FREEEEEEEEEEDOM!!!!!

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
IT’S ALL FINALLY OVER!!!!
Today is also the last time that I’ll be wearing a school uniform. Hahas!
Okay… so had Chemistry Paper 1 today to round up the 3 week long war with A levels. Well, was not really too difficult a paper but compared to Chemistry Paper 2 and 3, it was tougher. So ended the paper at 3.15pm this afternoon and rushed off immediately. Hahas, weather today was just like yesterday, extremely hot in the morning and pouring just after 1.30 when I got to my exam venue. Therefore, I just walked in the rain this time around. Hahas… no more A levels already anyways! Managed to bump into the guys at the traffic junction outside my school. Hahas… so my rushing was not futile.
Now all that’s left to do is to clear up my A levels study notes and worksheets and what not, clear out my room, and then plan some Post Exam Activities for myself. Most likely going to find some paid work to do as well haha.
Then there’s also bowling, swimming, cycling and mah-jong! I will also need to tone up my muscles by starting a daily work out regime and stay out doors more often to get a good tan. Haha!
Well, the most important thing to do now is to go take a shower man! Omg! I just realised that I’ve forgotten to take a bath again last night and forgotten again this morning. Ooops!
More updates on my post A levels life coming soon! Ciaoz!

Something new is coming my way!

Yupp! A levels are over! As usual flipped through the LifeStyle section of The Straits Times newspaper when I got home yesterday to see what’s in store for my life after JC and the A levels.
Hahas, here’s what it said for 29th Nov, “You are in the mood for a change, so why not change your mind about something? Your energy can help you coast through any doubt and you may meet someone new.
Hahas, IKRRRR!!! This is so COOOL! Change is coming, that’s for sure! Less studying, more hanging out with friends.
Did the same today and here’s what it said for 30th Nov,
“There is nothing more exciting than finding a big change coming your way. See if you can get your peers to prepare for it. It is likely they cannot even see it coming yet.
Wow, cool! Horoscope for two consecutive days telling me that change is coming my way. And today’s horoscope reading further added that it’s a BIG change. Hahas… life is sure to be good!
Come on yeahs!
Big change! New life!

H1 Physics Paper 1

Brrrr! Brrrr! It’s cold!!
Well, it wasn’t like this earlier in the morning, when I just got to school that is. It was in fact really hot and sunny. So seeing as today is the second last day of A levels, and that I would have only one last paper after exams today, I decided to go outdoors after my paper today, maybe for jogging. However, not long after the start of my paper, thunder booming outside Discussion Room 3 told me that my hopes were dashed. Hahas! Indeed, heavy raindrops started pelting against the roof of the school building not long after and the rain became a downpour.
Sidetrack a little… so all this while I was doing my H1 Physics Paper 1. Hahas, the paper was relatively manageable as well, so I guess that it should not be too much of a problem. At least, there were quite a few questions which I was quite confident of the answers. Hopefully this paper 1 helps in me getting a H1 content subject A!
Okay, back to the rain…So the next time I had to worry about the rain was of course after my paper. So I was able to end my paper two minutes earlier thanks to the very understanding invigilator. So I was rushing, hoping to catch up with Jordan and Chee Koon. That would of course mean that I would need to get myself wet. Hahas… Haiz, just chiong lah! One last paper liaoz!
Just outside the school gates, I met some classmates. They offered to share their umbrella with me which I declined of course. Then, they jio me to take cab with them as they were headed towards Choa Chu Kang MRT station as well. So I ended up taking a free cab ride making many U- turns hahas. Dropped off a friend somewhere near Ten Mile Junction before making a trip back the way we came to pick up another friend before finally getting to CCK MRT. Three U- turns! Hahas, and fully paid for. Not by me!
When I reached my void deck, I then realised that I had an umbrella in my bag all this while! Lols… guess I was too used to not having an umbrella that I didn’t even make it a point to check. Haiz… Hahas, then again, should I have found out, I wouldn’t have had a free trip right? Hahahaha… wonder if I'll catch a cold or get a fever tomorrow lol!

