got back chem and maths block test
chem: S [gosh, adding up everything and converting to 100%, i failed by 0.5%]
maths: U
my first time in my life failing chemistry
and my first time in jc failing chem and maths

ya some might be curious what happened to me.
well, the answer is, nothing.

i just slacked far too much.
luck ran out too.
no excuse for failing maths, because i fell sick only during chem paper.

well, the past is past, and what matters is the future. As I said in my previous post, the real battle starts now.

shall not be disheartened.
afterall,

yup, it's the bookmark my secondary school physics teacher gave each and everyone in the class on graduation day.
It's one of the artefacts from sec sch that I still hold and treasure a lot

I promise myself that I will work hard and bounce back!
Though it's easier said than done,
but still, mark my words. xD

  Real Battles
What a match yesterday!
At half-time, the circumstances weren't good for Arsenal, one man down, with Bolton leading 2-0.
The Fat Lady was gurgling her Listerine and flossing her teeth.
It looked like a lost cause, but in the end, Arsenal managed to put on a superb comeback and won the match 3-2(and at the same time, they made the Fat Lady cry instead of singing)

just watching this match has inspired me to follow the resilience arsenal's players show and fight on till the very end, even when the odds are heavily stacked against you.

the real battle starts tmr. I shall enter the battle with enthusiasm, though with a blunt sword and lack of armour. Along the way, I will sharpen this sword and build up my armour to prepare myself for bigger battles.

But then no one man can fight a big battle on his own.
They need this special sth to help them win a battle
For me, I am unable to find this special sth

this special sth named "Help"

since i'm online for a while might as well blog
block test began today
gp compo was ok
gp compre disastrous
econs was totally demoralising.
the moment i flip the qn paper of Paper 2, i knew i was doomed.
didn't study mkt failure and alternate theories!
i had a guilt feeling b4 the econs exam that alt theories would come out
yet i decided to bypass it!
oh god, q4 was no better

so at the end of day 1, it doesnt seem very gd.
and i have a foresight that tmr will be no better

jia lat, my 100th post and it's a negative one =(

ok.
today was CIP @ Naval Base Pri
quite fun la
boarded the bus from school.
den 0722 peeps were in charge of the volleyball station
whereby the lil kids were supposed to hit the ball 5 times w/o dropping
we were station masters and had to sign their papers upon completion
haha, the kids are so funny

den after the event has ended, miss tang gave a short debrief along with mr singh
she said , "I hope this event has helped you to regain some of the energy you lost from your journey to pri school to JC"
a student asked mr singh "how come the kids so enthu?"
he replied "Go reflect"
hmm, quite true.
last time, as innocent, carefree kids, we are so enthusiatic about everything we do.
but now, as we are approach adulthood, increasing responsibilities and expectations have weighed us down.
time has become such a precious resource that we cant afford to waste, especially in Singapore where things seems to go too fast.
we grow so fast, we leave behind many things along our journey.
[coz to go faster, we must throw things away to lighten our load. somemore responsibility and expectations getting heavier, all the more have to sacrifice other loads]
What are the other loads?
I leave it up for you to think about it.

ok enuff of crapping.
after CIP went Northpoint foodcourt to eat
den yongkit, ah yong, ben and I went to play LAN for an hour
play dota, it's been ages since I play lol
[omg block tests are coming and we are still playing! >.<]

den went home.
and darn my stomach still haven't recover yet.
zzz...
