the jellyfish is back. CT is finally over! ^^
What do i tink of the papers, hmm...
GP: Aiming for E
Geog: didn't finish the paper, oh well! Human geog is very difficult compared to physical geog. Hope can get at least S though, only a rare chance will pass.
Chem:
P1 - the organic part was hard (although i am the only one who have this thought)
P2 - better than P1, hope the eqm and energetics can save me!!! =)
Hope can at least get C.
Maths:
Didn't finish the paper, cos too hard le. The vectors 3 and app of integration totally stunned. Hope can lucky enough to get 80! lol!
Physics:
P1 - Horrible.
P2 - Suprisingly the field questions were quite easy, but the COE and DC like wth? The DRQ came out Boeing and Airbus, which is like huh?
Hope can get at least B. ^^
At least can slack for a few days, before the waves of tutorials hit us. XD
9:56 PM
the jellyfish is back! Sadly, the end of the holidays is approaching, but happily, it's the end of the wretched Hwa Chong Chess Cup! ^^

===========================================
1. March holidays
Sat 13th - Went out with SY to the IT fair in Suntec
As the name suggested the activity and the place, we just went to see around, cos SY wanted to buy some random headphone or something, but in the end was not bought, due to super overcrowding... The experience was not as good as i had expected, too many people, half the time u must smash through obstacles and when u want to look at something, the crowd will push u like flowing water. So oh well!
After that we went to Swensen's for sundaes and fries, cos i wanted to celebrate vectors test get full marks (which is damn rare, LOL!)
Picture Below: A picture of the sundaes which me and SY ate. Mine is the fanciful one with cherry ^^
My ice-cream flavour: Banana split and chocolate peanut ice-cream.
toppings: butterscotch and strawberry.
Looks nice rite? ^^
I didn't know the toppings were optional, otherwise i would not have ordered. T_T
SY's is the mint and chocolate, it looks more like 2 of the topless 5 ice-cream rather than a sundae though.
The fries is quite ok though, just the right texture, the sweet chilli and tartar sauce were good! :D Should try it, but it is $5.50, so try to share with someone.
Talked a lot of rubbish while eating the sundae, from school life to homework to relationships to dinner to bla bla bla... SY kept laughing at my failure to behave in a 'high-class' manner. =.= Just because the chair refuse to budge, dosent mean i stone there rite?
After that i bought a pretzel (the premium one which has cinnamon and raisins), haha is extremely nice! I tink the butter taste and cinnamon goes well together! Actually i thought that is a medium pretzel, then after i found out is premium, oh well! Walked in Toysrus after that, and saw a few teddy bears (hmm maybe Tean will like that?) which are quite big and fluffy lol! After walking out, i realise that there actually is a mini-event, but somehow nobody is there, and so the organizers look bored... O_O A good saturday to walk, since like for the past week cooping in school / home studying and mugging. ^^
Sun 14th / Mon 15th - Playing Maple
Stayed at home and played maple, there is nothing interesting.
Tue 16th - Geog Day
Went school for geog, then went subway to study a bit of granite. Seriously i still don't get the point of studying this subject. Oh well!
Wed 17th - Physics Day
I thought chess was on Wed, so i waited from 6.20am to 8am, then like wth nobody!? So studied physics with Farah, WL, War, Defa. Learnt a bit about DC, while being bombed by War's G field questions. At night, Ace called me and told me is on Thursday 18th, i almost screamed in fury.
Defa bought a random dessert!
========================================================
Thur 18th - Chess Day (Part 1)
Played Chinese chess in the morning, near evening went to study maths with Defa, WL and War. Around 7pm go Yew Tee eat dinner with RJ, actually wanted to eat hokkien mee, then found the food court closed down! T_T So in the end, we went to eat western food.
It just so happened i had only $3.80 left, and the food court has a lot of $3.80 food. So i tried the fried chicken drumstick butter rice for $3.80, while RJ tried fish and chips!
The chicken is nice! Imagine KFC original recipe chicken in a crispier version! I don't really like the butter rice though... RJ said the fish and chips is nice, should go try one day!
Here is to Defa for studying maths: "How Defa? Can do?"
Fri 19th - Chess day (part 2) / ROD Dinner
Played chinese chess in morning, went for ROD Dinner in night. Shall elaborate in later parts.
========================================================
2. HC Chess Tournament!
Day 1 -
Met early morning with 11 other people at CCK bus interchange.
Hwa Chong is damn big, for some reason. So we climbed loads of staircases up, then we went in the room. My first impression, a big illegal gambling venue.