ONE MORE DAY!!! TO FREEDOM!!!

The end is near!

Wow time flies! Woooots! Tomorrow, Tuesday…. And it will all be over!
Just two more papers to freedom! Gonna really enjoy it then. Already feeling the euphoria now! Hahaha!

Two more days to FREEDOM!!!!

NS phone

Went to buy another phone today for use during my NS period. We have got to use a non- camera phone in camp so no choice, have to get one. Hahas,it seems like quite a waste of money to me lols, seeing as I’ll only be in camp from 9am to 5pm daily. Haha…
Anyways, it’s a new phone from my parents so I’m not complaining. Hahas! So anyways, I’ve now got a Nokia X101, black with a blue back. Hahas!

Three more days to Freedom!

Cousin’s Stay!

Finaaalllyyy! My cousin went home today haha.
Well, my 9 year old cousin came over to stay with us for a couple of days this past week. Well, not saying that he was a nuisance, just that he had many habits which we were not used to. In fact, he was much more obedient and mature than most kids to be honest. Hahas, I had my maiden experience in cleaning the toilet during his stay here. I also had an experience of how difficult it was to look after a kid haha!
Well, it was a good experience! At least, he seemed more comfortable speaking with us during the last few days of his stay. Guess our efforts to bond with him were really successful! Haha…

Four more days to freedom!

Laze… Laze… Lazy Me!

Slept longer than usual yesterday lols! Went to sleep at about 1.30 am last night and woke up at almost 10am this morning lols… more than 8 hours! Hahas!
Slept in till quite late again today hahas…. Fell asleep at about 10.30pm last night. Was really tired haiz.. and woke up at 9am this morning lols. Slept almost half a day hahas! But tomorrow have Econs paper liaoz lols. Can’t sleep in hahas!
Dead beat! Hahas… sleep like a pig! Hahaha!

Econs Paper 2 revision

Woke up at 5am today lol. No paper today again haha!After waking up, I couldn’t go back to sleep already.
Surprisingly, I was still was wide awake throughout the day lehs. Lols… dunno why also!Maybe having a break from A levels helps…Hahas!
Anyways, Horoscope for Gemini today reads “Your mental energy should make school or learning enjoyable and much simpler. It is a good time to start a course of study, so look around and go for the next big thing.” So guess it isn’t odd that I’ve been wide awake all day? Hahas!
So I spent the day revising a little for Econs Paper 2 of course. Well seeing as this is the first day of a break of about five days before Econs Paper 2, I didn’t really study a lot haha.I’ve kind of been slacking today actually. Well, will have to make better use of my time for the next few days I guess. All the best for my Econs Paper 2!

Chem Paper 2

Well compared to the Econs Paper I had in the morning, this was really quite a breather man! Woots! Somehow felt that the Chem paper was really easy. Which was a problem lols. Throughout the paper I kept checking and double checking to see if I had read the question wrongly lol. Even after the paper had ended, I was still worried that I must have gone wrong somewhere lols. Really man! The questions asked were pretty much basic from what I could tell. Mostly calculation questions lol. Topics such as Chem Equilibrium, Chem Energetics which did not appear in Paper 3 were not tested again lol. So much for me having done so much practice on those questions. Oh yeah, and Organic Chem questions were also very little also. Haiz… anyways hope that I can do well for this paper haha. Gotta get an A or the least a B man. Looks like Maths and Econs GG liaoz.
Then again, seeing as both Chem papers were easy papers, it would most likely be moderated up so that maybe 80 marks to get an A lols. Now every single mark will be very important. Went home and checked the forum for opinions of the Chem paper from other candidates and noticed that most felt that the paper was easy too. So guess my worries were groundless hahas. Thankfully!
Hahas… thanks for hearing all my ranting about my papers yeah haha!
Three more papers to freedom! Jiayous! Hahaha…

