i got my promo results back last week.. i failed and have to retake J1 next year...
haha bluff you! i passed! lol.
last week was fun cos i tricked lotsa people that i failed and they got worried haha. mum got really scared and even called me. cos i sent her a msg that was something like "i got back my results. very bad. next year must retain." haha! then on sunday i tricked liesl and my dad and yiying helped so liesl got really angry and hit me lots of times lol.
anws here's my results:
GP 57% C
Geog 30% U
physics 49% E
econs 50% D
maths 55% C
yeah so i passed everything except geog. i did better than midyear and so my maths and econs got pulled down by one grade so my overall results are CUEED. good enough to promote. yep so looks like i'll be taking alevels next year.
the last 6 days or so have been about preparing for project work oral presentation. my group is doing on the first day which is this friday 31 oct.
yesterday we met at shu feng's house in the morning to practice. afterwards me and shu feng went to sentosa to meet the rest of the class cos we had some picnic party thing there. played beach captains ball and got real sandy. but it was a fun day:)
last saturday was e-rae's bday:) we went to bugis in the afternoon to celebrate. in the end me and e-sean bought some new clothes and e-rae didnt buy anything haha!
on sunday we also went to kuo chuan for the friendly games with living praise presbyterian church. i didnt play badminton but went to play captains ball. but after the first few minutes i realised that i had no motivation to play properly cos it was just friendly games. so i started slacking and walked most of the time haha. if get too competitive later also fighting all ah haha.
today went to school for chinese remedial lecture and PW dry run again. i reached late for chinese and didnt pay much attention during the lecture. but PW was ok i think.
yup, kinda boring..
anws here's a nice song!
"Now this is something you don't see everyday"
I once told you that it wasn't the end,
But I thought that I was lying.
Looks though things have come round the bend,
But I'm still stuck here waiting.
I can't stand the way we have to take this everyday
You know it's just not right, but it's your fears you won't fight
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
I once told you that I had moved on
But I knew that I was lying
I could hear your tears through the phone
But we're still not trying
Oh, we said goodbye, I think some part of me died
Do I just wait for my turn, and watch the city burn
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
Is it too late
Can't accept my fate
The memories are all I can take with me
I guess I'll let you be
It's not the end (I wonder if you'll)
Take my hand (I wanna be there for you)
It's something we can't mend (I'm sorry I gave up)
I'm trying hard to stand
It's not the end...
yeah nice song:)
hmm.. not much else to write. tmr is a holiday so i'm staying at home. then thursday is Alevel chinese which i am totally not prepared for. and friday is project work oral presentation which i am quite prepared for. so it'll all be over by this friday 31 oct!!
man, i can't wait for nov and dec! got lotsa fun stuff to do:)
The Day The World Changed is coming once again.
countdown: 5 days

pokemon master!!!
sigh.. i miss you so much.. i can't believe you're gone now, though i've pretty much got over you. i remember all the times we shared together. sometimes we went fast, sometimes we went slow. now that you're gone i realise how much i need you. but someone stole you from me. i shouldn't have left you there. maybe it's better that you're gone now so i wouldn't get knocked down and get hurt. anyway the loud sound you made everytime i put on the brakes was starting to get annoying. so goodbye, my bicycle...
hahaha. i told CRYSIz i would do this once i got the inspiration. anws i feel like buying a new cheap bike which doesn't look that nice so people won't steal it. and this time i'll lock it somewhere safer-.- cos only after my bike was gone i realised how different walking to the bus stop is from cycling. haha.
well, now that promos are over i'm playing more. i've gone bowling and pool with renyi, cheang and YC. so far ryan hasn't been able to make it for those outings. the latest one was really fun haha.
i've gone for tea at coffee bean with mum and she bought me a new coin pouch:) cos my wallet can't really hold coins. hannah said it looks girly, but we actually bought it from the men's section haha.
we've had some football trainings with the singapore combined schools team as well. which is like the best players from JC. something like national team haha. they're really good. i'm like at a lower standard than them, but maybe that's cos i haven't played for really long. mr ho says i can compete at their standard, but it's not really on my mind lah.
the other day at the training my old boots spoilt:( the back sole came out. so i went to buy a new one which looks really cool. it's a Total90 shoot, which i think is the boots that torres wears, but i bought the black and grey one cos it looks like the black spider-man suit haha:) cost $80 which is ok for nike i guess.. i shall call it my spider-boots! to replace my spoilt dragon-boots. haha. cos my old white one had material that looked like dragon skin and i scored lotsa goals with it.
