there are just so many tests nowadays, and somehow they have become more important since they will end up in that progress report to replace the original march common test. it's not nice to have 2/20 on something to show your parents u know.
i received the results of the open book maths test which happens to be the first maths test i failed in jc. very saddening since it covers very basic topics like AP & GP. and also people who never get higher than me does. but i just dun have the knack for AP & GP. same for the maths S selection test, which includes AP & GP, binomial and trigo. that'll be the second upcoming maths test i'll be failing. so i fall into the category of mr ho's "dunno how to think out of the box" kind of people. blah, drop maths S then drop lor, the questions require me to think too much. concentrate more on physics to make cheow wee happy, better hor?
yesterday ms wong spent one whole period "lecturing" us. reminds me of the first lesson with her last year, when she also spent an entire period talking to us. yar, she always cares a lot about us, but i have to disagree with her about rjc students really doing independent studies. your head lor. rjc is the school that really feeds them with plenty of notes. when i mean plenty, i mean extra info that's not really in the syllabus and of cos, difficult questions that test too much on your concepts. how i noe this? from outside chem tuition.
last saturday was road run... it's the first time i ran 5 km! never ran during VS cross country before... haha. running within 30 min is quite an achievement for me, dun laugh ok. wad is laughable is the drinks supplied by the school for the road run. extremely diluted ribena with the slight red colour and ester smell really doesn't suit my taste. where's that milo truck?! very very stingy. we can raise so much money for the student welfare fund which is supposed to help students who need financial aid, but who's looking after our welfare?
speaking about welfare, perhaps i should have raised this up during the SC dialogue session, which i think less than 25% of year 2s turned up. good job, people. oops, i dun mean the councillors of cos. they have the cheek to tell us we have to be courteous, not spouting vulgarities and no personal attacks when asking questions. a helpful guy asked why we had to pay $3 for temasek idols and we really got a very courteous reply. want to fight ah, issit? slap u ah, i tell you. yes, $3 doesn't seem much but it does fulfil a meal at the hawker centre. might as well save more $3 for Kbox and sing all i want better.
i'll like to see this appear in the next temasek times, which is free:
"our college loudmouth, ms cecilia xiao has just been found guilty of CHEATING during a maths lecture test held on 23 Feb. she will be stripped of all duties in the student's council and be suspended 2 weeks from school. this time is given to her to reflect on her lousy CHEATING skills, plus hopefully, SHUT her up."
p.s. the above is true ok, i got spies in the student body. =)
