first day of prelims.

english was alright. i basically just crapped for paper 1. paper 2's summary is shit. first time i have too little to write.

mrs lai treated us pizza while we discussed the new committee members. it was difficult to choose. talk here and there, than talk half way, end up talking about something else. than always had to be divert back. end up do voting as it was too difficult to choose.

so now the new committee is out and mrs lai is treating us to kfc next time. cool


jiayou bah.

the first week of school just went by like that.


school wasn't nice.
it was very slack. i rather we stay at home. only some lessons like biology, chemistry, ss were productive. maths was a little slack. just went through answers to the papers that teacher give. that's what happens, when the syllabus is taught finish so fast and all teacher has to do is revise with us.


went for band for the last time on wednesday. the new exco members had to go for interviews. so poor thing. i think ours was the best. i shall stop worrying about band and continue to study. the band will somehow be able to survive without the sec4s. they have to anyway.


found out during whitespace why there's no ndp in school this year. there's something special that the school is participating. cool. just hope that we will get some cip hours from it.



cca record was alright but just want to make it look nicer.





o level chinese oral was alright. the passage was relatively easy except for a word and the conversation topic was quite easy. i basically just crap my way through. had to wait till 3pm before we can go, so did a question of emaths and just look around and managed to see some funny incident. after reading the passage was supposed to find a red cross on the floor and stand there. someone just walked pass it without realising and started searching for the red cross. the examiner saw and found it funny too. something to lighten the mood.



rushed to rp for the final session of stp. blahblahblah. i was only interested in the food that was provided at the end. the food is nice for tea break. chatted with carol, her friend and anna over school stuff. we were the last few to leave the place.


i miss my juniors.


tried studying ss. previously, my random crap for ss test wasn't crap to teacher. just hope that whatever crap i write for prelims is not crap to teacher.



prelims is starting tomorrow.
the last week of prelims is going to be hell. like all science papers. can just die.

the holiday is coming to an end. that means exams are starting soon.

the holidays was busy preparing for what was supposed to be exams, but i don't think i've done that. i have barely started on ss and i don't feel like studying ss. the rest are almost done but i think only 10% went into my head.

started watching drama serial which isn't good. shall stop watching since i have already watched it before.


i need like 5cm more and to ensure my eyesight doesn't go any worst, so that i can apply for my dream job in about 6 years time.

all thanks to that classified ad. it made me have a realistic goal to fulfill. but first, O levels. studying for prelims is bad enough, imagine studying for O levels, ill be dead.


must persevere.



A levels will be harder.

managed to study a little biology before i started to fall asleep after reading half of the chapter on transport in human. suddenly all the blood is interesting. erythrocytes, leucocytes, thrombocytes. they are actually red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. cool. napped and then continued on the rest of the chapter on the heart. started on transport in plants but i ended up daydreaming. so watched tv.

went out for dinner. blahblahblah. eat the same place like so many times already. getting bored. like always have the same food. ate lots of ice cream. which i was craving for.

waited the whole day and the past few days for a call. but it seems like it didn't come. so njc is like out for me. sadded. put my hopes too high already.

there's still 2 more and i'm planning for 1 more. just hope that at least one will go well.

the day after 'Arise, Shine!' was supposed to be spent catching up on lost revision time. but i end up using the computer the whole morning. didn't really study much the rest of the day. tried doing work but was distracted by the tv as i was sitting directly in front of it and someone on it.

there's last minute stuff on thursday morning. was told to reach school at 9am. waited till 11am. the 1st hour of waiting was spent doing biology papers with lots of blanks in paper 2. only to realise that the computers aren't working. when we finally started, realised that the computers were not working so had to move to another computer lab. we didn't know where to start till mrs choy came and sorted things out. got the report done at 2.30pm.

i didn't have breakfast, no time to have lunch as i have to rush off for cip as i'm already late. so bought a cake which i only manage to eat half of it. so had to stay an hour more as i came an hour late. i didn't bother me at first till nearly 2hours passed and i find it quite bored already plus everything's like pretty much done. so hide in some corner and slack around. the last hour is really hard to pass.

at night had to rush the poster for tomorrow. had to get the fonts right.

friday morning was spent in rp finishing up the poster. agreed to meet at 10am but it was only at 11.40am that she arrived. sort of knew it was going to happen. spent 1hour cutting the words. i'm slow. than tried pasting. mr chandra came and helped organised everything. gobbled down some food. than off we go to set up our posters. everything was basically just impromptu. never really prepared any script. the judges are ok. everything was quite good. the rest of the time was spent eating the food provided.

