MT O Lvl

If i dont score for this MT O lvl paper,
it wud be sooo...

..
wasted.

rarely you see a paper whereby
u know the meanings of all 3 words given for
"create a sentence" section.

and i think i got the peribahasa right la.
the rest should be QUITE okay.

but Paper 1.
what a pity.
i couldnt concentrate.
but in the end, came up with a story which i think
should be fair rated.
i DID include an idiom.

but my dialogue totally sucks.
i know it.
i just didnt wanna do formal letter
cuz it would be even worse.

now must depend on L.compre and oral exam.
1 or 2 more months?

Saturday, May 26, 2007

finally i'll be able to study.

June Holidays!!

well main highlight of today was
JC visit.

they didnt announce bus 6 was leaving early.
i was lucky enuff to catch it.
only in the bus i found out that
we were heading to Tampines JC.

campus is big
huge population of students.
lots of student initiated stuff.
auditoriums
tennis courts,
a JC indeed

i got a fair share of ppl staring at me
saying things like
"omg so short"
yea yea i know

but the thing is
every1 there seems friendly.

the most interesting part was
having dat Kim girl from Kids Central
as our guide around the school.

yea. quite a surprise.

the tour was real good and all.
gave me a good understanding of life in JC

but still, i dont know where to go.

anyway. MT O lvl paper is on MONDAY
its almost unreal!

Tough Luck

Yesterday,
Sustaining Development chapter for SS
got cancelled.

Today,
Business & Logistics got cancelled.
alrite i get it already.
so stop kay?
plzz.
whoever's playing this prank on me.

talk about luck,
currently watching Deal or No Deal.
today's contestant is kinda.. erm.. eccentric.
haha. perfect personality to a game show though.

banker has offered him $22,000
considering the odds,
i'd advise him to take it.

but still, he still got that fair chance of
getting $250,000.
so i'll leave it to him.

anyway i enjoyed watching Freedom Writers just now.

Business and Logistics

If you want something u gotta go for it.
something i learnt from Sufi.
u cant go somewhere just cuz ur friends are there.

Though i couldnt get into the Accountancy career talks,
i managed to get out of Entrepreneur
and into Business & Logistics.
which is closer to the management kind of stuff,
dat im eyeing.

yea yea
wads an idiot like me doing aiming for
an 11 point course.
well i still care to believe dat i'll make it

^^
i really hope so.

anyway,
something must be against me
ok its my fault for only studying ONE chapter of SS.
but still.
i was pretty sure this chapter would come out.
and if it did, id be the luckiest guy in skool

i was the luckiest guy in skool.
only for the first few mins.

"Cancel the question 3 on your paper
and replace it with the new question 3 provided"

Original Question 3: Sustaining Development
Sustaining Development: chapter i studied

so much for luck.

LDC 2007

well as i type this entry,
the Part Cs (Sec 3 NCC) are going through what seems
to be the most important camp in their NCC years.

Leadership Development Course.
its a yearly kind of camp
for Part C Cadets who are by now,
well on their way to becoming NCOs.

its kinda weird.
but i dont feel as if there was a 1 year gap
between my batch's course, and theirs.
I wont exaggerate by saying dat it felt as if it was only yesterday.
lets just keep things simple and say; time flies.

LDC, is only a 3 day 2 night camp,
compared to the MUCH longer Annual Camp in March.
(its just 1 day longer but what you do in AC is much more physically and mentally tiring compared to LDC)
But in LDC, you are always under pressure.
Your future appointment is at stake.
Your individual performance determines the future you will have in NCC.
Whether you will become one of the big guns, or simply not.

For some, this means everything.
And for sure, i see a bunch of such people in the current Part C.
I've been second in charge of them for the year.
And i dont have much time left.
I regret i have not put enough effort into shaping
this group of ppl into the versatile leaders
i visioned during my pre-NCO life.
What a pity.

But thinking again, the deciding factor is not me.
Neither is it the officers or the old boys.
Its them.

Who will rise up to the occasion?
Who will crumble in the face of adversity?
Who will put himself before others?
Who has the ability to solve problems on his feet?
Who has the commanding influence over the others?

only time will tell.

Finally able to post properly

being able to post properly again,
imma start by saying that

I HATE MOCK EXAMS.

why does it have to last soo long.
by now i wud have started playing more soccer alr.
of course, not for long.

"There will be no Mid Year Examinations as we want our students to be more relaxed and take more responsibility on their own studying, whereby they know best," or something like dat.

weeks later,

"As there is no MYE, we are afraid that you will not study for your subjects so that is why we are preparing the mock exams"

Seeing how relaxed the other levels are with their MYE already over,
im GREEN with envy..

of course, there are benefits.
due to a part of mock exams being after the June Hols,
students will put in more effort in studying during this period,
that is usually put to waste.

well, however it is, an exam is still an exam.
i think dat makes alot of sense.

the Cup is back at Old Trafford where it belongs!
It may not be the year of the treble but come on! Go for a Double!

Ronaldo scores a penalty..
..while Van der Sar saves one


of course, i learned a thing or 2 from the documentary, The Kallang Wave.
ive been supporting Man Utd but i havent been putting much attention
to our very own local football!

so i decided to look back and recall some of those priceless moments
the day we beat Malaysia by penalties and went to the finals


if you feel lazy, just watch 1:00 onwards
the atmosphere could kill. i swear.


yea and for some reason i cant blog properly

MAY DAY MAY DAY

ITS MAY DAY! MAY DAY!
and i got...


....TAGGED

by Tiffany

So now im supposed to share 6 weird things about me.

lets go!

1) Tends to lose control when computer playing games, especially when losing and frustrated. Scolding vulgarities to the the monitor screen is something common at home.

2) Even after spending 16 years in this house, i still feel scared when all the lights are off and i have to make a trip to the toilet.

3) Can fall asleep very easily in the weirdest positions. Slept while standing during sec 2.

4) Is being forgetful something weird? Lost 2 handphones + 1 more lost by BENNY, 1 wallet and much more. There has been signs whereby ppl around me start to become forgetful when they start criticizing on how forgetful i am. SO BEWARE.

5) Doesnt like getting bday presents actually. But maybe this is changing!!

6) Yea i always fall asleep in class. U guys think i enjoy it rite. Well truth is, with a few exceptions, i actually HATE sleeping in class. Its the reason why i get bad results.

there u go.

so now im supposed to tag 6 ppl.
but due to lack of time i wont ( ;

so i'll let other ppl spread this taggy thingy.
