guess i didn't do all that well for the block test judging from the papers that i have gotten back thus far.

it's ok though, i know exactly where i have went wrong and the marks i gotten were the result of some of the decisions i made and some because of stupid stuff happening (like me falling asleep at the start of the econs exams -_-''...)

works as a wake-up call too so i am definitely gonna do much much better for the mid-years!

on another note, i am being murdered by the stupid weather study project by senoko power station that have to be done by this week and then the presentation is like next week and we have only seriously started working on it last week?

it's like more then a pw cos pw has a word limit of 3000 words and this one is 5000???

not much chances of winning the competition but the first prize is a trip to Switzerland and second prize is $5000! and there are like only 1 team per jc? though it will go to those teams who made more of an effort i guess...

i just wanna get it over and done with!!!

Wow! What an eventful weekend!

it was really a roller coaster ride of emotions for me though, feeling happiness and sadness alternatively.

forgot to hand in the consent form for the meet the parents thingy and was forced to go hand in it on friday, kinda annoying, given the fact that i wouldn't even have to go to school otherwise.

so met tandy there and went to bedok reservoir for training. we reached way too early though, so we went for a run around the reservoir before the others came.

the training though was -_-''... it's been so long since we had training because of the block test, not to mention having the type of hiong training that we haven't had for ages after mr hee took over that most of us were shacked out by the end of the two hours so we all nearly died when mr hee said we were going to continue after the two hours ended. however, 20 minutes after we continued, mr hee could see that all of us were nearly dead and he let up since there wasn't anymore point to training further.

the training itself was horrible. it was like we have forgotten how to row after not training for two weeks and we were rowing like crap so everyone was like demoralized. not a good thing seeing that our race was in two days time so we decided to edit the plans we had for the next day a little for the team to get together again.

met vic on sat! it was cancelled initially so was quite shocking to see that it was on again when i woke up on sat. went down to meet her and seeing that it was rather late, we decided to cancel our plans for watching a movie to just having lunch and then walking around after that.

haha... no idea why but i just enjoy listening to her talk so it was a pretty good lunch.

oh yeah, we had kenny rogers! i think it's the first time i had it in singapore cos i only remember having it once in malaysia.

the food was pretty good, though the taste of the ribs was a little too strong such that it made the side dishes seem pretty tasteless and most of it went to waste.

Food! Mine is the one opposite with the ribs and half a chicken.

accompanied her to walk around and shop for a while after that. realized a little why girls like to shop so much cos there's like so much more variety for girls then guys? guys are like limited to mainly shirts and t-shirts with jeans and pants of either the long or the short variety while girls have like so much more?

shopping isn't bad, actually i think i enjoy shopping quite alot for a guy. though it would be alot more fun if i actually had the spare cash to spare to buy the stuff that i like, like the shopping spree i had last year after i got my pay and the other money from i forgotten from where.

haha... still felt a little uneasy in those shops where there are zero guys around though. but i am like getting used to it i guess. wouldn't even step into those shops in the past lol...

had gelare after that before sending her to her tution. ice-cream is nice!

haha... meet up more often k, vic?

went home to get my stuff before going to school to meet the guys after that.

was kinda late so they had already finished their soccer match and arrived upon the scene of them doing... *ahem to yihe cos of his birthday. lol... i think we are a bunch of sick ppl.

oh man... i have no idea what they are gonna do to me on my birthday -_-''... maybe i should just get sick leave for a week or something...

went for dinner before going to yiyang house after that. was actually planning to watch an inspirational sports movie but due to time constraints and other complications, we had to cancel our plans and didn't achieve much in the end... stayed over a yiyang's house before going for the competition today.

to cut things short, we did ok in our heats, much better then in the stupid training and managed to skip the lepacharge to go straight to the semi-finals, did good in the semis and got into the minor finals but did horribly at the finals to end up 4th, just 1 sec behind the first -_-''...

what's with the 4th man... had enough of it to last my whole life.

i guess it was kinda an unfair situation though, seeing that we were racing with people like nus and ntu while everyone had boats full of guys and we had 4 girls on our boat due to a lack of people.

but like mr lee said, that's not an excuse so we are gonna be put through intensive training for these 2-3 months.

prepare to like see me sleep in every lessons from now on.

though i guess it's also happening now so not much changes there lol...

woah, long post -_-''... anyway, here are some pics that vic took!

