our 3rd PW rehearsal was yesterday and really, having more rehearsals doesn't help you improve unless u constantly put in much effort from the 2nd rehearsal and also provided u dun already feel sian. i actually missed out a slide altogether...
then there was the chinese lecture by mr chan, my ex-physics teacher. yes, u didn't read wrongly and he's still teaching physics now. he likes chinese very much although he was an AO student and began writing articles for the newspapers since he was in secondary school. he showed us some of his childhood photos during the start of his presentation and ka yan commented i looked like him when he was a student in tj. -_-" anyway not many AO people attended the lecture, including majority of my chinese A class. overall i think mr chan could have shared more but i think not many AO people will have the patience.
we followed the timetable for monday today and there was mass PE in the morning supposedly. not that i was particularly looking forward to that though. however there was a lousy assembly/civics period before it and was lousy bcos most people dunno where to go, plus the period is there just for the CTs to give out report cards. luckily mr ho made it fast and just left after giving the cards. then many many people showcased their dilly dally attitude by walking slowly and it almost took 25 minutes to get all people before the sports complex. the HOD as usual talked and talked until there was no time for PE (he expected it) and just let us off. lame.
there was a talk in the audi during maths lecture (lectures are the best times to interupt) and Dr Tan spoke to us. initially i thought it's the PW tutor but then it turned out to be an eloquent doctor talking about his experiences in yunnan treating the village people. totally enjoyed the talk, maybe i should have bought the book he wrote at $10.
i played the timpani for the 1st time during CO practice... i consider my performance ok though lion obviously prefers fast reaction people to play. well i think i can improve by next practice lah.
there are rumours that mr sherwin cheng is taking over ms choo to teach us physics next year. this isn't exactly good news to many boys in the class including me since we won't be able to slack anymore. according to my senior last time taught by him too, he can manage a cross combi class very well. actually we aren't cross combi since we take 2 sciences, although some people just dropped one. most people in the class wants ms choo to follow up but then she is simply too inexperienced and she knows it too. she's really not bad for a newcomer though. i dun want mr chan to take us back since he speaks too fast although his physics is very pro but i dun think i have the time to decipher his words next year.
life after promos isn't as good as it seems. should listen more to liu jia yue tuan then. ^_^