Econs Paper 1

Had A levels Econs Paper 1 and Chem Paper 2 today. Did pretty okay I felt. To be honest, I found the Chem Paper 2 really easy. However, the Econs Paper was not as well as I would have hoped but managed with some answers that seemed considerably okay. Well okay, to go into more detail about my papers now.
Had Econs Paper 1 this morning at 8am. Did do some Paper 1 Case Study questions yesterday prior to the exam so was not too worried. Well, but worry started to creep in as soon as I opened the Econs paper. First question was a Micro question on Demand/ Supply/ Price elasticity and all that! Omg! I’ve literally forgotten about all these content that had been learnt quite some time ago at the very start of my Econs journey lol… Omg! To a person with a memory space of only 2GB(that’s worse than most computers nowadays, or a simple MP3 player lol), all these content seemed to have been learnt years ago. However, it wasn’t that bad such that I had forgotten everything about PED, YED and CED lols. Lucky for me, my JC1 content knowledge was pretty strong so I was still able to remember enough to know what concepts and content to apply. Due to the need to score as many marks as possible within the given time, I made a daring decision to start with the big marks questions first so as to secure more marks and leave the other (2m) questions for later. Wrong move man!! I spent too much time on the first big mark question that I started to worry that there might not be enough time to complete the paper. So I rounded up my answer as best as I could and moved on to Case 2 which I felt I might do better in. However, even as I looked at the answer that I had written, I was sure that it wasn’t going to be enough lols. Haiz, time was tight so there wasn’t much choice. Moving on, Case Study 2 was a little more familiar as it was dealing with Macroeconomics which was done in JC2. Think I certainly did better for my answer for Case Study 2. After that I then went back to finish up Case 1.
All in all, did not really feel very confident of the paper as I was not sure if I had used enough economic concepts and terms in my answers lols.I barely finished on time. Due to time constraints, I had to leave a (10m) question undone as well.
Haiz… tried my best to give answers that were somewhat adequate and satisfactory lols. Guess it’s all up to how the Cambridge examiners mark my papers.
All the best for my Econs Paper 2. It will really be the deciding factor.
Hoping for at least a C for Econs seeing as I’ve never passed my Econs paper hahas. It’s gonna be a huge challenge!

Chinese Drama Serials

Just started watching a new Chinese Drama Serials recently - 新还珠格格. A re- make of a similar one that I had watched when I was young, really young.In fact, even before primary school I think. This version is very dramatic and touching hahas!

Day 3,4 – Maths Papers 1 and 2

Well had H2 Maths Papers 1 and 2 yesterday and today respectively. Didn’t go too well for both papers I felt. It was pretty tough for paper 1. Came as quite a shock but I wasn’t panicking though. Just skipped all the questions that I didn’t know how to do and went back to them later. However, I couldn’t even start on most of the questions so it was still kind of pointless. Some questions even had later parts of the questions depending on the answer for the first part of the question so I lost lots of marks for those.
Haisz… More or less already gave up on my Maths grades at this point.
Well had more than an hour after I was done with all the questions that I could do. Therefore, I tried again on those questions which I had problems with previously. Did manage to get some answers but for the majority it still turned up blank. I was literally bored and freezing in there lol.
Paper 2 was slightly more manageable mostly due to stats portion of course. However, there were still a couple of questions that were really tough and I wasn’t able to solve them as well. Well, I did the best that I could to salvage as many marks as I could for both papers though. Hope it helps. Finished just in time for Paper 2 though.
Then answers of the Maths papers came up on forums real quick as soon as I got home and got online lols. But I didn’t want to compare my answers though. Hahas, this was despite me already knowing that chances were slim for my Maths Papers. Hahas, still I didn’t want to dampen my spirits further.
Shall do as I had with previous exams and not compare answers till the whole exam is over.
There were lots of comments on the Papers as well lol. At least most found the papers difficult so probably might be some chance that it would be moderated down? Hope so, but then not much help too I guess.

