hai, EOYs are coming, and it seems i have contracted the emo syndrome from most of the people around me, including Wai Choong, Mervyn, Shoun and others. and i say this is because EOYs seem to be the only thing on our minds these coming weeks.
i mean, how can we not think about it? 40% of the entire year cumulated in just 2 hours worth of testing. screw this up and your A+ will be reduced to some distant fantasy.
it's like something that's bad and you don't want it to ever happen to you, and yet, the other half of yourself longs for it to be over quickly, so you can be free...
for me, i've been equally mugging and playing. how can you play at this time, you might ask. well, it's just one of the ways i can take my mind off the content for a while. last thing i want is to blank out on the day itself. it's happened to me before, and it's not some pleasant experience i want to talk about. playing also gives the person the false sense of security, that he is prepared enough, that he can relax. call me delusional, but this false sense of well being is better than feeling no sense of well being at all.
geog and ss will be the usual subjects that i don't do too well in, for obvious reasons. despite that, i will try to mug and make sense of the meagre notes we have been given. wish me luck.
before EOYs is the time when friendships are tested. when you ask for help regarding work or some school related problem, the most logical person to ask, other than the teacher, would be your friends. for example, i'm not meaning to boast or anything, but recently i've been receiving a barrage of messages online asking me for help regarding some science questions/problems. according to one friend, i'm sort of "the most reliable science reference book". that does make me feel good that i'm able to help others out, but it makes me wonder about other, less positive things as well. a reference book is not something that you keep long with you, something that is just touch and go, something that you leave behind once it has satisfied your needs. this trait has appeared recently, with some old classmate of mine who hasn't spoken to me in 9 months suddenly popping up with some science question to ask me. should i answer him, i wonder? should i?
oh well, these are just my thoughts. on another note, if you have any queries regarding the sciences or maths, you could approach me to ask your questions, and i'll try my best to answer you. for those who are too love face to ask me, don't worry, i won't laugh at you, unless it's a REALLY POINTLESS, STUPID question. after all, helping each other out is what friends are for.
Till next post...
P.S I heard Wen Da wants to join band in RJC. i wonder what he'll play...
