hello. i'm getting a little nostalgic here.haha.
after arnd 6mths of not studying, i realised i kinda missed studying.especially hist and econs.
it's prob bcos of the teachers i've had. I really miss mdm loh and miss nura.
i miss the econs lectures we had in LT4 with mdm loh where we madly scribble everything on the transparencies onto our notes.
i miss the thrill of scribbling everything legibly onto my notes w my different colour pens.
i miss dreading micro econs.
i miss looking forward to macro econs.i miss writing econs essays and case studies.
i miss consultations with mdm loh.
i miss the hist lectures and the lecture hall tables which i slowly nod off to sleep.
i miss mr ng's jokes about historical events and the way he describes things. he really has a way w words.
i miss reading all about united nations and the childish antics of US and SU.
i miss learning about SEA history and showing off to my dad that i know more about his country then he does.
i miss consultations with miss nura too..it was kinda fun.
i miss the excitement of getting back my econs and hist results after every exam.since they are both quite subjective, i cld never guess what kinda grades i would get.
i really have to thank miss nura for scraping off 3/4 of the essay i painstaking wrote the night before the consultation. it was definitely a wake up call for me.haha.
if she didn't do that, i wld probably have gotten a C/D for my history.
so, thank you miss nura!
i know i sound crazy.
yes, the 2years were hard,painful in fact.
probably the most difficult 2 years of my life.
the whole system is stressful, i always say that the MOE crammed 200years of history of many countries into 1+ years.
bt now, i think the reason it's so difficult was because i had to take math and chem.
LOH SIOW BOON.I WILL NEVER FORGET U.
and not in a good way ok..i might have done better if he didn't tell me "GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE!" when i requested to change my H1 chem to geog.
it's totally rude and uncalled for. he was part of the reason jc was so torturous for me.
i DETEST chemistry, and he made me do it when i'm more qualified than the pple from combined geog in sec sch.
i got a freakin' distinction for my pure geog and he didn't allow me to change my combi.
you can never imagine the anger and disappointment i felt at that moment.
i even told all my teachers-if i didn't get into a local uni cos i failed my H1, BLAME HIM.
all the teachers i complained to said that he might be stressed out cos he was just promoted to HOD that's why he blurted that out, but i think as a teacher, saying that to a student-a new student,is bloody irresponsible.
i shld know.i'm sorta a teacher myself.
as long as i live, i will never forget u for making my life miserable with stupid chemistry.
just so u know, i'm a history student. i have a pretty good memory, and i like to bear grudges.
i forgive, but i NEVER forget.
and right now, i semi-forgive you. cos anyhow, i still got into a pretty good course, no thanks to u though.
you know what, i really hope he reads this.so that he knows how one sentence could make such a huge impact on another person's life and hopefully this doesn't happen on another student.
urgh.talking about him spoils my mood.
and to my chem teachers, i'm sorry i put in minimal effort for chem.
i just can't stand the sight of it.
if i pulled down ur average and caused u ur bonuses, feel free to blame loh siow boon too.
but my 2years in pjc definitely had some things worth remembering.
maybe i will go back visit mdm loh and miss nura when i go back for my A lvl cert.
HELLO! I'M BLOGGING FROM MY VERY AWESOME HTC DIAMOND 2!
I wld post a pic of it bt im too lazy and i haven completely figured out all its functions yet.hee.
im having 1and a half hr break cos my christofori students went for hol.so i walked to mac,bought a cappucino and started surfing e web. life's so good right nw..Hahaha..
I LOVE WIFI!
I LOVE WHOEVER INVENTED WIFI AND E INTERNET!
Saw this on youtube..thought it was pretty funny.hahaha
the skits by the user smosh are all pretty entertaining actually.
KIDS THESE DAYS...
irritate me ttm.
I was at macdonalds' today..gek poh branch
unfortunately, gek poh is just 3mins away from pioneer primary.
and even more unfortunately, pioneer primary is my alma mater.
before i walked in, i could hear noises. LOUD noises coming from inside.
and when i walked in, the restaurant was in a state of pandemonium, i'm not exaggerating.
i swear. i was like - omg, is this where i studied at 7years ago??
let's do a little comparison:
1. 2002 - when i was in PPS, I had a stay home mom who kept a tight rein on me. i was NEVER allowed anywhere, even gekpoh which was 3mins away, with my friends.
2009 - they came in swarms, into gekpoh. rowdy and loud.real loud.
2. 2002 - I had a daily allowance of 80cents
2009 - They had at least $10 in their wallets. everyone of them.
seriously, even if u take inflation into account, i don't think that warrants 10X the amount in
2002. I mean, now even when i'm working, I might not have $10 in my wallet. (minus the fact that the ATM card exists)
3. 2002 - The only profanities i knew was "stupid", "crazy", " idiot". and i had to use them real discretely lest my mom finds out.
2009 - I constantly hear profanities along the lines of "F***","Bitch", "KN*" etc.
CONSTANTLY.
4. 2002 - I hardly know the concept of BGR.
2009 - I see this girl and this boy shamelessly flirting with one another.
5. 2002 - I only had my first handphone in pri 5. and it was nokia 8250. super obsolete technology.
2009 - wow. they have better phones than i do in 2009! all i have is a stupid W910I which never fails to die on me on the most impt moments, and these kids have touch screen phones.
see, another reason for me to hate things that resembles humans that are less than 15years of age.
And their conversation has become so "intellectually stimulating" that they could argue about which colour should be their favourite. i tried taking their age and maturity levels into account, and nope, i couldn't find a reason to find that acceptable.
If i ever have kids and they turn out like that..... NO, that's a horrible thought.
i will just have to tell my parents to depend on my sis for grandkids.
i'd rather keep dogs. at least they don't irritate me and they're entertaining.
and that reminds me.
whenever i tell someone i'll never have kids cos they irritate me, they'll be like "why don't u adopt?"
then i'll be like....... =.=
if i don't want kids around me, why would i bother adopting when i don't even want one of those from my genepool??!!
that's utter stupidity. and these pple irritate me too.
sorry, but you do. hahahahahha.
maybe Amelia in 2002 is just sheltered, geeky, uncool etc etc.
but i'm glad i'm that way, at least i know that i won't grow up to be like paris hilton.
(minus the fact that she's filthy rich and i'm not)
anyways, sakae sushi tomorrow w fionie and honey!
can't wait..i'm craving for jap food!!
p/s: sorry for the rambling. i just need to get this out of my system.heh.