Day 2 – GP Papers 1 and 2

Wow… surprise surprise! Day 2 of the A levels sure brought along yet another surprise for me!
GP Papers today were quite manageable haha. Much to my relief man! Woots! GP Paper was one of the papers that I was more worried about. Now that it’s over, and it didn’t pose too much of a problem, I sure am relieved.
I picked a question on environment and economic growth for Paper 1. Haha, lucky for me there was a question on environment. That is usually my first priority. Hahas… as I wrote, it certainly felt more and more like an Econs essay on factors leading to economic growth lol.However, should be quite okay after some adjustments that I had made. I am certainly quite confident of this one. Should be able to score reasonable grades if I did not write out of point.
After a short break, it was Paper 2.The passage was one on environment and nature. As ideas from Paper 1 were still quite fresh in my mind, I didn’t have too much problem comprehending the passage. Haha! That really helped of course! That with the fact that I take an interest in the environment so it wasn’t too difficult… Hahas!
Then again, I was also quite surprised to find only one passage for Paper 2 Compre at first. Hahas was flipping and flipping looking for the second passage but couldn’t find it. Well, guess I’m just too used to having two passages. Then again, having only one passage was certainly much easier to handle.
As a result, there was less time required for reading the passages and I had more time in answering the questions instead. Well, I had more than enough time actually, had 45 minutes left for my AQ hahas. So I took my time in analysing the question and in picking out good points from the passage to argue. Well, the Passage was something about parks and the environment and nature… hahas my forte!So there was not much trouble in picking out examples from Singapore to use in the AQ.
There were lots of points available for summary as well. So all in all, a really good paper I felt!
Hahas! Now I’m energised for my next couple of papers! Yeah man! Woots!

Start of A levels

Hahas guess countdown to the A levels is over. Now, I’m going to be counting down to my freedom.Hahaha!
I had Chem Paper 3 today. Guess I can say it went quite smoothly.The paper was not too difficult I felt, which was surprising. In comparison to other papers that I had done so far, including Common Test, Prelims and the Mid-Year Papers, this was certainly a breather! Well, at least I could give some logical answers and could roughly figure out what the questions were asking for. Most of the tougher topics were not tested too.
Hahas…I sure do hope that Paper 2 will not be difficult, just like this Paper. However, recent trends have shown that either the Paper 2 or Paper 3 of Chemistry papers will be slightly more challenging. So guess it’s really down to luck?!
Well. A quick analysis of what I think may be coming out for Paper 2 seeing as I’ve not even seen a glimpse of these topics in Paper 3. Haha…
Analysis: topics such as Chem Energetics, Chem Eqm, Reaction Kinetics… have not been tested in Paper 3. Guess my revision for Paper 2 and Paper 1 will mostly be on these topics.
Yup that’s all for now. Ciaos!

So close to A levels…. Noooo!!!

Man! Guess I’m just unlucky huh! I am down with a sore throat. How nice!Not only that, I’m also down with some kind of a slight flu lols. Haiz… as if calling it a slight flu will make it go away any faster than it came…. Lols I’m crapping!
So I’m having some really thick mucus from the nose, not that it’s flowing or anything. It’s just that there’s some discomfort and everytime I blow, it’s really thick! I seriously dunno wad led to such a development lols. But I do know how the sore throat came about. It was really dumb actually.I just swallowed some food too quickly and got an abrasion against the throat. So ta da! I’ve got a sore throat! Seeing as it was due to an abrasion, should be gone in a couple of days… I hope.
Anyways, more about today. So I studied at Mac’s for 5 hours at Suntec City Mall and used at least four packets of tissue lol. All thanks to my “Flu”. That’s not counting the three trips to the toilet to replenish my tissue supply and the Mac’s serviettes that I used. Lol… so you can imagine. A large pile of used tissues after I was done studying.Haha. It really was a sight! Haha…. Disgusting! Didn’t bother to walk all the way to the rubbish bin each time I blew my nose lols. Hope the flu and sore throat go away soon. A levels is coming!!!

2 more days to A levels.... Jiayous!!

NS made some friends

Recently, heeded a friend’s advice and went online to google for ’10 Jan BMT enlistment’ to search for buddies who will be enlisting on the same day to the same camp. Indeed, I managed to locate a forum with others who will be enlisting on the same day. I made some friends real quickly. Then I added about four buddies on Msn and Facebook. Hahas, and then we started chatting. Most likely going to chat more soon. Guess it’s better to get to know some friends beforehand. Helps in ‘Ice- breaking’. Hahaha…

No more COE!!!