So like a lot of schools reached, and so I looked around, then realised the HC chess tournmanet consists of CC, IC and Bridge. I wondered why ZY nt there, LOL!
then finally round 1 started. I am in PJC team C.
R1 - VS IJ.
Feel like smacking the guy, i took one chess piece, havent even confirm on where i want to move, intend on putting down then slowly move, then he say cannot take back. Like wth? I didn't even want to move there!
Next time if have such thing, i should touch all my pieces, then can everything move at once. XD
R2 - VS NYJC
The guy i played with is a humourous guy. I tink i laughed more at his jokes than thinking about wad piece should i move. Made wrong move, lost to him, but oh well! It's a friendly game ^^
Halfway through the game, someone shouted the 'Fxxx' super loudly, until the whole room could hear. Everybody is like "wa power seh". Dun tink is a stranger shouting, cos all strangers should be in the chess room. Hmm...
Hwa Chong people are so civilised. ^^
Day 1 lunch - yuck.
I still tink PJ's PCC competition lunch is much nicer than HC's, they should improve on their food.
R3 - VS CJ
A good game with a friendly guy, and somehow i managed to use the chess tutorial... I tink he and me have a common interest, be more interested in other things than Chinese chess. I like! ^^
R4 - VS AJ
I finally saw someone who has the REAL 'i want to hit your face' look kind of person! After i looked into the mirror, i realise i look so much more friendly. ^^
Anyway this AJ guy is a china guy, so i tink his brain should be kind of straight. Cos like the IJ guy, i was wondering wad move to move, then i anyhow touch a piece, then i realise i would be killed! So i like anyhow turn 1 big round and move back (although i didnt even put a final spot). So he is like, "can meh?" and proceeded to ask around (oh disturbing many people in the process). So i am super fed up of him asking, so i just moved my next move, and by the time he ask, it is already 2 or 3 minutes gone.
He can't do anything except to ask me not to do it again. Ar too bad! I have no sportsmanship. Screw Chinese Chess. =P
Sick of playing with him. And that concludes a horrible day 1 at HC!
After that went to Lot 1 to study maths with WL, War and Defa. It feels so much better to be with real humans than people with 'thoughtful' looks.
========================================================
Day 2 - HC Chess / ROD Dinner!
R5 - A walkover
Slacked for the 1.5 hours. How fun could it get!
R6 - VS ACS (I)
Another good game with a china guy! I tink we seemed quite nervous, but played quite long, learnt a lot of tactics in the game, and also learnt that time is very important. I tink i learnt the most from this game, compared to other games.
Lunch was considerably better than the previous day's. But still not very nice...
R7 - VS PJ
Like wth? I just gave up totally, nt interested in playing. Is a draw game anyway.
R8 - VS ACJC
Both teams are very tired, and therefore out of 4 games, 3 were a draw, the other 1 lost to AC, oh well! Slack games, i like!
And the wretched competition ends here! Grats to HC (Team A) which got first!
=======================================================
ROD Dinner!
Didn't stay overnight.
The food was ok, i like the eclair! The chocolate filling burst inside the mouth! ^^
The rest of the food was quite dry, but i believe coming back is for the atmosphere and see how many alumnis / juniors u still remembered!
Quote MingXuan: "2 years later, u will realise u don't know anybody already."
Oh well! For the dinner, i didn't talk much anyway, ate alone, and spent much time doing vectors in an emo spot! Oh, i found out that BP has a Good News Cafe, somehow the price for the pastries is 10cents more expensive than the one in PJ... If nt the rest is about the same.
After dinner, talked to Marissa and Eng Yew about a lot of random rubbish. From food to PJ life to BP life... Quote somebody, i talk a lot of random rubbish, no wonder i score Distinction for my O and A lvl Chinese! XD
I like that quote!
Randomly saw SY in school at around 9pm? Apparently he was summoned by William to accompany him. Marissa asked whether he was from S20, then i like "wth how do you know?"
She saw the class from his shirt, i totally diao-ed. =.= Eng Yew and Marissa has a random no f-words, but ph-words instead. Seems like PH is going to be famous! haha! Ok that was lame, and once again i added another 2 sentences of crap.
SY said we shouldn't be studying too hard. Because as almost all physics student knows, efficiency = (useful output / [Total output + Total input]) If we input too much content and not generating anything useful (cos we didn't score in exams?), the demoniator increases, therefore efficiency decreases. =.=
Ok then! End of the post! Should be posting random pictures someday, somehow. Haha.
