Today was a really tiring day for me. Although it was supposed to end at 12.30pm I had some geog talk conducted by a Prof David Higgins from NUS geography department giving a talk at 4.20pm about landslides. It was sort of interesting learning about some new techniques that geographers use to map cliff faces and see the impacts of landslides. Quite a bit of stuff was repeated from the A level H1 syllabus but it was quite informative. We had a sharing session with some 2003 seniors after that. That has motivated me to get an A for H1 geography and my other subjects. Also, there was pizza! There was also an interesting comment about speeches. Apparently good ones are like skirts, they must be long enough to cover the essentials yet short enough to catch others attention. I loled at it.

Ok now on to slightly more serious stuff. There is approx 100 more days to A levels and I must so start preparing. I must get serious now since its like the last lap. I guess I'm like the 2nd type of person mentioned by the senior. I feel stressed that I'm not feeling stressed enough about the impending A levels. This is seriously getting me worried. And I have a chemistry concept test tmr that I havn't even prepared enough for. Dang it.

Extra: Anyone wants to send their name to mars like me? My name is erased for privacy purposes since I'm not like most people who are willing to post all their personal details online which sort of explains why I'm nt really into social networking.

This is horrible. Liverpool vs Singapore. What a disaster, 3-0 to liverpool. Seriously wuuuuttt! And dang it, this is distracting me from my homework. Really can't seem to get anything done over the weekend. Then there's bio PQ to do again and chem concept test coming up. Really sian-ded from all the work and stuff. On the brighter (dubious) side, A levels are coming in 4 months time. Target this time is AAA/B at least. Must........... get............... back......... to.............. work.




Edit: Liverpool is up to 4 goals.
Further edit: 5-0. Think they will beat Man Utd's score last time?

Felt really crabby today after P.E at the thought of bio MCQ tests tmr and the large amount of work that is steadily piling up. Was really quite tired after PE that I just had to take a nap. Oh well, there's the partial eclipse that is going to take place this Wed at 8.40am SST. Pity that I don't have any glasses/filters to observe it. Although it will be during my break time I hope that clouds won't obscure it. Lucky ppl in China will get to see the whole sky turn black while we see this pathetic thing:



Anyway got to get back to doing my bio CCC practice questions. The writing is really killing me.

The harsh reality of term 3 has finally started to sink into me. I am like so frustrated trying to find out what I can type for my top 3 achievements for the SGC. Just realised that the CIP that I did at NUH in January is still not recorded down even though I have the verification letter. I still have to go get it approved then submit the letter to the General Office. And yeah, clubs and society type of CCAs suck! I have nothing much to write about during my tenure at the entrepreneurship club. Then again, I didn't even choose to be in the E-club, it was a result of appealing to TJC. Just my luck when I thought I could try another CCA for once. /facepalm Now I have nothing much to write for my top 3 achievements except CCA and CIP. The last one is really a headache when you have no leadership positions or intellectual achievements. Writing about duathlon or some obscure CCA activity sounds lame too. Whatever, I'll just take ideas from other ppl. And anyway, having a perfect SGC with all E's isn't going to do much good when applying to unis either, which brings me back to the topic of JCTs

Yeah they suck, with me failing almost all my subjects before moderation. Surprise though, my best subject was maths. Bio sucks now, requiring the regurgitation of so many keywords and terms. Hate the answering technique. Srsly, I so think life sucks now; nt sure if NS will suck more. Worst years of my life. And whats the point of ranting here when no one reads my blog anyway? *depressed*

Today was youth day in lieu of yesterday, when ppl who still had papers for JCTs had to mug instead of relaxing. Since my papers ended last week, I had 2 days off instead =D . Spent today going to tampines and playing dota with csc lol. I saw that there was a Hokkaido fair at tm. Really cool stuff they were selling like this ikameshi which is squid stuffed with rice. I saw it on a taiwan tv show on saturday. Apparently its really popular in Japan as a form of ekiben or railroad food. I find it cool that railway stations are associated with different types of bento. I also wanted to buy the butter cakes but the queue was so long! Maybe I'll try my luck tomorrow. Its from 3rd to 12th july.

the squid - its actually quite delicious

Sigh after two days of JCTs, I really am feeling tired. Stupid papers this time were quite hard. Need a break
