long week -.- at least block test was over and done with.
lets see....

thursday went out with almost half the class for a food outing to suki sushi in amk.
original planned number of people was 3, ended up 7 people went. coool. xD

nice masterpiece created by henry sean and wingki~ they used the caps for 2 icecreams, a lemon slice, 2 wads of radish, and something unrecognizable as the nose ._.


our very own seafood paradise at our table *mouth waters*

went to topone ktv at bugis today with jessie n ping. 7 hours straight singing -.- new record hahahhas.
too bad i wasnt singing for the most bit, cos i dunno alot of songs ma =x
had lots of fun anyway. who knows when will be the next time we can have fun together without the exams and studies bugging us -.-

nice drinks and "nice" translation for the black eyed peas -.-

ok enough bout that. the main topic is here.
i finally bought the DJMax Trilogy. i was like woots!
check out the picture. the game even has a thumbdrive as a personal ID and memory drive to keep your DJ details and stats.
pentavision has outdone itself with this release of DJMax.

but problem is.... it is a dvd... (3 dvds infact)... and this "new" comp doesnt even have a dvd drive =.= ROARRRR. all i can do now is to look at the smexiness of the discs and think about when i can actually play it T_T

somehow, somewhere in my life, there was a 180degree turn in my interest in subjects. from a person who detests chemistry and loves physics in 2008, to a person who loves chemistry and hates physics in 2009. im so out of phase with my old self (physics terms, bear with me. physics paper tmr)

and now, instead of being a physics teacher, i want to be a chemistry teacher >.> hmm. need to do a reality check on myself soon.

Labels: random, rant

As once said by a famous teacher in IJC :"You must respond with awe and wonderment!"
So i shall! WOWW!!! SO SIAN!!!

bleah. what do you expect for a long day of 8am-6pm in school, just for chemistry and physics? total K.O!

Went to school earlier because 西瓜 didn't do her chemistry and needed "reference", hence the 8am, for those who are wondering why i was in school 1 hour early.
Next, the horror began! the air-con wasn't working -.- stuffy, hot, deprived of oxygen, unable to think, yea that sums it up just nice. at least there wasn't anything that needed much attention...

went to KPT (the kopitiam's name. lol) to buy food with 4 of the guys, then 6 ppl joined in, then 2 more came along. machiam class outing sial. @.@ chicken liver is niicceeee

Physics was the real killer... on and on, almost non stop information barrage. for those who do not know physics, here's a picture.

honestly, the most torturing part of the afternoon was the "waiting for classmates to finish writing on the board". excruciating and agonizing does not fully justify the pain we went through. hahhas =x

okay maybe too extreme langauge. bleah

shit load of pictures coming =x okie not that many, but its the first time i posted so many in a single post, mainly because i didnt update the whole week. bleah


most of the past week ended at this time, meaning that i go home even later... bleah
block test has started, and i swear that CLB block test was the greatest joke in history. almost no one took the exam seriously. we were laughing and joking, guys were throwing paper around, tying strings tgt to making fishing rods, me revising my chem (yea hail the mugger) ...


lolol, ethanal + [Ag(NH3)2]+ = silver mirror! so cool. took us a few tries before we finally realised what we did wrong. i mis understood "just dissolved ppt" as "just appearing ppt". *faints*

went to the uni open houses yesterday. was quite boring, but i learned something. never did i thought that NUS had a PhD program. 8 years straight planned out already, assuming i'll do well in uni. right now im considering to take 2 majors, but i cant decide on which. faculty of science NUS is for sure, but its not easy. physics and applied physics/astrophysics/chemistry/organic chemistry. lololol *kills self*

NUS 8 year PhD program. Cant see shit, but yea, that's my goal.

NTU campus. The exhibition for NTU is much better, not to mention the freebies. lol

mehhh design, but the inside is almost like a crumpler. wheee~ hahhas

bought a frisbee at running lab, velocity, novena for SDG$29.00, thanks to her spotting it for me =X finally a sturdy and standard disk to play with~ it flies like a dream... (only when henry/aung latt throws it. wooooshhh~


food bites~
Boon Lay's Eat24Hrs small shop has some beautifully expensive yet nice noodles. its super out of the way for me, but since i was there for the NTU open house, and i would most likely never pass by there again, i gave it a shot. worth every cent (430 cents btw)



also, tried this at swensen's. the mega burger is super worth the price of 13.90. look at how thick it is >.> *mouth waters all over again*


ok last one was crap. doesnt matter ... lalalas. toodles

so, freaking, tired! but it was all worth it :D

i'll give the whole rundown on the events leading to and the event itself.

package collection in school. mr hamim gave us the paper bag containing all that we need and some goodies, which include.... this little carton of milo. aint it cute?

for those of you who never saw my mini phone before, this ain't a good comparison on how small it is, so heres a better comparison picture.