no need to tell me, i know i look horrible in those photos lol...i think the first one is the only would i didn't feel like dying the moment i saw it... no idea what i was doing -_-''...

still, it was a great time out!

and i want that freaking gold for the nationals!!!!

wohoo!!! block test is over~~

had a good time catching up with my sec sch friends after the test.

wanted to play mahjong at first but couldn't find a place+ we had too many people so we went to kobe's condo instead. i think living there is quite nice, you get compass point right outside your doorstep! plus he lives in the penthouse -_-''...

first we had a 2 hr chat, then tennis and then we played uno stacko. kinda weird activities but it was pretty fun since we had a good time chatting while playing as well.

can't wait for this weekend! it's gonna be a great one man!

oh yeah, just found this great offer if you are looking for an mp3 or something

oh man... the exams are not even over yet and i am in the holiday mood already!

there's only one stupid geo paper left tmr and i am done with the block test!

most of the papers was quite ok i think, at least i had an easier time with them then i thought i would have, given the amount of preparation i did...

speaking of which, the past march holidays was the most no life one in my close to 14 years of education!!!

gah. everyday is just wake up go school and study.

luckily, the company in school wasn't too bad and there were many fun night time chats, with people i didn't expect to too!

didn't exactly study finish what i should due to too much slacking during study time so i guess i wouldn't exactly score super well.

then again, i doubt i will do too badly either so it doesn't really matter either way since this is nowhere near my best effort or anything.

and i nearly fell asleep during the first 40 minutes of the econs paper today, nodding off after every few words i write so half the stuff i wrote were either illegible or are cancellations -_-''...

oh well, gonna have fun after the exam ends tmr! hopefully i will be able to have a great thursday as well before chionging for the competition on sunday!

oh man! studying is like killing my braincells.

the more i study, i more stupid i feel.

and it's not because i don't dun understand what i am studying but rather the feeling that i am filling my brain with alot of useless crap that i am just gonna throw away and forget the moment i finish my A levels...

so while studying in school, i wanted to study but i was welcoming any and all distraction like seeing random people walking pass and whatever stuff is happening.

end result? i didn't study all that much.

die... still got a ton to study and there's only two days left!!!

oh well, i don't think i will fail this time round but i won't do all that well either.

doesn't really matter though, seeing that block test is like useless?

worse come to worse, they can make me stay back for night study, which i am already doing anyway so there's zero difference.

what i am more concerned about is the lack of training!!

good grief, i don't think i have ever imagined that there will be an entire month where there is only 1 training a week!

at least that idea didn't occur at all last year where 3-4 trainings were the norm and 2 was already weird.

i think we are sick people because where else do you hear about people requesting for extra training?

master's series is coming soon! next sunday infact....

dunno how well we will do when there's so few trainings...

hopefully we won't do too badly otherwise it will like leave a poor impression on the juniors?

stupid race schedules that forever clashes with the exams...

i think i am gonna run riot after the exams...

there's so much i wanna do and no time to do them!

it's a torture i say...

gah... biggest mistake i made this year was forgetting that the cut off point for ny could drop as well and resulted in........

DAMN!

sentosa trip today!

it was ok i guess, pretty usual trip like every of ben heng birthday's celebration.

kinda nice to have your friends celebrate your birthday every year by going to sentosa isn't it?

at least you can be sure that there will always be people who will celebrate your birthday...

took the monorail to into sentosa for the first time today. quite a good idea, seeing how much faster we can get to the beach this way.

though there seems to be some problem with the card tapping system since it only seems to work half the time and they have to have staff at the entrance and exit to help out in case our cards don't work.

went down to k-garden at senrangoon after that and ya, turns out i was right about something.

most girls can sing quite well while most guys can't.

it's due to our pitch and stuff i guess.

pretty enjoyable day, gotta start studying for the block test though!

why do i always get this feeling that i always am about to make a mistake when i do certain things? worse of all, in the past, this feelings have always been accurate.

damn.

sigh... today is such a horrible day...

i am getting this feeling that jc2 shortens your life span due to the lack of sleep everyone is getting and how much it takes out of you.

3 tests in two days is just stupid because you can't study well for them anyway so i don't really see the point.

does anyone actually have enough time to do anything interesting to blog about anymore?

i guess i gotta wait for this sat's sentosa trip le ba....
