Prelims are coming up people.. com'on we can do it.. study hard for tis 2 weeks!! ok im startin to work hard now! hiazzz... now i juz haf to fine tune my chem... ive been practising hard for maths... studyin for bio... luckily i onli failed one RE which was diversity and evolution.. tt one almost everybody fail so i guess it wasn't becoz i couldn't understand it... but i got 0 for e essay coz i didn't study how darwin's theory of evolution provided evidence for homology... darn.. well tts bio haha apparently our syllabus is goin to b scrapped after tis batch of jc 1... becoz its too difficult... ya la i tink its ridiculous.. i hope they wud reward us with easier papers X)

anyway... i juz hired a private chem tuition teacher... he is suppose to clear up all e concepts misconception that i hav!!! my chem tutor is some slacker who doesn't explain anything.. e only thing i learn in class is that NO2- is nitrite and nitrate is N03-.. hmmmm... oh well mayb i didn't pay attention to him over this year because im always so tired after PDP days... i juz sit there n stone n my tutorials r always behind time...

anyway i realli hope i would get some decent grades in prelims... thats if everything goes well i hope e worse grade would be a C... but then again the papers r suppose to be SUPER difficult... as warned by the teachers, at least for BIO.. my teacher said that u get C is Good already... nvm i'll just commit everything to God... He was the one who changed me and i am what i am because of him for that i'll always be grateful..

-Jesus i believe in you-
-Jesus i belong to you-
-you're the reason that i live-
-the reason that i sing-
-with all i am-

=) =) =)

And the country has just turned 42.. and im getting older.. e other day during econs class.. i was rubbing some deep heat on my degenerating muscles and mrs cheng asked wat was tt smell.. n of course i told her it was deep heat.. then she asked y im havin a muscle ache.. n i said

im getting old.. n she laughed...

haha i noe =_=" today i got dragged out of e house to catch my sister's performance at the opening of the National Musuem.. yes its open.. n entry is freeeeeeeeeeeeee.. woohoo.. we went early to make sure there were parking lots.. yea we were kinda early.. e muesuem hmm looks pretty much e same except for e unveiling of the newest wing, the National History Gallery... i didn't get to go due to e long queues...... =( oh well anyway outside tt wing if u do go there pay careful attention to e ceiling!! there is this row six red chandeliers that r swinging like pendulums!! its so welcome-to-harry-potter..

anyway after tt we went to raffles hotel to eat at some deli restaurant.. supposed to b famous for their fish n chips but to me.. err e fish looked kinda overcooked... i had pumpkin soup, chicken caesar salad n of course e charred fish n chips.. fortunately e pumpkin soup did not disappoint.. sylvia i'll bring u there to eat someday.. e pumpkin soup is realli goooooddd.. its nice n creamy n taste of course like pumpkin n its ORANGE!!

after tt walked ard Raffles Hotel.. nothing much la.. their toilets r air-conditioned.. cool eh' haha

was juz servin some uni websites... to apply for uni of western aust & monash i haf to sit for ISAT.. my goodness... i juz hate e tot of tests!! n someone gif me some inspiration to write my personal statement plsssssss.... haha anyway i dun tink my chances at UK uni r high.. of course if i get in i wud b realli glad.. but goin to e UK means i'll b some poor student n i can onli fly back onli once a year.. compared to 4 times a yr if i go to aust.. so much beta rite.. n i wun b so poor if i go aust X) beta food n more $$$ n got friends there somemore...... oh well tts if i get in.. if not i'll juz head to SMU n do some degree... =) tt wud b nice

to avoid disappointment sometimes one haf to take an open-minded approach to life.. but perhaps that wud be perceived as a lack of determination??

alrighty i gotta go back to study land... diversity n evolution is drivin me nuts man.. haven study finish yet =(
