Hmmm... it seems that I can almost see the end of A levels already. Suddenly feel a bit empty inside my heart. But who cares. I feel the freedom of one month of holiday with nothing attached to me at all. After that is army though.

Actually today and yesterday is the 2 most intensive days for me consecutively. Yesterday I had Math S, and today I had Physics Paper 3 and F Math Paper 2. After today's papers I felt so tired, but I still go and watch movie with Kep Kee they all. It turns out that the Math S is quite standard (S stands for standard). They are not as willing to give you the marks as in Math C, but then I still managed to grab hold of them. Hope to get full marks, then confirm distinction liao.

With the conclusion of F Math Paper 2, I have finished all my F Math papers. Although I keep saying F Math Paper 2 is the most difficult to handle, it turned out that today's paper was managable. Managable to the extent that I used only 1 hr 30 min for it! That's even less than the time I used for Paper 1! So total time taken for 2 F Math papers = 3 hr 30 min < 4 hours. Mission accomplished. Time taken to complete for 4 Math paper = 5 hr 50 min < 6 hours. Hmmm... not a bad achievement...

But then with the end of A levels comes those university applications... Procrastinate some more!!! Now panic liao loh... Haiz... Too slack to handle all these before the A levels, causing this much trouble now. But then I seriously think my chances of entering US universities is quite slim.. I don't know why also. Better not be so pessimistic, because normally things will turn out that way. Duh. Sianz...

Hmmm... I didn't blog for the previous few days, because either I was out studying, or going to visit relatives, or staying in front of the computer watching One Piece. Episode 117 is out, but my computer is so slow it is still downloading Episode 51-60. So sad...

Very sian recently, because it is a sprint to the end of A levels already, but because of the long holiday break, I have lost my momentum to study already. In fact I don't have much momentum to start with anyway, so I have lost it totally already. And to think that while 100% of GP and 100% of Math are already over, only 10.96% of Physics, 20% of Chemistry and 0% of F Math are over!!! Damn sian...

Getting tired very easily recently. Is it due to the lack of sleep? Or is it I have been waking up too early recently? Just now slept in the Math Paper 2 and now I have got a bad headache. So slept for a while and went on to the all the 30 questions. I can practise for my F Math this way also. Mission accomplished. Heh. Time taken to complete Math Paper 1 and 2: 2 hour 20 minutes.

Now to set new target for F Math. Looking at today's Paper 2, there are far more thinking questions than I have expected. So maybe there will be more in F Math. So I will have to go and brush up on my basics so I can manipulate all my knowledge to answer those questions. Hehe. Target: Time to complete both F Math Paper 1 and 2 <4 hours.

Quite fun to challenge these targets. But it is not practical at all because it won't be recognised by the society. Like they care about how long you take to complete your paper like that. That's why I keep saying to myself to stop doing things that are not recognised by others. Like collecting a whole set of bus service guides. Like anyobdy will care. Don't know how to strike a balance between personal challenges and practicality leh. Don't care lah. As long as I am happy that will be good.

Of course the most fundemental target would be getting an A. So sad that I didn't set these targets in O levels, then I would have put more effort in doing those papers. I saw today's question on proving the angle bisector theorem. I was so shocked because all these years I have been using this theorem without actually having to prove it. Still managed to prove it haha.

Life is getting more and more sian now... Stepping out of the regimental school life to a more regimental army life. Then will go into university where there is a lot of freedom... How? Haiz. Maybe I should walk one step look one step. At least not now. Must concentrate on exams...

Been thinking too much recently liao. Especially now when I'm zuoboing. Sianz.

Haiz... So early come to school to study only to find nobody in reading room. Only Gordon beside me now. So sian. Should start studying soon I guess...

Yesterday is another boring day, lagging at home doing nothing. Recently there is a craze about Bittorrent, which is a file sharing programme so much better than kazaa. But NTU server went to block it!!! I think it has been lagging the server or what, but then now my brother and sister all used my computer to bittorrent all the movies and drama serials. So my computer is lagging severely now! I would expect the computer to crash or hang several times a day. Haiz. And I still have 70 more episodes of One Piece to be downloaded. Haha. Sigh...

I think today will be a smooth day, the weather also very nice...

Downloading Liero now to play :)

Hmmm... Yesterday I had my Maths Paper 1. I shan't comment about it.

Today is Wednesday!!! Sianz... Lag at home the whole day doing nothing. How? Now still so slack. Must start studying liao.

Still can't. No motivation. Hmmm...

See tomorrow how loh. Happy Deepavali. Cannot touch Little India or I will get stuck inside or anywhere near it. Perhaps I will go Woodlands.

Or should I just stay at home and wait for Friday to go study in school?

The next paper is Math Paper 2. Hope everything goes on smoothly.