studied geography. another 1.5 chapters done. i doubt i remember anything. watched tv.

had cip in the morning. was told to report at 8.30am but i woke up only at 8am. so rushed to city hall and managed to reach at 9am and the nygh girl is still there. so went with her and her friend to toa payoh. the first 30minutes was spent at the bus interchange where we met this aunty which is ~!@#$% scared that we are cheating their money. went off as the security told us nicely to go. than started roaming around toa payoh central. walk rounds and rounds. my tin is the lightest of all about 2hours. the others have about half tin filled. they are super enthu. every person will go and ask. it was only at the last hour that everything started going well.

enough of flag days for me. need to really study and finish up the holiday assignments.

finally the day of the concert! also the last day of band! even though there's the farewell function, but i think it will be a few months later.


did chemistry papers in the morning. practically every question don't know how to do, or i just forgotten how to do. prelims i'll just die. at least the mcq was much better.


bus-ed to woodlands mrt to meet carol, yanyiin, shiming. i was latest today but wasn't late yet. they are early. went to foodcourt and saw guzheng people. ate lunch. waited for the sec1s to pass me the tickets. they come so late that we had to take a taxi. found one, went in. the next part was interesting.

uncle: going to rp is it?
we: yah
someone asked: how you know?
uncle: son also from phs, having a concert at rp
we: oh
uncle: my son is firdaus, you all know him?
we: OOHHHH!

so got a free ride to rp. cool luh. and there i was complaining about taxi more expensive than bus. so went in to the theatre which is super cold, but once reached the dressing room, it's like so warm. had a rehearsal. everyone seems to love the corridoor at the holding area as it's much cooler than the dressing room. so we will just sit on the floor and block the way.

the ticket sales is like finally settled. all the 'missing' tickets was 'found'. like i don't know how, but they just appeared. was happy. finally no more scoldings.

had early dinner. we were the first few and were able to eat first but the food provided was quite little. so i bought spaghetti. carol waited for me. nice. changed into band-u. suddenly the dressing room became even warmer, like sauna. after tuning, everyone went outside on the corridoor and slack.

the concert didn't start on time, maybe 10minutes late. everything went well, but my fingers were still cold. but somehow, they light make it such a way that we can't see the audience but the audience can see us, which is good. changed in the yellow-tee and jeas after that, while alumni tuned. blahblahblahblahblah. just basically slacking around and everyone is like finding for water. blahblahblah.

somehow, i just can't be happy, was somehow forced to pay for a ticket that was unsold, like how i know what's going to happen. i'm $15 poorer. crap.

the band alumni was nice. scootin' and 7th night of july. waited for finale, which i somehow was quite high. the concert ended 1hour later than expected. crap. luckily didn't take the bus back to school or i may not be able to catch my bus home.





need to study. i'm like so dead.
i have a feeling that i'm going to do badly for prelims 1.

sunday
did oral during piano lesson. i'm lousy at singing.

had lunch at amkhub than went to mrt station for flag day. first time need to sell so many things and who even heard of selling apples during a flag day? weird. set off for yishun with a nygh girl. start at a sheltered walkway to the mrt. after about 30minutes, the weight of our bags are killing us, so we changed location where we can put down our bags. after doing for about 2hours, we went macs and ate icecream. went to the interchange which was really bad, so after 45minutes or so, we went back to our 2nd location snd stayed there till 5.45pm. after standing for 4hours, our hands and legs ached. the tin was quite heavy. train-ed back to amk to return the tins and than home. it's like the 2nd time people thought phs is in bishan. crap.

tried to do a little work but someone on the tv and there's 'mr bean's holiday' showing so was distracted, it's stupid and funny.

monday
woke up at 8am. super early, all thanks to my sis. ate a little breakfast, did a little work, basically just finished up what i didn't do last night. off i go to woodlands mrt. i reached there super early. waited for 47minutes before carol arrived. it was then that we realised there was miscommunication. crap. she said '11am' i heard as '10am' i said '10.30am' she heard as '11.30am'. how nice. i went to eat first and soon after shiming came and we all waited at bk for yanyiin to come.

