Hello.

Today early morning went school...yup computing olympaid resume le...was expecting a scolding from the senior because none of us have been practising since dunno-how-long-ago, but haha he nvr scold.

A new guy joined us as the 6th member..an IP guy..he seems a formidable "enemy"..hmm...Cos NOI each school can only send in 5 members...so now with him in, means need to fight for that 5 places liaox..haix.

Spent the whole 3 hours sitting in the concourse solving weird mathematical induction questions (yup they are vv related to competitive programming).
Among the 5 of us (one sick nvr come), excluding the IP guy since he havent learn MI, one is a F maths student, another got 81 for maths promos, and the last is a GIC scholar with 3 As for promos.
I failed my maths, making me the worst out of the five there. Haix.

Anyway, today the new batch of IP students came for a "pre-orientation orientation", basically walked around and buying new uniform. The bunch of us at the corner were secretly laughing at the girls buying knee-length skirts and belts =pPp

After that went PP for lunch, before heading back for a OP rehearsal. Haix.

I thought maybe i should make my stand clear. [No, i'm not angry, just stating my stand]
No, I don't like having my face appearing on photos, because i think my face suck and it will destroy the otherwise nice looking photo. [Don't argue with me.]
I will only have a photo taken under forced circumstances, like class photo, group photo, passport or IC photo, or at special sessions like farewell or party or whatever, or if i go to jail and a photo of me needs to be taken and put into the newspapers.
Of course, I dont mind u all taking photos of me if u ask me beforehand. IF i say no, can you please don't insist?If i say yes, can don't take advantage of me and keep snapping?

Wah long post. Typed so much rubbish.

1) Complete InR
2) Complete an animation for that extra 5 mins of OP
3) Complete 2 more EOMs
4) Complete programming a vitural robot that can win something
5) Continue computing olympaid training
6) Maybe go for Thinkquest

知道有chiA和LEP的人读我的blog,小弟在此献丑,还请大家多多原谅!

已经几百年没用华文写张像样的文章了,现在再次提键盘打华文字,真有点不习惯,哈哈!那些四个字四个字的我都还给老师了,现在只会小学一年级的简单词字。

其实很久以前就有想用华文blog的念头了,只是当时华文字不能准确的显现出来.现在可以了,看到广峰的blog,手上又有学校的电脑,就试试看lor。

自从上了初院,能用华文的机会就少得可怜,和朋友老师也是以英语沟通,有时尝试用华语,说不到两句,不知不觉又回到英语去了.

每个人看到我手机和zen micro都用华文,听说我听华文歌,说我很cheena。

我可是新加坡人leh,english华文都No problem!

不是说以前在圣中没有用英语,只是当时很容易switch,现在比较难。或许是太习惯英文了吧!

想不到还有什么可以blog的,就在此搁笔(搁键盘)了。

用华文blog比较费时费力,我没这么多时间,所以我看我有时间有心情再用华文blog吧。

Hello.

You can see that a charity show is getting desperate when you see dangerous shows not long after the show started.

I thought the show isnt tt exciting anymore following the absence of Cao Qi Tai. Haha.

I liked Wei Lian's performance..the one where he sang and wrote chinese characters.Simple but touching.

Did i mention i got back my 16PF report recently?

16PF, for those who don't know, stands for 16 personality factors.
Yup its a personality test, but the more powderful type.
How powderful? About 150 questions to answer. Cost $50 somemore.
But is school pay not me haha.

I filled my name in the wrong place then end up calling me Mr Qing Wei throughout the report. Haha.

I got 9 (out of 10) for "investigative" leh, then they say i suitable to have job in maths, science, research, computer science.

Then why my maths and science still so shitty?

Then my business competencies all lower than average, means if i do business i sure fail de haha.

My leadership also all lower than average, though i got 7.8 for permissive leadership. Means i'm a lousy leader.

Haha my emotional stability only got 3. Means i'm a reactive person.

The report say i must "guard against the possibility that others may take advantage of me because of a tendency to be too accommodating in his relationships with others".

So...ahem AHEM.

Last but not least, our dear friend G** is going for his Singapore Physics Olympaid on tuesday. I may not blog tml, and he may be busy mugging tml, so i shall wish him

GOOD LUCK!

today.