Freak loh... Must be one of my unlucky days. Opened my blog and left it there to go to the toilet only to come back and see all these crap. Must be Peng Kiat who came to meddle with my blog. Gah! And I don't feel like deleting it.

And the Chem Paper 3 is totally crap. Everybody has been speaking like they are going to get full marks, scaring the hell out of me. I don't have a good feeling about this Chem paper, because it is quite easy, so I cannot gain an advantage by solving those harder questions... I guess I have to work hard for the last 2 Chem papers already.

Tomorrow is Math Paper. Hope I can do well in it :) May you all do well also.

Oh yah. I have decided to delete the last post. So tada!!! Can't see the crap post now.

Sian!!! I just woke up... I guess I was very tired... Despite lots of calls asking me if I want to go and study my body still resist the temptation of lying on the bed. See lah... I wasted so much useful time which I can use to study Chem...

And I still feel the resistance to go out of my room!!! Sigh... Since I'm not going to the library, I guess I will be stuck in my own room until tomorrow. I hope I can get my self to the school punctually tomorrow though, if not I can go jump liao. However, since I'm in the room, I can blog!!! Haha, so sian...

In fact, I really feel much better than yesterday already. Today I sneezed without my throat feeling pain, so I guess that's a very good sign. Next, my fever subsided! Also, my I have no more noseblock! Yeah!!! But I still feel sick... Sigh.

Speaking about staying in the room the whole day, I looked into the mirror just now. I saw a very bushy Joseph. So I shaved myself. Then I see strands of hair coming out from my nose. WHAT THE HELL?! My nose hair grew until so long already?! So I went to trim it. What a time to waste trimming myself when I have a Chem paper 3 tomorrow.

i guess I have to go back to study already. Maybe later i will go out and drink yao4 fen3 again, or buy some CD-Rs to burn my One Piece. I only have 40GB hard disk, so my hard disk is going to burst soon..

Good luck for Chem paper tomorrow!!!

Wah lao... Today my flu has reached a climax already loh. I actually woke up not feeling going anywhere out of my room. This is such a bad feeling especially before my Chem Paper 3!!! If it were Math Paper 1 on Monday then I will not be in such a panic mood already...

However, I have already promised Hung Wei to go and study with him!!! So how leh? Cannot break my promise leh. Heck care lah just go. *drag my body out of the room*...

When I reached Toa Payoh, I saw a Chinese medicine shop, so I went there and asked them to pao4 yao4 fen3. I know this would aid to strengthen my body because I got try before. Normally it is 3 bucks, but this time it is 4 bucks! The person there said he gave me a stronger dose because he deemed my condition to be more serious than normal. Gah! He actually knew. Good loh. Even his helper beside him also commented that my lips like got put lipstick like that. So I drank it and indeed it is much more bitter than those normal 3 bucks one! But I was able to survive the rest of the day!

Went to study with Hung Wei. Study until tak boleh tahan already go arcade. Arcade! Hung Wei said a lot about his principles in the arcade, saying he has to challenge people to make his money well spent, and he won't challenge those n00bs. Ok so I watched him play. After that we went to the Bishi Bashi machines... And found a pro!!! Wow!!! First time I see a person more pro than me! Utterly stunned! Haha. There is a very high probability that he is the EMI in the top score of all the machines in Singapore...

Hmmm... After that felt very guilty about going to arcade, so went back to Long John to study until 9. That ends my day. So late already. And my handphone battery went flat. So sad. Sianz...

Hopefully I will wake up feeling much better tomorrow.

Yeah!!! Finally GP is over!!! So happy. Now I have to focus on my Chemistry and all the papers that follow up...

I am in quite a good mood now, because I am just beginning to download the anime One Piece from the internet. Although it has gone to like 200+ episodes, but I can only download about 120 episodes. And I have just finished downloading 20 episodes!!! I think I will burn them all into cds, so if I bo liao I can watch them in my free time... One Piece rox!!! Any orders?

Wah lao... Sian diao loh... Today I go and see my GP tutor to clarify some of my doubts last minute, then she said "Aiyah no use studying for GP in the last minute lah." Freak loh... If my GP die then everything also no hope liao lah...

Anybody can suggest how I can improve my marks for GP in the span of 2 days? Pray? Cannot one loh...

Think I have to ting1 tian1 you2 ming4 liao. Haiz.

Hmmm I cannot study reading room liao. The environment there is too slack. The atmosphere there will result in most of the people slacking, playing chess, cards, talk cock... So it is better to study in library. At least if you study until very sianz I can come and blog. And worry about GP that is. I think I have done what can do about GP already. Reading newspapers, magazines, essay outlines. The only thing I have not done is to memorise words and phrases I can use for essays and application questions.

I hope miracles can happen like in O levels... A2 is enough for me liao haha... But I think I cannot repeat the feat in O levels this time because I have cheonged as many essays as the last time, so... I still have to wait for miracles...
