i'm in my room and gazing at the ceiling,
and all i get's feeling,
that its closer everyday y'know

It's a sprint to the finish line.

It's the final lap of our 4 year race to the big O's. 38 days left. 38! No more procrastinating, no more slacking, no more day dreaming.

Prelims results are like the worst ever, or at least the most shocking. I really screwed up my chemistry paper. I got 9/30 for the essay question. 9! I was totally expecting a B3 or an A2 at least. I ended up with a B4. Gonna have to refresh on my basics for chem. Read and reread Chem Yeo's notes until they are imprinted in my memory and attempt the ten year series.

Physics was badly done. Although i got one of the higher marks, i thought it could have been much better. Made stupid errors here and there and left out the last page. Niceness. Plan for physics? Well i think my concepts are quite there already so i'm just gonna attempt O' level papers. Then memorize notes 2 weeks before the O's.

Biology was an A2. Not exactly satisfied with the result. I think it's due to the fact that i did the essay parts badly. Didnt really study for certain chapters and those came out. I'm making Bio notes now...just finished. I think i have about 4-5 more chapters to go. Doing them selectively.

English was an A2. I think my paper 1 saved me. I need to work more on my comprehension. I got a 11 or 12 out of 25 for the compre. Summary was surprisingly good this time. Although i think i was lucky. I need to practice more for that. Plan for English? 1 practice paper a week and 1 compo a week. Time for SJJ to have no life.

Combined Humans was an A1. Although i have to redo some notes but i should be fine. Plan for CH? One set of SBQ's a week. Yeah...LWL...you're gonna have no life now.

Amaths and Emaths were a disapointment. Although both were A1s, they werent in the safe 90% range. Never made so many careless errors before. Must cut down on those!

So the plan is simple. 4 weeks for making notes and doing papers, 2 weeks before O's for hardcore memorizing. Hope that works out fine.

I can do it. I will do it. I shall get that 6 points...You're MINE!

Now If I Were That Puppy...

Just Believe.

Alright. Let's set things straight. It's now or never. I can only do this once, and i'm gonna do it right. 7 weeks left to "O" Levels. No more distractions...nothing. It's gonna be crazy, it's gonna be mad, and I cannot be more ready for this than ever.

That being said I need to set certain restrictions from here on. I shall remove the computer, the guitar and limit my computer time to 1hr on weekends and 1/2 hr on weekdays. Need to organize my study schedule and prepare all the necessary stuff for MugFest '09. Let's see...a stack of foolscap, all my prelim past year papers...and coffee? Haha.

I think I shall try and not study at home. I really think my house isn't the most conducive place to study at. But i don't want to study with more than 4 people. I think 2 or 3 people is the best. Anyways I need to find a good location. School sounds cool for now because i can't think of anywhere else which would not be a distraction at the same time.

I can do this. This is my only chance and I'm not gonna blow it. Endure everything for the next 7 weeks. Just 7 weeks left! I can do it! I know I can and I WILL.

p.s. I think i will keep of Facebook seriously this time round. This is the final lap of the 4 year race and I'm not gonna let that get in my way.

I'll Be There For You....

Alright. I'm here now. Where should i start? uhhuh! Prelims just ended. Feeling a little lack of confidence in physics, chem and amath. Physics paper 2 I panicked cause i think i lacked time, so i coudnt think properly then i left the last page out. Chemistry i thought the paper was just weird. Like the way the questions were set. I can't really grade myself for paper1 though. As for Amaths, i think paper 1 i did rather ok but for Paper 2 i'm hoping an A2 perhaps? worst b3.

Anyways results should be out next week latest i think. Gonna take it easy till next Monday. Next Monday will be the beginning of the craziest 5-6 weeks of my life. I think i'm just gonna whack past O lvl papers everyday. I shall try and cram at least 2 if not 3.

I'm afraid that i can't concentrate at home now. If i lock the computer away, i will still walk around and like day dream at home. Zzzz unless i go to school...hmm i think that sounds conducive.

