omg omg omg! i'll let the results speak for itself i guess.
english - A1chinese - B3 ( distinction for oral )
add maths - A2 ( darn. so close to that A1..)
e maths - A1sci (phy/chem) - A1biology - B3 (really suprised. thought i'd get a B4)
history - A1SS / lit - A2giving me a total L1R5 of
8 points. now comes the dilemma. should i apply for VJC or stay on in ACJC? as it is, i only have 2 bonus points and thus 6 points after cutoff. it seems risky to apply for VJC as it is.. i am even wondering if i should apply for VJ. if only i had that A1 for a maths (oh well, it's a little too late for regrets isn't it?).. i need input on this.
ok, out!~

results are out tomorrow. as it is right now i am extremely worried and probably on the verge of breaking down. i just don't know why. probably its because of the fear that i screwed up one subject or another. i am worried for both my humans most notably. i think they are done for. there goes my hope of getting below 8 or 9 points? and my dream of getting into VJ dashed?
i seriously am going to dread tmr. feel like ponning but i cant (yes, parents are strict on this issue).. wonder how i will last the morning tomorrow. and much of the afternoon. ah well. i'll probably be like half dead tomorrow i guess.
ok. enough of o level results already. i'm very sure everyone is worried as well.
lately i've been feeling out of place. as in, i don't really belong. the culture doesn't really suit me i feel. seriously wonder how it will be like in VJC (if i can even make it there in the first place). and i probably won't dare to make the change also considering i'm SLOWLY getting used to the lifestyle there? not to mention i'll miss some people there as well if i choose to leave. oh wells.
got an A for econs common test. 70+ % apparantly because we haven't got the scripts back yet. and failed my chem horribly as expected. 6.5/20, wonderful score isn't it? at the rate i'm going i'll need a chem tutor. bio and maths not back yet. but i'll probably flub the both of them so there we go. :(
wee i'm losing my motivation. out!~

sajc funfair + cross country. really interesting events of the week i guess. other than that school is so exhausting. going home dead tired is so wonderful. NOT. why can't ACJC have staggered dismissal times like VJ and RJ? and not end at 4.30pm every single day?! coupled to the fact i simply do not have motivation to do work anymore makes it worse. i don't know why. i go home and don't feel like doing anything. and even on weekends! but at least i managed to study some chem just now. otherwise i'd be deadmeat on tuesday.
yes, u heard right. common tests have arrived. gaah. first was chi and econs last week. got 36/50 for chi which is quite crap compared to the rest of the class. ): oh wells. chinese was never one of my better subjects anyway. econs was MCQ + data response. 14/20 for MCQ after verifying answers during tutorial. awaiting data response marks. hope i do well for it. chem, maths and bio upcoming. urgh. i think i'm so dead for chem. my chem used to be all right but i have way too much problems with redox. spectrometry is easy. and with a little practice i can probably understand volumetric analysis, mole calculations and stochiometry. bio should be no major problem. just mug (:
cross country on wed was simply silly. macritchie in the AFTERNOON. yes. in the
HOT afternoon. ok then again cross country last yr was held at turf city also in the afternoon. (wonder what on earth cathigh was thinking, holding it at turf city.) i prefer macritchie much more to turf city (yes, the distance to home factor comes in) but at least have some decency and hold it in the morning and not at 4pm in the afternoon when the sun is overhead! moreover i got duped and signed up for the competitive race. urgh. like most other people in LSG house too. ended up walking more than 3/4 the 4.8km and coming in almost the last of the guys. oh well.
SA funfair yesterday seemed quite sedate, dead to an extent. it wasn't that boring to the extent that there was no life at all, but quite boring nontheless, compared to other funfairs i've been to. but credit has to be given to them after all for quite a good job. probably i went there too early (was there at 10.30am with tov which is DARN early considering they only opened at 10) and left early due to other commitments. perhaps if i were there at 1-2pm there would be more life, that being the prime hours..
well, that's all for now..

well chinese new year (and the year of the rooster) has descended on us. hope everyone has had fun collecting angpows and socialising and whatnot.? heh. mine was pretty much uneventful. probably the same as everyone else. the usual visiting (more like people having congregations at my place. haha) took place.
went back to cathigh on tues. great to see everyone who i'm familiar with back there. its a wonderful feeling. seems like sec4 '04 never really split up. its like the good old days are back. went to town after that for lunch and pool and home for reunion dinner thereafter. quite an eventful tuesday filled with memories i guess (:
wed and thurs is usual stuff. won't elaborate much. got like 20 hongbaos so far. haven't counted the $ yet. will only do so aft the 15th day. so stop asking me how much i got already! i haven't counted it yet for goodness sake! but then again i'm interested in how much u have so post it on the tagboard :P
school on fri. if only ACJC was independent. RJ and HC declared fri a holiday for their students. wayy unfair. if not i would have either crashed the VJ x-country or gone out for pool. argh! so much stuff that i could have done. oh wells. gotta live with it i guess. one extra day of holiday passes by so quickly there is probably no point anyway..
visiting again today. first went to tov's place. her place damn zai can. so many amps. so many guitars. so many pianos its scary. the place is uber nice and well done up k? much nicer than my hole in the middle of bishan. haha. went over to another friend's place for lunch after that and off to the airport to send deb off. she will be missed. (:
that's all. haha. out!~

stupid me closed the window while typing this entry. now i have to redo everything all again. urgh.
i have no mood to update lately. i don't know why. i feel so tired. maybe JC life is sucking up all my energy. i find myself staring at my tutorials every night (and we all wonder HOW exactly they get completed), especially chemistry. i don't understand some of the questions in the tutorials. perhaps i'm not cut out for JC life after all (however, poly is NOT an option), although i seem to have adjusted quite well. what i really detest is the 4.30pm dismissal times. i barely have time for myself but i'm quite prepared to give it all up, really. i just don't know.

AC is still quite fun as usual. all the usual happenings and stuff. AC idol next friday. wonder how it will be compared to CH Music Awards. speaking about the latter, i can't wait to see this year's show and how my juniors will perform (: and CNY is next week. itching to go back to cat high to see everyone again.