Lolol! I just realised yesterday that there were no more COE sessions. Lols… and I had been planning my revision with the intention of consulting teachers at COE lols.Haha.. so how did I find out?
Actually only found out as Imade it a point to wait for a Chem teacher to appear yesterday so that I could enquire where COE had gone lols. Haha! I couldn’t afford any chances for today as this will be the last day before the A levels exam begins. I really needed help with my Chem lols.
Finally as I made my way out of school after much searching, I passed a Chem teacher and asked her.
Was then told that COE had ended this week. She then told me to consult my Chem tutor if I had any doubts lols. Informed Chee Koon about the extremely alarming news immediately!
So no choice we made it a point to look for our Chem tutor today but was denied the consultation. Said she was busy. Haiz… How timely! Just gotta hope that stuff we are not sure of don’t come out lols. At least not until we have cleared up our doubts. A levels begins in three days.
After more enquiries, it turned out that COE had stopped this week as it is the last week before A levels lol… what a NOOB!
Such a crucial time! How can COE cease to EXIST!?!?

3 more days to A levels.... Jiayous!!

No more COE lol

Just realised today that there was no more Chem COE for this week lol. No wonder I could not find the venue for COE on Wednesday yesterday. Then I thought about it and sort of figured that perhaps since this is the last week before the A levels, all COE has stopped. Then I remembered that I hadn’t been to Maths COE since the start of the week as well. Which means that Maths COE perhaps has also stopped lol.
Big Problem!
Now there’s going to be no one to help me clarify my last minute questions for Chem before Chem Paper 3 next Tuesday. Told Chee Koon and we both agreed to go look for our Chem subject tutor tomorrow. Hopefully she’s free… or not? Imagine getting ourselves worried on the eve of exam. If there are basic stuff that we still didn’t know that is. Hahas...

Final GP consultation

I had another GP consultation scheduled today so had to be in school by 12.30 actually. However, Jordan smsed me just yesterday asking if I could inform the GP tutor that he will not be free for his scheduled consultation today. Seeing as his slot was just before mine, he also said that I could take that slot too. Agreed of course... much to my delight! Or so I thought… haha!
I then realised that I hadn’t prepared enough material to go through if I was to be having a 1 hour consultation. Oh man… that means I would need to do more work as well. Plus, I had to be in school a half hour earlier at 12 noon. The RV Paper 2 that I had done was sufficient for only half hour? So I decided to look through another Paper 1 question after I completed the Paper 2.
However, did not have the time lol. To cut the long story short, dragged the AQ for much too long and in the end did not manage to finish. Just didn’t know how to do it lol.
Got to school and GP tutor wasn’t at his usual spot though his stuff were there. Thought he went off for a short while and so I waited.
Then I went to check the schedule for consultation and saw that Jordan had stroke his name off the list already. Therefore I just assumed that the tutor had gone off for that period of time and decided to return later when it was my turn. Returned to my usual spot in the library and continued doing my revision for Physics Paper until about 12.30pm. I then went back to the table outside the staff room where I was to be meeting my GP tutor. He was still not there. Odd…
Therefore, I decided to wait again as he may have unfinished business and would probably arrive later. However, another 10 minutes passed. I then decided to call him on the extension number. Lol… I was to realise that I should have done that 40 minutes ago.
He received my call and said I was 10 minutes late!!!
LOL!! I was more than 30 minutes early actually. Man!He had been inside all the time! Time wasted lol!
Anyways, had 20 minutes left so went through the River Valley Paper 2 that I had done. Lol… it was a disaster. Did really badly for it. Even the summary question wasn’t done well. GG… the last GP consultation and I got such poor grades. Lol… could tell that my tutor was kind of worried as well. Haiz… left after he gave me some last minute reminders. Gotta make sure my A levels does not turn out this way lol!
At least my tutor had placed all the material we need for revision on the Internet. So guess it’s all up to me now. Jiayous!

4 more days to A levels.... Jiayous!!
