Dumb Rants
Attended AJC TED , a few months ago . Sharing from different type of speakers , students , entrepreneur ,agents .
All of them pointed out a question during the event ." What is your dream occupation in the future ? " ( Something along this line,cant rmb clearly).
All i remembered clearly in my mind was the sharing conducted by an Ex-Ajc Volleyballer (Ajc alumni). Humorous , tall , presentable and with a good flair in speaking .
Four things I remembered clearly : He skipped lectures and tutorials in JC .HE lost his father when he was young.Lastly he was identified by himself as one of the most successful person from his cohort that achieved this much . He was one of the youngest agent executive in the Great Eastern company . In just a duration of 5-6 years , his highest monthly income record reached a six-figure sum.
He shared something so important which enables him to achieve so much in life is by just having a CORE DESIRE .
Core desire , definition by him as something (in simpler term ) ,to have a goal in life . Yeah , we all know that , but how one is able to stick with this core desire and have an unwavering determination to fufil this desire is another question. The degree of closeness of this core desire to you is another part that contributes to the success part.
"The things that lie between impossible and possible is determination ". Yeah ! . The quote sounds very motivating right? Sadly , to obtain that determination you must willing to give up a lot of things in life . Its not mentioned in the quote too. ? Time ? Safety ? So you must be a risk-taker ?
Come on , life is just a stupid dumb irony ! No , or we people the society are the dumb ones ? Total incoherent right? We are being judged for every single shit we do . And the problem is we care about the judgements deep down in our heart (Maybe its just me) ? We are also responsible for judging others ? Why are we all have this dumb shit attitude and actions ? IS that human nature ? Who supposed to blame ? You , ? Me ? Your classmate? World most powerful person? Rant all you want and nobody gives a shit .
**Sorry for this dumb and stupid post , wanted to write about something positive such as core desire , in the end my train of thoughts went off and wrote this crap **

10 jan judgement day
I have no idea how to start on this post..i am currently awake in the middle of.night (2++am) .Having sleepless nights for the whole week partially due to all random thoughts that have been surfacing in my mind (worry for o levels results. . .flashback of memories with my friends. .wondering what they are doing in their holidays and etc) .
10 January 2013, the judgement day for all 2012 O Level candidates. A day that i hoped that it wont never come that fast. I was.enjoying my long well deserved break when.i realised that year 2013 had already started.
Soon this date had been announced and confirmed by MOE. Everyone starts to feel butterflies alive in their stomach or preparing for.their worst.come.to.worst.scenario results. .
As long as one has been consistently putting in effort and hard work into something , the reward may not come in sooner or later (maybe not in Os , not in As or not even IN UNI ).But i guarantee that it will come eventually later in life as long as one don't give up

First day of O Levels 2012
Okay O levels .. An obstacle that i had crossed and faced ...The results will be released tmr, on 10 Jan 2013 .Progress of overcoming this challenge . DAY 1 was too weird for me which i had my English papers . When i reached the school , beads of perspiration was already forming on my forehead .i saw some of my friends and classmates were chatting away while others were busily reading their notes . i joined the latter as i thought that reading my notes could reduce some of the nervous cells in me . However it was a bad decision that i made ,as i started to read my notes ..i sort of discover that i had forgotten some of my important phrases
Fear engulfed my heart as i imagined myself suffered an emotion break down in the examination hall.
Panic-stricken , i took a deep-breath and attempted to calm myself down . At that moment , my chemistry teacher walked past me and made a slight comment .. "Hey why you guys look so panic , no point studying already .. just go and relax your mind " i took his advice and put my notes away
.
I went to the canteen to search for my classmates .i found them .. mostly looking quite relaxed ..(most probably finished their revisions umpteen times at home already) .As i listened to their conversations , i kept silent .Not having the mood to speak ..and my sight were glued on my watch (monitoring the time countdown to the start of the first paper )Soon,most of the students began streaming into the sports hall to assemble .
