Viva la stupidity… I know it will exist forever… But hey there’s always sports…

Ok… so VIVA (English as Second Language for South Australian Year 12 program Oral Test) is over… but there’s still my Oral Presentation… But thinking about it… I’m so frustrated over my teacher who obviously wants all of us to fail… She claims that she had given us specific instructions on how to carry out our VIVA and research but when she so-called repeated her instructions it was a whole new set… or rather some were not mentioned… We’re blamed for the vagueness of her message… sigh… I never actually knew how terrible my English was until this year… I always knew that my spelling was something to be desired but not my writing and speaking… This is just so sad… But anyway… on the bright side… I had a blast with my friends today… We went to play a game of badminton and squash… It was my 1st time at squash but I would say that I wasn’t terrible… But now I’m aching all over… I’m so unfit… only goes to show how long it’s been since I properly exercised… Ah well… Cheers…

Waaaaahhh REUNION…

The Science 1 class had a reunion party tonight… I was not in Science 1 for those of you who don’t know but I was invited anyway… all my good friends were in that class… really cool people… I was great to see them all again… especially Ash who I didn’t see for half a year… Had loads of fun except for the ghost story telling part… I can’t take them coz I have too vivid an imagination… Anyway… basically we just do what we do best talk about rubbish… gossip… latest news in school… seems that there have been a lot of scandals in school lately… What has the school become since I left… My gosh… Still miss school a lot… Especially the non-studying side of it… Well to all in Science 1 class of 2003 and everyone that I know… Cheers…

Jurassic Park??

This week has been an absolute disaster. Or so to speak. It’s been a really stressed week, packed with exams, work, assignments and news of oral… Ahhh… But it’s not like it hasn’t been like that before. Actually it’s been like that forever… But college is really a place where you have to fight to survive. It’s every man for himself and survival of the fittest. Which I am not. Anyway, it’s been raining quite heavily these past few days. The rain is actually quite consistent falling from about 2-3pm and stops at about 4-5pm. On Thursday, the rain was causing a jam in my usual route home so my ‘smart’ driver decided to take an alternative route. And wow… that route was like… flooded. I haven’t actually seen a real flood before, as in for my own eyes. Even though it was not very deep but let’s just say it’s up to the shins. So basically it wasn’t a real flood but it’s close enough. Anyway, it was too late to turn back so my driver just continued going. Frankly to say, I was quite tempted to open the car door and let the water in but that’s crazy. As we kept going, I saw some things that was really quite amusing. Even though it was flooding, there were actually people who were still outside in the food stalls with their pants rolled up, legs dipped in the water and enjoying the fried noodles or roti canai or whatever they were eating. On the other side, the water was blocked of by a small slope so it felt like I was passing through a small valley. But this valley had a lot of waste containers, rubbish and actually it looked more like a waste land. Though, there was something that made me feel like I was on the Jurassic Park river ride in Universal Studios or something. It was really amusing, really. And this is due to what? Bad drainage systems. Then again I think drainage systems are non-existence here. Such a pity. Those poor people who have to mop out their houses later and wash out the dirt. Thankfully my house is on a hill. Cheers ;P

One Down… A few more to go…

Well this was supposed to be posted up on erm… Wednesday… but did not have time… Anyway… it’s been a hectic half a week… Not only I but practically everyone in the SAM program was struggling to finish their English research assignment… Walking in the college library was just like walking in the streets of Tokyo, Japan… Anyway… I nearly did not manage to finish due to my lack of common sense to back up my files… I did my work in college… and happily went home to continue my work without saving the files into the hard drive first… when I shifted the floppy into the the other computer… I have two… the diskette became corrupted… ARGGGGHHHH… all my hard work… damn… Started crying for a moment… bugged my friends to help… but nothing worked… so I set off the start all over a again… a few weeks of hard work gone down the drain just like that… Of all the unfortunate things to happen… I could actually feel my A grade slip down… But in the end I actually managed to finish my project ahead of schedule… and even managed 3 hours of sleep… The next day I got up… I was totally pumped… Didn’t even feel sleepy or tired at all… But at the end of that day… the lack of sleep took it’s toll on me… and I collapsed on my bed at about 9… Well… I’m really glad that that’s over… But the worst is yet to come… the oral presentation… VIVA (oral)… CR2… blah blah blah… My gosh… I didn’t expect English to be such a difficult subject and I never knew my English was as bad as it is… Ah well… c’est la vie… Cheers…
