quite literally, bleeding (almost) to death.
and smiling widely is (very literally) painful
saturday mornings are like one of the best times ever
just like sunshine
I rewatch movies. sappy movies and revision of geography make a great mix.
Reed Bennett: There's this girl.
Oversized Baggage Agent: Oh don't tell me, that'll take the fun out of guessing. Let's see, this is gonna be a tough one, there's a very pretty girl and she's about to get on a big airplane and if you don't stop her, she'll never know how you really feel.
Reed Bennett: Not exactly.
Oversized Baggage Agent: What am I missing?
Reed Bennett: If she gets on the plane, she's gonna find out the hard way that the guy that she thinks she's in love with is a spineless lying creep!
Oversized Baggage Agent: That's no good.
Reed Bennett: No, it is no good. And I can't let that happen. Because this girl, she is great! She's like... like sunshine. Everything is better when she's there. I can't stand the idea of some jerk hurting her, I just can't. I can't.
Bah. Revision is plodding and chugging along (more of the plodding along) switching over to the timed paper + topical revision mode lol, later than the other chaps. not enough time to work on only topical revisions alr. so just whack alr lah.
Played captains ball just now. the chaps are very very hospitable and friendly lol (Y)
aiya. go sleep already la. maths tomorrow maths tomorrow.
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest--and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.
Thursday, August 11, 2011 @ the conclusion to a day.
400 lol.
Not a bad Wednesday. Went out wiht the guys to celebrate Weekiats (and mine too, i guess) at benten@jp. gigantic ice cream tub for-the-win (Y)
tried to work on stuff. not bad progress on acjc paper (mysteriously easy though.) need to polish up on memorisation of facts though.
Was pretty annoyed when Mr Lum told me he didn't receive my math assignments, I thought that I had handed them in (he was asking for 3 assignments. two of them i thought i submitted already) Realised today after much rummaging that nope. I really do owe him those assignments - they were caught in the sweat-drenching that my foolscap pad took during the railway visit. so they're pretty worn out and aged (the paper is actually yellowish and the ink running, when put next to my pretty new foolscap pad) . Very malu and buhaoyisi to mr lum, so well yeah. have to apologize to him next lesson. it sucks when such bad cockups happen.
stupid mistake was made during the math test. and its infuriating.
back to the hole tomorrow, to reemerge on friday.
blah.
400.
taskings thursday:
1) Wake up early to go school. No bike, so bus 11 (legs lol)will have to be fast, or bus 178 or bus 30 have to be there.
2) Pass the hard disk to WanYi
3) Retrieve the GP reading package...finished it already though.
4) Do Geog 3 and 4, Finish up the math assignments (i'm stuck at places). and apologize to mr lum
count the number of uniforms i have. it seems that some are missing (4 total)
long day tomorrow.
the standard vanilla, the daily grind
This morning started in hell, neck deep at least. I drowned somewhere about 750, only to huiguangfanzhao later when the first GP lesson started. Life in the dark is pretty much its dreary, usual self - taking its toll on the mind and stuff. The milder cousin of the black dog is also becoming a slightly more prominent fellow.
100 days left, 2400 hours. 800 will be spent for sleeping, 300 for miscellaneous stuff, leaving about 1300 for studying. The idea here is to notch it into a punishing routine, basically to catch back up from where I left off in year 4. Cover up rule is annoyingly something that needs to be revised.
Can't survive without sleep. A day or two is fine, but it isn't particularly healthy for the cycle. I start to fall asleep spontaneously once I hit the third day without substantial sleep. 8 hours a day, try first la.
Trimmed the grass today, and the sound was as nice as ever.
Bought a set of those transparent pocket things. Urban sprawl around the desk is getting a little too extensive.
Did the wrong paper for physics today. I thought we were going thru Raffles so I did it over the weekend. Turned out we were working on River Valley's instead. Ended up not having much to ask during the lesson.
Chemistry was a similar disaster. Though the JJC paper was complete, I missed out on the PJC one (they do have a nice logo). As it happened, I collected the wrong set from Mr Azmi's pigeon hole. Ms Lu looked disappointed and full of dismay. I hate it when that happens in class, when I don't get work done. Can't let her down.
Geography was pretty much standard stuff; Mr Ng his usual chirpy self. Geography is about the only topic that makes complete sense to me. It's so... logical. Maths by contrast, is frequently illogical.
It's not that I've anything against the subjects, it's just that I find no purpose in the memorization (and pretty much an inability to do so too). Organic, Periodicity, Vector trigo, some elements of Calculus - these require plenty of work.
Tomorrow is Tuesday. Physics and Geography in the morning, a 2/3 hour break, Maths and Maths consultations with Mr Lee and I'm done. Mr Lee is one of the best teachers around I suspect. Least he doesn't seem to be out trying to put you down when you're doing your maths. He works super tirelessly, and well, he likes teaching (he gets really excited about maths) it's teachers like him that give me hope (why can't he just teach my class math too?) Not to say that I don't trust Mr Lum, but sometimes it's worrying. (though it was Mr Lum who sorta assigned Mr Lee to teach me, not too sure about the entire going-ons of the matter, so well can't comment) sigh
NDP rehearsal tomorrow afternoon about 340 onward. All the year 4s have been called to go for a fieldtrip, shall leave by 620, so i can wash up and get some chow before going back into the dark. Need to clarify with YiMing what he needs me to do there.
It's abit sad that I keep not going for the 2E outing stuff (sorry la jiayi, everytime never reply your sms, end up you don't notify me anymore ><)
blah.
my brain is about flat now, most everything is up. 2325, about time.
goodnight