normal sized carton vs the carton we got. LOL so cute...

oh well, nothing much to say about the precedings.
lets fast forward to today.

woke up at 5:15 to get ready... messed around the kitchen for a self made breakfast (which smelled like crap, although taste is ok). rushed out of house for fear of being late, then 5mins down the road, i realised i forgot my shoes. like wtf? the most important thing -.-
went back home to get it, took a cab to HG station, took train to harbour front. met warren and siyi at vivo. joked around until the stupid skytrain started running. they open the skytrain service only at 7, so why the hell did the event organiser want us to register BY 7:30? nonsense -.-
then it started raining HEAVILY halfway to sentosa on the train. what luck. lol. at least it cleared up by 8:30, making the event postpone for 1hour.
insane queue for the bikes, met many innovians while queuing, talked alot of crap.

here's team tri innova individual category people~ (some of us anyway)

left to right, me n warren, qimin, pei qi and felicia.

the whole thing started at around 9:40. the water was freeeeezing, and i immediately felt how out of touch with swimming i was. regardless, i pushed on, losing track of the 3 girls. (warren was in the 1st batch, we were in 2nd batch. they had to release us 30 people at a time to prevent people killing each other accidentally in the water)
felicia ran on with her bike without us, so i didnt wait for the other 2 girls. biking was my forte, but i didnt put in much effort, knowing that my worst category, the run, was right after the biking. did interval sprinting, burning people occasionally (ironically, i drenched them instead of burn. floor was still wet and slick).
then came the run =.= i walked for abit, resting my legs, then qi min and pei qi catched up. i ran with them for about 600m, but i can't take it ._. pei qi shot forward, then qi min maintained her own pace, leaving me slowly walking around >.> walked alot, having the delusion that there was still 1 of them behind me. when pei qi burned past me on her last lap, then i woke up. ._. started running normally after that, and finished @.@

300m swim
10km bike
3km run
overall time 1:10-1:15, not sure, as there was no timing, and the start time was unknown to us.

alot of people cheated >.> the bike stint was 3 laps of 3.3km, from tanjong beach to beach station and back counting as one lap. many people did just two or even only ONE lap, then went in and went for their run. same thing for the running. 3 laps of 1km each, so some people only did 2 laps or less. well, normally i would care, but since this is non competitive, bleah. who cares if they have no integrity. lol.

just for a comparison again, this is the milo they gave us for completing the run. maybe its for making up for the small carton they gave us? XD


burned out but happy
peace~

eventful week ! some picktures, some explanations. lalalas

by eventful, i dont mean really eventful. ivan and andika shall now explain what i meant by that


hahhas okays its not that bad...
3 things worth mentioning i guess.

ichi) china scholars
dos) star lab
three) A lvls results release.

1 >>> from last monday to next friday i think, we will have 2 scholars from china who will be studying with us to "gain experience" about the studying life in singapore. its not easy for them to attend classes which are conducted in english, but they try. the girl does anyway. the guy does the same thing as ivan and andika. =x
not very easy communicating with them either. the difference in our accents is quite big, and singaporean chinese can be considered to be lousy compared to their standard of chinese, hahhas. suprisingly, the girl says that 我的华文很好啊！ omg? LOLLOL. i think its only because she understands my "accent", as i try to tweak it to sound like their way of speech and innunciation. still, i cant understand her very well. hahahhahahs

2 >>> well, the trip to the star lab is fun and educational, to a certain extent...
polaroid glass, iron fillings in oil, laser that almost blinded justina, diffraction grating, and this little baby for superposition. took a few tries to light up, thanks to my suggestion for making it light up at all, it was cool~ the change in the frequency sounded through the tube made the fire jump and squirm, and making a continuous wave form. not really observable through this lousy picture.



3 >>> and of course, the A lvl results release. the class went to the hall for the mother tongue results release, and i followed out of my curiosity. amazingly, we had 100% pass, and a 57.1% A/B rate. from the pic below, u can see warren's estatic face when he found out his A, and the girl china scholar in our class. (she's quite obvious, not wearing out uniform. lol)

grats to all who did well and above expectations :D


followed by a bigger event. its weird to see everyone not in the uniform, all in the hall, sitting down as if they are still students (technically they still are).
1st reaction > omg the 2007 cohort was so small?
2nd reaction > omg our 2008 cohort was that HUGE?
3rd reaction > panic attack for the results. mostly because if the seniors did well, we may get a day off. almost unexpectedly, the cohort did well, improving in pass and A/B rate and owning the national average for almost every subject. not sure that we'll get a day off though.

MUST STUDY HARD TO GET THE HONOUR ROLL! 3 As for H2 BABY!

grats to elisa for your ABB :D hope u get into the course u want.
grats to her for BBC. (super unexpected results)


on another unrelated note, i applied to be a GM for AkaiMS. not having high expectations, but bleahh. lol

peace~
