O gosh.. something happened to my computer and i haven't save the entry i had just blogged.. so here i m typing everything all over again.. should have saved it.. damn..

i am once again back here.. let's go back and see what happens in this whole week of my life.. basically, this whole week is just returning exam papers and going through the answers.. here it goes..

Monday
Got back most of the prelim papers.. most of the periods were used to check the marks and go through the prelim papers.. therefore, we did not have any lessons.. was asked to do some target setting stuff by mr tan.. wrote rubbish on the 'remarks' column.. actually it was for you to write what are the factors which prevented you from acheiving your predicted grades.. anyway, i asked all of you to have a try on guessing the phone bill i got regarding the last entry, but no one did tag anything on the tagboard so i shall annouce the answer now... Drums rolling***** Cameras rolling and ACTION!!! the amount i had to pay for the phone bill was $23.. it's SGD and not rapiah okay!! and some of you might think that the duration was like half an hour or so.. but you are wrong.. i just used it like for 3 to 5 minutes?? and that's the amount i had to pay.. (to be exact my parents had to pay) so what i want to advise all of you is that please please please don't ever use your handphone to call back to Singapore from any parts of Indonesia.. i think it will cost you a bomb.. i encourage all of you to use the public phone there.. (if you are able to find one)

Tuesday
had my very very last PE lesson in my secondary school life.. will not be having anymore PE lessons because in the coming next 2 weeks, the secondary 4s will be having their post prelims activies.. not activities.. activities sounds like having fun.. it's actually some intensive revision programme.. anyway i was asked to go back to school every saturday morning by teo pat to attend his maths remedial lessons.. hey, it's not that i did not do well for my prelims.. i passed okay.. it's just that he expected my class to get all As for o levels if it is possible.. so i was asked to go back.. i did asked him why must he put it on weekends instead of weekdays.. he say that he wanted us to commit ourselves to go back to school to revise.. huh??!! was the 1st word that came out from my mouth.. don't really understand what he was thinking.. but i will be going this saturday for the very 1st time.. if its wasting my time i may not be going the next saturday..

Wednesday
Got back biology results.. okay i didn't managed to pass afterall.. i think that i should have passed because this time round i did study for it.. haha but 2nd thoughts.. no i deserved the marks i got now.. it's because i didn't managed to finish studying all the biology chapters.. studied like 10 out of 22 chapters?? and i thought that the biology practical paper was rather easy.. but it turns out the opposite from the marks i got.. i failed the practical... i think the paper is quite RIDICULOUS and very very DEMANDING.. you will have to write and explain so many things and you will only be AWARDED 2 MARKS for it!! it's like wasting your pen ink for nothing.. i didn't even bother to check if i could get some more extra marks because these 2 or 3 extra marks are unable to allow me to pass the paper.. (i failed the paper badly.. E8 i mean)

Thursday
had english lesson and attended a very valuable english lesson.. what did we do for english lesson?? we were 'introduced' to choice and count your blessings.. mrs sum told us that we choose our own paths.. and she gave us an article from the newspaper.. it tells us that we should not list out the pros and cons before choosing and deciding what we want.. we should go towards the direction of what we really want and what we really like.. we shouldn't go towards a direction which friends and families think.. eg.. you like to do job A however it has long working hours and have to be on standby 24 hours a day.. but other people thinks that job B is a better choice because it has higher salaries and shorter working hours.. and in the end you choose job B instead of A.. although you have shorter working hours, you will still feel very tired and do not enjoy what you are doing.. however if you had chosen job A, although there are long working hours, you will not feel tired and enjoy working.. this is because of one work 'PASSION'.. although it may be a small little one letter word, it is very powerful.. it can energize you when you are tired.. (like a battery)
what about count your blessings?? it means that we should look on the brighter side of everything.. eg.. you got your car involved in a minor car accident.. you shouldn't be frowning and grumbling about how much you should pay to repair your car.. but cout your blessings.. think that at least you have a car to repair.. some people do not even have to afford a car and get it involved in an accident.. another eg.. you did very badly for your exams.. you should also count your blessings instead of being sad.. you should think that at least you have examinations to take.. other children from poor countries do not even have books to study and exams to take.. so everyone, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.. i think it will be able to make you into a happier and livelier person.. went for physics lesson and was scolded for not going for afternoon remedials.. was actually supposed to go for this physics remedial conducted by mr leong, an ex-teacher from the school.. he took leave just to come back to school to teach us and i didn't turn up for a single one for the past few days.. mrs lim scolded us for being irresponsible and not informing her that we are not going.. oh.. thinking of it, i felt so gulity to mrs lim and the band.. for the past 4 years in band, we had always been taught to inform anyone in your own section if you are not turning up for practice.. and now.. i had not even informed mrs lim about it for the past few days.. i m so so dead.. so sorry mrs lim and mr leong (i don't think he knows who am i except for my name).. where is the usual me?? in the past, i would have at least gave a call or sms to someone to inform if i m not going for practices.. got to find myself back quickly..

Friday
o the day i had been waiting for every week had finally arrived.. did chemistry practical for the 1st 3 periods and managed to finish 2 practicals.. will have to stay back on monday to do another practical.. sian.. anyway, i was informed by mrs chua that i will be going over to have lessons with 4e6 and 4e7 for all the chemistry post prelim revision.. this means that i will be 'under her care'.. anyway that's not why i mention this here for.. the most important thing is that i have air con for lessons.. it's much much better than having it in the classroom when it may be quite hot and humid when it's in the late morning and afternoon.. i don't mind going there because i got lots of friends in that class too.. who knows i will be having lots of fun there.. haha.. awaiting for the day to come.. =) after chemistry was combined humanities and english.. had to do this difficult english paper 2 from ngee ann.. i can't understand the passage at all.. got quite a few mistakes.. lucky i didn't have this kind of passage for prelims or i would have failed badly.. let's hope that we will not be having this kind of paper for the o levels.. x)

2 weeks to o levels practical exams..