11:50 PM
the jellyfish is back! Finally is the March holidays! XD
Contents of this post:
1. GP common test
2. Results of physics and maths test
3. Jalan Kayu trip! again haha!
==================================================
GP Common test
The Paper 1 was random. When i opened up the question booklet, this is the list of questions i saw:
1. Guild alliances do not promote bonding. Is this true in your playing world?
2. Sharp eyes is a useful skill to arch mages and bishops. Discuss.
3. The prices of the items in the free market are never properly justified. Is this a fair comment?
4. There should be no such thing as ringers. Do you support this view?
5. Discuss the value of training with a party in today's world.
6. Ks-ers should be banned permanently, how far do you agree with this statement?
7. Man's best friend - not the money - but the EXP points. Discuss.
8. The spawn time of Boss and Master Monsters should be decreased. Do you agree?
9. Why hunt when you can get great items from Gachapon machines?
10. "If only i had this skill." Should different jobs trade different skills with one another?
11. The training today is so easy that people took it for granted. Comment.
12. Is spamming good?
Ok la that's lame. Anyway the real GP question which i did was Man's best friend - not the dog, but the mobile phone. Discuss. LOL!
I didn't write anything about the dog, probably fail already lol!
The compre was about space exploration, super random topic which i don't really think is of any practical use, so oh well. hope the compre can save me :D Aiming for E.
=====================================================
Physics and maths test!
I didn't fail COE and DC test!!! Surprisingly! =P
Got 14/25, room for improvement! Oh well.
Got 26/26 for vectors test, yay!
Suddenly remembered Jasima's quote again, "your test ar, very badly done! It shows that your concept is very weak and you are not studying. If i were you, I would consider dropping to J1." Oh, grats to Jeffery who got 25/26 for the vectors test! ^^
===================================================
Jalan Kayu trip!
This time, me, War, PH and WL went.
On the Bus to Jalan Kayu, got a lady lost with the ez-link card system, she tried to scan the card on the screen instead of the sensor part.
Well of course I helped, since i am such a nice person. LOL! Too thick skin already haha!
Tried the paper prata and the butter prata! Cos last time tried WL's paper prata, so decided to buy one myself. Haha! The butter prata was super squarish, just like WL's neat handwriting. Didn't took a photo of it though. Surprisingly the butter prata was quite filling, although it is super small, and super squarish, probably the butter inside made it filling.
Try the butter prata with sugar!
PH and WL have their own recommendations though!
WL suggested trying the sugar also, since it is very kok-kok-kok. Hmm... o.o
PH suggested the curry, since it is very er... insert sound effect: [saying "she-loop" very fast]
After that the Jalan Kayu traffic flow increased for dunno wad random reason. So we tried to attempt to cross the road, aiya i shall attempt to make it more dramatic.
Scene 1:
(War tried to cross the road, when a big truck came rushing by)
PH: No War don't cross!
WL: Wa you want to die ar!
Scene 2:
Jeff: It's too late, we will never make it in time. I need 10 minutes to cross the road!
PH: We shall use the last resort, on the count of 3, we are going to cross the road safely, or perish together!
WL: Wth?
War: Any-hau like Peng Hau! (It makes sense btw)
Scene 3:
PH: 1,2,3....! RUN!
(All dashing for their lives. Quote IL: "Animals escape from their predators for their lives.")
After approximately 2 seconds (Jeff took 3), all crossed the road successfully.
War: "Eh reach the other side already ar?"
-_-
=======================================================
In the train, someone random played Bad Romance on his / her phone, and War is like wth?
War is lactacting on the train, dunno why but nvm. All kinds of stuff, u name it! XD
Chocolate milk, milk, bla bla bla... Basically can promote to HL to sell already haha!
========================================================
Random picture not posted! Maybe these few days will post. =P
I realise my table is super messy with stationeries, should pack up some time. ^^
Ending post here!
10:36 AM
the jellyfish is back.
Here's wishing Nat aka nicestcleric a safe 14-day trip in Thailand. ^^
Do remember to visit the Dameon Saduak Floating Market. (is it spelt like that?)
Contents:
1. Punishment for Geog =P
2. PCC competition
3. Random GP lesson
======================================================
Warren said Hydro is very dry, oh well.
I feel that helping people may nt be good, let's be fishmongers today!
Oh well, as expected, the geog case study which i and WK handed up were caught, so the punishment was not as bad as i had expected, redoing another case study. Haix.
Wondering wad LYM said? Well nothing much, just an advice about not copying again, hand in honest work, dunno how to grade, and the list of standard formula, i mean sentences in telling students to reflect upon themselves.
The one which i handed up myself was quite well done, so oh well, blame fate.