However, at this point of time , one of my friends came and asked around about the type of pens they will be using....Something popped into my mind , i opened, rummaged through my pencil case and took out my signo uniball ultra fine pen(0.38) ..i tore out one of the paper from my exercise book and scribbled something on it while heading towards the water cooler ..Sprayed some water onto it and tried to rub off the ink from the paper .As it failed , i heaved a sigh of relief .
**Morale(1) of story:Just Use ballpoint pens for national exams.. Or i should say use ballpoint pens for all your prelims to make it a habit so that when the real exams come .it will be just a familiar feeling** WE assembled , listened to words of encouragement from teachers and heads and off we go to the mph ..
Morale(2) ** try to save the trouble and use a translucent pencil case ..or just a ziplock platic bags to put all your stationary.if not the examiner will have the rights to check your pencil case** ..
Anyway for me not much trouble, they didn't really check..just asked us to open our pencil cases and they just peeped as they walked by .As i approached my seat and feeling okay .. Same environment ..Same scene but just different invigilators ..sat down ..took out my pen ...and stared at the clock while waiting for instructions. .finally the examiner told us those admin stuff .. And gave us the call to start. Immediately, I flipped over the question paper. The one word title was the first word that i am looking out for. .narrative always been my best friend since young. .it came out as FAME. .i pondered for 2 mins. .and started recalling the 10 story-lines i have pre-prepared. .finally one got me an idea of twisting it to suit the storyline i started writing. .during midway. .i thought of changing storylines but still.managed to persuade myself to.continue with that original one. I rushed finished my essay in 55 mins...leaving another 45 mins for situational writing.
But i was unsure about the spelling of a few words that i wrote in my essay. Next, i turned my attention to the part 2. I read the scenario and looked through the options. .all looked so similar in strengths.tough decision to make. But the scenario was super familiar as though i read the model essay before . Indeed, Ms Teng gave a similar essay for us to read before. I read but just cant really recall. I spent too much time thinking and left very little time to write. sad to say i scribbled.my.way through.
My views on my paper 1 part 2 :
- All my ideas and points were very shallow
- Lousy grammar. .
- Awkward sentence structure
- Poor Organization of ideas and lack of proper planning
Haiz i really screwed up part 2 .As for part 1 just hoped that they would accept.my storyline and go easy on my spelling mistakes.. Something disgusting happened too while i was panicking. I started.scratching myself the arm area. .hence leading it to bleed when i got.home when the paper ended
All began to leave the hall and went discussing.mostly were smiles and laughter. .guess it was easy for most of them. I believed some of their hard work of memorizing essays worked. .a few even copied wholesale into their answer.
However , I think it was unfair and disgusting to do that. Yeah you can remember phrases, expressions and even storylines.But is it necessary to remember and copy down the whole freaking modal essay with almost zero.changes and editing?
Three reasons why i think it is bad
Firstly,it defeated the purpose of an ENGLISH EXAM. .might as well go to a MEMORY EXAM INSTEAD OF ENGLISH EXAM.
Secondly, i feel that it was a little bit dumb to do so. Do you think the examiners are retard?. .if you can write so beautifully for your paper 1 part 1 and come with easy and stupid grammar mistakes in paper 1 part 2.you are definitely.at risk of being discovered Plagiarism
Thirdly,; your English will never improve..even.if you are able to get into a good jc. GP IS WAITING FOR YOU..I WOULD REALLY WANT TO SEE HOW YOUR MEMORY WORK COME INTO A CRUSHING DEFEAT.
Noted no offense to those who did that , i am just expressing my views .
Btw this post was written on 9jan . It was only edited and posted today

PRELIM 1
CCHY PRELIM 1 2012 English-60% * Maths-79%
A-maths-73%
Physic-56%
Chem-53%
Combined Humanities-56%
Geo-45%
L1R5-21
Super Pathetic results
HARDLY SEE ANY EFFORT PUT IN BY ME
BOTH SCIENCES SCREWED
GEO FLUNKED
BOTH MATHS NOT UP TO EXPECTATIONS
*ENGLISH RESULTS SUPER FAKE (+5%) moderation IF you want to mark strictly go ahead ..50% cohort wiped out and then you guys decided to moderate the damn results to make people pass?Sorry i don't see any logic in it .MAKE US FEEL BETTER(HIDE US FROM REALITY?) OR JUST SIMPLY FOR THE SAKE FOR OTHER AGENDAS(DON'T WISH TO LIST OUT ) CONCLUSION: ENGLISH WEAK
Prelim 2- two weeks away
O-levels - 70++ days away
I despise myself and those friends who said ya ( 21 points okay what ? good what?)
