Lao Yu sheng!
That was us lao-ing yu sheng just a week before the release of o levels results. Living in the believe that such an auspicious act will bring us good luck and results, we made our imitation yu sheng using beehoon(if you can see) and a piece of fried fish to symbolise nian nian you yu. We lao-ed a total of 6 times so that we can score an l1r5 of 6. This method worked k, at least for most. I wasn't in the picture as i was the camera man. Anyway, i made this small picture in card like forms to give them as souvenir free. You know that time a councillor was promoting his polariod shots which costas 2 dollars or something for1.
Anyway, what a happy scene that was! I like it when our class can really sit together and enjoy ourselves.
I still can remember how i almost transfer school after first three months. I really really almost change for good reasons like distance and other things. But i did not go afterall that consideration and discussion. I wonder what would it be like now if really transferred. All thanks to my friends who kept convincing me to stay and i dont regret staying here. (but sometimes i really do wonder if it would be better to go). Everything has been fine and my class is getting better and i am liking it much more. Do you know I used to say i want to change class like 3 times a day during the first few months... Oh well. Everything's fixed and i wonder how will my 2 years be.
Have you every wondered what are you going to do after A levels?
I have always wanted to be a doctor, a paediatrician to be specific. But if i really get sick of studying, i will just stop there and be a GP. I heard that nus only accepts 200 plus students a year and that is like how pathetic. I believe rj itself already have more than that, not considering other schools! If my results are good, i think i will study there. However, i would really like to experience studying overseas. That would be how cool.. I want to go US or UK despite how much they might discriminate me. I want to experience the western culture and slang like them. I want to be a doctor there which is more appealing, considering the pay and environment. Singapore has far to many doctors and it just isn't as cool to be a doctor here. haha.. i dont know but i just see it this way.
Then again, i have to consider the price i have to pay. It is extremely expensive and my parents would probably have to sell my house to finance my education. Perhaps my mother can set up a shop in chinatown there! or she can be a part-time baby sitter! That would be how cool again. then she can slang like the ang mohs. like me!
Let me continue dreaming.
One of my secondary school friend(xinying larh), is going to UK to study a levels. How fortunate she is! Anyways, before that, do you know how much she has to pay. 6500 pounds a term. Ok, let me do the calculations for you. 6500 pounds=19300 sing dollars. Considering 3 terms a year, that would amount to 58500. To complete her eduacation which would take 2 years, she will have to pay a grand sum of $117000!!! And that's just a levels education. Now you must appreciate how fortunate you are to study in such a big clean new school, paying only like $30 a month. To think i was still complaining about how cold the school is.
Enough said. Today's irritating monday.
Physics mock spa was rather terrible you know. I was stupid to waste so much time adjusting the cotton thread. In fact, i set up the experiment pretty quickly but i just dont dare to raise my hand to call the teacher so i waited until a substantial number of people raised their hands, while i secretly see what the teachers check and adjust mine. By the end of the experiment, i only manage to draw a skimpy curve and a table. Under the comment on anomaly section, I wrote I have no anomaly(actually i have) , very sneakily cause time's up. At least i acknowledged..haha.
I dont know if i was sitting in the view of sight of B-jie today or what. She just kept calling me out of no reason during lesson. NO reason can. Keep using me as an example to crack those humourless jokes. Like,distilling me and get dont know what essence and asking people how would that smell like. Guess what was she trying to explain when she said that.
She was explaining the term essentially.