Hmmm what else should i talk about...yeah ok so FuturePlan. is taking part in the Saints Got Talent thing for Grad Nite. but we are facing some kind of a problem. We are missing a bassist. Russell doesnt want to play now for god knows why. Unless WE (that means you, Adam, and Mervin!) can convince him that 2 -4 hrs of practice wont harm his studies at all.

JK, Jerald, Adam, Mervin, Solo, Bart went shopping for Grad Nite outfits yesterday. Spent 6hrs where our legs became freaking jelly. Bought a shirt, a pair of pants and a vest. JK, Jerald and Adam bought the same stuff only different design and brand and Adam didn't buy a vest, and Mervin only bought a pair of pants cuz he thought that vests were gay and is not trying to toy with the idea that it ISNT gay. Yeah.

Oh yes...i almost forgot. haha. Chinese 'O' Level results came out during our prelims 2 weeks ago. I got a C6 which is a pass. Was very relieved to find out that i passed. Although i kinda wanted to retake cuz a C6 definetely won't look good on my report card...admist all the As...AHEM, i thought that my chinese foundation was never strong so it be hard to even maintain a C6 if i don't study, which is what everyone tells me to do, retake and dont study for it, but i think i would fail if i did that. So i think my time is better spent polishing my other subjects.

I realized that alot of people think i want to go VJC in the future but somehow deep inside (yeah...deep) i kinda feel that SAJC sounds better to me. I don't know why. Maybe cuz of the fact that most of us would be going there. But my mum really really wants me to go to VJC saying that a good JC would make alot of difference in the future. Also, i notice that SAJC's standard drop by quite abit. And my neighbour (who's from SAJC) told me i shouldn't go there if i can. She says that alot of the experienced teachers are quitting SAJC and very few teachers are left with at least 5 yrs of experience (this is for GP and civics tutors only, she didn't say about the science stream cuz she's in art). Abit of a dilemma here. But i think i shall focus on getting as low as i can get first without considering anything and leaving everything open.

So the next few weeks will be crazy. I hope i can come up with some kind of mugging plan.

Crazy is the forecast for the next 5 weeks....

f=ma / atq+2(st+ev)+ pp

Prelims have begun! That's a good thing? A Maths paper was today. I thought it was rather easy. Could do every single question. I think i got careless at some parts. So definetely not 100% haha. Left out 1 part qn cause i couldnt figure out how to do it. Then when i realized how, 2 mins left and i was like AHH! So i just stoned till the time was up. :(

Been mugging like a retard. Can't wait for prelims over so i can have some time to relax abit before going into study craze again. Need time to get a new guitar!

Back to prelims again. SS and Physics paper 2 tomorrow. Not so worried for SS. Only physics paper is really worrying me. Haha.

Now if you don't mind i have to get back to memorizing formulas...



no. not physics formulas you dummy...



Social studies source based formulas...


Gotcha there didn't i?


I bet it did. ;)


Admit it.

they say love is patient.

It's been so many months but i still can't feel your hands.
Will time roll by knowing we will always be apart?
Or will time be sane,
and let us meet together again.
For it's the hard times like these,
that you enter my heart.
It's you that keeps me going
in hope that you'll be there at the end.
If love is patient,
you'll be there at the end.

The Storm Approaches

Almost 2 weeks since my previous post. Don't expect a long one here. I realized out of sudden realization (ok, that sounds weird) that i didn't post pics of my birthday on here. I should be doing that soon.

Lots of things have been happening the past few weeks. I shall try and remember them for sake of pinning them down on this blog. Hmm...

Last Saturday Bryan had a chalet and alot of 4SA went. Had BBQ and a few of stayed over played cards and watched stupid movies and wrestled on 4 beds that we joined together in the living room area. Haha.

Been preparing alot for the upcoming English oral exams the past weeks. We had a mock exam today. I think i did quite well. Or at least i like to think that i did. Phy, Bio, Chem SPAs coming up next week. National day is next week. Prelims are in 2 weeks!!

Prelim orals start on Monday! Hope that goes as planned. Trying to rush prelim studying to finish most of the topics briefly in 2 weeks. Then concentrating again on them again after Prelims. I shall try and stop studying by 19 October! Hope i can!

