New Lows Tuesday, October 27, 2009

Getting kinda tired of some who just can't seem to think or something. I would say it to be more of like 'surprising boredom'.

PW ends in around 2 weeks time. After which, if i'm not wrong is the ominously dubbed 'holiday lectures', which i doubt anyone is looking forward to since the school can't seem to stop rushing through the syllabus such that we can have more quote-unquote revision time. But, what's the use of having more revision time if at first we don't understand the content well/perfectly?

Personally, i don't get whats the thing with the media's constant obsession with Ris Low, which often results in new entries for the English,

I meant Singlish dictionary. On one hand, they have gotten too far. On the other, she has.

I don't really get why people use her words so much when they themselves mocked her so much. Somewhat hypocritical, IMO, unless they are mocking her, in which case is a joke which has outlived its purpose and comedic appeal.

A beautiful disaster Monday, October 26, 2009

OP dry run was a beautiful disaster.

The group was more or less, totally unprepared for the majority, and the slides had not much of coherence. Q & A was not that good, i had like a pause for eternity just trying to think of something to say.

First run?

Think again. The real OP is next friday. Yes. First day. One of the first groups. Moderators coming? Unknown. Prepared? Not really.

And whats more theres still I & R, which i am totally clueless about. Thanks for canceling PW lecture last minute.

Though, gotta admit. The impending end to PW is near. In around 2 more weeks. We will be free like the birds in India, freed from the cages of men to allegedly bring them luck.

And after that; what's to come?

More tennis? 'Enrichment/Supplementary' lessons?

WR due tomorrow!

Editing like crazy!

Cutting word count like crazy!

Hiatus until saturday like crazy!

Skeletons in the closet Tuesday, October 20, 2009

Went to the dentist yesterday, which was the first checkup since sec 3. Checked awhile and the dentist said that she needed to do 6 fillings. Yes. No typo.

6

There was also some cleaning by the dentist. Sparkly clean i suppose.

So after all the pain and suffering experienced by my darling molars, i went home with a sore throat. And i could hardly sleep at night. And when i woke up this morning i felt like crap. Went to school in the morning and had some degree of flue - runny nose and the sort. Then decided to see a doctor at night. He told me that it was the drilling from the teeth filling that caused the germs to 'fly' into my throat, causing the 'redness' he sees in my throat.

So much for customs and spot checks.

WR is going to be due soon. This Friday.

I am going to (title) at end of the year.

Post Promo Activity: WR Friday, October 16, 2009

Had a maths lecture at 10:25, but school started at 7:30.

My group decided to chiong WR before then, chiong chiong chiong. After 2 periods of maths lecture, chiong again. All the way until around 1+PM, where i decided to stay to do WR whilst they went off to interview someone (Cos we changed proposals). 30 mins later, they returned, and said they weren't able to interview that guy cause, apparently, we didn't follow protocol. The irony is that we have been waiting for a reply to our email for several days already.

When they came back, i found out i wasn't able to save the edited draft! 30mins of hard work gone down the drain. Was so scared that what i edited would all be gone, but found out only later that it was the references section which was not there. Lucky i had copied it to somewhere else already.

Was seriously a mad rush since our ST just returned us our previous draft around 2-3 days ago. Adding to that, Monday is a holiday in lieu, and our WR file isn't small enough to be sent through email, which just had to finish it by today.

To all those with Promos finished - Have fun, while you still can.
