What's your name? After half a year? (Tuesday, August 18, 2009)
Reflections are healthy. Today was just boring. LA was the reading and interpretation of Sheltered Garden and The Armadillo, somewhere in the middle of these two choral readings, Mrs Heng got pissed. History did not show The Return of the History Papers, Mr Mackintosh hasn’t finished marking :( earliest on Friday but there’s no History on Friday. Anyway, History was boring for once, except for all the general knowledge parts. I DON’T WANT BORING HISTORY. Math was okay and understandable, good. Malay was nothing special, just about Ramadan, telephone numbers and whatnot. Chinese! Lilaoshi tried to, what, keep us in suspense, wanted to talk about the debate with 2/3 when the Chinese papers WERE RIGHT ON THE TABLE and everybody’s eyes just kept diverting to that stack of paper. After the debate practice, she went on to return us a long overdue compo. And then, she declares today’s lesson to be dedicated to practice for the debate session later. But thank god she decides to let us take a look at the paper halfway. Anyway, marks were nothing to be happy about; quite low but honestly, I aimed to pass 60% and I did, so whatever, whoo. Since Lilaoshi also said everybody didn’t do very well for this paper anyway. 2/6 got amazed and awed by the miracles tracing paper can perform in Art, and spent the rest of the time tracing out naked women. Ugh, my MSG is already 2 and we've only gotten 3 papers back. 2 A1, 1 B4. Tomorrow is 讨分 mode, out in full force. 0.5 mark to a another grade, although Lilaoshi is a strict marker. I stayed back for the Chinese debate session with 2/3. Oh well, managed to complete until Tier B of IN1 before it started and during the break. The debate was very fast. Not in terms of duration but content. The words just spill out of their mouths and they speak on and on and people like me just go “Huh what did they say?” You know I can’t process Chinese characters/words/sounds in my mind fast enough. The Chinese characters were like bullets shooting everywhere, lightning-fast and lethal. And I am effectively bullet-proof. |