I really can't wait for Friday the 13th in Nov. Chem paper 1 also known as the LAST PAPER. I really wonder how it would feel like at the moment they say "time's up. Put down your pens" haha. Imagine that!

Snap back to the present! Don't drift away! Still alot to study! GO GO GO!

The Clock is Ticking

25 Days left to Prelims. I think i really will not be going online anymore unless i really have to do notes or type stuff out. I think i'll only access facebook at the end of the week for less than an hour. Access the computer only on weekends and on Saturday nights.

I should try and finish the entire physics syllabus by this week. I'm gonna try. Try.

Check out the new NDP song for 2009. It's by Electrico. I think its a healthy change from the old "anthem" like songs. So tell me what you think yeah.

Wake Up The House Is On Fire

It's been bugging me for almost 2 weeks. I just thought posting it would make me feel better. I been feeling quite down lately. I'm doing pretty well hiding it. It's good for them they say. Not good for me. Well maybe cuz i don't have the guts to tell that person. Or maybe i'm just afraid of repercussions. I don't want it to happen again? Well i really am confused on what to do.

I need that quiet place in Cinderella Man at the top of that hill overlooking the city and just screaming my lungs out there and just letting it out.

I just feel like screaming really really loudly into the open air. But there doesn't seem to be a place to do this. I really feel like just letting it all out. It's like a mixture of anger and frustration and sometimes a "am i over reacting" feeling. I think the latter may be quite true. I really really need to talk to someone. Getting harder to concentrate on revision and i just need to get it out. I gotta tell that person...soon. Before it eats me up from inside. Which i think it's already attempting.

Don't worry i ain't turning emo. It's just one of those times...y'know only this been quite long already...sigh.

He Fell Asleep Again...I think

Ok i been doing History notes with Jerald. It's 11.56. His last msg on msn to me was at 11.16. He never said anything and now he's not replying. It happened on Friday because he fell asleep at the table. Now i'm thinking its happening again!

WAKE UP JERALD!

Ahh nvm. I'm off to bed anyway. He's gonna get it tomorrow.

You Gotta Hold On!

"As the sun beats down
On the halfway house
Has my conscience beating
The sound in my ear
The will to persevere
As I reach the break of the day

When you lost all hope and excuses
And the cheapstakes & losers
Nothing's left to cling onto
You got to hold on
Hold on to yourself"

Yep. We are almost halfway there, gotta find the will to perservere and hold on! It's gonna be a tough road ahead!

Just finished the entire Trigonometry chapter in the ten year series. Did about 80% of the 32 questions. Feels good to have accomplished that. Over 2 days. Gonna concentrate on the weaker topics first. To maximize my output. Somehow, when you put things in your mind onto paper, or basically transferring them to another location, i.e. here. Speaking of which, today Matthew asked what i.e. meant and well we weren't too sure either. So i took the liberty of getting it looked up.

Apparently, they all come from latin terms.

• "e.g." Exexpli Gratia - for example
• "etc. Et cetera - and so forth
• "i.e." Id Est - that is
  

So there you go. I never knew they were latin. Haha. And as i was saying, i thought transferring plans from head to somewhere physcal helps play out the whole plan much easier. So here goes:

Stuff to do today:
1. Finish 4.2 Notes.
2. Revise Organic chem
3. Buy stationary and Chem TYS (paper by paper)

I think that's enough for one day. And if there's time, Kinematics - physics.

Well 33 days left. That leaves me with very little time. I hope i have the strength to pull through. I WILL! TAEBANG! Oh and speaking of which, i have 290 WON! I think that's 33cents singapore.

Sing Us The Song of the Century

"They're playing the song of the century
Of panic and promise and prosperity
Tell me a story into that goodnight
Sing us a song for me "

Ok so oral was pretty much screwed. Plastic surgery was the topic. Can you believe that? And i didn't mention MJ. Ahh screw it. It's over, must get over it. Went to blow of steam after oral with Solo, Clayton and Bing at LAN. Played DotA and L4D.

Past few days been quite hectic. Doing lots of maths in class and after school. Just realized a few days ago how close the Prelims is. Closer and closer...running out of time. Gotta mug already.
Already planned out study tables and checklists. Gave Solo a copy cuz he said he wanted one.