May he thrash all the foreigners (singaporeans as well) and bring glory to AHS, to TJC, to Singapore.

Fellow Anglicans, Tjcians, Singaporeans, lets wish him good luck on his tagboard (my tagboard also can) so we can pressur, err i mean, encourage him =D

Hello.

My econs friend has shot me until i got nothing to say le. Haha fine i accept that.

Previous two nights i fell asleep before i could on the computer, so haha didnt blog.

Today early in the morning i went to sch to attend a panel discussion on university admission.

University fees cost a #^&%!*%(@! $21000+++ bucks a year! #*&%&*%@(!!!!!

Well, all 3 universities sound interesting enough, but i have not decided which uni to go to and what course to take.

Maybe i cant even get into a university.

Initially i wanted to blog a happy entry on tampines rovers fc winning the sleague. But alas, they had to lose last night's match against home united.

Nvm though, tampines still win liaox. The only way they cannot win the sleague champion is to lose next week's match, and second-placed SAFFC win their oppenent 28-0. Haha.

I heard from my frens 2 (shocking) things over the week.

First: For every A1 any sec4 student scored for prelims, AHS will give him/her $2.

Second: AHS's top sec4 student (i mean my batch, tt 4K china scholar) is also a top student at hwa chong.

Please help me verify.

(PS: This blog entry does not reflect how i feel now.)

I signed up for this wholivesnearyou thingy quite some time ago (meaning one year ago) after i read a newspaper report about 2 (local) teenagers who created it. I haven't gone there for a long time until a friend recently added me.

Then wah, i'm surprised to see the website change alot le leh. Now they got support from pac net, need hp number to verify account, can add friends etc etc. Its much more secure and advanced now, and its more happening le. Cool.

Hello.

Sorry, Monday was blogging halfway then teacher came, so had to stop.Yesterday was busy trying to get Written Report done, so no time to blog.

Yup, today was the offical deadline for the submission of the project work written report. Skipped almost every lesson the whole day and skipped lunch and spent half the day in the computer lab to get approval from the teacher and print 70+ pages of stuff out.

My ST is a computing teacher, thus my class got the advantage of using L25, a rarely-used computer lab to get the stuff printed out. The free access lab was packed with students and heard they had difficuly printing their WR out. Heh heh.

Anyway, to continue from where i left off, i was saying that i just accept whatever results i got. I personally thought i had improved...from "don't know how to do" to "do wrongly " haha. My papers had less empty pockets and more text le. just that i made too many mistakes.

AS for computing, my c++ problem solving section still ok; it was the theory section that pulled me all the way down. Perhaps i pay more attention to theory next time ba.

AIya nvm, there's always next year. Can de la can de la, i sure can make it de =D

(I wanted to put a song here to end this up nicely, but i couldnt find the lyrics. Will get it next time.)

Hmm, sometimes I wonder are humans getting too proud of themselves such that they need hurricanes and weird viruses to remind them that mother nature is still the king after all?

Perhaps humans should learn to be more humble and learn to care more about the environment. Haha.

Today news report that the company that produces the flu drug to counter the bird flu is going to let other companies produce the drug as well( err something like that i think)

That made me wonder why humans have to earn money from saving fellow humans? A flu virus is breaking out, and they are going, "Pay me money to buy my drug so that you can save yourself."
Why are humans so obsessed with money? Even when death is just right in front of them?

Hello...haha i'm using "school resources" now heh heh.

Yesterday and today were the two worst days in my seventeen years of my life.

Because i got the worst set of examination results in my seventeen years as a student.

On Monday i got back 3 papers in the first half of my day, Maths, Physics and Chemistry.

I got E for Maths, O for Physics and Chemistry.

In theory, i can get promoted, but that is if i can pass my GP. If i fail my GP, i have to get 3 Es, which i don't have.

And throughout the day i keep hearing people failing GP, including a class where 'everyone got 40plus' for GP.

So i was like a zombie for the whole day, cos i didnt think i will pass GP.

Then, when i got my GP at the last period of the day, i realised i passed! i got 50/100!

I got D for computing, one mark from the C grade =(

K la, now cannot ask for much...i can promote i happy liaox. Haha.

Well, i'm still upset i cant get any S papers i wished for, in fact i have to take 2 R papers....haix.

To be continued.......

Hello.

