Hihi. Am going through a trying and difficult period now. Haiz, trying not to let it affect my studies. Just taking a short 1 min break from studying.

Its a week after the March Hols already...time really flies! Didn't get to relax much or go out during the March Hols ;( I finished my work faster than my sis...Oh we went out to watch NODAME CANTABILE! super nice and inspirational!!! It was really awesome! But there's a part 2 coming out on April 17. Hope I will not be too busy and can catch the final part!!! But it's really close to exams D; oh dear...
Speaking of exams, this year is really really early! On week 7! But they are still squeezing the syllabus haiz. I procrastinated a lot a lot last week and this week but still managed to complete work and I could do all the tests. xD I must really really work hard. As what Ms Sie said, the time you spent procrastinating and feeling angry, you could have done your assignment already. Profound and true...
During the March hols, I attended joyeh's wake. He passed away after a courageous battle with cancer and EBV infections. His family was very strong. His younger sister even came to talk to us, and smiled as we recounted the happy memories of him. Joyeh's mum talked to the NUSHS teachers about the weeks before joyeh passed away..She cried speaking halfway but was still very very strong, and even smiling at times. His father was speaking to dr hang. We stayed there for around half hour before going back to school. Haiz, life is really short. We should really treasure the happy moments and friends around us. To joyeh: You have always appeared to me as a cheerful, bubbly guy, always smiling and enthusiastic about drums! I wished I could have known you better. RIP... You will my dearly and fondly missed by everyone...
Haiz, sometimes I wonder, when I do badly in tests, I fear more from the scoldings I would receive from my mum, and not so much on how badly I did. I would get over the bad results fast and work harder for the next few quizzes. But the image of my mum scolding me would always be stuck in my head. Weird? Oh wells.... I don't know what to say...
Yup, I shall get back to work! Blogging is like talking to someone i guess, I always feel better after typing out my feelings and rantings. ^_^ sayonara!!
When I need someone to talk to, you will always appear in my mind, but yet when I am about to SMS or MSN you, I feel like I should not bother you or for other reasons...

YAYAY! completed econs report. Went to Hao Chun's house today. Got a little lost trying to find his house hahas. Spent 10 mins circling jurong west because he said opp. lakeside mrt. In the end you had to drive further up for quite a distance before reaching his condo. His condo had a cozy feeling hahas not too big not too small ^^. Soon Ruthanne came and we started on econs project. Had a hard time finding information at first and I actually had the guts to call the ASME to ask them for help!!! ahahahas. But in the end they didn't send me anything so far. We managed to find though and our report is approx 1600 words!! Felt a great sense of accomplishment xD
Had lunch. THANK YOU HAO CHUN'S MUM! Your spaghetti was fantastic!! And the pumpkins, taiwan dessert and green bean soya milk!!! WAHH jealous? ;))) Had a wonderful lunch! It was really really yummylicious! hahas. Watched a little tv like 5 mins before discussing bio mindmap with Hao Chun. THANKS FOR THE STAMP!! hahas i love it to the maxx!! Yup, soon went home and started to work on the bio mindmap. Tedious but the outcome of the first half of the project was nice! Now waiting for yuki's part zzzzz. Haiz, chase him also no use, like he will bother to send me his part asap. ASAP to him is prob like 1 day later at least? Urgh, ms sie was right. Empty promises all the time. Nvm shan't waste my breath ranting.
Gotta go eat dinner!! Then watch TV!!! WAHAHAHA. March hols is a little more relaxing after all xD Thank goodness...
Bye!~ I LOVE CAMBRIDGE

Yay. I managed to read some english articles. And I completed A LOT of work and projects during e-learning and over the weekends. I feel accomplished ^^ I am blogging now as I decided to take a short break. I need breaks too xD Going out for dinner tonight yay I feel like I have a life again hahas. Sometimes during school I wonder, is it normal to lead a life full of homework, assignments, projects, tests and quizzes? This results in a lot of studying. I haven’t gone out for a decent trip this year and am really looking forward to tonight!
I really hope something will be done about english though I understand that our english standard IS not as good as compared to other schools (yes?). Hope some feedback can be brought out by the PSG or by some really brave student xD Will really appreciate that!! I WANNA go CAMBRIDGE! I LOVE CAMBRIDGE! Such a beautiful and ideal university...*sigh*
Shan’t blog too much. Going to read the newspaper before going out. Bye!

Oh my, year 4 is really really hectic. I really look forward to E-leaning week and MARCH HOLS!!! Next week is e-learning week. Hopefully can finish all the work given online around 3 pm everyday. I really really need a break. Haiz, every module has A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE!!! The worst thing is, eng is very slack and the teacher HARDLY teaches at all. Yet the expectations of the teachers are so high! Even the super duper pro students are getting A- for their essays only! Cambridge, my IDEAL uni is requesting for a 4.3 CAP for english. This means I have to get at least A- FOR EVERY YEAR TILL YEAR 6! BUT the teachers in year 4-6 have really high expectations!! How am I going to get the 4.5 CAP min every year till year 6? I want to take the AS English paper but the paper 1 is really different from what we are learning now. If I can get an A for the AS paper, I can say hey, I can get an A but my school eng is only around, say 4 CAP. So it shows the standard of eng in NUSH and hopefully I can go to Cambridge. But how how how??? I need a lot of help to answer the paper 1 of the AS paper!!
I really want to go Cambridge. I LOVE THE CAMPUS! It gives me the warm, cosy feeling that one really needs when one is abroad, away from Singapore and family. The engineering course in Cambridge is also really good. You don't specialise straight away into a specific engineering course unlike other unis but you only specialise in the third year after you get a better idea. I really really want to go Cambridge. Which means I need to work ALOT on my english. ALOT. Sometimes I wonder why the eng teachers must grade our work so strictly. It doesn't benefit them right? Yet because of my eng grade, I may not be able to go to Cambridge just because of english! Which doesn't make any sense at all! Yes, english is important, but I'm not doing badly because I can't speak proper english, right?! I can speak english well enough to communicate efficiently with people around me and get my point across!
Anyways, I shall NOT procrastinate anymore (after typing this post of course. i need to let out all my feelings.). I MUST LET MY ENG STANDARD MEET THE TEACHERS' EXPECTATIONS! I shall read the GP books and read more to improve my knowledge. Oh and this year's English module is 6 MC!! OH NO. Krystal, you can do it!!! Jiayous jiayous!!! I MUST GET AT LEAST A- THIS SEM!!! plsplspls let my hard work pay off. AAHHH STRESSED.
Talking about stress, I realise sometimes good stress can turn into bad stress. Sometimes I just feel like breaking down and crying out loud but as if that will help solve anything right? People say just look forward but it's easier said than done. Grades are like filled in my mind all the time, I got to admit. This is bad but what to do? The standard of my level is really getting higher and higher each year! I have to improve to continue to be one of the top.
Ok. Shall stop ranting. This is never ending. Really looking forward to weekends and breaks so I can recharge myself and prepare for school again. Yup. Ok shall stop here so I will not procrastinate anymore. Bye!
I LOVE CAMBRIDGE!!!
