procrastinate.. tats my forte

2008-09-17T22:16:00.002+08:00

more than 1 week since i updated.
feeling terrible lately. can't stop coughing even though i had been eating cough med regularly. nose is also blocked. has been 1 week already. maybe its time to see a doc. feeling the pressure now with 40 plus days left. yet to finish revision for any subject, especially econs which i haven't even touched yet. waiting for chem and maths prelim papers from other schools so i can do some practise. reading and doing lots of phy but i feel that i am not improving.
yea. life sucks.

2008-09-09T22:44:00.002+08:00

my nose has cleared but still having a cough. the neck muscles are abit sore for no reason. eating cough med now hoping the phlegm will come out.
did not do fantastically well for prelims but did not do as bad as i expected. so far my results are A for maths, B for chem and E for phy thx to a calculation error.
i shan't go into details as mostly are abt the same--- carelessness. have been careless since, well, my whole life. kind of hate that and have been trying to correct this flaw. a bit disappointed with the chem and phy marks but i have already expected it. i have to just accept it and work harder for the Alvls.
our batch's results sucks. seriously. all subjects average a passing rate of about 33%. thats the PASSING rate. this means that more than half the cohort failed the subject. thats disastrous. i think it is hard to a lot of the people in the cohort to get to the unis unless they start now and study really really hard.
well... i have to admit i did not study very hard for the prelims, especially for some subjects like econs. will not be suprised if i found out i fail the econs paper tmr.

2008-09-07T21:14:00.002+08:00

doing hw for the last few days. chem alvl paper was tough. not sure how to ans lots of the qnts.
went bballing wif classmates and jianwen on thurs. my arm was still aching abit from the shot the day before. played for a while before it rained. did not play for a long time considering they went to eat when we are playing halfway. after that, we went to tewei's house to hang around. played majong till 4 before going home. slept for a long long time before waking up and do some hw.
went studying the nxt day wif jianwen. did not accomplish much. managed to do some phy revision till work,energy,power only.
beginning to feel exhausted mentally and physically so dropped the idea of going to study. slacked alot on sat.
feeling sick this morning. feels like a sinus infection is coming so dropped the ideas yet again of going to study. drank lots of water and ate lots of strepsils. managed to clear most of the mucus out and feel a lot better though still suffering from a mild headache.
yea. sch is starting tmr. less than 2 months to alvls. hope i can buck up for chem phy and econs.

2008-09-03T12:53:00.002+08:00

kana poked by a needle 2 times in 3 days. first was on tues when my dad asked me to go check for immunity of hep a and hep b. the doc drew a vial of blood for a blood test. got the results ready last night and i went to the them today. found out i did not haf immunity against hep a and hep b so i have to take 3 shots, one today, one nxt month and one another half year ltr. so yea, i am getting trypanophobic. check wiki if u dunno wat that means :)

2008-09-02T21:49:00.002+08:00

quite a while since i updated so i decided to do a long post on wat i did the past few days.

thurs was my last paper: phy paper 1. did not study much. when in and out within 1hr15 mins. after the test, we discussed for a long long time on wat to do. finally decided on kpool and kbox. we scattered and were to meet at je at 12.30. went for lunch(i did not eat. i ate at home) and tried entering kpool but was stopped by the attendant as there are some of us who are wearing half sch u. so we went kboxing frm 1. it was supposed to end at 5 but there was not much ppl, so we were allowed to sing till 7. sing until no voice. first time sing until liddat but my singing still sucks.

went training on sat. quite suprised to see a lot of j1s and seniors there. first time saw so many ppl on a sat training. the atmosphere was quite nice. did some training till 12 and went for lunch wif them.

went minds cafe today wif some sec2 frens. around 6 bucks from 2 to 6 with unlimited board and card games as well as free flow drinks. had quite alot of fun there. long time since i met some of them, so its nice to noe that they are doing well now. after tat, we went for dinner at a place called dunno wat rocky wateva. had lasagne at $7.90 which is acceptable. its quite nice too.

in case u r wondering, i did nothing except basic necessities on fri, sun and mon. which consist of slping,slacking,gaming,eating and using the toilet.

2008-08-27T12:54:00.002+08:00

second last day of prelims le. woo. abit disappointed wif chem paper 1 though. i think i had around 15 points deducted already. played a lot of bball lately. very shiok. very long since i touched a ball. today played 1hr plus non stop. played until veri tired. but the feeling is damn gd.