the other day i went to look through my goal-scoring records and counted that i've scored 27 goals in 13 games for PLH (from sec 1 synod games til now). that means i average 2 goals a game for PLH. drat at first i was quite disappointed cos i thought it would be higher, but i realised that the games i've played for PLH were all competitive games, so it's a good ratio i guess.
we also went for angie's surprise party that saturday. hoho it was fun!:) it was at becky and esther's house. they have this Wii thing and we played tennis on it haha. david was quite good cos he found the formula for the power serve, so i got trashed by him quite alot lol. but nvm, it's only like some playstation thing and not real tennis:p then we played block catching too and other fun stuffs which i can't rmb at the moment.
i passed the chinese EOY exam too! lol. 45%, which is an E. but it'll count for nothing if i fail A-level chinese anws. so i didn't really care about it. but it's the highest i've got for the whole year. i was sleeping when we got back the paper, so i signed quite horribly next to my mark and our chinese teacher shouted "who signed for i-zack???" LOL. then my friend told her i signed it myself while i was half asleep. that day when we got it back again i realised that the signature was really quite stupid looking haha!!
that day we had chinese anchor test too. it's a test set by MOE for certain classes to gauge our school's chinese standard then they can determine how difficult to set the A-level paper. so quite a few of us decided that we will purposely do badly for it so that the standard will be low haha! the paper was 1hr30min long. i finished it in 15min. LOL. i wonder what marks i got for that. should be able to set a new record for my lowest chinese mark (which is 18%).
liverpool beat wigan 3-2 on saturday too!! yeah another comeback victory! that's the 5th time this season i think. man, we're showing really good character to turn victory into defeat in the last 10min of games. but we can't keep going like this for long cos we won't be able to come back from behind everytime. but at least we're still keeping pace with chelsea at the top:)
i've also watched the first 4 pokemon movies on youtube last saturday and sunday:) haha. (mewtwo strikes back, the power of one, spell of the unknown, mewtwo returns) wow, brings back lotsa good memories. pokemon is like the best thing that japan ever invented. besides sushi. for those of you who don't know, my favourite pokemon is charizard!! hahaha.. second favourite is pikachu. my next favourites are squirtle and bulbasaur:) but now they come up with so many new pokemon that i can't keep track already. i only know up to the first 250 pokemon haha. i realised what a big thing pokemon is to me. the storyline is really fantastic and stuff. ash ketchum is an absolute inspiration to all aspiring pokemon masters. i'm already a pokemon master lah, but i'm past those days i guess.. unless i buy a new gameboy catridge and start playing again!! haha.. oh yes and some of the theme songs are really nice.:)
2 weeks ago i also killed a cockroach by trapping it in a food container and spraying the insecticide inside haha!!! wow then can see it squirming about inside. super cool man. but you will waste a food container/ tupperware everytime you do this method. i have decided to call it the "death chamber" method hahaha!
yesterday i was late for school cos i slept on the bus and missed the stop. so i had to walk back-.-
we had a mock chinese exam too but i didn't take it seriously. so i finished the compo in 50min and slept for 4omin, and finished the compre in 30min and slept for 1hour.
after school we went shu feng's house to do project work too. i think our group is almost ready. yesterday we managed to do all the props and stuff for our oral presentation group skit.
man, this hols looks like it's gonna be a busy one.. my schedule looks quite packed. cos of lots of fun stuff and stuff like class overseas CIP to batam and chinese A-levels and PW. but oh well, busy but fun also good lah.
today i also went for a haircut. i told the lady to keep the length but make my hair thinner. i think it looks kinda funny.. not what i expected. my fringe now also looks kinda non-existent. oh well nevermind, after a month or so it should grow back again..
anws the o-levels have started this week too so all the best to those who are taking it!!
charizard, i choose you!!!
btw i just found out this cool thing!!

post-war analysis
yeah my promos are finally over!! hahaha...
but still got PW oral presentation and chinese A-levels coming up anyway lah.
well here's my evaluation of promos:
bear in mind mid-year exams already contains 20% of the marks.
