Theory exam 2day!! AHH!!!

Hi friends,

Took my Grade 5 theory exam in the morning juz now at MDIS. I finished in 1 hr 30 mins. Very slow I know. Because I realised a darn error and spent my life (okay fine, not my life but 10 minutes of my life??)correcting it. I wasn't nervous or what, I think I can pass. I hope, I mean. Die die must pass or can't take ABRSM violin exam higher grade next year.

I am not very sure what is the most difficult part but I know that I lost 4 marks. They asked us to name two standard orchestral percussion instruments, one with definite pitch and one with indefinite pitch. For the definite pitch one I wrote glockenspiel, which is not a standard orchestral instrument. For indefinite I wrote kettledrum which is a standard orchestral instrument but it has a definite pitch. Very diao, I KNOW. dotz...

I am so gonna hate my paper. Damn. I have to prepare for my violin lesson now, so I'm ending here, will post updates on the later hours of the day if I have time...so bye for now.

Cheers

Yesterday, my Maths. Today, my Science. DARN DAMN DOOM NOOO

Hi friends,

Today's results was a bummer. I totally flunked my Science at a sucking result of 75/100. The highest in TAG4 is, 92!!! Dang. I studied soo hard and I didn't get my desired 80. WAAAHH(If only Blogger would install emoticons!) Thought of the day-never study hard at a subject you are not so good at. Nothing will work. okay fine just joking. Wouldn't be serious about that, cos my Math improved from last year whilst my Science dropped???

The circuit board science project sucks...Our group couldn't decide on a day to stay back and work on it. And we did almost nothing again. I suggested the weekend and was greeted with an immediate uproar of "NO!"s. Well, I was kinda happy about that, I wasn't willing to sacrifice my weekend anyway. I've plenty to load my hands with already.

Anyway, today something crazy happened in class-a friend (will not specify names for fear of getting killed, but you know who by now anyway) accidentally threw a thumbtack on my classmate's chair and that classmate sat right on it! *gasp* He jumped, pulled the thumbtack out and he was like, "Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding?" And I was like, what would happen if he was? Scary...but anyway he wasn't, much to my relief. And then everybody started laughing...

Today we got back our mystery story and I got a 25/40 for the first time in my life, so embarrassing!! But I expected it anyway. I haven't got a flair for writing mystery stories, cos I hate them so much, so difficult to write! A feat beyond my means. Why did it have to be my school work???!!!

There's good news, still. Miss Gillian didn't tell us our compo exam marks, but she did say a couple of names that did well in the exam. I congratulate you, if you are reading this and are one of them.

BTW it's my theory Grade 5 tomorrow! I...AM...SO...SCARED!!!!!!!...Please wish me luck and I will wish you the same.

Gotta go do my chinese zuo wen now...bye for now! Look out for more fun things like the Big Red Button...trying to get more fun stuff to add!

NOOO!!! My maths!!!! NOOOOO!!!!

Hi friends,
Today I got back part B of my Maths paper and it SUCKED!!!! Now in total, I have 74/100...And the highest was full marks??!!! I'd love to know who that person is. That's like, 26 marks difference!!! Worse still, I lost marks from carelessness and reading the questions wrongly, so I know that's not the score I deserve! IT'S NOT! I hate my paper...so hate my paper...:( (I wish Blogger can use emoticon leh)

My Maths dropped, my Chinese dropped, WHAT COULD BE WORSE...??? Okay fine I could list a couple of things that are worse :p But you know what I mean.

Darn, not only do I have my horrible results to face, I have a stupid Grade 5 theory paper on Saturday and I still can't memorise my terms and instruments and everything! In other words I am not ready. I might as well go hang myself! Good thing is, I have a couple of pals 2 keep me company, including Ruijun, Yunqi, my neighbour... Wish me luck, will ya?

As if I haven't got enough IvP, exams and projects, I was registered for a Suzuki Level 5 test in December, MY HOLIDAY MONTH!!! Arggh. I so totally stink at that piece, hearing it is equivalent to hearing a howling cat and wailing bat drowning in a pile of fresh deep crap. Or any way u want to describe it.

Here's some good news, class photos were out today! :) Lots of comical, hilarious shots! My fav was a picture of Wilson being strangled by Delvin...*evil laughs* I won't say I looked too good, but passable lah. I loved the shots of hand guns pointed towards a head, Mr Slappy Hands and Mr Pointy Hands bullying chen lao shi, friends crinkling and corrugating their faces into twisted, laughter inducing looks...lol!!

Ending off here, just wanna wish all pupils taking Grade 5 theory on Sat as well as all table tennis team members in their M'sia competition good luck. Enjoy ur trip, Xiamen pupils.

And I thought school was over!

Hi Friends,

Just got back my Chinese paper today and it stinks a mile away! I don't believe I lost to the classmates I used to win! I got a horrible 47/60. NOooooo!!! Must buck up liao. Hopefully I can depend on my other common tests to pull me up...

My exams ended officially today with my last exam, YAY!! But school's not over. Boohoo. My science teacher landed a stupid project in our hands and must be finished by TOMORROW in CLASS!!! How on earth is that possible??!! Questions not ready and not discussed...no idea of how the circuit is supposed to be connected...How can like that??!! To make things worse my IvP project is not completed and I am stuck with an awful Tan Kah Kee competition application. Now I wish I joined DI!

At least there's good news...my parents are bringing me to genting for 4 nights in December! Yay!!!!! Looking forward to that. But first, I have to finish my Grade 5 Theory exam and my Suzuki Level 5...wish me luck, will ya?

Cheers

Exam results back! Whoo!!!

Hi friends,
I just got results for my last English and Part 1 of my Math papers. I was totally hyperventilating while waiting for my English results because I had placed all my hopes on this paper to get me a place on the prize giving podium for English. Well, I still have to consider my oral and compo, but I was sure that this paper would play a big part. Even if I don't get it, at least I am totally satisfied with my marks....thought I was dreaming!

I am revealing my marks now: - English: 89 half/95
- Maths Part 1: 31/40
- SS: 43/50

Yeah!! So happy...and tomorrow's my LAST AND VERY LAST exam - Chinese listening compre, which is totally chickenfeet. And then, I can say that I have survived this year! And then I would be free!!!!!! Well, not really...

Anyway, Mdm Leow told us our CIP duties today and it involves art and a partner. Dang, I so totally suck at art! And now, I am torn between who to be my partner: An Yee or one of my best gal pals: Ruijun/Huiwen/Jamie. Argh. Now what...?? I just hate this my art stinks a mile away!

By the way I discovered this really cute widget and I hope it will entertain you for a while... Let's see how far u can go! This will carry on for eternity...don't believe then try lah! Lets see how smart you are. Clue: No matter what, always click the red buttton and if it disappears find it!



Put The Big Red Button on your site
