Today was an interesting day.
English in the afternoon (Section II, Paper 1 level test) was shifted to curriculum time. Because of CHINESE. zzzzzzz
test was easy. I hope i amplified enough.
Recess was plain and boring, as all wednesdays recess do now, and i tried to play piano in the hall. tone sucked =( but was way better than the one in the canteen. Must have been made in China. The one in the cantten, i mean.
Council Investiture.
Songs.
Boring.
I may as well have been in the auditorium, listening to the DSA talk.
Chinese 'Supplementary'.
marcus was busy talking to his friends. mdm. fong threw his bag down the stairs in the audi to make him go down. He expressed his contempt for fong through his liberal use of hokkien (i understood) then i think he went out, then shouted "mdm fong hen huai!"
everybody in the audi was laughing. i think she paiseh. she went back to her laptop and stared into the screen.
WAH! the kranji paper was so damn difficult lah. There was also 'own words' question. How the hell was i supposed to answer those questions? in chinese? i might as well take hindi with Yash. No big difference. Still a zero. the paper had more or less inference questions, and the second compre used stylistic writing. to the extent that i found LOADS of sentence fragments. Just like this. And this. And this.
so the paper was screwed. anw it's only a test so i don't care. as long as the 'o' level paper is easier than that, i'd be safe.
Piano Lesson.
late as usual. Played ravel sonatine. First movement was nice. second was okay. third movement was very like my previous DipAB exam's modern piece, bartok's something dances. (Someting as in i forgot the name, i think it's hungarian) I didn't like it at all. maybe practice will prove me wrong. i hope.
EH! my e math combined marks is 69.8. and it's B3. what the heck?!
and i got 17th in class. a fine effort, but i'll have to take it from there and move nowhere but up.