It rained the whole day today..rained so much that many parts in singapore were flooding. The traffic light in front of my house spoilt too.

It was a relatively quiet day for me. Besides a friend who called me to discuss about pw, i didnt really talk to anyone. The raining weather also contributed to my peaceful mood. Haha i quite like it. Maybe my world is getting too noisy and happening.

Sianx. Tomorrow will get back papers liaox. I feel like escaping. I'm not vexed over my results. I accept whatever i get. I'm just afraid that my teachers and parents will start rattling at me. Sometimes i can really go crazy listening to their nags.

I liked yesterday's straits times saturday special on the end of Earth. But i thought the reports only reported on the natural disasters and missed out on something more important: those human-slaying viruses and bacteria that are getting deadlier and more resistant to drugs.

Maybe my horrible results is another sign that the end of earth is coming. Haha.

Saturday, October 15, 2005

Today early in the morning went to ngee ann poly for the workshop...realised that me and my fren were the only jc pple there..the rest all ite and poly pple...even a team from ntu. Wah die liaox sure tio thrashed.

Rushed back to vjc after the workshop. Think i missed out quite alot of fun..cos significantly less people in the hot afternoon. But still caught up with 2 of my frens..long time never see them liaox.

I thought the crowd was ok, but many pple said this year less pple came compared to last year.

Anyway unique stuff we had for this year's open house include a giant windmill set up by the odac, though it didnt spin when the wind blew.

There was also a pile of sand on a canvas sheet in the field to simulate beach volleyball, but i thought it looked more like soil than sand haha.

Of course there was the 3 treehouses which were completed just in time for the open house. Those are permanent structures.

Otherwise, this year's open house looked suspiciously similar to last year's. Heh heh.

Now that the open house is over, its back to pw and....awaiting of promos results. Haix.

You know ah, it doesnt help when you know you suck at the exams and your friends around you are getting damn good results for the same subjects or even the same papers. It makes you look damn stupid.

I'm listening to songs from mayday's new album. Quite an inspiring album. I recommend all to listen to it.

Friday, October 14, 2005

Hello.

Thanks to my dear G** for his 6 tags and my junior as well. I'm still quite upset, and for now nothing is gonna change my point that i am a failure in life.

But, i will put that aside for now. =D

This past week has been a hectic week..coming to sch every single day from dawn to dusk (maybe slightly shorter). First 3 days had to rush a video for the yr2 farewell...and there was some pressure because icomp did a VERY impressive video for teachers' day and pushed people's expectations of us too high up.

The video was decent i guess, though cant expect much from a 3-day video haha.

Thurs went back sch for pw and s cube seminar. After sch it was back to icomp.

Today was farewell assembly. Cool man the farewell assembly was quite grand. Got games, got performances.

There was also singing by this new singer. Never heard of her before, but she just came up de la. She got a blog cum fan site can go see...at http://www.genie.sg

Didnt receive any negative feedback about the video. I guess its alright ba.

After tt went to eat ice cream. Haha nestle sponsered 2 trucks of ice creams for today's farewell and tomorrow's open house. Cool right? (pun intended) Each person has one leh! haha. I got to eat extra because some people not around. Haha.

Then it was back to icomp. We are setting up a booth for open house and doing some camera-hooked-to-plasma-screen thingy, quite alot of things to do.

In all i think our overly-done open house will be quite a fun thing tml. Too bad i will be missing it the whole morning. I will rush back in the afternoon i promise.

VJC is a fun place. Really. Its just the stress that i can't withstand.

Thursday, October 13, 2005

Seriously i think i am a failure in life.

Since primary school, i have tried to pick up many skills, but i never got to be good in anything. Here's a breakdown:

I took up badminton as my cca in pri 3. In the end i couldnt get into the school team and soon, i was forgotten and kicked out.

I learnt drawing at a nearby community centre in pri sch too, but after a year or 2 i had to stop because it clashes with remedial lessons on sat. Since then i hardly drew and now i cant draw a shit.

I played soccer during recesses in pri sch. After playing for about 3 plus, 4 years, i still couldnt pick up any decent skills and i remained a defender standing at the back of the field.

I even tried running. Signed up for relay for sports day in pri 5 or 6 i forgot..for got nothing.

When i went to secondary school i decided that i had enough of sports. I joined the computer club. Quite a wrong choice, because i learnt nothing inside.

