in the east coast of singapore, temasek secondary school is facing a huge crisis.....!!
EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY.....
students were heard in corridors, chatting away happily while others made way to the bus stop; some made a bee-line to the nearest 7 eleven...
said a happy shahirah: "my exams are NEARLY over; i still have to sit for my malay listening comprehension exam"
awww, too bad.
haha.
ok, i know i am such a drama queen, acting as though i am such a professional journalist.
tee hee on that one.

my opinion on the papers:
chinese composition was OK. i had to keep flipping through the dictionary because my chinese vocabulary is so poor. for every sentence, flip. flip here flip there. i hope to pass this paper.
english composition was horrible; for the complaint letter, i felt that i written too much and for the essay, i had a hard time choosing which question i wanted to do. i think i wasted 10 percious minutes. in the end, i half-heartedly settled on question 5, describing a scene at a mall. i can't afford to get low marks for this.
geography was OK, even though i did not have enough time to check....i just finished all the questions and a few seconds later, the invigilator told us to put our pens down. i hope to get A1 and not a stinkin' A2.
english comprehension was OK.
science paper. sigh. i didn't study enough for chemistry; all the 'valency' and 'ions' and 'electronic structure' thing made me so confused. despite this, the chem paper was OK. bio was not to bad; i know the process of digestion at the tip of my fingers. for the test, we had to write a structured question- a mini essay. easy. i hated the physics paper. the first part was OK, until it came to calculating resistance and voltage and current. i couldn't think well. in the end, i just calculated anyhow and wrote my answer. i think i am going to fail in that section.
mrs tan bee bee lost our project. worse, she lost pei shan's thumbdrive. i never seen pei shan so mad. she even called her father to come to school to settle the matter; demand for reimbursement? mrs tan bee bee refused to pay up.
i have no idea why my school's HOD is not thinking properly....i mean, put history and home economics together in one day???? erm, hello!!!! are our minds computerized that can store a lot of memory????
so, obviously, you can't put both the subjects together for exam.
but nooo, they have to be so ~#%^&*** to put them on the same day.
so everyone had to stay up past 11 to put all the information of history and home economics into our very small brains. i could have nearly died of brain explosion.
of course, fortunate for me, my brain has a strong memory power and i can memorise the whole book- both history and homec. stupid, i know.
the homec paper was easy. (yup, with ALL the information stored in my mighty brain).....i expect to get A1.
history was quite challenging. i wrote a lot. it's like i have written a novel or something. i raced against time. for the last 45 minutes, i did SBQ question. for part (b), which is 7 marks, i only wrote a small paragraph.....no time, you see. i was rushing but i managed to finish the paper on time....
literature was unusual. on the previous night, a strange prickly thought struck me. "i think, for the essay question, they would test on either 'relationships' or the 'theme'.....cannot be on characteristics....it's too easy....." so, following my instincts i last minute wrote down the necessary notes, went to sleep, and studied in the bus.
guess what? it came out. it did. i rejoiced silently. then i did the paper. literaure was the only paper that i can rest, check through, rest again.....and still have enough time to sleep :) i wrote only 2 pages on each question but when i looked around, i saw other people writing twice as much as me, especially rachael. i panicked. i thought i missed out a question. i checked again. no what. i did not miss out anything......weird.
math paper two and chinese on the same day.
how idiotic can it ever get??? i studied for math thoroughly, with the exception of congruency and similarity... i hate that topic. why on earth there was ever such a mathematical topic such as congruency. similarity is worse. and i don't understand angles of polygons, and solving unknown length of similar figures.
and, because of that, i did not study for chinese. i hate chinese even more. it's even worse than a bird shitting on me, even though it never actually happened.
the bird poo, i mean.
i was so stressed i cried. i vented out my anger by tearing my chinese assessment (ohh...it felt so good....yup. i literally tore it. there's a big gash on the book spine), throwing my chinese book here and there. in the end, i never studied. of course, what do you think? they expect us to memorise 80 idioms?? it's IDIOTIC. once again, the HOD who set the darn paper think we are superman or jimmy neutron.
but, who cares? i'm gonna fail anyway.
the math paper was OK- some questions i didn't know how to do though. stupid polygons came out.
chinese paper was worse. i did not know how to do half the paper at all. guess i'm not the only one. everyone thought so too.
yay. everyone's gonna fail together with me. yee-haw!!
math paper one was today. the last and final paper. it was manageable. unfortunately, i had stomachache; couldn't really concentrate....oh well.
and that's what happened during exam week.

hollywood SLEAZ
1) hilary duff and lindsay lohan are friends again; they totally forgive each other for dating aaron carter, each.
aaron who??? haha. something like that
2) john mayer and jessica simpson (divorced to nick lachey) are together. this feels so wrong to me. plus, he gave her a theasaurus (a kind of dictionary- not dinosaur) as a present on no special occasion at a party. everyone thought it was rude (you know....that gesture is trying to tell her she's really dumb) but she laughed anyway.
3) james blunt ('you're beautiful'....you know that guy? yup. that is him) was not charged for running his car over a reporter's foot. yikes
4) paris hilton will attend a hearing because she has been driving with an expired license; if i'm not wrong. lol. she'll look horrid in orange.
