Been a while since I've blog. You see, I participated in the Vistarian Race and my body and legs were aching for the past few days.. We were among the first actually, but were stuck at the Palawan beach. The race clearly sucks. The rules were unclear. Some teams were given the clue to Siloso beach while some to Palawan beach.. In the end, the person was in the middle.(if you know what i mean) And what's worse, the race made 2 teachers quarrel. Mr Devan and Mrs Bryan. Mrs Bryan said Mr Devan shouldn't help his team to spell the word just because he was an English teacher. Mr Devan then said there wasn't any rule to say that an English teacher cannot help to spell English words. Ridiculous right? Ah, poor Miss Tan, she was feeling giddy after the first checkpoint, and had to return home..In the end, Ms Ezarin came and took over.. Anyway, among the 26 teams, we came in 24th. Kinda bad result, but we lost with honour. Unlike other teams, who took rides when the rules had said they weren't supposed to. The irony is that some of them were from integritas, which means integrity. But all in all, it was nothing but a very tired race. Probably the worse one I've ever experienced. But I got to say that our team was one with motivation. My teammates were encouraging each other.. etc.. However, if there were to be another race next year, there will be doubts that I will join the race again. Anyway, today, I did alot for my practical for D&T.. My othe friends left me alone.. Oh well.. Some of my friends birthdays are in the next few days.. Felicia, Guan Jie, Khai Theng etc.. May God bless them. And God bless you.


Oh, wanna wish Felicia and Mr Malvin Lim a very happy birthday!!! May God bless over you guys and all the very best for 2005!

I went to school early in the morning for choir.. Mr Liew had something to tell us.. about SYF.. He forgot to bring the comments but said the comments were quite good.. We nearly attained gold. 2 judges said we should get gold while the other 3 objected. So we got the highest silver. But its ok.. We tried our best.. than he said about our studies.. planning for June holidays etc.. I gotta work hard during the june holidays.. oh well.. Anyway, after school, me, yan tong, jun ping, jia yi and yingying went to Sim lim tower to buy D&T stuff.. Some people there were very rude and showed poor service.. In the end, I bought nothing but just a switch. What's more infuriating is that, after we reached there, Mr Yusri said he knows how to make and modify it... Argh.. so pissed off.. Went to a far place, but wasted trip... There was a sad news.. Someone in our school died. I cannot name names.. but he died of asthma attack.. I felt so sad.. I knew the boy.. It was certainly heart-wrenching. I thought: Why was this such an unfair world? He was a very nice and obedient boy.. Yet he had to die when he was 14.. Why? Why? I am very sad.. If his family would need some financial help, I will donate some money.. Haizz, why like that? My mood is really very bad.. I really hope God will bless his soul and his family. Life is so unpredictable.. Please treasure the people around you. God bless everyone and take care.. :(

It's been quite some time since I posted. Sorry. Anyway, I went to my grandma's house today. My grandma cried, saying that she had dragged the whole family..(She suffered a stroke.) My grandpa also cried, telling her not to be like that.. The atmosphere was very bad.. I nearly cried too. You see, she's been to those therapy and acupuncture but nothing seems to help, even though she's progressing kinda fast. She even thought of dying. Luckily, we were there to motivate her.. Anyway, I was recalling the past.. Come to think of it, time really flies. From my primary school days.. Ahh, Amanda, Joey.. Guess there's still others but they doesn't recognise me.. At Compassvale Pri.. Ivan, Feng wei.. All came to NVSS and we still study together.. Javier, Jeffrey and others.. Some went to Catholic High.. How bout those teachers? I still can't forget them. Mdm Usha, Mrs Arif, Mrs Wee... Ah... Secondary school.. Thought about 1n1.. Lynn, she left school.. How bout Maria? She migrated to Canada.. Wei Jian, Aik San.. retained.. Now we doesn't even talk..How bout Audrey? She got promoted to Express.. Thought about 4n2.. Seperated from 4n1.. thinking about now.. and the future... I really don't know.. I don't wanna believe that friends come and go. Yes, maybe not as close.. but at least stay in contact.. Oh well.... All the best and God bless.

I've taken back all my results. Here it is, if you're interested to know.

SA1

Elective History 13/50
Social Studies 26/50
(Overall combined humanities 39/100)

English Language Paper1 24/30 (Composition) 25/30 (Report on missing valuables)
English Language Paper2 54/80

Overall English Language Paper 74.6/100

Geography Paper1 & 2 47.5/100

Design & Technology 50/100

Elementary Maths 35/100

Chinese Language Paper 2 41/80
Chinese Composition 32.5/50
Chinese Letter Writing 10.5/20

Combined Science (Elective Physics and Chemistry) 42/100




As you can see, I did better for social studies than in elective history. No comments for combined humanities. But I still have high hopes for it in 'N' level. English paper 1, I did extremely well. Paper 2 was lower thanks to my mistake in the summary. Nevertheless, I still score well and only 0.4 marks close to getting A1. Geography paper, I was 2.5 marks short to getting the minimum passing mark. I have to admit I was a letdown for Geography paper. But my overall marks will pulled the marks up. I did badly, but I will try my best next time. Design and technology I got the minimum passing mark. I was expecting to score higher for it, but oh well, speechless. E Maths. It was the most letdown subject among all. I was hoping to pass, only to be killed in paper 2, no thanks to the miscalculations of the cumulative frequency curve. Hopefully, I will pass my maths in 'N' level. I will work hard for it. Trust me. I won't despair and give up hope easily. For chinese language, I wouldn't give the overall because I hadn't received my listening paper marks. So I am estimating myself to get around B3. As for combined science, I got 42/100. Physics Paper 2 was a total letdown. I got no comments. But for Chemistry, I managed to score well and pushed the marks to 42. Guess thats all. Well seriously, I am going to paid double attention to my combined science and humanities, and the most important of all, E Maths. I must not let Mrs Yap down. I must not let myself down. That's for today. I am quite moody. May God bless everyone with good marks. May god bless you. Best wishes.

Kinda bad day for me. I was doing Geograhpy paper. All seems to goes well except section B.. I just couldn't remember the river processes. To think I study on the weekends for hours, yet my mind just gone blank. Maybe I'll do badly. Tomorrow's D&T and Elective history, guess I stop brooding about Geography and continue with the rest of the paper.. oh well.. God bless everyone...

It's been quite a while since I blog. Well, I was busy preparing for exams and had no time to blog. Mid-year examinations had begun. For yesterday's Mother Tongue paper, I think I can, well, at least get a B3. Today was bad. I believe I will do well for my paper 1, but I am not displaying my potential this time that much. For paper 2, it was all well except for summary. The instructions said not more than 130 words. But I exceed way that limit to 217 words. When I realise it, the time was over. It certainly dashed my hopes of getting A1, since the summary accumulate to 20 marks. Well, but I believe I can still pass the summary, just the marks only. I believe my language and content is quite strong for that. Well, let's just hope my paper 1 and 2 will get in an A1. Hope my prayers are answered. The only thing that I can blame myself is poor time management. No matter what marks I get, I deserved it. Anyway, tomorrow's Social Studies paper. I've been racking my brains to memorise the chapters, trying to forget the grave mistake I made for the English summary. Hope I do well for all papers, especially maths and science. That's it, gonna stop here. May god bless everyone for their exams.

Lastly, congratulations to Mr Malvin Lim of the birth of a healthy baby boy named Malcolm!
