Prelim Results, Study Order

English: 66%
Comments: Not bad, considering I didn't even get the format for situational writing correct. 31/50 for my Comprehension and Summary, 22/30 for my Composition and 16/30 for my Situational Writing. Assuming I had gotten 21 for Situational Writing with the correct format, I'd get A2 at least.

Elementary Mathematics: 56% (+5 moderation, makes this 61%)
Comments: No idea. I keep either making careless mistakes or just flat out not understanding the question - it's too stupidly simple that it's complicated, oxymoron much. For example, I know how to calculate for interest questions, but I simply don't understand the goddamn question.

Additional Mathematics: 67% (+10 moderation, makes this 77%, my only A1)
Comments: Awesome! 3rd highest in class for Additional Mathematics - surprisingly my best subject despite being my worst one last year. Lucky I didn't drop it.

Chemistry: 44% (+5 moderation, 49%, fuck)
Comments: Well, shit. I should've studied more. I can't drop this subject for sure.

Biology: 62%
Comments: See Chemistry comments.

Geography Core: 53%
Comments: I actually don't care, I hate this subject. I should've gone History Core Lit. Elect.

History Elective: 54%
Comments: I didn't do SBQ. Lol. 19/25 for Essays, 8/25 for SBQ - because I skipped the last 2 SBQ questions.

Social Studies: 56%
Comments: I'm pretty bad at this subject.. must mug!

Best L1R5: EL(B3), Geog(C6), Combined Humans(C5), EMath(C5), AMath(B3) -> 26

Best L1R5 after Moderation: 23 (-3 from +15 marks total)

Hm.. looking at these results, I have to study the subjects in this order.

1. Chemistry (44%)
2. History Elective (54%)
3. Social Studies (56%)
4. Elementary Mathematics (56%)
5. Biology (62%)
6. Geography Core (53%)
7. Additional Mathematics (67%)
8. English (lolwut)

Mid-Prelims

No motivation to post, but anyway it's mid prelims now.

So far, I've done the History Elective exam, Social Studies exam, E Math and A Math Paper 1s, Chemistry Paper 2 and English. This means I have Geography Core, E Math and A Math Paper 2s, Biology Paper 1 and Paper 2, Chemistry Paper 1. Which isn't much left if I think about it, I won't be studying for either mathematics although I'll be doing a bit of practice. Geography... I'll just look through my notes a bit. As for Chemistry, I'll read through my guidebook and do a MCQ paper or 3 from my Ten Years Series. I'll study for Biology.

But that said, I've been pretty lucky so far. For my Social Studies exam, I was pretty sure the teachers were going to try and screw us lazy faggots who only studied Venice over, and they'd put it in the SBQ since it was pretty much confirmed it'd be in the examination. Who knew that they would end up putting it as one of the SEQ questions anyway, although the questions were relatively difficult compared to those from the other chapters. And why I'm lucky? Because despite thinking that Venice wouldn't come out, I studied it anyway. Thankfully I didn't study the Singapore topics, which I knew would come out, since one was in SEQ and the other was in SBQ.

Similiarly for History I decided that I'd just study one chapter and hope for the best - End of World War I. I didn't expect myself to be so lucky as to get that as an SEQ, and I'm also pretty damn lucky I didn't bother studying Naziism which was my other plan - they put that as SBQ. I skipped half of the SBQ questions though, I focused on the Essay and although I had some extra time left after finishing my History essays, my hand was too tired (literally couldn't properly hold the pen) to do any more writing.

Add. Maths was okay, I feel sorry for all those who studied (I didn't) and still ended up skipping more marks than I did. Darren was quite sad, but honestly I don't feel that sorry for him. Dornel, kinda. Joshua.. yeah.

I've been playing League of Legends recently, it's like an addiction. I play like 4 games a day (averaging 40 minutes each, shorter than DotA) and often play with Rael and his level 30 friends - although I have to say one of them is quite a dick to enemies and sometimes teammates. The game itself is fun, it's much more intense and faster-paced than DotA - something I haven't touched in awhile (already a week I think, last time I only played two games to appease Merrill and Jon Wei - the latter has already started playing LoL). However it's annoying that the teammates tend to either not talk or be uncooperative, usually both now that I think about it. Worst thing is, it'll be switching to the Garena servers soon and I expect many leavers when it transfers over.

Well, that's a long post.

Anime Summer

Watching Ookami-san, Amagami SS, Campanella, Highschool of the Dead, Strike Witches 2 and that OVA thing, Aki Sora: Yume no Naka.