It may seem that they have low expectations but the fact that WE have SIMILAR and great TARGETS .. DEEP IN THEIR HEART THEY HAVE ambitions LIKE THIS GET A SINGLE POINTER FOR PRELIMS AND OWN EVERYONE IN THE CLASS AND THEN TOP THE COHORT HONOUR ROLLS FOR O LEVELS beat the other class (results release 2013) ( maybe no more year 2013)
OR JUST HOPE FOR THE LAST PART TO HAPPEN MOST OF THEM .. in fact (just don't wish to generalize things )... WE OURSELVES KNOW ..WE THINK ..WE HOPE ...WE SAY OUT LOUD>>WE WRITE AND EVEN HOPE BUT ALMOST NONE DID ...
WE MAY SEEMED TO REFUSE TO FACE THE REALITY .. WE START TO PONDER REFLECT ..YEAH WE LOOK LIKE DARK HORSES overtaking soon ..CAN OVERPOWER PEOPLE ...When we fall. we act like one who understand our real mistakes and will be changing ..(super motivated) yeah i am gonna do this do that ..beat him ...beat her ... top the class... PERFECT MINDSET >>PERFECT ADRENALINE RUSH ..sorry it don't last long . IF we fall again , we will do the same thing ..over and over again till we are numb to the falling ..And people will start thinking and change judgements about us ..we just simply look weak to them ..thinking that only a couple maybe on par with them .
BIGGEST JOKE OF PLANET EARTH ... WHEN WE START to CONCERN ABOUT PPL's judgement and then at this point of time someone will step in and say "WE SHOULD DON'T CARE aBOUT HOW PPL JUDGE US,we are ourselves..and (suddenly something like this will pop out) we shall prove them wrong "
HAHAHA i really wish to laugh at this moment ... YEAH politically correct stuff everyone in this planet earth will know we should not care about other thinks of us , we just don't let ourselves down will do ...thats crap defying human nature ??? MOST OF US will assume that we actually can do it ...in the end and actually ... we definitely will get affected by ppl's comments and views about us (NORMALLY) defying "BEING NORMAL" is something we like to do isn't it.
THIS how realistic and genuine a person can be ...(yeah maybe it is just me)
There is another group of person i would like to comment on ..people who is so full of themselves and think that if they work hard confirm trash all of us..sorry i have to say a fact that indeed they have the potential to ACE AND TOP ..BUT their biggest obstacle to success is that irritating lousy attitude of theirs ..thus unable to reach their maximum even they try to work hard ...THEY CANT GO FAR IN LIFE WITH THIS ATTITUDE OF THEIRS
CONSOLATION :HOWEVER MOST OF US STILL HAVE VALUES in us no matter how far-fetched our attitude and thoughts may be
HOW DARING OF ME TO COMMENT ON PEOPLE ? AM I SOMEONE WHO FITS TO COMMENT ? WHO AM I ? YEAH KEEP COMMENTING ABOUT PEOPLE HOW ABOUT Yourself THINK ABOUT one's indiviual before saying about others ?
NOTE : JUST MY "HUMBLE" OPINIONS AND VIEWS ...NOTHING Merely BUT A TYPICAL OR EVEN LOUSIER BEING.

First DAy of Holiday
A-maths-C6(53%)
E-maths-A1(78%)
Physic-B3(65%)
Chemistry-B4(60%)
Higher Chinese-B4(60%)
I was devastated ..for particular, a-maths results ...even thought almost all my classmates had failed this test. This time round, it was set by MS WOO ( known to set to killer papers) ...The test was durable , in the sense no super hard questions ....Just need to think and twist a bit ..should be fine ..Ms tan gave me some comments saying the main thing i lack is self-confidence while doing the paper .My methods and concepts are correct but just lack of precision in my answer. The best class 's MSG was around 4 ...which means there is plenty room for improvement.i had learned something after this common test.."CARELESS " and " Insufficient time " will never be the excuses and reasons for one's failure , You will never succeed if you keep saying ..Aiaya careless , ..Aiya no time ... ! Not time , do faster next time (Proper time management )...Careless ..(practices more )be more careful next time ..