Watched the MJ Memorial the other day. Very sad ending. His daughter went up on stage and said something and cried.

So it's gonna be very very crazy the next few weeks. So lesser posts yeah? Lesser facebook, lesser everything.

Bye...for now.

Touch of the Tongue, Teeth to the Lips

Chinese Oral is tomorrow. They are out having sushi. It's youth day. I'm at home. Practicing Chinese. Yeah. Sounds about right. Freaking nervous now. Can't seem to get any work done. Wasted the entire weekend. Didn't do much. Managed to get a teeny weeny bit of revision done.
Can't wait for oral to end.

watch! the last part is the best (5:11) ---------------->

The 2ND MINI ALBUM!

SNSD released their 2nd mini album in less than 4 months after the 1st mini album release. That's fast. Really fast. Well it's a mini album after all. I got the album yesterday. And as expected i think they rushed the release of the album. SM entertainment should have taken their time with the next album than jumping the wagon just to monopolize on the Gee Syndrome.

Ok fine, i won't say the album is just ok. It's not that bad. I think Girlfriend is my favourite so far for the new album. The last song is...BLEAH. Got some guy singing...don't even know who.

Ok ok must talk about the new term. With the H1N1 precautions and all, they switched back to the classroom system. Originally we were in the homeroom system, where you got from one class to the other for different subjects. Right now we're stuck in the same room the whole day! It's like primary school all over again!

The school canteen also changed. ALOT. All the previous canteen vendors are out. Only the malay stall left. They have 2 noodle stalls now and a japanese stall. And sad to say, the japanese stall food isn't the best. I thought it was ok considering the price 2.30-2.90 which is way cheaper than outside, so can't complain. I heard the food portions are now smaller and everyone's going back to the malay stall! Cause its the same as before. :D

Been staying back in school till 7 doing homework, playing frisbee, getting distracted. I think we need to procrastinate less and make our work time more effiecient.

O level chinese oral is on the 7th. Can't wait to get it over and done with!

Ok 1st post for the week. Which leaves me with 2 more posts for this week. So BYE BYE

BOOHUGGY!

Murder City

"Desperate
But not hopeless,
Desperate
But not helpless"

School starts tomorrow. 4 more months to go to Os. 3 months to prelims. Haven't really been studying this June. Which is a big blow right now. Gotta start cramming, mugging, studying, they all mean the same thing. Need to blog less. Play less. Get distracted less. STOP PROCRASTINATING!

Needless to say but i think i'm really screwed if i don't start tomorrow. Yep. NO FACEBOOK! Less blogging! Play Left 4 Dead, Sims 3 only on Saturdays and Sundays AFTER I FINISH STUDYING! Gonna be very difficult. The holidays surely destroyed the studying momentum.
MSN only after 9? Yeah i shall try! Sleep earlier!

MUST START STUDYING! So don't expect daily posts. Maybe thrice a week? or twice a week. We shall see.

Anyways you gotta watch this. Awesome piano solo at the ending!

Under The Iridescent Sky

So Sentosa was not bad. Although it it was drizzling on and off. Played Frisbee and abit of American Football. Then went into the water for awhile. Did random stuff in the water...by then it was already 4+. So we showered, changed and went to play LAN at Park Lane for about 2hrs. Then had dinner at Long John Silver. Then went home. Wasn't the best Sentosa outing but it was ok.

Etude and the Genie MV came out!! Check it out! The leg moves are kinda weird but SNSD always Fighting!! Can't wait for the full album release!



Today went to school to clean up the classroom with Adam and Mervman. Then slacked alot and had lunch at KFC. Was mkaing a joke about how KFC didnt have "non fried" stuff. Cuz i was having a minor sore throat. Lol. So i had the salad thingy. But it had fried chicken in the end. so to hell with it. Then Bryan Wong called, asked if we wanted to watch a movie. Me and Merv wanted to watch a movie today anyways so we all went. Bart came later and he joined us too. So we headed down to Orchard to catch it.