bus-ed there since there's not much time. blahblahblah. had technical run. sat at the backstage to wait for the CO to finish. they took really long. our turn. the lights are just all colours except normal light. crap. we had red, blue and green light shining on our files. crap. the rest of the time was slacking in the dressing room, exploring the 2nd level and sitting along the corridoors of our dressing room. by the time we do the finale, everyone was freezing. the dressing room isn't cold but the theatre is super cold. crap.

bus-ed home. tomorrow's the concert! the last day of band! finally another load is off my shoulders for the mean time.

this morning was crap. this crazy guy suddenly come up to me and say that my family make him crazy. like i even know him like that. than keep saying that he want to take oil and pour on himself. like i care. he's simply talking to the wrong person. from the first question he ask, it's like already wrong, yet he kept going on and accusing me. some crazy guy indeed.

last day of formal holiday lessons which was spent doing crap. watched finish the movie that teacher showed us halfway like one month ago... quite nice but the ending is sad. than have to write an essay on 'addiction'. don't know how to write.

went to that hall, listened to some crap and than got back our progress report. quite alright.

lunch-ed. band. rehearse again. so crap. from english lesson all the way till the ending of band, my eyelids kept twitching. i can sense like something bad going to happen to me. like i know it on wednesday night already. so got scolded for the crap that i have done, after awhile than say that i'm not totally at fault, like obviously.

went to mrt and it started twitching again. crap. bought stuff from ntuc and saw my dad at the interchange. suddenly appear.

at night, the bad thing happened. so crap. make me happy a while for nothing. didn't do much today. crap.


so many homework to do. plus haven't really study yet. darm it.

tuesday
couldn't sleep well the night before, so end up tired. was too excited to sleep somehow after receiving the phone call the night before telling me go for audition today. i'm like weird. normal people will feel more nervous instead of excited.

had to reach school at 7.30am. teacher was late. had mock SBQ test. i'll totally flunk it. i didn't do the last question and the 2nd last wasn't complete. all my answers were totally crappy. had lessons after that and teacher dragged till we are only left with 10minutes break instead of 30minutes. at least thursday's lesson is cancelled.

biology was cool. learned molecular genetics. cool. some parts is really very cheem luckily it's not in our syllabus but it's in A level's. darm. ended early and got 45minutes break. so my plan managed to work after all. ate lunch. maths lesson was blahblahblah. i just don't like plane geometry chapter 10 of amaths textbook.

went off. got some directions to njc. bus-ed there. halfway through a guy from njc boarded. i didn't care about that and just went as told. it started raining when i got off and there's like no shelter all the way to the school! do i just walked in the rain and got drenched. my clarinet casing got a bath. finally reached after walking like 10-15minutes. i don't know. i was stupid enough not to follow that njc guy and get myself all wet. i don't even know what time i reached maybe about 2pm. after walking around for awhile trying to find the bandroom, i finally found it and managed to meet some nice people who helped me. their bandroom is bigger than ours, like duh and quite neat too. while setting up my instrument, people who saw me were concerned about me looking drenched and everything. seems like typical jc people. warmed up a little. went to this room, i think is where they keep their instrument and scores and everything and started my audition. sight read a piece. quite alright but was told my rhythmn isn't good. there's still a little hope. still have to sit for some test before they decide if they want me.

the bus ride home took me 1hour the least.

went for piano lesson. got an ice cream treat from my teacher as i passed my grade 8 theory exam. she call the ice cream 'swensen banana split' when it's just strawberry, chocolate,vanilla icecream with sliced banana, crushed ferrero rocher chocolate and some honey. at least better than nothing. my teacher was so happy that i passed as i failed all of her mock test and even scored higher than my ex-classmate doing the same grade.

i was a bit high then and wanted teacher to share the ice cream with her whole family - brothers, sister-in-law, niece, nephew, maid, and even dog. lolx. i'm some weird person. reached home at 10pm.

wednesday
thought today's lesson is at 11am but suddenly remembered that it's at 9.30am. dad dropped me off a stop before the mrt so that he can go to work. walk to school and reached at 9am.

got back all our test papers. very satisfied with the results. like finally could get so high. after a boring 90minutes. stayed in bandroom to do some maths than tried practicing a little on my rhythmn

band was blahblahblah except for the last part which is really bad.

spent the whole night settling the ticket stuff and it's still not correct. i'm like so doom.
i made 5 calls to the same person. wow.

tomorrow's lessons it's just so crap. go to school for 90minutes only.