Had my hands on basketball. Sucked at it.

Took up 3 sciences in sec3 under pressure. I thought too highly of myself, and ended up not doing well in any of the 3 sciences.

End of sec4, again i thought i very li hai, so picked vjc. WHat is happening now? I am suffering there.

In jc, i realised i can never handle 3 pure sciences, so i dropped biology for computing, thinking i may be better in it.

What happened? I failed computing. Yup. I failed the subject i had the most fun with, the subject i had the most confidence in, the subject i loved best, the subject i worried the least. I failed it.

[And that is not the only subject i failed.]

So now, all the hopes of S papers are gone; in fact i think i have to start preparing for R papers.

Besides getting my college subjects into a mess, my extra activities arent doing well too. I still cant solve all the simple programming problems, and the trainer and the teacher are questioning whether i can get any medal for my computing olympaid.

So since young i have failed everything that i tried. I don't know what other thing can i try.

Perhaps i should go and die.
I am just wasting earth's resources, wasting money on internet and hp bills, wasting people's time reading this stupid blog or replying my smses, wasting money on school fees, books, notes, food, water.
And I am depriving other people of a precious space in the wonderful college of victoria.

When one is down and out, even the computer also wants to make fun of him.

To hell with me.
I'm sooo happy today(i mean yesterday)!!!

Because a miracle happened!

U know, a couple of days ago i was complaining that i had a workshop to attend on sat and thus cant take part in open house? Then i said i still hope a miracle will happen?

Today i received an email saying that the workshop on sat will be from 9.30am to 12nn! Means i can still go back vj for open house!

Muahaha i so zhun..miracle happened on me leh! =D

Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Hello.

Haha i was just about to question the need for students to complain that exams questions are difficult when the news report of errors in the maths paper.

They actually apologised leh....i dun rmb them apologising when there was an error in our olvl biology paper...they didnt even say how they will handle it..only said they will treat every student fairly.

But still, i think there was no need to complain to the whole singapore that exams questions are hard la..as my fren just told me, its part of life!

If you buy it le subscribe to it le then tell me cannot use, u might as well dun buy, dun subscribe? Might as well ask me go die?

I'm back.

Yup, i finished my exams last friday. But i didnt blog till today cos partially i was lazy, and i dunwan distract those who still got exams (see ah, if i dun blog ah, u all wun waste ur time reading it ma).

This promos....its downright horrible. Didnt do well for subjects i was weak in, didnt do well for subjects tt i was strong in. Now i just hope i can keep my 4 subjs, and perhaps miracally get one s paper......

I have alot to blog..haha..cos alot happened during the promos week...i guess i will break them up so u (and i) wun be straining my eyes reading one long chunk of shit.

Friday after my promos, went with my class to orchard cineleisure...cineleisure was already filled with people from many jcs...with more busloads of victorians coming.

Ate food from a japanese-themed eatery the first time..haha..some chicken rice meal.
After tt went on to play an hour of lan and watch movie...ending the day with a walk down orchard road.

Spent the weekend slacking. Haha set up the Brother all-in-one printer tt i won at computron...then was playing with the scanner.
Haha i tried scanning a picture at 1200dpi x 1200dpi..then the computer hung. Haha.

I wun be slacking anymore this week. In fact i will be more busy. I am part of the team to create a video for the yr2 farewell, which is friday. Tt makes us less than a week to complete a "memorable" video.
Also coming sat is open house...so gotta prepare micromouse to wow those little kids =P

I was soooo looking forward to open house during the promos la, cos its such an exciting event and i thot i can have some fun after promos and before PW.
But alas, heaven had to play a joke on me...i have to participate in some competition then sat have to go ngee ann poly for a workshop. WHich means i cannot be part of open house!

I dread the feeling of being left out in some major school event. The whole world will be talking about how exciting how fun it is then i dun understand a thing.

Well i am still hoping some miracle will happen....like the workshop will be postponed or something. Haha.

It gets kind of scary when weird things start happening to your body that you nvr see before and you have no idea what it is, how it came about etc.
You want to cure it, yet you don't dare to go to the doctor for fear that you will be presented with some bad news like you have only 3 months left. Haix.

I hope i can create a new blog template soon. Haha i need one to reflect my err...maturity. =P
