hello there. well the past few days (and by that i mean yesterday and today) have been fairly inconsequential. i got my haircut yesterday (another bad one), and then i met cliff and luke at great world to watch deck the halls. haha it was an average movie. quite ok. we then went to shaw to get our uniforms and then i headed home to watch TV. i cycled to the apple shop at cineleisure today to try and get my iPod exchanged but the warranty is up and it's damaged beyond repair, so i'll be getting the new (or not so new) 30GB model tonight. hopefully haha. well i'll be going on a hike tmr with cliff and won't be back till friday, and then i'll be off to Denver the next day and won't be back till the 23rd.
jasper wang (and many other ppl i'm sure) have already started studying! it's really really intimidating to know that ppl are already putting in so much effort. i remember last year melvin showed me his life sciences notes that he compiled and i was like 'crap. i haven't even started'. in the end i did better than him haha. anyway it's just that some ppl really study so hard at the start and everything but in the end ppl who don't study as hard still end up doing better. for example, sean lee studied considerably hard for this year's EOYs while cliff, dwayne and i will still sessioning like the week before the exams. and yet we still did better. i'm not saying that i didn't study cos i did. and i studied quite hard. but not as long or aas hard as others. then in the weeks preceding the exam when ppl ask me whether i've studied and i say no then they'll say 'yeah right. he probably says no and is actually studying so much at home'. that really really irks me cos i genuinely don't study till the last minute if not i'll forget. then there are also ppl like joash wong who hardly even study and he stills does so well. and he's reading manga before the tests while we're revising. MANGA!!!! naturally smart ppl like boobs and joash wong huai en can afford to that. anyway just FYI i haven't started studying yet and i don't plan to. cos by starting to study now it'll only be jumping on the bandwagon cos other ppl are. for me, i work better under pressure cos the days before my exam i'll actually be cramming for say bio. and cramming actually works for me cos i still remember a lot. lol but i can't cram next year though. i'll probably start 3 months before the exam instead of 3 days, like i did for bio, geog and social studies. or some like physics and chem which i just practiced the night before. and i did well in those as compared to bio and stuff. weird huh? aptitude i guess. hm. this rant isn't really coherent huh? there's no main point of focus for the paragraph. well, that's my rant. till friday (or saturday)!! bye!