GP (midyr D) - wrote the compo pretty ok i think. chose the topic on sports which i was familiar with so i think should be ok. not much to say about the compre. aim: to get same as mid year. D
geog (midyr U) - didn't study much cos was focusing on H2 subjects. expected: U
chinese (midyr U) - expected: U
physics (midyr E) - not very confident for this one. studied quite a bit but the questions were kinda confusing. aim: to get at least 30-something% and get pulled up by the midyr E to get S.
econs (midyr S) - i'm quite confident for econs. wrote the essays which i knew about and the paper format also quite easy. aim: overall E
maths (midyr S) - thought it would be easy but turns out the questions were tougher than expected. about 30marks gone already by leaving the questions blank. hopefully those i did will be enough to score me 40%. aim: same as midyr. S
yup so with a DESS i will be promoted to J2 next year. pls pray for me!:)
yesterday was a fun day with CRYSIz. renyi came my house at 10am and we played some songs on the guitar. now one of my songs is stuck in his head haha! it's called "don't know". it's like a more different song from my other ones. like diverting away from rock all the time and this one is a total acoustic thing. it's not a love song but it's sounds a bit romantic haha. renyi kept singing it afterwards. it's totally stuck in his head. that's gotta be a good thing cos only nice songs get stuck in your head haha. it was some interesting inspiration for that song actually.
anws we went to cheang's house at 12plus and jammed there with cheang and YC. i guess we're kinda better now than we were 2 years ago but to me it's not moving as fast as i would have liked. i guess it's cos we're not full-time and have to focus on studies. and we don't have the resources, time, or money to record a full album. and also we are in need of a really good singer. oh well. that's for another time.
we met ryan at vivo at 5plus. caught the 6pm eagle eye show. WARNING! do not read the next paragraph unless you don't mind some spoilers for the show!!
haha. well i think it's quite ok lah. but not say very fantastic or what. the fact that the computer was super smart and got out of control and caused everything is a spoiler. shia leboeuf was the main actor. yeah he's a good actor man, since his nickelodeon days haha. as a kid watching him doing stupid stuff on shows like er.. ok i forgot his show titles, but they were funny. i think at the first part when his brother died and he was kneeling at the coffin and crying was super touching. really felt the sadness there. his crying was that good hahaha.. and he's got a cool moustache-beard-sideburn thing in the show!:)
after the show we hanged out for awhile then took the train home. yup, days with CRYSIz are always fun days:)
today decided to get back to training. after 5 weeks of no real exercise i was hoping for too much lah. i initially wanted to run 16km LOL.. in the end after 4km i was dying! so i stopped after 4km and went to try some pull-ups. could do 12. after 6 weeks of no weights i think it's not too bad lah.. then i tried a 100m sprint and clocked 14secs. that stinks but considering i was quite tired i'll let it pass.
yes now the holidays are here i feel like it's time to not study! dunno why just now i suddenly thought to myself "eh must study!" then i remembered the promos are over lol. was quite shocked with myself.
yup that's all folks.

#100
ok this is my blog's 100th post! it's taken like 1year and 4months think. so one month there's about an average of 6 posts? haha.
yes we won the merseyside 2-0 with two goals from torres!!:) hopefully that will signal him returning to the form he had last season. just feels great to beat everton. so that's wins over everton and man utd already this season:)
this morning we beat PSV 3-1 in the champions league too. kuyt scored the 100th champions league goal since rafa took over. that's like 4-5 seasons since rafa's been here so it's about 20-25 goals every season!o.O wow. keane finally got his first liverpool goal and gerrard got his 100th liverpool goal:) stunning freekick, really sweet strike. yeah so cool that all these 100 goals things coincide with my blog's 100th post. haha.
this week have had some promo papers. GP on monday was ok i think. my compo was on whether money can bring sporting success or not. i said that there were more important things such as discipline, teamwork, etc..
on tuesday was geog and chinese. i think those two were crap, comfirm fail haha. then was feeling kinda sick on tuesday after the papers so came home and slept all the way from 5.30pm to the next day 8.30am. lol. good thing when i woke up i felt better so i studied physics yesterday. almost a full day of nothing but physics.
today's paper was quite tough in some parts but some parts also quite easy. but after the paper i wasn't feeling very confident. but now after thinking through i think that even if i fail it will be by just a bit maybe? so with the 20% from promos which i passed then hopefully can pull up to a sub-pass. then i have to score better in either econs or maths to pull up my mid-year sub-pass to a clear pass.
so the next few days have to keep going!! ok back to my studying now! i don't expect to post again til my promos are over.

big names for the big games
we are just ONE HOUR away from the MERSEYSIDE DERBY!!!