2008-08-23T20:56:00.004+08:00

slp frm around 6+ to 7 ytd after eating panadol. woke up at around 8.30 and snoozed abit before waking up fully at 9. nothing much happened today. slack the whole day. did not study much today cuz i can't focus. nvm. its gd the rest sometimes after so much studying.
the weather is damn gd to slp today. v cooling. still having a little headache. o yea! last week of prelims le!! can slack a bit before gearing up for alvls. 2 months to study phy and econs. weee.
not bad. i have been blogging for more than a month le. hope i can keep this up for as long as i can. lol

2008-08-22T17:58:00.003+08:00

chem paper 2 was okay i hope. aim to get as high as possible since paper 3 was so screwed up. need to get 30+ points for paper 1 in order to score a decent mark.
econs was erm... indescribable. did not study for essay so i knew i was a goner. wrote 6 pages of bullshit and hope i at least pass. having a headache since after chem paper 2. got worse during econs. reached home my dad say i was abit feverish. gonna slp like a pig ltr with the help of panadols. i think its the weather. it was quite humid the last few days and suddenly it rained. i think its the sudden change in weather tat caused it. who noes? gonna slp real soon.

2008-08-21T21:36:00.002+08:00

phy paper 3 was manageable but i dunno how to do a lot of questions. feel that i am insufficiently prepared for prelims. i guess i will haf to mug my way through till alvls when prelims are over.
the more i study chem, the more stupid mistakes i realise i made. can't wait for prelims to be over to take a short breather. tmr will be a long long day. chem and econs paper 2 on the same day. havent touched econs. 4 hr break between the paper so i hope i can get as much info possible into my head in that 4 hrs. i am so going to fail my econs. damn.
olympic taekwando was really exciting. too bad there is no live telecast for the gold medal match. their fakes are really nice and their footwork is really good. some kicks are timed nice too. however, there are times when both fighters tend to be more defensive, thus making the match abit boring. hope to be able to train till i reach their level this lifetime.
as u can see, there is an idiot who has nothing better to do. didn't even dare to put his real name. so i guess i will find out real soon.

2008-08-18T23:35:00.002+08:00

today's chem was difficult and i am not going to elaborate on it.
did some phy revision today. well, i consider tat revision even though i did veri little. did notes for around 5-6 topics. left with AC and modern phy. need to do practise though. i dun think i will do well for wed's phy test anyway.
i miss listeninng to music. my headphone is spoilt and i can't use it to listen to music. i also formatted my com last wk, so there goes my music files. sucks. i am lazy to transfer the files frm my phone to the com. it takes too much time. anw, i dun think i can study infront of the com too.
anw, singapore won her first olympic medal after 48 years. strangely, i dun feel any pride even though it is an astonishing feat. i consider the match a china vs china match. china dispatched china team b within an hr and half. to gif china team b some credit, they haf played the longest against china compared to other countries.
can't wait for olympic taekwando to start~~

2008-08-15T23:17:00.002+08:00

studied v little today. managed to finish organic and most of inorganic chem. left wif transition elements which i will be finish up ltr.
feeling damn pissed wif my elder sister. suspecting her of having pms. she leaves home at 9am for sch at uni and comes home at 11+. who noes wat she is doing outside. when she comes home, she always argue wif my mum over the issue that my mum is touching her stuff. my mum merely helepd her clear her table a bit and she is overreacting. can't stand these arugements. make me damn pissed and irritated. hoep she will end this nonsense soon.

2008-08-14T12:24:00.003+08:00

today's maths paper was manageable. managed to finish it in 2.5 hrs. quite careless though. i think i made some silly mistakes along the way and i can't figure out whr. time to study for chem p3. boring...
i almost had enough wif that brother crap and vegetable nonsense. o ya. and wats up with the ann thing? damn idiotic. trying to control myself not to lose my temper.

2008-08-13T22:32:00.002+08:00

2 subjects gged. econs case study was damn difficult. i dunno how to ans all the qnts. so, in short, i am gonna fail. came home and fixed both the computers. both caught a virus. damn. reformatted both of them. took hell of a time. installation of drivers also took plenty of time. lots of time wasted on the computer today. crap. did not study much for maths today as a result. hope i still can manage an A for the test tmr. suffering from a mild headache due to lack of slp. better slp early today to be prepare for tmr's test.

2008-08-12T22:38:00.002+08:00

prelims started today. the passage was damn funny. 2nd passage ended with "... kind of like starring in your very own Day After Tomorrow. LOL." the LOL part was rather interesting. there was a question asking what the author implies by using LOL. overall, i felt that the papers r tough. i can answer almost none of the questions in paper 2. i skipped all the questions initially to do the vocab. went back to do the qnts but still dunno how to answer them. wasted a lot of time on summary. left 15 mins to do AQ. anyhow chiong finish aq and managed to finish it on time. chose the wrong questions for paper 1. should haf read the questions more carefully. damn. did the question halfway when i realised that i am out of points and do not noe how to continue. crapped the rest of the way and managed a 4-page essay. now, its time to pray. tmr econs case study and i nvr study much. ggfied.

