the day started out rather slow, with me wakin up at 10+ and slacking before heading to school..
i didnt feel nail-biting fear or anticapation like vanda did.. but there was some kinda fear of cos haha didnt feel like talking much.
boring irrevelent giraffa story by ms tan. analysis. well seems that we dropped a lil overall. ss/geog had a high distinction percentage thou =D however, ss/his was only 13% distinction! hai, feel sad for those who took history. e1 has the highest class average of 9 followed by e2 with 11 and e7 w 11.4 (O_o?? .4? lol)
next was the whirlwind of getting 6- and 7-pointers on stage.. i remember cheering n clapping like siao for all my friends.. hongyi, kelvin, mingfen, vanda, gabriel, zhiliang, likkhian... lots more of cos. quater of my class was on stage lol.. damn happy n proud of them and thought "they really deserved it!~ =D .. but was feeling worried for nya when she wasnt on stage..
well i got
english ----a2
ss/geog ----b3
maths ----a1
add maths ----a1
physics ----a1
biology ----a1
chemistry ----a2
chinese ----b3
when i first got it i was numbed.. wasnt absorbing or taking in. the slip of paper with text on it didnt mean much. was looking for L1R5. stupid moe didnt put it in. cldnt count. junio helped me. "nine," he said "you got a nine!" huh? haha was quite blur.
i was.. quite neutral abt it ^_^. not very good but definately not bad too. i had aimed for a 9 before i started studying. i had put my cutoff pt (to crying lol) at 14 and 9 was quite far frm 14. mom was happy ^_^ lol the conver went like this
me "i got 9"
mom"well done!"
me "thank you"
mom"welcome"
lol. so retarded.
did feel abit disappointed.. mayb cos midway thou the "getting 6/7pter on stage" i decided i wanted to beat chris n wesley who got 9s too lol. and also seeing all your friends on stage, u wish you could join them too..
later that day i was like =D for friends and they deserved it.. then i suddenly thought.. so that means i dont deserve it? afterall i did work hard. perhaps not as hard as them then. and i started late. right after the prelims.
some had it much harder thou. i know of someone whose R5 was 5 but L1 a 5 too. L1R5 10. what a cruel joke on her.. some really worked extremely hard and had high expectations of themselves which they didnt meet. some worked freaking hard but didnt do well. the worst fear of everyone. yes. other did have it worst la.
i'm a lil dissapointed but ok with mine la. afterall i did try my best.and it's a single digit. i got 1s for those which could be studied. english was expected. humans had alot of room for screw ups so b3 was ok thou hai cld hv prolly did better if i did another qn. lol. really dumb eh, wishing what could have been when it is really really long over lol.
now i do know i have a desire to do well, to be one of those on stage (but hey, actually i bet everybody wont mind being there too) so perhaps i should start doing my tutorials lol. i'm behind on tutorials ^^;; not touching my bag once i got home. pure laziness. yup. shall work harder for a lvls ^_^
which brings me to. NY or AJ? i had previously decided on NY based on the arguement i had friends and a gorgeous compound. however it's also quite slack.. i havent been doing my work. in tutorials, it goes slow.
in AJ i would be forced to mug cos everybody does so and there're freq test.. it's safer as i may slack away 2 yrs in ny.
however, ny has a much more fun feel and environment where ppl are ^_^ most of the time. when i crashed aj, it seems everybody was bored. perhaps it was that dreary building that gave that image.
i know i would thrive as well in ny if i can get myself to work hard. which is possible in view i managed to make myself study daily to 8+pm for 8 weeks once.. and "being a big fish in a small pond is better than being a small fish in a big pond" as mrs ho always says.. Means like AJ is a better sch so i'll prolly be an average stud there thus i may get less chances as compared to in NY
last point is aj's proximity.
and yucui's prolly stayin in ny.
btw. i published two entries b4 this. "mahjong at nianya's" and "escapade" (they were drafts)