Loved the movie. 21 Guns played like 4 times during the show! haha. Nice one. I'm not a follower of the Transformers cartoon show and stuff but the movie was good. Effects were stunning, the plot was hilarious and serious at the same time. The Twin Autobot guys were damn funny. And the Sector 7 agent guy from the previous show was hilarious too. Lots of funny mentions like Swine flu and Obama in the movie.

After the movie, went to Hereen HMV to find SNSD albums cuz we read on Soshi that they stocked it there. Searched for about 15 mins in the Korean Music section. couldnt find!!. Went to the counter, they said they only sold the 1st album but it was out of stock. AHHH!

Then we went to Taka and had dinner there. Ate KOREAN! lol. On the way out met Andrew, Claudie, Dil and Josiah at Ajisen. lol. Coincidence? haha. They just watched Transformers too.

Ok it's getting late now. Enjoy Etude! Gotta finish holiday homework tomorrow and do abit of revision!! Then on monday, BACK TO SCHOOL! Lol. No morning assemblies, temperature taking...all seems too familiar. Except the assemblies part. ok that was random and lame...

oh ya almost forgot. Michael Jackson passed away today. So sad :(. yeah that was it.

One. Twenty-One Guns.

21 guns music video came out yesterday! check it out.



New SNSD song came out yesterday! Tell Me Your Wish (Genie). The rest of the album comes out on the 25th! Wheee! :) Can't wait! NOOOO they just postponed the release to 29th june! OMGWTH.

Watched Drag Me To Hell just now with Solo, Adam and Mervman at PS. It was scary/funny in a way. Like they trying to make a joke out of it? It was quite stupid in a way. Although some parts were quite freaky.

Day before, went with Adam to see Mr. Success at PS. Guess who? Haha. I think he totally nailed it with her o.O! Way to go Merv! Tabang!

Tomorrow SENTOSA! I hope i feel ok and it doesn't rain!

Marine Girls Mania

SNSD FIGHTING! Girls' Generation is releasing their 2nd Mini Album on the 25th! That's a few days away! Can't wait!!!! Hope it sounds like a mix of their new and old music. It would sound weird actually...lol. Love their new Marine Girls theme.




Watched the last episode of Cinderella Man yesteday. It was like a super happy ending. Abit to surreal for my liking. And i think it would have been better to progress the ending abit more slowly and extend the series by a few more episodes. It was like they were rushing the ending and couldnt wait to end the show. DAMN SAD THAT IT ENDED!!! :( But i loved the ending. Ironic isn't it? lol. Yoona 성공!

Made my easiest $60 today. Gave out flyers for Bryan Wong's mum who released some kind of childrens' book. Gave out at Parkway and Takka for 3-4 hours. Lol sadded that Andre couldn't come haha. He did last week already anyways. Tomorrow gonna do 1 hour...and $40!!! It's gonna be the easiest 100 bucks i'm ever gonna make.

Came back from Malaysia yesterday. Was quite tiring. All in all, didn't do much there. Just walked around shopped abit and that's pretty much it.

I bought The Time Traveler's Wife today. Can't wait to get started.

DRAG ME TO HELL ANYONE?

KL Day 2

Woke up today damn tired! Watched episode 15 of Cinderella Man until 3am. Call me crazy. I couldn't wait any longer! 2nd last episode! Woke up had breakfast at some cafe nearby. Then went back up, slack awhile. Then headed off to Mid Valley Mega Mall. Walked around for about 2 hours, had lunch, then i met Adam and his bros in the arcade. lol. Played a few games with him, his treat. wheee! Lol thanks anyways =D. Bought 2 shirts at Topman which were on discount. Then my bro bought a pair of shoes. >.> even though i was sure you could get that in SG. Went back to the hotel at 5+. Rested, then left the hotel at 6.30 for dinner at Pavillion, which was a lot like Paragon like that i think. Had Thai food! Wahahaha.

SNSD releasing their 2nd Mini album! Can't wait!! 25 June! And they recently had a photoshoot. Totally cool theme! Marine Girls! Wahaha. Not bad not bad...AND EPISODE 16 IS OUT ALREADY! OMG OMG OMG!!