2008-08-10T22:35:00.002+08:00

following the beijing olympics basketball matches religiously lately. pretty exciting matches whr world class basketball players pit their skills against each other. spain vs geerce was damn exciting. spain's free throw percetange was above 90%. everyone in the team contributed well in that game. there is a 17 year old tat has lots of talent. should be seeing him in the nba some time soon. wanted to watch the us vs china match but i dun haf cable tv. too bad. shud be veri veri exciting. waiting for someone to upload it to youtube so i can watch it.
did not do much studying lately. hope i can manage the prelims averagely. havent started econs revision so i am not looking forward to the econs tests. sucks.
rereading mangas lately to kill time. yea, i noe i shud be studying but i dun haf the mood to do so. its unproductive to study when u dun haf the mood. can't get anything into ur head.

2008-08-05T21:22:00.002+08:00

i dunno why but i dun have the mood to study today. cannot concentrate on my work as my mind tend to wander off in just a few minutes time so i decided to take a break today. did a little of maths and chem, literally. a few qnts each and i slacked for the whole day. joined zhi chiaw in mappling for a while. nachos wif salsa sause is nice. should try it. cheesy and spicy and salty. ntuc sells salsa sause at a hefty price though. $5+ for a medium bottle. nachos can be bought at $3+ for a mega pack. recommended for all to try. anw, try this game made by my friend.

2008-08-04T21:23:00.002+08:00

study break rocks. i think its more productive studying during the study break then during school hrs. maybe its because i dun pay much attention during lessons hence i cant learn much. who noes. did plenty of studying. studied until 2am ytd. pretty tired today. totally no mood to study today. havent started revision for maths, econs and gp. hopefully i have enough time to do so. 1 wk more to go till prelims. spamming cookies and chocolates to make myself feel happier during studies. eating chocolates can really make u feel much much better. chocolate rocks!! finishing my snack stocks though. need to stock up soon but i am out of cash. zz.

2008-08-02T23:16:00.003+08:00

i think i am a pessimist. i like to think of the worst situation juz in case it happens. dunno. inherent nature? come to think of it, quite a n.o of my frens think i pessimistic. i think i am being practical. always be prepared of the worst situations so u will not be so shocked. dunno. tats my personal opinon.
went to sch for econs today. tiong was in a surprising gd mood even though we skipped lecture on thurs. i still vaguely rmb how her face changed when a couple of us saw her on thurs. kinda funny now i think of that. after sch, i went to jp wif jiji to shop for a router that can support wireless network. after tat when ntuc to shop for snacks. first time buy so much snacks. i think i overdid it. studied a bit of phy today. did until circular but quite alot of qnts unsure. hope can tahan late night studying.
i hate it when my classmates associate me wif the colour green and vegetables. dunno who started that. will hear the same thing everyday in class and i feel abit frustrated abt it. anw its the study break period now so i wont be hearing tat for qutie some time.
life in singapore is getting worse i think. everything is raising except the income. smrt is raising the transport fare even when they earned a profit of $4million last 3 months i think. gonna pay 10cents more each ride. sucks. a tourist juz wrote an entry to straits time citing that everything in singapore is getting more expensive, even in his own country(he's frm us i think). price rosed at least 20% on average. one day tourists will be scared away by the price singapore charged...

2008-07-30T20:40:00.002+08:00

shit. really totally not veri prepared for the maths test tmr. first time so unprepared. i think its because i have not done stats topics for a long long time. hoep i still can manage an A. juz saw the prelim timetable and realised how much i will need to study for the study break nxt wk. need to do at least 7 chapters each day to finish revision in 1 wk. can start feeling the stress of a lvls already and it is not a nice feeling. shit.
slack lessons today. econs tut was a waste of time as usual. most of the guys ponned econs lect and went to the lib to study. ms tiong is pissed and wants to send us to detention i think. who cares. was not listening during chem tut. total waste of time today. after sch, wanted to pon civics initially but guilty concious sets in so in the end when up to the hall to hear a monologue with the principal.
napped a while until 6 then started revision. feel really frustrated cuz i cant do a lot of qnts even though i have done them before. maybe will continue the revision ltr. zzz.

2008-07-29T21:16:00.002+08:00

feeling reather stressed up lately. i can't do my stats topic as well as last time and i haf to keep referring to the ans. can't believe i had finished the revision book once. i am still unsure of a lot of qnts especially hypothesis testing. concepts are gone and i need to find them back. more work. worse still. the physical chem worksheet is so hard that i am already giving up doing it. most of the harder qnts are really tough and i do not noe how to ans them. haiz. concept problem again i think. zzz. lots of things to revise in the 1 wk study break. need some stress reliever. shit.

