had the first Physics S paper training on thurs, and it was quite bad, especially the last question that he went through - about the estimaton of thickness of the flat, spherical earth. He kept 'slicing' the crust into increasingly thinner slices, and i started laughing uncontrollably... many others did too. Don't know why also...But anyway, i think physics S is quite hard.
But I don't know what else to take. Not considering Maths S because I don't have the 'stamina' to sit through long questions... my mind tends to wander off after a while... and I know i cannot compete with the F maths people...

Anyway, on friday, there was mock Napfa. standing broad jump is my nemesis. enough said...

At the end of the day, we watched Farenheit 9/11. The film was very disturbing, as all the evidence in it seemed to point to 9/11 being part of a big money-spinning conspiracy...

'interesting' maths

Thursday, January 20, 2005

one week of school has passed, once again. I am sure many would agree that Maths lectures had been the "highlight" of the week:D Not that I enjoy her "here in this case"s, but I find the things people do to empahsise this fact amusing.
Like during one of the lectures, there were some people who pasted "IN THIS CASE" on the wall of the LT. And as if that was not enough, they pasted a tally sheet beneath the banner. That was the last straw, and most people started laughing uncontrollably. I was guilty of laughing too. sigh... Apparently, the lecturer did not realise what the laughter was about (but my instincts tell me she knew what was going on, and choose to ignore it). Instead, she 'mistakingly' thought it was due to the santa claus hat soemone was wearing.
Anyway, during the next lecture, the issue sort of died off.. until this "brave" soul from some class asked a question, in which he injected "in this case"s. making his point... obviously. She then trademarked her "In this case". And I think she is quite proud of her trademark too.. no wonder she does not want to make an effort to change...

new year, new start, new campus

hello!

It has been a while since i updated this blog. Been rushing all my holiday homework, which, till date, have not been completed. haha.. whatever.. anyway, i guess the tutors will not be going through these till much later in the year:D
One week of school has passed, and it was like just a blink of an eye. I guess life in J2 is just more fast paced. I can't imagine how hectic it will be when s paper lectures and CCAs start...
But for now, I am loving the new RJ campus! although some people feel theold campus was more homely...but i like the new campus better... It is so cool! Spanking new, well equipped, sprawling, nice LTs and what not. Best still, we get a home room. The classrooms are bright and airy, more conducive for learning, as compared to the dull, dusty, dirty and old classrooms down at Mount Sinai. That's all for now...
