Hell kinda sucked today, as usual.Before going to hell(any normal student should know what it is) today, just a single thought worried me-my long hair! I wondered if my fever that i caught on purpose last week would be in vain. Thankfully, there's like, only 3 days of hell this final week, and I don't think that that bird-like human & those whistling lunatics of hell would continue picking on us students for our long hair. Still, as a precaution, I fashioned a nerd do to school, just like on any other school day. I was in sheer bliss when I got out of the house; it seemed to be drizzling. When I thought that nearly all of my fears had been eradicated, I noticed that that strict falcon-ish principal of ours was just observing all of us in our class, and for one intense moment I thought for certain that he'd march into 3e2 & signal out those who had long hair after closely eyeing us. To my greatest joy, this never took place after we mumbled the school pledge, at all. We had our chemistry S.P.A today, & to be honest, I didn't really know what I was doing scribbling down my most likely erroneous answer for the mole question. I simply took a wild guess and there, in my answer, was monoatomic or some shit like that. All in all, I don't remember making any serious mistakes performing the practical(titration).We did nothing for mother tongue.Teacher wasn't present.During the last 2 periods, english, Mrs Chua got pissed at us for our complacent & overconfident attitude. I believe 2 people simply dosed off while she was going through our english paper 2(which I totally screwed up).This year, I can say one thing about my academics: It was a completely horrendous experience, & I definitely have to pull up my socks for next year; I'm quite confident about being promoted to sec 4, even though I failed at least 3 or 4 out of 7 of my subjects.I thank hell for having quite an easy promotion criteria as compared to other hells.About my english results which i got back today, you can congratulate me but please don't applaud me; I pretty much didn't even get close to my potential, and I didn't perform at my best, especially paper 2.I can remember myself drowning in my own dream world while I was attempting that paper.Thus, I only managed to clinch a mere pass: 26/50. Thankfully, paper 1, my speech somehow managed to get a 20/30 even though I struggled for time doing that section.The composition was fine, 24/30, but still, was nothing compared to my Sa1's 26/30 that I obtained before the end of the previous semester, & I didn't give it my all doing the papers, including ones for the various other subjects, most of which were studied meagrely for.Somehow, I managed a 36/40 for my oral despite chuckling for a brief moment during the oral exam thanks to a certain two friends of mine who were watching me take the test a table behind me in front of the library.So overall, I got a mere 67.6% for my EOY english result, top in class, but very disappointed.Adding to my stress was our dear Nicholas Leong, who as usual, was compensating himself due to his failure in getting a higher overall % for english than me.Personally, I feel that Mrs Chua has a heart for him, since she mentioned that 1 mark for any 1 component, let's say comprehension, was only about 0.4-0.6 marks in the total, and when he had an extra 3 marks added for his comprehension, she said that he would get a 67 or 68 overall?I'm just bewildered here.She just said that 1 mark for any component was only a small 0.xx, and yet she said that Nicholas could get a 67 or 68 from his 64.9.I know I may seem as though I'm envious, maybe I am, but I just feel that she's exaggerating abit too much. Danny aided me in calculating 1 mark in one component which was equal to approximately 0.625 mark(s) in the overall.Hence a 1 mark addition to the overall would give you an extra 0.625 marks to your overall. Since Nicholas got a 64.9 initially, he should get about 66.77 as his overall for the EOY english exams.Sigh... maybe it's just favouritism, a whole lot of exaggeration and contradiction on Mrs Chua's part. Anyways, Nicholas was going on blabbing about how Me & Everyone else are all 'INFERIOR' to him.Typical NICHOLAS LEONG.But somehow, I know deep inside, he's a good friend :) I returned Jiayang his 30 bucks today, but I wasn't able to pay gengting, as I realized that I had left most of my $$ at home. Sorry Gengting!>< I'll be sure to pay you on wednesday.
