kindness and help will be most appreciated. if not, anyone who has the book, pls be kind enough to lend it to me for photocopying!
im desperate k. saw the book at popular in sch this morn. contemplated. after a few hours. that few books were gone! HUH?! damn it. there were even more chem books than the math ones and all math ones were wiped out ok. crap! why did i hesistate?! just buy la! groans.
headed to je popular to search. gone. search using their system for all the Popular bookstores in sg. NONE. went to Big Bookshop at clementi. sold out. clementi bookstore. "sorry we dont sell them." SCREAMS.
walked the whole of je central to find a bloody photocopying shop that can photocopy my bro's lib book in time. DONT HAVE. (there was the kodak shop but wts?! 10c for first 10pages, 5c for the rest?!) the book was thick alrite. grr.
got all frustrated while trying to go to the right platform to take the train back to clementi. felt like an idiot. walking up and down the stairs bef realising i was originally at the
correct side. how dumb could i get? and what is wrong with people who refuse to let people alight first bef getting onto the train?! its not as if the train will leave w/o them. what happened to courtesy? worse, they
snailed in ok. if i didnt get out in time, i'd have wasted even more time taking one stop back.
at least my efforts were sorta paid off when i found a kodak shop round the corner in which a kind lady offered to shrink 2 pages into 1 and allowed me to print one page as a sample. can only collect it tonite at 10 or tmr morn. oh well. beats collecting it all the way at je tmr and paying more.
dont judge me. im not who you depict to be. dont blame me for smth i couldnt forsee. neither could you.dont stretch me. im not a rubber band. dont be ignorant of that tiny speck of shadow i make. maybe im not in the pic anw. more reasons to have rooftops on repeat mode.

rain rain rain. when will it stop? its freezing the hella out of me, despite the comfort of my
pink le coq jacket from pat. [hey dude, where've u been?! havent heard from you since man!]
not in the mood to study. why?! crap. its the final day of my prelims. last push bef it all ends and i hear my verdict once again. read tru my notebook with notes right from atoms and stiochimetry all the way to transition metals but excluding org chem. but i dont feel as though i've read anything. am i making any sense? darn.
org chem is waiting for me downstairs. i was supposed to start that since like 1pm? i resented. where did my motivation go?
mich,thou its only a freakin 1h paper where u simply color 40 blank circles, it freakin makes a diff la! groans. shall attempt to get my butt off the chair after this entry.
sam's blog. as intriguing as always. haha. as simple as you make it sound, its hard to start in the first place. but maybe its cos i never wanted to take that first step. making this as explicit as i can alr. ask me if you dont understand ya?
its too late to go out and study now. besides, im stuck at home with the rain grounding me. grr. wish me luck.

my econs is gone. damn. careless mistakes all over.
cant i just swiggle closed economy? without finishing one of my essays and another one going the wrong way, plus my carelessness for p1, no matter how good my grades are for p2, it'll still be crap. sigh.
i had 15min to spare for p2. why? i dont know. i couldnt fin my essays yet i had more than ample time for case study and drq. sigh. and i thought i can get my triple C this time round. hopes are dashed man..
ironically, i think i'll do better for my math p2 when everyone's saying p2's much tougher. yes, definitely. complex nos. like HUH?! hypothesis testing was much much easier compared to the probability option. pls tell me im dumb. i chose the latter, fearing i'll screw the former up since my foundation is barely there. i hope my ans are right.
what's left. chem p1. sigh. i'd better keep myself wide awake and alert throughout that hour. no more careless mistakes.
[erased. an entry for another time.]

was reading Angels and Demons last nite and i chanced upon this para which i found rather... inspirational? preachy i guess. but anw, its found on page.418 Credits to Dan Brown definitely. it talks bout how Science has some sorta caused more harm to us that it actually seemed to have, both physically and emotionally. read!
Science may have alleviated the miseries of disease and drudgery and provided and array of gadgetry for our entertainment and convenience, but it has left us in a world without wonder. Our sunsets have been reduced to wavelengths and frequencies. The complexities of the universe have been shredded into mathematical equations. Even our self-worth as human beings has been destroyed. Science proclaims that Planet Earth and its inhibitants are a meaningless speck in the grand scheme. A cosmic accident. Even the technology that promises to unite us, divdes us. Each of us is now electronically connected to the globe, and yet we feel utterly alone. We are bombarded with violence, division, fracture, betrayal. Skepticism has become a virtue. Cycnism and demand for proof has become enlightened thought. Is it any wonder that humans now feel more depressed and defeated than they have at any point in human history? Does Science hold anything scarced? Science looks for answers by probing our unborn fetuses. Science even presumes to rearrange our own DNA. It shatters God's world into smaller and smaller pieces in search for meaning... and all it finds is more questions. yup. that basically's it. quite long though. but it has so much volume! ok, i sound lit-ty. HUR HUR. well, maybe not even there yet. anw, isnt what so-and-so (read the book to know who said it) said rather apt in this world? talk bout skepticsm and cynism. haha. alrite guys. hope you enjoy that para above. if you find it boring, sorry. i dont know why but that para made me read it over and over again last nite. and it was like 3+?! so i decided to put it here for my future reference.
things are getting interesting now. eat your words.
