Today marks the start of the 2 weeks preliminary examinations. They should all be set with a standard that's higher than the 'A' levels, to up our abilities more...so don't expect to see me posting these 2 weeks. --- The previous week was a crawling one...who knows why? It's almost as though my sense of time is numb, yet when used to practise my work it seemed to be never enough. In this holiday, i mostly studied my physics, which i got and want to maintain my level at A. Accounting is my next subject to improve on, trying to at least get a B. I'd think that i've completely given up on Mathematics, but the way that's setup makes it impossible to fail. They can't give too much emphasis on one single topic, so even if it's a topic that i'm not familiar with, it'll only be one question in a single paper. I'm abnormally adept in statistics so Paper 2 will be where i make the mark. In paper 1, pure mathematics, i'll have to revise up f...
I've been pretty obsessed about a few things recently. 1) I would think that a few people know this already, but i've moved on. This is not difficult to decipher at all so have fun guessing. Oh yeah, and thanks Astley (My near 6 years card-mate and near best-friends) for his advice on how to court gi..wait, this is giving the answer away... 2) THIS! I think the characters and song lyrics are just cute. Very cute. Kappa! --- Finished watching Silent Hill: Homecoming playthroughs on youtube. Oh, when i want to play a game very much but lack the means to, i'll watch people play them instead since all i'm going for is story. Silent Hill: Homecoming, or also known as Silent Hill 5, depicts the story when protagonist Alex Shepherd returns to his home after his service in the military. However things starts to go wrong soon... Oh yeah, Silent Hill Origins Protagonist Travis Gardy made a cameo appearance too! He's old already though, we can pretty much guess how long has it...
Yesterday was fun...and tiring. Met at Harbourfront MRT station with the photography crew and waited for the rest. Waited for about half an hour before we can move out with everyone there -_-. Seriously those idiots without time concept... Went to Hort Park first for our Nature photoshoot. It was quite cool. The national flower is there, a lot of species of different flowers, there's even a butterfly park. It's really cool! But i feel that it's quite sad...that such a magnificent park is set in an industrial area... Then walked to Mt Faber using the 'long bridges'. It is really long and vibrates easily, giving me and others who are afraid of heights some scare... On Mt Faber, it's just wonderful scenery. Near the end of the Mt Faber 'hike', there's a bridge that allows view from 77.68m above sea level - supposedly said the highest point in Singapore. The view is a wonderful meld between human's architecture and nature's beauty. We then starte...
I had my CMPB screening yesterday. It was quite fun, with a few highlights. Say, the blood test. When it was my turn, the person in-charge told me a story while sticking a needle into my arm. It seems that he thought i would be afraid of the needle, but actually his story kind of made me notice the needle more. He said not to marry foreign women for they will cheat your money. Haha, i have a neutral stand on this. Another interesting part is the MAPAS test (Who knows what that means?), where it tests our aptitude and check out our field of expertise. Questions ranged from simple mathematical series to language comparison to FRIGGIN' TOUGH PHYSICS QUESTIONS! I am actually unable to really correctly answer all of them. What a surprise. Released after that. Walked to Bukit Merah bus interchange and boarded Bus 198 back home. Nostalgic. --- Just a short story to share...so see you.
Ok, here comes the big update after a month...where should i begin? Let's start with the MI Official Opening (16th May 2009), which i can describe in a few words: "Utterly disappointing". Perhaps it's caused by the influenza, but because of that the whole carnival got toned down to a very small scale of say, the canteen and the basketball court. The booths were really...similar in a way or two. The environment is kind of awkward to move about as well...heck i can only think of complains. Although i did ask a few of my friends to go, ranging from my ex-schoolmates, my card-mates, and even my GE Faction mates, my main party for that day was with my card-mates. We went down there first and not surprisingly all of them had the same thoughts as i have: Boring. I already have regrets calling them all over to such a boring place (Seriously). After i passed my coupons to Meng Yang (with guilt, of course), i left the place and walk to the nearest MRT, that trip took us 20 minu...
