Trials - Chemistry PracticalPrivate Tuition for Li Shan O_o

Yesterday was Hari Merdeka...which juz came and went like any other day. Nothing much happened except all of us studied like hell (well...except Leong and Ashok of course – they didn’t take Bio) for Thursday when we have both Bio and Physics in the same day =(.

Trials - Chemistry Practical
Nothing to say bout it...juz that I almost did the whole experiment wrong before I realised it. You see, I filled the conical flasks with the same solution as the one we are supposed to add to it...thank god I saw my mistake early. If not half of this practical’s marks will be gone for nothing...

Private Tuition for Li Shan...apparently
Btw Li Shan came to our place some time after dinner to ask me something bout physics. Actually she was supposed to come yesterday (I got an early warning from Yih Seong) but somehow she couldn’t make it. Anyway at bout 9.30pm she came into our apartment, sat at our dining table cum conference table cum ping pong table cum Warcraft discussion table and juz studied her notes there. Which is rather fine with me coz at least I got some time to study for Bio papers tomorrow =P. She did ask me a couple of questions...one of which I couldn’t figure out. Hope she didn’t mind my poor tuition hehe...

(Rumours - Yih Seong told me it’s Ms Ho who told Li Shan that I’m good in Physics…which explains why she suddenly approach me for tuition...)

PS - Btw I’m NOT going after Li Shan despite what the others say. She’s all yours Paul...or Chow...or Afree...or anyone else she had in mind ;). This whole thing juz seems so messy haha =P. Wouldn't want to get myself involved hehe...

Trials - Thinking Skills and Pure MathMini-Feast in 121D

Trials - Thinking Skills and Pure Math
First paper in the morning was Pure Math paper 1 which was damn hard compared to all our past tests. Got stuck at like half of the questions before I managed to figure them out 5 minutes before time. Managed to finish it though so shouldn’t be a problem...or at least I pray it wouldn’t. After that was paper 6 with all the statistics crap which was rather easy me think =)

Then after our lunch break was Thinking Skills paper 2...where we have to crack our brain evaluating evidence and conclude whether someone is guilty or intentionally colliding with someone else or something like that in question 1. Question 2 was picking out conclusions, assumptions and reasons in a passage. Last question is the worst, where we have to evaluate an argument which I don’t even understand what it’s arguing in the first place =(. Think Mrs. Fam gonna screw us this time...(*shudder*..bad choice of words haha =P)

Mini Feast in 121D
Neway Jem’s parents came up today and brought him out for dinner. Then I lost my other dinner partner Ashok who went to friend’s house with Shan (for Merdeka countdown apparently hehe). Left me to eat dinner alone *sob sob* haha =P. But Jem made up for it by bringing home a barrel of KFC and lots of rambutan (which he whacked every single one of them by the next day haha) for all of us at home =). We even had to call Paul for help to finish those chicken...yea it’s THAT much ;). Thanx jem for the mini feast! =)

Intensive Warcraft trainingMiddle Earth 3rd Parliamentary Meeting (when conflicts arise..)

We are dead, i tell you...dead...
We're f*cked. Pardon the harsh language (i must have been hanging around Anne and Pat too much...) but that's what we are right now. Next Monday we got Math and Thinking Skills papers, next Thursday we got Bio and Physics papers and here we are studying Warcraft 3 so intensively ^^". For the last three consecutive days (today included) some of us have been going to cc without fail. I swear if there's gonna be a Warcraft test, we'll be most enthusiastic to study for it hehe =P. Btw let's just say this is our pre-'Massive Warcraft Battle' training. Here's a summary of our cc outings the past three days..

26 August 2004
Today got Chemistry papers so felt very drained...can't even look at anything with words on it anymore. Actually i told Paul there was a probability we may go cc coz there's only me, Yong Chen, Yih Seong and Pat at home with nothing to do (Jem and Ashok went to watch Collateral at Pyramid). But he told me to go at night coz he's playing futsal that evening. Then during our dinner Paul SMSed me asking me if we were really going (i forgot to ask the guys then...). Things lead to things and in the end me, Yih Seong, Jem, Leong, Ashok, Yong Chen, Paul, John and Tiong was fighting in Warcraft (no matter what we tried, Pat just won't go...wonder why). I teamed up with Ashok, Yih Seong and Leong vs the rest (Paul's apartmentmates were supposed to be 'new' to Warcraft). Turned out our team stood no chance at all against them and lost in both battles. Shouldn't have been so confident hehe..

