mugging!
imagine mugging H2 chem and H2 econs near continously for your 1 week study break.
it's the near equivalent of shooting yourself in the head.
I'm left with 3 chapters for econs, and organic chem. =\ killer chem. and to think that I liked it alot in secondary school.
chem nearly killed me these days. so I decided to do maths for a change and give up on chem for now. or I'm so dead. and I'm behind for phys revision. I wonder if there's any consolation that I'm taking H1 physics.
crap. I'm tired and longing to sleep. but I just want to get more revision done. and I have SPA on monday. literally everyone is having theirs on friday! =\ and this whole study break I neglected my SPA, focusing instead on m content-based stuff for promos.
god. WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING?!
why am I procrastinating for SPA?!

stress.
jc life seems so sian to me sometimes, what with lectures, tutorials, band pracs.. it's like clockwork. and not to mention that lectures are super boring and very easy to doze off in.
and tests are coming in by the swamp. I had better be the half in 07s34 who passes chem. or I'll really cry. at least a B please. my maths is oh god. 7/15. dammit only half a mark! and it means I have to go for retest. =( econs lecture test on next mon, syf week some more. phys test.. duno how it went. sad case.
I miss commonwealth alot now when I think back about the good times. the blue uniform, the old campus on the hill, the band room(aka bomb shelter actually).. alot of things. the new campus is nice.. but I feel as though it lacks something.. the fond memories we had last time were in the old campus. the new campus seems too much like a.. well, school.
and I miss first 3 months period too. 07s27, love fiesta scdc planning com, 02 scdc shadows.. alot of things.

end of the week. =\
the fact I have to face up to. PAE period is over already. I can't afford to pon anymore important lectures and tutorials, except maybe chinese appreciation sessions since I already dropped H1 chinese.
NO MORE CHINESE FOR ME! =D at least now I have more time to concentrate on my 3 H2s.. and no need to fret over chinese. from what I heard about the chinese lectures so far, it's just learning of idioms and all that.
WAH BIANG. waste time only. can't chinese lessons be more interesting and constructive?
woke up super late today, but I still felt very sleepy. somehow I just wanted more sleep and I felt abit miserable.
I feel a twinge of regret that I didn't run for student council, cos I know that I'd be missing out on alot of fun that they would have but we would not have.. so as small consolation, I'd most likely join OGLs for orientation 2008. at least I can have abit of fun as an OGL, and have my own OG.
been reading some of the shadows' blogs over the last few days, the same thing that's been troubling all of us has been voiced out in there. STUDENT COUNCIL!
everyone's asking me if I would run for student council, some of the shadows trying to persuade me to try out, even though I may not get in eventually. but upon weighing the pros and cons...
PROS-have more fun
-gain more leadership experience
-get the opportunity to plan for important school events
-have a better chance to gain university admission
CONS-results will VERY LIKELY suffer
-gain parents' displeasure
-come home very late nearly everyday
-very little time on your hands to study
-not enough time to rest when you need it
-alot of stress, pressure and expectations. way more than when you're in shadows.
see, the cons outweigh the pros. it's such a tight spot, being in councillor is fun.. but unfortunately it has to come with a price.
this week I've been hanging out with the shadows and a few of the OGLs cos it's mass lecture week and class allocation still hasn't been finalised yet..
when 07s34 timetable comes out, there wouldn't be much time to hang out with the shadows and all. I just hope that I can adapt to 07s34, it's so much different compared to 07s27.. and for PW, please, I hope I can get decent group members, none of them who are lazy or always irresponsible, and that I'm NOT made the group leader. if anyone makes me PW group leader, I'll scream.
mugging period's started already.. been hitting it out hard on maths chem and econs.
and tml's celeste's birthday! happy birthday to you in advance! now you're 18.. =D

stress.
Damn. I'm screwed. Chem test today went badly, I couldn't remember how to do some of the questions. and I didn't do 1 question at all! OMG. And I was hoping to do well for the first chem test in JJC. at best, I might just scrape through. Damn. Apparently I didn't study enough.. Because I was too slack, during CNY period I didn't have that much time to sit down and stare at my books.
School today was.. abit dull. only went for GP tutorial and chem lecture(test). civics and chinese I ponned. I always end up stoning during these periods anyway.
When school ended at 1, me shiyun and shihui went to JP to buy a present for one of the J2 councillors. [shall not say his name cos if he comes by my blog and finds out.. we're dead. haha] went around for ages trying to decide something that was nice and within our budget.
It reminded me of the time when last june, me jocelyn and jingni came to JP as well to buy presents for the whole percussion section. Trying to find something suitable for padey and syahir=hell.
We walked around JP in circles, looking in every shop for something suitable. the only problem was that what we found suitable, was too expensive. dammit.
So me shiyun shihui faced that same problem.. the presents thing is more or less settled, now what's left is the card. hand-made! doing it in school tml. =)
reached back to school at around 3.15, rushed to band room to hear christofle playing the familiar sax solo in 7th night of july. I took over ying han at the mallets.. thank god I still remember my part! after about 2 years not seeing the score.
went through the piece again, this time I took over victor at snare drum. I suck. My roll still sounds horrible. no thanks to not enough practice at the snare and the fact that I major in mallets.
shadows meeting after that, discussed some stuff about our proposals, then polished up our mass dances and cheers. at least everything went quite smoothly today. so thanks for that. even though I'm dead exhausted.
michael, victor, ying han, PLEASE don't say I'm pro. I really don't think I'm that good, I'm only just abit above average, that's all. I'm still just an ordinary percussionist. period.
I feel really bad that I have to keep pangseh-ing the percussionists everytime because of shadows. I really enjoy it in shadows although it's tiring and stressful, but also I realised that in the midst of enjoying myself in shadows, I also may make the percussionists unhappy with me in the long run. so what if I'm a fairly good percussionist? if my band attendance sucks, it's also no point. I might as well not have joined JJ band in the first place. and especially to christofle, I know that you face alot of problems in band because of the low attendance rate and everything.. =( I'm really sorry you guys!
I'll do whatever I can to keep my attendance rate regular.. =)