======================================================
PCC competition! - 6th March and 7th March 2010
Woke up super early for the 2 days for the Pioneer Chess Challenge. lol!
Loads of schools participated, and i am supposed to usher ppl, but in the end i became a receptionist, lol! During the game play, did homework with other receptionists cos there is absolutely nothing to do.
Lunch was great for the 2 days! :D
Sat - chicken chop rice with fried onion egg.
Sun - Nasi Lemak with luncheon meat, fried onion egg, cheese sausage, chicken wing.
<-- Nasi Lemak, isn't the food great? :D
===================================================
^^
The chicken rice auntie very funny. Apparently some random primary school kids used PJ's tracks for sports day, so when I and Jeffery bought additional packets of chicken rice, she said that later the xiao dou ya (small beansprouts) will have nothing to eat. LOL!
Domination. Red in tooth and claw.
+18hours of CIP, PJ won 5th for CC!
=====================================================
GP lesson was interesting! XD
Richards explaining about different structures for essays again.
Apparently my simple easy structure got praised, haha so shuang~ =P
Quote: "Simple, but you get the point rite?"
=====================================================
I ended the post here!
7:44 PM
the jellyfish is back!
A lvl Chinese result - B, Oral: Distinction
Comments: Happy! ^^
===========================================
Content of this post:
1. Inter-house road run
2. P1 dinner
3. PH birthday
Inter-house road run
Eventful run! Ya rite, anyway grats to the people who ran fast (with godly timing). I ran and walked with WL, then realise the scenery is quite nice. ^^
Grats RJ 7th haha!
==============================
P1 dinner!
A heartwarming dinner :D
JG, MZ, Derrick, me, SY, Tean, Kenneth, Serene, YL, WX, Yuming, Defa, ZY ate seafood near Keat Hong there, ordered sotong, butter prawns, kangkong, hot-plate beancurd, sweet and sour fish...
Each person paid $5 for such delicious food! XD
Entertained by JG's jokes, espacially the part when Defa came and he talked about the ppl not clearing our table, haha!
Talked to Sy and Tean most of the time. =P
After the dinner most of the ppl went to Lot 1 to slack, and for the 1st time i tink i admired Lot 1's night sky, the food court is quite dim though. Then talked a lot of random rubbish, how ppl mug and didnt score well, who got gf, topics definitely not used in GP, bla bla bla...
[Definitely is absolute, in GP we don't do this!]
Who cares! XD
======================================================
PH Birthday!
Happy 1 day belated birthday PH!
Things weren't great for me though! (Same situation as Defa's past birthday)
The DC and COE test - like wth!? so many more times difficult than i thought. o.o I see the 1st MCQ question, immediately tio stun.
During break, a lot of ppl are super enthu, comparing answers and then WL is like shouting walao i teach u then u dun believe. Oh well, i dun understand his explanation /formula anyway, (cos i also dunno when he shouting real things or fake things) no regrets :)
Conclusion drawn: Quote dunno who, "You must assume whatever I've taught is correct!" :D Cheers WL! lol!
Oh i lost my GC in school, like so random F3-40 to MPR4 on the way can lose one calculator.
So after school i went to report the loss (although is not 24 hours), this was the ideal scenario of the reported case.
Office staff: Yes, may i help u?
Jeff: Oh good afternoon, er i'm here to report a missing GC
Staff: Oh ok. How does ur GC look like?
Jeff: It looks like a graphic calculator
Staff: (=.=) Er any other description?
Jeff: Oh, it has a smiley face sticker in the front plate.
Staff: Which smiley face? (Directs me to a cabinet full of GC with smiley face sticker in the front)
Well, in the end, surprisingly my GC was with Chong Boi. Although i dunno how it ended up with him since he didnt borrow my GC or talked to me during the day.
Anyway, me, WL and War went to LJS (wow?) and ate Cajun chicken, except PH. Someone turned 18 already oh well, haha!
Quote WK: "Wa 18 already can have sex already."
Wth? That was random haha!
=================================================
Si bei sian ar, my COE and DC physics test screwed up (although i have already complained). Tomorrow and Sunday still have to go back to school to PCC.
(PCC = Pioneer Chess Challenge)
That's all! Have a happy day ahead! Grats to all those people who got their desired results for A lvls!
9:19 PM
the jellyfish is back. The 15 days of CNY have been over, and so has been the month of Feb.
Recent test marks:
Physics: 18 / 25 [Wow!]
Chem: 18 / 30 [Not bad ^^]
Maths: 24 / 25 [Excellent!]
Vectors quiz: 11 / 13 [Lol?]
Haha lol!!!