27 August 2004
Paul came in the afternoon to recruit budaks to go cc again (apparently he's very happy bout the new 'mortar team' he found yesterday). Then after lunch, we all decided to have another go at Warcraft. This time it's me, Pat and Yong Chen against Ashok, Jem and Leong. Due to some 'tactical error' claimed by the other team, we won just after the second wave we sent =). Yih Seong didn't come this time (i think Denise had something to do with this haha =P). After the first game, Pat left and Paul took his place. Played a 'hero' kind of game with me, Paul and Yong Chen on one side. I say we do stand a chance against them but their creeps were just too strong =(

28 August 2004
The whole afternoon and evening, Pat and Yih Seong was calling us to go cc (Yih Seong and Leong got so desperate they played Warcraft on paper haha O_o). As a result, all of us couldn't even concentrate on our studies at all. Then when night came and all of us are prepared to go, Pat and Yih Seong back out. After some delaying in trying to get them to go, Yong Chen just got fed up and went home (not 121D...the other one). So in the end it's me, Jem, Ashok and Leong vs Paul, John and Tiong. They played really well i must say, seeing this is just John's fifth(?) time playing Warcraft. Anyway we played for 3 hours till midnight...and i seriously think this is the last time we ever gonna play before Massive Warcraft Battle. But i did enjoyed myself massively the past three days...although guilt sets in right after that hehe =P

Middle Earth 3rd Parliamentary Meeting
The 3rd Parliamentary Meeting was held at 2030 Hour (approx.). There was a reshuffle of the Cabinet as there was some restlessness among the old Cabinet and some positions of Ministers had been changed. The new Cabinet is as follows:-

Prime Minister Wong Yih Seong
Minister of Warcraft Jeremy Gerard Nunis
Minister of Defense Leong Jit Sen
Minister of Foreign Affairs Siaw Chye Hing
-(the PM commented that i got a lot of 'relations')
Minister of Work Ashok Kumar
Minister of Food and Beverage (F&B) Yee Yong Chen
Minister of Culture Patrick Ho
-(apparently he wasn't happy being PM's biatch haha =P)

Apparently, there was a conflict between Yih Seong and Yong Chen during the reshuffle. While changing Pat's post from PM's biatch to the current one, Yong Chen commented that Yih Seong does not need a biatch coz he already got one O_o. Then Yih Seong got really angry and told Yong Chen that there's some thing that just shouldn't be said. After that he just fell silent and ignored Yong Chen. Yong Chen tried to apologize but it seems that Yih Seong is too hurted. So Yong Chen being the person he is just ignore Yih Seong and leave him be since then. Hope things do not escalate any more...

Trials - Chemistry Paper 1 & 2

Trials - Chemistry Paper 1 & 2
Today was Chemistry papers. Overall, it's a liitle bit hard as i got stuck at a few questions. Couldn't really get to that part of my brain which stores all the Chemistry info i have studied the past 3 days. Sigh...but i don't think i would do badly this time...i hope.

Skipping classes trend starts again...
Well, it seems like every school i went, there'll be this habit of skipping school just before exams (ok, maybe not during primary school..). On Monday, attendance was normal but after that it just dwindle down to 7 yesterday(8 if you count Ashok who came for the first period only...he claimed he was 'sick' haha =P).

Actually, Pat already planned to skip school on Tuesday coz we didn't really do much so near to the exams...just exercises and a bit of Q&A. So on Tuesday morning, everyone except Pat and Yih Seong woke up as usual. However, seeing Pat and Yih Seong lying unconsciously on their beds, Yong Chen, Ashok and Jem decided not to go too. By that time i already bathed so i thought what the heck and just went to college myself. If i stayed at home it won't be very productive anyway.. (later i heard they ended up talking cock and bout Warcraft after Yih Seong joined them haha =P).

Strangely, on Wednesday Jem, Yong Chen and Ashok (for the first period at least..) decided to go to college...though Pat and Yih Seong were still in slumberland. Glad that they did though...our class on Wednesday consisted of me, Yong Chen, Jem, Paul, Chow, Afree, and Wy Keen (Paven, Ashok and Shan came for a while only). In the end we skipped the last two periods of Bio anyway hehe =P (Chow suggested we use the excuse 'we got no class to go').

PS - I put Yih Seong under 'mE FelLoW hAlf-dEaD blOGgIes =P' yesterday which resulted in him feeling insulted bout it haha. At least i got you to blog Yih Seong =P (btw i changed the group you are under now...is it better? haha)

My parents' Visit Day IIIThe Up and Coming Massive Warcraft Battle

My parent's Visit Day III (the last day...)
Don't feel well today...my neck hurts (i think i strained my neck...must be the damn hard pillow and bed...now i can't turn my head at all), my whole body feels weak (since Saturday's Bob Cup..), i got a slight fever this morning, and i'm drifting in and out of consciousness...

Anyway, despite all this, i had promised myself to start studying for the Chemistry this Thursday. You see, i wanted to start on Saturday but my parents decided to come up so in the end i couldn't get any revision done. The whole weekend was taken by my family...but i'm not saying i regret any second of it ;). And so i went according to my plan to study 2 hours in the library and 2 hours back home and managed to finish Chapter 4 by 11.30pm =D. Just as planned...hope i can finish the whole thing before Thursday...