EVERTON VS LIVERPOOL!!!
til today, i still struggle to decide which game is bigger and more important- the games against man utd, or the ones against everton.
i guess those against man utd, the scum, are more important cos it will affect the title race, and there are lotsa man utd fans in singapore.
btw there was this joke on football crazy that made me and dad laugh like nuts haha!!
Qns: why do astronauts go to train at old trafford (man utd's homeground)?
Ans: bcos it is the only place on earth with NO ATMOSPHERE!
LOL! omg that really cracked the both of us up hahahaha!!!XD
the games against everton are about city pride, and personally, i feel everton are inferior to us, so losing to them really just makes me sick. no offence to the manchester derby or some london derbies, but the merseyside derby is really of a different level. the challenges fly in like nobody's business and the cards come out like daisies in spring time!!! losing to our neighbouring rivals is really something i can't stand.
even though we've won 6 out of the 8 derbies since rafa took over, nothing is for certain in a derby. and that's the scariest part.
well, torres will be looking to regain his scoring form, keane will be desperate to get his first goal for the club, and gerrard is just one away from 100 goals for liverpool. so everton had better watch out. i don't care who scores as long as we win, but there'll be a soft spot for me towards gerrard and keane today. cos if either scores it's gonna be something special.
here's something from the liverpool website:
Steven Gerrard will skipper the side at Goodison still waiting for his 100th goal for Liverpool. After having a strike controversially ruled out against Stoke last weekend, Benitez is hoping it's a sign that his magical moment will arrive on derby day.
"Maybe his goal against Stoke City was disallowed because destiny has reserved him to score his 100th goal against Everton. Steven can score in any game, he's always a threat. But maybe it will be better for him if he scores on Saturday. Clearly, he is a player with quality and not too many midfielders can score 99 goals in their career. Steven is maybe the best attacking midfielder around."
yup, that's Stevie G, our captain! local boy turned hero.
okie dokie, now away from football:p
yesterday was CJC J1 study day. so there was no school. met yiying at PS mac's at 10am for breakfast first. then we studied econs from 11am to 2pm. after a while it got too noisy so we decided to walk to church and study there. then later athelia and sam came with the same idea of studying too haha. then later mark also. walao now all steal my idea of studying in church haha! it's really good man. (if you study alone) cos it's super quiet. and maybe God's presence helps a bit haha.
well i did econs the whole time again. finished the chapter on market structure. seriously, i can't stand it man. i still don't really get it. yiying was doing market failure, which to me is super easy but to her is super hard haha! and mkt structure is easier to her. o.O
then david came and we went for dinner.
then later we went for dbs!! contrary to what is on david's blog, i don't think uncle alex was really angry with us haha. cos everyone else also talking alot. just so happened we're directly infront of him so he look straight sure see us haha. cos everytime a point was raised david and i will be like "wow that applies to this part of our lives!" then we will say something like "okay, we have to uncheck our 'auto-judge' button" or "wow quite hard to get rid of this kinda thinking leh." cos last night was about judging people. so me and david will have to try harder to stop judging people! sometimes it's quite hard cos very hard to change impressions of people, but yes we must pray!
ok today i just stayed at home and i did the chapter on market failure for econs. so that's completed my revision for the H2 subjects!!
i've got a plan for the next 10 days of exams and hopefully it'll be enough.
here are some verses i've took comfort in:
nahum 1:7 - "The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him."
phil 4:13 - "I can do everything through him who gives me strength."
romans 8:28 - "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
hope this is encouraging to all those taking exams!:) o-level, n-level, a-level, promos, or whatever EoYs.
alrighto, almost time for the big game!!
and almost time for my exams as well! haha. they start on monday and last to next tuesday 7 oct.
it's...... GO TIME!!!
do or die. now or never. make or break.
EVERTON VS LIVERPOOL!!!
til today, i still struggle to decide which game is bigger and more important- the games against man utd, or the ones against everton.
i guess those against man utd, the scum, are more important cos it will affect the title race, and there are lotsa man utd fans in singapore.
btw there was this joke on football crazy that made me and dad laugh like nuts haha!!
Qns: why do astronauts go to train at old trafford (man utd's homeground)?
Ans: bcos it is the only place on earth with NO ATMOSPHERE!
