I'm sorry i'm sorry i know i've been long overdue but common test was a gg lah can't help it! Last common test in RI i really wanted to do well so was mugging like a ming loong for the better part of the month. Ok i'll a quick run down of all the subjects and then go into some other interesting things.

Social Studies:
I think i answered the question pretty well, good foundation and framework but didn't have enough time to finish up the last question that well, i couldn't go into details for active citizenry but think should still do decently well.

English:
The question was really wonderful for me, "Discuss the advancement of science and technology and some of the controversies surrounding them." Because just a few days before the paper i was reading through a lot of GPs and a lot of scientific case studies courtesy of Dr.Lee, Mr. Low and my dad. Read about active and passive euthanasia, cloning, patient's rights vs. doctor's rights, and put all these in, giving some examples like with the new scientific breakthroughs in surgery, many require blood transfusions, but certain religions do not allow believers to have them, so if a doctor knows that a patient is going to die if he does not have a blood transfusion, yet the patient strongly stated before the operation that he would rather die than have it, what is the doctor to do. etc. And for technology i focused on the development of military technology and that technology was actually forcing more and more less developed countries into poverty or terrorism.

Chem:
Urgh, the gg paper. I think out of all the papers in the entire exam this is the one i'll do the worst in. I recognize that my chem foundation and standard is really really bad, and to do a doctor in the future, chem is even more important than bio, so i'm going to work much harder on this.

Maths:
I was actually quite happy with myself this paper, i mean, after the test it was the first time in a whole year that i actually came out after comparing answers thinking that i could still get 80%, i'm really proud of myself for working so hard and proving that i can do it, and even if my results aren't that good for maths, i'll still be proud of myself, because i did every single practice paper that was given, all the supplementary exercises, the revision worksheets, redid the tests and even all the practice questions behind the assignments. Got a few mental blocks here and there during the test and i kena fooled by the sneaky last question "How much did it travel in the 2nd second" i thought it said "in 2 seconds." Darn, 5 marks gone for that. But all in all i hope i can do well for this, because i promised myself i would do it, and so far i haven't broken any promises to myself in life yet.

Biology:
Frankly i was very disappointed for Biology. The questions were really quite common sense rather than studying and i felt that a lot of us who studied really hard for this subject felt a bit shortchanged. Ok saying this i better not come back with like 60% for the paper or i'm seriously a jackpot lah :P

Physics:
Err...rather ok...think can score 80% and above. But most importantly. MY LAST PHYSICS PAPER OF MY LIFE WAHAHAHAHAHHAH!!!!!!

History:
I think this was the best paper i ever wrote in my life, i hope the GEP teachers aren't very strict with handwriting though cos' i was spamming so much that it really got quite illegible, and when i compared my first sheet to my last at the end i was really amazed to see how much handwriting can deteriorate in such a short span of time lol!

Ok now interesting things that happened let's see hmmm hmmm hmmm... Ok first and foremost, I GOT TO CARRY MRS. NARDAN'S NEW BABY BOY JULIAN LUKE NARDAN!!!!!! He was seriously so amazingly cute, the first baby i've seen up close for almost a year since joel got all grown up. When we first crowded around to see her carrying the baby when she came to school i was a bit hesitant to ask because i know that it's really hard for a mom to trust her little baby to a seemingly rough and clumsy sec 4 boy, and if i were her i might not have handed him over, but thankfully she did YES!!!!:D And i got to carry the little tyke for about 5 minutes before we saw our chinese teacher walking towards class and i had to hand him back. I'd gladly have carried him for the rest of the day, but unfortunately, it wasn't to be :( But if it's God's will i'll see the little guy again, and maybe can carry him more heheheheh!

Second interesting fact. The guys (Paul, Kenneth Loo(Dog), Zhang Rui(China), Alvin Nat(Indon), and Alex(Mugger), came over to my place yesterday for post CT celebrations. Actually not quite...Zhangrui came at 2, Alex at 5, and the rest at 8 -.-" cos' the faggots were either playing or organizing inter class soccer. Anyway when we finally got here we had quite a hearty dinner, compliments to mom as usual, her cooking never fails to amaze me and satisfy my tastebuds thoroughly. Then we played a few games of tai ti and then mugger and paul had to go back to boarding, and zhang khan left soon after cos' he's a momma's boy :p And when we were about to go to sleep, Alvin Nat kept complaining about a baluku on his head caused by Bowen so i got him some Aloe Vera to rub on his head and he stood in the toilet rubbing it on for about ten minutes, it would've been quite funny if we weren't so tired heheh. Oh, and Alex and Alvin were very interested in a rather interesting book that i got for my birthday. Yes yes for those of you who know what it is then you can go laugh at them :p

THEN when we woke up this morning, Alvin told us that he had only been under the thin pink cotton blanket that i provided him as an extra layer all night...when he was lying on top of my comforter(a sort of thick quilt blanket) all night...seriously...that moron. And he was obviously freezing his ass off. Come on lah, one little pinko blankie obviously anyone would freeze to death right?! Lao eh.

Well, today i had matriculation, saw Hanlong dancing and singing and having a great time, this guy never fails to amaze me able to be so lighthearted and shameless and enjoy everything to it's max yet think so deeply, complex and solemnly when it comes to serious business. The captain, one year my senior, who i looked up to all throughout my RI life, will definitely always hold my respect, and i really do look forward to working with him again in RJ. But soon after we finished our talk and had a bit of time to tour, the whole place kena spammed by RGS so we beat a hasty retreat back to the comforts of all boys only RI. I seriously don't know how i'm going to survive in RJC next year...i mean, i enjoy being in the company of girls, especially pretty ones, and i know that they adore me, ;) but there's a huge diff between seeing them occasionally and seeing them everyday man... Guys are straightforward, we got something to say, we say it, we got something to do, we do it, but girls man...girls are just strange. I don't think i'll ever understand them. I just hope i don't piss off too many next year...cos' it ain't gonna be as simple as RI now where we get into a fistfight or a roaring session but then the next day everything's fine again once it's been vented. Girls will be like...grudge-holding man...that's scary. More scary than a fist heading at 50km/h towards your face. More scary than Mrs. Chan when she's scolding people(seriously, how does such a tiny woman make you feel like you're even smaller than her?! Sheesh...). And even more scary than Mr. Lim...err...ok better not say later i kena splash water again :
Last thing to note, yay i got my national colours award today, one piece of good news :) Too bad cannot represent for SEA games, cos' i don't want to do the 2 years of NS lol. Ah well, i'll be your senior in Uni so there!

Alright, long enough to keep all you adoring fans from knocking at my door for about 24 hours right? Cos' i won't be home tomorrow, i'll be doing my first 10k in what, 2 months, and hitting town with the china after, so goodnight dudes!