2008-07-28T18:50:00.003+08:00

pretty tired lately. having a headache sometimes. lessons was usual today. inorganic chem is really quite tough. dunno how to ans the qnts yet. need practise more i think. gave back the maths paper today. realised i made a lot of stupid mistakes even if i had done the paper before. a few of us skipped phy lecture and when to play bball. quite fun. v long nvr play liddat already. when home at around 1.30. slept until around 5. feel so shiok but still having a headache after i woke up. dling zhang xue you songs. some r really nice!

2008-07-25T21:21:00.003+08:00

a few of us when to jian jie's house to bake muffins for his cell group meeting after sch. we played games and slack around and played the piano. i realise now tat i am beginning to lose touch in piano. too long nvr practise. haiz. we baked too many muffins and we ended up eating most of them. after tat we when down to play bball. also long time nvr play then end up v exhausted. some guai lan hooligans come nxt team but in the end got trashed by te wei, sheen an and zhi chiaw. overall, today is a gd day. wee.

2008-07-24T19:12:00.002+08:00

woke up at 3am this morn to study a bit more for econs. wanted to wake up at 1.30 initially but i fell back asleep after waking up. studied for half hr before going back to slp again. revising econs the whole day except during gp and maths. during maths lect i found out i am out of touch wif stats topics. damn. need go revise again. too long nvr do already. econs test was not as tough as i expected. most qnts are doable. i think i can pass but not v well done, considering my 25 marks essay was onli 2 pages. my marco essay should be badly written and i am banking on my micro topics. hope my elasticity qnt did not write out of point.
need to go study gp now. damn. super boring. mon still got an inorganic chem test which i havent start revising. i am really damn behind schedule.

2008-07-23T21:01:00.002+08:00

physical chem revision package is really tough. think until headache. stuck at ionic eqm so i decided to give up. it rained again today and its damn cold. dunno how ppl can stand the cold. plenty of tests lately. ytd got a mirco case study test. today did a macro case study test which i am going to fail. tmr got a freaking 3 essay paper for econs yet again. i havent finish revision and i think i am going to flunk this paper quite badly. going to slp early tonite and wake up at around 2 to study more. shit. i should have started revision earlier. after econs still got a freaking gp test on fri. omg. my pens are gonna run out of ink by the end of this wk.
skipped econs lect today and tried to study for the test but in the end, nothing when into my head. chem mcq test was doable but made a lot of dumb mistakes. change the correct ans to another ans. haiz. dumb tok abt resume writing and interview. i doubt it was of any use. i wonder how much the sch wasted on hiring tat speaker. the money confirm can be put into better use. not many ppl are listening to the talker. a lot ppl studying for the econs test today. like many ppl said, the planning of the sch sucks.

2008-07-22T17:47:00.002+08:00

the principal made some weird speech today cuz a teacher commented on his way of punishment. his speech kinda degrade the teachers. the also mention some story about angels, humans and devils and i haf no idea wat he is toking abt but i feel tat many christians may be pissed by the way he phrases the story. life's usual today. manage to pass my phy. 20/40. not bad. considering my phy sucks. when studying wif eric after sch today. did nothing much. the HCI chem eqm qnt is freaking difficult. i guess tats wat differentiates us and the HCI brainies.. aimming to finish a few mirco topics tonite. hopefully there will be enough time more phy revision during the study break period. anw, sports science is starting tonite. woot!

2008-07-21T17:39:00.002+08:00

sch is like usual. boring and a bit waste of time. gonna fail phy again. 3 more wks to prelim. the countdown begins.
anw, i really dun understand some of the sch policies aimmed to so-called facilitate how the sch runs. for instance, y can students leave the sch onli at 1 when they r dismissed at 12.30. everyday, there are tons of ppl waiting at the gate to leave sch. students are wasting half hour of their lives daily by waiting at the gate instead of doing other productive things.
gonna spot topics of the coming econs test on thurs. most probably doing 2 macro and 1 micro qnt. hope elasticity comes out.

2008-07-19T22:51:00.002+08:00

slack stone rot. tats the 3 things i did today. not much revision although there are tons of tests nxt wk. dunno how i am going to cope wif revision tmr. bad bad day. still a bit emo.

2008-07-17T17:47:00.000+08:00

hmm.. my classmates are having a blogging fever so i decided to revive my blog for the second time to join them. long time since i blogged and i am still not v sure how the html works. i hope this blog can act as an outlet of stress for me. can't believe how my mind works.. the cold hard facts are tat prelims are in 3 wks and a lvls in a few months time. BUT i haf yet to start study intensively. taking phy as an example, i have not even mastered the j1 topics. sometimes i really pity my low determination.. lots of tests nxt wk. gonna get pwned again and again.