LOL! omg that really cracked the both of us up hahahaha!!!XD
the games against everton are about city pride, and personally, i feel everton are inferior to us, so losing to them really just makes me sick. no offence to the manchester derby or some london derbies, but the merseyside derby is really of a different level. the challenges fly in like nobody's business and the cards come out like daisies in spring time!!! losing to our neighbouring rivals is really something i can't stand.
even though we've won 6 out of the 8 derbies since rafa took over, nothing is for certain in a derby. and that's the scariest part.
well, torres will be looking to regain his scoring form, keane will be desperate to get his first goal for the club, and gerrard is just one away from 100 goals for liverpool. so everton had better watch out. i don't care who scores as long as we win, but there'll be a soft spot for me towards gerrard and keane today. cos if either scores it's gonna be something special.
here's something from the liverpool website:
Steven Gerrard will skipper the side at Goodison still waiting for his 100th goal for Liverpool. After having a strike controversially ruled out against Stoke last weekend, Benitez is hoping it's a sign that his magical moment will arrive on derby day.
"Maybe his goal against Stoke City was disallowed because destiny has reserved him to score his 100th goal against Everton. Steven can score in any game, he's always a threat. But maybe it will be better for him if he scores on Saturday. Clearly, he is a player with quality and not too many midfielders can score 99 goals in their career. Steven is maybe the best attacking midfielder around."
yup, that's Stevie G, our captain! local boy turned hero.
okie dokie, now away from football:p
yesterday was CJC J1 study day. so there was no school. met yiying at PS mac's at 10am for breakfast first. then we studied econs from 11am to 2pm. after a while it got too noisy so we decided to walk to church and study there. then later athelia and sam came with the same idea of studying too haha. then later mark also. walao now all steal my idea of studying in church haha! it's really good man. (if you study alone) cos it's super quiet. and maybe God's presence helps a bit haha.
well i did econs the whole time again. finished the chapter on market structure. seriously, i can't stand it man. i still don't really get it. yiying was doing market failure, which to me is super easy but to her is super hard haha! and mkt structure is easier to her. o.O
then david came and we went for dinner.

Happy Birthday YC!!
today is YC's bday. so, Happy Birthday dude!!!
i'd like to thank him for being a great friend for the past 2 yrs. being part of CRYSIz is always super fun with him around. haha. no matter how cool i am, he's still the real cool one lol. rock on dude!!
anws last sat night was nonsense man. liverpool drew 0-0 with stoke at anfield. even though we had like 80% possession, 20+ corners, and played the whole game in their half, it's not an excuse anymore this season. last season i would have took comfort from the fact that we dominated the whole game (like we usually do). but this season it's not about the performances anymore. i rather play badly every game of the season but still be champions in may. to win the title you have to score more goals than the opposition, and that's what we failed to do. with a team like stoke (no offence), who cares about defending?? just go and whack them upside down! if they score, what they gonna do about it? just score more lah. with players like torres, gerrard, keane, babel, kuyt, etc, even if u concede let's say 2 goals, u can't win 4-2 or 5-2? time to start playing fearlessly. i definitely trust in rafa, but sometimes in games like this, u just gotta think and play like champions. come on lads, we're liverpool. so let's play like we are. and we have the perfect opportunity to show that this sat in the merseyside derby against everton:)
last sunday was also the PSPC 165th anniversary. gotta thank God for our church and how much He has blessed it.
the family day fear factor games were also real fun:) my group was Barney & Friends!! lol. trust me to come up with this kinda stupid name. my group had me, lucas, weile, tim leong, adriel, audrey, hannah, liesl, michelle goh, and andrea. yeah they're quite a fun bunch haha.
monday to today has just been about going to school and sitting in lectures, trying to get some hints for the promos, and of course, sleeping during geog and chinese. haha!!
i've completed my revision for maths and physics and half of econs but i still feel quite unprepared. like i almost don't know anything haha. nvm, after i complete econs revision tmr then it'll be back to good old last night studying. i find it really works to a large extent for me.
okay please pray for me ppl!!:)

youch
yohoho! my parents are out so i took a bottle of beer from the fridge to drink! haha bluff you! actually it's just ginger beer.
just had pizza for dinner. but crap man i found out it's just a cheese pizza! no meat or vegetables, just cheese. o.O??? like that where got balanced meal? no protein or what. just carbo and some cheese fats..
anws the last few days have been quite good in terms of studying. i've finished revising all maths chapters and physics only left superposition and electric fields. yesterday after school went to church to study. i reached at 3pm and studied til 6pm. i did 3 chapters of physics (gravitation, forces, and circular motion). then went for dinner then dbs at 7.30pm.