Physic ..i expected an A but due to strength of my concepts ..
My Biggest worry was CHEMISTRY and ENGLISH !
i fear to fail my chem again but luckily this time round ..i managed to get a B4 but i really hope that i can clinch a A1 in O levels ..As for English , it has been my weakest Subject since sec1 ..My poor foundation in my English Language had caused lots of remarks by my teachers ...Humanities ,Maths , Sciences and El teacher herself ..I will definitely try my best to improve my ENGLISH as it is my L1 but one fear always striken down in heart ..What if i did badly for English in "Os"i cant get into any jcs or i pass my engLish But badly causes my L1R5 to plunge cause me to get into a jc that is not my choice Or TYCO even get a good grade for English but failed to survive in JC GENERAL PAPER ???? These questions flooded my mind oftenly ......
Deep in my heart ..
I fear this fear that....
One can be super weak in Maths And sciences but lots of drilling can causes them back into track..
However, as for language ,(especially English) , how much drilling is useless..it is all about reading ,understanding and using it in everyday's lives .......i try to read as much as possible for now ...hoping to shape my foundation be more robust and firm ... Somtimes my standard of English is so low that my grades are poorer than those foreign students ..i ought to be ashamed of myself !!!
ENGLISH ~~~~~~~~ the language
i envious those who are strong in English , they can speak well and write well...
i think that writing Essays for English is my biggest weakness , the words dont seem to come out naturally form my mind . Sometimes even i speak too ..Ended up wasting a lot of time to think ...My use of words are generally too simple when i was nervous whenever i start writing essays in exams ..i may had perfect storyline but lousy language caused me to barely pass my essays .....grammar too...
i was often criticized by my English teachers.
"Weak in grammar"
"Too Simple use of vocabulary like primary school kids"
"WEAK IN ENGLISH:
These few sentences just cant get out of minds
But i can write very well in primary schools ..but after promoted to secondary school ..My English standard dropped drastically ..Dont know why...The envirnoment> > Too many friends speaking Chinese? Not sure...
Okay did some reflection ...Shall end with a daily quote ..
“I learned that one can never go back, that one should not ever try to go back - that the essence of life is to go forward. Life really is a one-way street.”

Last Day of COMMON TEST 1
This entry is never meant to reflect how bad or good i have done for the CT1.
To start off things right ,i have a good news :D i have successfully completed the NTUC U RUn OMB challenge ....OMB Challenge sounds a bit werid though .(Basically..it is a race where you need to run 10KM and climb 30 STOREYS !) Although i used quite a while to complete the run but the Main point is i have completed it by jogging consecutively for 10km and CLIMBED (Actually walking) 30 stories !!I did fine for the run but as for the climb ,i kinda of ran out of breath .as the stariways was quite stuffy and small .. I am proud to announce my new achievement as i only tried to complete 8km training run before . This race is a test of not only physical fitness but also drilled on everyone's determination to complete the race.
I felt like giving up the race when i was climbing up the Stairs as it was tremendously exhausted. But managed to keep going until the finishing point.There was one uncle who was completing the race with me ,encouraged me to keep on going and we cross the finishing point together .(KIND OF FATHER AND SOn encouragement ) LAst but not least special thanks to the uncle too!!!!
FINISHER MEDAL WITH A BIG SMILE
After completing the race,me and my friends-senior(SHi nan , jia jun , jiafan ,Ben Peng , Kaywee,Jeffrey went to J8 to have our lunch.. I had my virgin PEPPER LUNCH at J8 foodcourt .. The food was appetizing and delicious also with reasonable prices. Worth trying again :DD A tring yet fun sunday morning ..went back have a nap and started my last min revision for Ct1 ..
Ending this entry with a quote:
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
