Maths test was a killer
Friday, February 01, 2008 9:45 PM
I wasn't updating for the past few days. You know I always give the same reason - busy. Anyway, school life in TJC has been great! Everything, even the projects(even though I was cursing the department while working on the Biology THINK project until like 2am). So, I was so darn happy when we finally did our Biology presentation in front of the class yesterday. I counted, we have had 6 projects to date. And it's only the 5th week!?!? Whoever said the first three months should be slack? I can't remember I'm in whose group whenever the teachers tell us to get into groups because there had been so many different groups for so many different projects. I'll just sit there and wait for someone to 'collect' me. Maybe I should try keeping a list or something.

We had swimming at Bedok Swimming Complex this morning. One word, tiring. Okay, maybe it's because I've lousy stamina, that is comparable to that of my grandma's. Even though we were swimming the breadth, not the length, it was still tiring. I don't know exactly how many laps we swam, but I estimated it to be at least 10. After swimming, we had to rush back to school because we were running late for lessons. So, we(Tracy, Hweeli, Mengjit and I) cabbed back to the college. I don't know why the driver went the long way instead of u-turning and going the short way. Kinda made our attempt to reach school on time futile.

And did I mention that I had no idea that we were going to have Maths test after school today? That is, until I reached the swimming complex in the morning, and then my classmates were talking about it. I was like, 'No, Maths test is next week.' Then they tell me 'No, it's today.' I still thought they were joking with me. After asking so many people, I had to accept the cruel fact that it was going to be held today. Seriously, I thought I heard Elmo say it will be held next week. I must be hearing things.

Maths test was a total killer. I thought 35 minutes was too long a duration for this test, because I totally didn't know how to do any of the 3 questions. So I just stared at the first question about 10 minutes, hoping that the solution to it will slowly appear on the paper like some Harry Potter movie. Seems like I didn't have any wizardcraft or witchcraft that characters in Harry Potter movies had because nothing appeared even though I stared really hard at it. Then I was like, 'Okay, maybe I can do the next question.' Went on to Question 2, stared somemore, this time for a few minutes only. Skip. Question 3. Stared, stared, stared. And then suddenly, 'Ah, I know how to do, I think.' Which turned out to be wrong when I checked the answer with my friends after the lesson. -.- I'm definitely going to get a 0/18 for this test. Great, I'm failing(very badly) for my first test in TJC and going to fail for every test thereafter.

Elmo said that the test was manageable(what the hell!?!?). My classmates could talked about their workings and answers after the test. I coudn't, because I had neither workings nor answers. Mr Ang must be thinking why isn't this girl isn't writing anything on her paper but instead staring at it. Man, where's the optimism I had for my Maths a few weeks ago?

School ended early and went to KFC(calories, calories, ahhh) at Bedok interchange with CG for lunch. Then went to 'Sheng Siong' to get some things for my mortal and friends. I said to go 'Sing Song' to get somethings and the girls in my class were,' Huh, we going sing song meh?' and then all laugh at me when I told them it's the supermarket. I'm kinda lazy to pronounce it properly and I always hear my aunt calling it 'Sing Song'. Anyway, I don't understand why people bother naming a supermarket with a name that isn't very easy to pronounce. I mean, NTUC, Cold Storage or even naming it The Supermarket is so much better.

Went back to college just in time for the CNY carnival. Hanged around for alittle while with the girls(Tracy, Shanmin, Kristy) and watched teachers getting dunked at the dunking machine. The bid to dunk Mr Tong(DM) went as high as $55 for 5 tries at throwing the ball!?!? Crazy. That's $11 for a ball. But someone did manage to dunk him. Shan must be so happy la. Haha.

We left at about 6pm even though I think we were supposed to stay still 7pm or something. Don't know la. Just tap ez-link card for attendance and then off we went, to Tampines Mall to meet the girls(the rest of the girls, Zhiying, Andrea & Tse See). Haven't seen them for quite some time. They watched horror movie but Tracy and I didn't want to watch. So both of us went for (candlelit) dinner at MOS Burger. Another crapping session. I don't know why but the word 'oh' is so hot now.

Finally got my W960i from my dad and my Heritage SI Boston Nike bag from my mum! Thanks Mum and Dad! But I was so busy yesterday and today that I didn't have time to read the manual. Yes, I'm a total noob when it comes to Sony Ericsson. I ended up running to Tracy for help on closing a certain window which I can't seem to close. Haha. Wenhui said that I called her when I was pretty sure I didn't, at least I think so. I probably pressed something without knowing. Haha.

Alright, got to go! OGL day camp tomorrow, reporting time is 8.30am. By the way, OGL camp yesterday was fun even though it was kinda short. Looking forward to tomorrow! Alright, I better go get some sleep. Goodnight! ^^
