During the I am Gifted Programme, our Trainers told us to do this subject breakdown list to list all the chapters for each subject.
Afterwards, using this list, we had to plan our timetable for the year.
We had to slot in a day for study for a chapter, a day after that to revise that chapter, a week after that to revise the chapter again, and a month later to revise the chapter to ensure it stays in our brain.
And this was just for one chapter of only one subject.
I had at least 10-20 chapters for all my subjects.
While planning, I realized one thing.

It was that I wished CCAs have ended so I concentrate fully on my studies.

This is rather suprising since I used to love band with so much passion in the past, looking forward to every band practice.
But after I became a Sec 4, I lost that passion due to various factors. And coming for band isn't something I look forward to much, because we have to practice for SYF, get angered by juniors, and there are piles of work waiting for me back home.

The bright side is that step down is just a month away. After that, I can go home early on Mondays and Thursday to study~ And I can wake up early on Saturday not to go for band, but to study :)

Anyway, I am about to disappear from the face of the internet. I just deactivated my fb account!

After eating a number of chocolates from Limelight...



I realised that

Too much chocolate...isn't a bad thing actually :D


And I like chocolate more than I thought I did.

Sec 1s are irritating.

-.- Can't be bothered about them.

Anyway, it's time I meet my doom tomorrow.
I am so dead for Geography + SS.
How I wish my oh-so-absorbent sponge-like brain would start working properly.
Or that active transport takes place from the textbook(high concentration) to my brain(even higher concentration...hopefully)

:'(

I am so sad/tired.

I plan what to study every single day.
But then, we have so much homework that I can't study what I planned to study.
So, I push the studying back and fix it on another day.
But another day comes, and more homework.
And I don't have much time to study.

So I stay up late to chiong homework with the thought that, hopefully I can study.
Which makes me so tired.

WHY??? I want to study so badly!!! But then I have to complete my homework...
Not studying what I planned to study makes me think I'm behind schedule and this makes me sad...


Sigh.

OMG. So many things to do....
There's:
emaths homework (x3)
amaths homework (x1)
geography homework (x2)
SS project (x1)
Chem TYS
Phy 09 & 10 CT paper
Mark phy weekend assignment (x1)
Mark Amaths weekend assignment (x3)
Mark Chem hol hw (x1)
Study for Phy + Amaths CT = do 1000000 practices

Also, this isn't homework, but i want to do it:
Physics longman book on static
Study reproduction in plants

• reading textbook + notes
• doing workbook
• doing self assesment books
• Bio TYS

And i need to write limelight notes...

I originally thought that we were exempted from CTs next week, so i wanted to study Probability. But i guess I have to put that on hold, so I can study for CTs properly.

SIGH.

Anyway, I need to say something : I LOVE DIFFERENTIATION~
I have never felt that life with Amaths was this easy, until I met you. You let me see the light at the end of the tunnel. I love you.

OMFG

For Bio SPA I wrote recorded my readings in the table in PENCIL!!!
SHIT
DIEEEEEEEE
HOWW????
O LEVEL LEH....
*SCARRED FOR LIFE*

:'(

Also had HCL Test today.
Which I am going to flunk, given the lame, retarded answers I gave for the compre.

Anyway, I think I understand Differentiation~ Thanks to Andrea for teaching me (Y)

On a side note, i think a lot of people are asking for refunds for their limelight tickets...And so far, for the limelight class list thingy, NO ONE is buying tickets...

WELL...expected.

While going home with Geraldine today, she showed me all her pretty and colourful stickers from Korea. And it's quite cheap as well, like 50cents a sheet. I WANT IT SO BADLY:'( So jealous... at least she gave me a tiny sheet :D

I keep slacking nowadays. Totally different from a few weeks before CNY when I was so hardworking and I studied almost every single day.
The passion for studying just fizzled out.
Need to ignite the spark again.

I decided to reread Elaine's Nanowrimo while slacking. And though I've read it before, I'm still super amazed by her grasp of English, her use of bombastic words and colourful vocabulary, her description of the slightest actions, the little details, the wonderful story development, the unexpected twists, the beautiful storyline.
How many people can actually write like her?
Few.
In Singapore.
I sound like her fan or smth HAHA
but seriously, her stories are great.

GRRR!!!

I've been harping on this issue since Monday.

Ever since the teachers announced that there they are taking out the intermission for limelight.

OMG. I am damn sad. Intermission is like, the best part of the concert. And they take away the best part! What for??? So the concert will end 30mins earlier? Intermission isn't even 30 mins long-.-

Response no. 1 from anonymous: WHAT? No intermission??? Just to end the concert early? Doesn't even make a difference!"

What irks me most is the fact that ending the concert early doesn't help much in tickets sales.
If people don't want to come, they won't buy the tickets, even if you shorten the concert by 1hr or slash the ticket price by half.
Excuses such as "Oh, it ends too late." or "Too expensive" or "I have CCA on that day" are just a nice way to phrase "I'm too lazy, so I won't go for your concert"

The main reason people do not want to come is that for Sec 4s, there's Common Tests the next day. Who wants to come if there's CTs?
CCA on that day + concert at night = Not being able to study for CTs
This means P(failing CTs)=0.99.
And no one wants to pay $11 so that they might fail their CTs. Only best friends + super supportive people would do that, and they are very rare. Few of such people exists in our school.

Okay. Here are 3 more comments from my friends after they knew that intermission was taken out.

Geraldine: "Huh? Then we come for what? Can't even meet you."

Simin: ":(. Waste money leh."

Natalia: "WHAT??? STUPID TEACHERS"

I'm sad there's no intermission because it's my last concert. And my relatives were all going to buy flowers for me for my last concert! They wanted to pass it to me during intermission. Also, Simin+Geraldine were going to give me their 爱心晚餐 and Nat was going to give me a present during the interval. But now, I can't recieve them anymore. :'( No 爱心晚餐 :'(

What a sad last concert.