Haven't posted in awhile, feels like I'm starting to lack the motivation to keep this up even to act as a diary of sorts. I don't particularly feel like typing all the shit out either since when I come home I just feel like relaxing and this isn't very relaxing.

GF'10, Holidays so far

I haven't actually studied yet.
The first week I decided I'd refrain from studying thanks to the Holiday Camp.
Well, I did study on Monday and a bit on Tuesday, but Wednesday and Thursday was GayFest'10 and on Friday, I had to go out until like 6 and I was pretty tired by the time I came back - I fell asleep really fast after coming home.

Anyway, GF'10 was fun. Playing tennis and all that shit was fun, going out with friends to eat was fun, it was a rather refreshing change from sitting there and playing MW2 (which I chose to sit out on by watching Durarara! after playing a few matches) or DotA or whatever. The next day I left kind of early compared to Dornel and Merrill, at 4:30pm.

I'm planning on buying a SOS-dan jacket. It'd be easier to wear in public and still shows the same thing of my person in general. Anyway, need to go to Popular and get an assessment book or five, also need to do A Math and Social Studies homeworks.

Good luck guys, have fun in your holidays. I doubt I'll make a post for the remainder of this holiday, unless something interesting happens.

Oh yeah, I had a dream about L4D where Singapore was being infected and on the way home from fetching me from a outing midway (because of the infection), my mom was infected. And I had to shoot her, the dream ends there. But that was outright traumatic, I woke up really messed up and disturbed. Maybe because the dream ended a few seconds after shooting my mom in the head, and then my gun (don't ask where I got that shit from) gets jammed and the taxi driver goes WTF.

End of F.O.C.U.S Camp, Start of Holi-study-days!

Forcing
Our
Children
Undergo
Studying

CAMP!
Engrish!

Focus Camp is finally over, today was the last of it. With my return trip home, I bring a large pile of books - enough to cause me to fall backwards while carrying my bag. And that's only half of my books, I carry the other half with my hands. Going to have study quite a bit this holiday for the prelim examinations, I heard from Darren that people who get over 20 for their L1R5 will have it tough from The Big O.

Anyway, other things to look forward to this holiday?
- SOME RELATIVELY WELL-DESERVED R&R!
- FINISHING OFF FINAL FANTASY XIII
- BUYING NEW ASSESSMENT BOOKS FOR PRACTICE
- FINALLY BEING ABLE TO WAKE UP REALLY EARLY TO PLAY DISSIDIA

I'm looking forward to not having to go to school for awhile. Heh heh.

I thought I had a lot of things to say but I guess I'm wrong.

Cold Breath

I woke up pretty late today. I only got out of bed at 11, though I woke up earlier on at 8. Honestly, I didn't do much. I tried to do my homework for an hour or so, but I got really frustrated with the new Additional Mathematics topic homework, which is on Integration to find the Area of a Graph. After wrestling with the questions for nearly 50 minutes, I decided to put it away and do my Geography, but I guess from the frustration of Add. Maths, I couldn't take it. My willpower really sucks. Anyway, after that I just surfed the internet for a bit, and then played Maple Story until 4:20, when I started to feel really bad headaches and went to sleep. Woke up at 5 and went to school because of PLC dinner.

Apparently the damn thing starts only at 7:30, so I have no idea why they asked us to assemble at 5. Just kind of lazed around with Jerald and later on Thomas, watching people play soccer and almost getting hit like 4 times. And I don't mean the ball missed me, I mean I had to dodge out of the bloody way of a high speed ball.

Anyways, was walking home from Commonwealth MRT. I thought I could get to the next bus stop before the 105 bus came because I had no bag, and the 105 bus was coming only in 8 minutes as listed by the bus time board at the MRT station - if I got to the next bus stop, I could take almost 7 different buses straight home. Of course, karma decided to kick my balls and it started to rain VERY heavily half way through my walk. I had to run about 5 minutes in heavy rain, it was pretty fucked up in my opinion.

Ah, great DotA games today. Best one was the one where I played Techies, we were (or at least, I was) tearing up the game at first, but we had no hard carries. That was our biggest mistake, I suppose, we didn't end it early. Later on, Phantom Assassin and Sven on the other team got really fat, and the rest of them were also above average. Thanks to a lot of GREAT teamwork and effort put in by everyone, we finally managed to turn the tables in the end (they were at the point where PA could destroy our team in 2 hits if he critical'd, and Sven had 2 battlefuries - when combined with his stun, it was horrible). Honestly I thought we'd lose for awhile, but I figured we still had a chance if we fought well enough - and we did. So yippee.

Yeah.. blargh.
