Sun.
I suppose that after Tuesday, we would all be screaming and laughing in plain hysteria. Will we?
I am pretty sure that there are a couple of souls now furiously doing MCQs. Personally, I am done with mine; completed the three books of TYS in the span of 4 days. I have yet to mark a few papers though and will do it later into the day. Maybe at around 4pm. Don't ask me why; my "working clock" just switches on after the time. Before that, I am pretty much a zombie walking around like and gazing aimlessly outside at the new KPE flyover.
I am apologizing here for my cranky behaviour for the past few days. Of the late, I had been feeling rather irritable. I don't know why. So if I had pissed anyone off, sorry about that. Maybe it's the fact that I had been couped up at home for too long. Gee, if this goes on during the coming month, I would be like Frankenstein. Nah, I have many holiday lessons to busy myself with. Heh.
This year's Combined Humanities paper was a great disappointment. The Geography questions made FMP's practice papers look like cross-word puzzles. For 12 marks, talk about tourism in Singapore. Frankly, I just crapped my way through. Students taking Geography should consider taking up part time tourism courses when they are on holiday. That would be an eye-opener. Not to mention the immense pile of information you can throw at the marker until you bore them so much they decide to be 'nice' and give you full marks. It would be either that or they would decide to burn your script for being an advertiser of the STB.
You know. Already at 16, folks like me are taking our Os with such ferocity and such, vengence. Come A levels, then the University, then further education for those brighter sparks. It's no wonder that many decide to leap off the building and end it all. That, I feel is rather pathetic and sad. Exams do kill people. How sad.
I have pretty much set my mind into getting a spot in VJC. If I cannot get into that, at least I can tell myself that I had given my O levels my all; sacrificing all those trips out, television programs, MSN. So on and so forth. At least I had given it my all. No regrets.
And I am tired to plucking out white hair in the bathroom. White hair that form no doubt due to superfluous worry about the happened. How stupid of me. Haha.
And yes. Judging from my current statistics, if I would enter JC, I wouldn't be taking up sciences at all. No more half-life. No more Van der Waal's forces of attraction. No more transcription, translation, mutation, natural selection, menstruation etc etc etc. This leaves a void in my mind with all those scientific facts all moving out. I wonder what I would store these empty spaces with instead. Heh heh heh.
Maybe I would miss the sciences. Maybe I would not if the results were dismissal. It's all circumstantial isn't it? Ha. We are all really. But true to say, I think I would miss the science teachers more. Let's say, Varella's Starlet, Khoo's stickers and Justina's..I don't know. Highlighters? No la. I'm not that materialistic. They are great.
I'd talk about the other teachers other time. Btw. I wouldn't miss my Sec1 Geography teacher. Perhaps your teaching style just doesn't suit me. You should know who she is bah. Hmm.