Btw my parents brought me out for lunch again today. Came to pick me up for a late lunch at 4.30pm before going to my bro's place and back to JB. Actually, i'm kind of relieved they went home =P hehe. I got my independence back again =)

The up and coming Massive Warcraft Battle
Some time last week, Yih Seong suggested we hold a Massive Warcraft Battle right after our trials. The 14 players enlisted include me, Yih Seong, Pat, Jem, Yong Chen, Leong, Ashok, Paul, Chow, Afree, Wy Keen, Wen Hoi, Oscar and Zi Yang. We still haven't decided upon the kind of match we are going to battle (currently the suggestion is 3on3 but we still lack 1 player coz Sanmugam back out) so i will inform you all about the details once it has been confirmed. Hehe...the trials haven't even start yet and here we are, planning about the Massive Warcraft Battle =P. Nevertheless, i'm looking forward to it...just like everyone else involved ;)

PS - A Great Battle of Middle Earth is rumoured to be taking place too...Stay tune for more info =)

PS PS - Jem suggested a '121D Vs the rest of the world' match too. This is gonna be a really unfair match coz most of those in our class who 'knows' how to play live in 121D =P

My parents' Visit Day II

Before i start my blog, i want to say something first : Ouch..
Actually my heart hurts to see my parents spent almost RM1000 just these two days alone up here. Seems like we really know how to burn a hole in our parents' pocket hehe =P

My parents came with my lunch at 12.30pm today (i slept late last night =P). The other guys (Jem, Yong Chen, Leong and Ashok) ran all the way to Inferno (apparently Chuin Hau wanted to check it out...). Well, my family didn't do anything much...except my parents opened the fridge and thought 'Wow, there's a totally different ecosystem inside...' (our freezer section of the fridge was frozen to the point that there's only space for you to put one hand into it). And so armed with a mop and something else that was used as an ice-breaker (i didn't really notice...), my dad and mom cleaned up the fridge =). You all should thank them for that hehe...though we never used that part of the fridge before (which explains why it ended up like that in the first place ;) )

After that my family and I went to MidValley for some shopping. Bought a CD-ROM drive for my elder bro (his old one got some problem) which costs around RM500+ and my younger bro bought a few books to read at home (i didn't know he likes to read...hehe). Then they brought me to my bro's apartment near IMU and stayed there till round 7pm before going for dinner and some shopping in Carrefour, Sri Petaling. There, we visited a watch shop and that's where i bought my 239 bucks solar-powered Casio watch. Ouch...i never thought they'll spend so much just to buy me a watch. But i'm really grateful for them for this...i think i finally found my motivation to study hard hehe ;)

My parents' Visit Day IBattle of the Bands

My family came up from JB today =). My younger bro got a week of school holidays so my parents decided to come up to visit me and my elder bro. Really miss them after more than one month since the last holidays ^^. Took me out for dinner at 5.30pm then dropped me back at My Place at 7.00pm for the Battle of the Bands (BoB). Actually i was quite unhappy they took so long to drive me back (my elder bro was looking around for a CD-ROM drive and my younger bro was looking for a Starcraft book). I shouldn't have been so petty considering they came all the way up from JB to see me. But apparently during that time all i could think of was i'm going to be late for the BoB. Turned out when i reached 121D the rest were still inside...and wearing their home clothes some more. Anyway, we bathed, changed and went straight to the BoB which is held in the carpark of Taylor's College.

Battle of the Bands
Me, Jem, Ashok, Leong and Chuin Hau (he came all the way from Sunway to attend BoB) reached the gates at round 7.30pm (it was supposed to start at 7pm)...where John's Mistresses had already started their performance. Their performance was ok lar so i didn't think we missed anything nice hehe. After the performance, the bands that got into the finals (there's one from IMU says my elder bro) finally got to strut their stuff. The first band's performance was nice but after that there was a problem with the sound system for the other three consecutive bands. We ended up trying to figure out if the bands were singing a Japanese song or some alien language we never heard before (their voices are a bit inaudible and we couldn't make out the words). Yong Chen came during the second band and left during the third (he wasn't into this kind of thing says he...and so do Pat) while Yih Seong's with his parents till tomorrow. So during the 20 minutes break after the fourth band (Versatile) the guys decided to go for dinner (it was around 9pm and they haven't eaten yet). Then after that, we went home straight away before going down for some Bob Cup action till 12am. Sanmugam and Ashok went Pavan's house while Leong and his classmates went to Club 7. Actually i wanted to go back to the BoB to catch the last few bands but apparently nobody else was interested so i just gave up...On Monday (23 August), Anne said they repaired the sound system and the rest of the BoB went quite well. Sigh...shouldn't have missed it but oh well...

Btw while we were there, we met Ms Ho (she was wearing spaghetti strap sleeveless kind of shirt which looks like a coloured singlet and mini-skirt O_o haha) and her mentees. When we were walking back to My Place after dinner, we saw them again. This time, Li Shan called my name a few times (i thought it was Ms Ho as all of them were behind us so i just pretended i didn't hear =P). I was quite surprised it was Li Shan who called me (i had never even talked to her before...) and she looked quite tired (or beautiful, according to the other guys =P). Chatted for a while before she went back for the BoB while i joined the guys back to My Place. I know i'm being overly sensitive but i hope Ms Ho got nothing to do with this...(she tried to pair up Li Shan with Afree the other time...). And she looked drunk haha...must be the Ribena again =P