david came for dbs too! haha. i think i shall continue to psycho him so he will come next week! haha. hey people you should come for dbs! you learn alot about the bible and somemore it's real fun!! it's on fridays at 7.30pm in church!:) and it's not like your normal DG actually.
today woke up late for my sat morn runs.. so i ran before dinner instead. 15km. it's the longest distance i have ever run. and crap!! i think i stretched my right hamstring! maybe didn't warm up that part enough:( so i took super long. i won't say the timing here cos it's embarrassing. lol. then now i feel a bit sick.. don't know why. this year has actually been my best physical condition ever. whole year not even been sick once. contrary to what my teachers think:p and i've also got some personal records in running and NAPFA and whatever physical tests i've taken this year. but i want to keep improving! i have some aims in stuff like 2.4km and 100m so i need to keep improving. hope i don't fall sick... but maybe my body is tired from all the training this year.. last time in sec sch never even train before haha.
well i had maths tuition in the morning and i asked raymond chan to help me with AP and GP. those two topics super hard man. actually the formulas and everything are quite easy when you just study it, but when you do the questions it's craazyy!!!o.O all the questions super hard like dunno what like that.
then i took a short 1hr nap and mum made waffles for brunch:) then i did 3 more chapters of physics from 12-3pm. (oscillations, waves, current of electricity)
after that i played my electric guitar. now i'm better at playing "famous last words" by MCR, "addicted" by simple plan, and "holiday" by greenday:)
oh ya and that day i was listening to "no love" by simple plan and i finally realised what the lyrics mean!!! after so long i always thought it was about something else but now i realise it actually means this thing. haha.
anws the liverpool vs stoke city game is at 10pm! well it's been a good start to the season. we've managed to get points even though we haven't hit top gear. and i think that's actually a good sign. should not peak too early in the season. then later part of the season when hit top form then whoohooo!
just visited the liverpool website just now and benitez said he and sammy lee and some reds players decided they will switch around "you'll never walk alone" with the EPL song! hahah!! yeah man what a great tactic! no wonder the man utd game i was thinking why when the players in the tunnel haven't sing YNWA yet and only sang when the players were on the pitch. now they play the EPL stupid song first when the players in the tunnel and YNWA when the players are on the field to psycho the other team and to pump up the liverpool players:) solid!!
rafa also said gerrard is now the best midfielder in the world and top 3 players in the world. i think the other two is probably torres and mascherano haha. nah i think rafa was thinking about cristiano ronaldo and kaka.
oh man stoke city has this guy called rory delap and his long throw is nuts!! goes right into the penalty spot area. liverpool have to watch out for it later.
well. after the liverpool game i think i'll do my GP essay (which is a whole month due) at midnight. so should finish by 2am. then can see the last part of arsenal and bolton.
man my GP essay was actually due on 25 august. haha. yesterday mr holden came to me and said "i-zack, -" then before he said another word i said "yeah i know, the essay. monday." then he smiled at me and said with his funny caucasian accent "you're walking off the edge i-zack. walking off the edge and just about to fall off." o.O?!! what?? is my GP that bad? haha. then i got 23/50 for my previous essay and he said "not as bad as i expected actually." o.O!!?? man i think he's got a very low impression of me. partly cos i always sleep in his class i guess. haha. hope i'm not too over-confident for GP. i'm having the same attitude for it as the one i had for english.
tmr is PSPC 165th anniversary!:) service is later than usual haha. that's why tonight i can afford to sleep later. 10am at pres. high. after that will be the family day games. it's called fear factor lol. ooooo scary.
yeah and next week monday i shall complete my physics revision. mr rajoo says on monday he can give me a consultation period on superposition and electric field. then tue to fri i will study all the econs chapters!! after which i SHOULD be ready for the promos...
super scared man.. if i fail just one topic this time then will either get retained or kicked out of school!o.O heard that most likely they will just kick us out cos from next year onwards our school doesnt want any retainees. if retain actually not so bad cos can improve your foundation and i get to be in the soccer team for 3yrs haha. if kick out it's like o.O??? have to go poly or work or smth..
no way man i'm gonna study this last stretch and pass my promos and go to J2 next year!!
that is, if they set the papers at a standard that i can do the questions...
but i think last night's DBS was good cos it was about God providing for us and not worrying. so it's all in His hands.
whoa crap but still scared to the MAXimum!
ok it's almost time for the liverpool match. hey and i don't feel really sick anymore!:)
oww babeah!
