All in All : 2012

Last year, I've left you with this. Apparently, none of the above was chosen. 

And....another year ends. It's indeed different, sometimes frightening on how the world operates....after so many years hiding in schools. The world is big, but never too much.

I'm a lazy person, so to be frank...I don't like spending my first day of the year reporting for National Service. =.='', but it's been a wonderful experience.

And some outings outside the camp. 

Then....came the tide of horror... 

chill....it's just SPM

Now...let me tell you what's scary: 

college

and presentations

and activities

and classmates who are so-freaking smart and competitive.

and some readings and research

 P/S: another record broken for sleeping only half an hour just to finish the assignment

and the lecturers

and having your face projected in front of the whole damn class!

All of 'em pretty much freaked me out. 

But still, there're some not-so-freaked-out-times:

Annual Dinner, CFAB/ICAEW

18 years old and still drinking ice lemon tea.

watching How I Met Your Mother S8 in class

plentiful of insights via conferences. 

seee? I told ya'....you don;t need a jacket to stand out from the rest. 

Trip to Penang with friends. 

Also, not forgetting secondary school friends:

Together with 2 school's smartest, teacher, and another 2 capable people

Sunway Pyramid

and, I'm sad to say....somehow, we grow to be more mature....or not....

KL Urban Trekking with Ruthresh, who is now at Kolej Matrikulasi Pahang

KL day trip

Sunway Pyramid

Kek Leong's birthday

Kah Yan's birthday

and of course, the guy from Australia, Dylan.

Thanks, Shu Weng for joining us.

and...hope to see Zhen Xiang and Jia Jie next year.

Finally some personal moments

SPM: Results Release Day

Owwww...shucckkkzzz....

Yes I did realize that 2011 was not a really great year. It turned out to be the opposite of what I anticipated for as I celebrated the birthday of 11/11/11.  And, I have to stop being so superstitious. Or, I have to change myself.

Right. My results. Well, on the surface it may sound awesome. But, the truth is that my grades were not pretty at all. 2A+, 4A, 3A- and 1B. That's how it went. I was expecting to get an A+ for my Bhs Melayu as it is my strongest subject, but I got an A- instead. *sighs with frustration* And, the weirdest thing is I got an A+ for my Physics, which I used to fail it. Maybe I do inherit part of my Dad's engineering genes.

 

That's Mr. Liew's (priceless) expression. 

 

This is Mr Tay K.L. PPN (principal) with his statistics.

Top Girl, Jeynn after getting Straight A+ sss. WOw!

 

And there you go... some great achievements.

At least, the good news is I didn't got kicked out from the CFAB program which requires a minimum of 5 distinctions with English and Maths included.

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.

SPM: day 10 : BC

Finally, the last subject~Chinese / Mandarin...whateva

As usual, Paper 2 was tough for me. I have a weird interpretation on words, I don't know why....
Let's forget it.

After Secondary School, there won't be anymore Chinese classes or exams. But, Chinese is what I am and Mandarin is what I speak (English, too) and yeah, other "clan languages" like Cantonese. So, I'm proud to be a Chinese. Everyday we are part of the Chinese community, therefore I won't be missing Chinese.

Learning one more language means having more opportunities, that's what I wrote about in my essay. May everything turn out well.

So...this is the last post on SPM. Actually, I lied. There's still a few more posts when the results out.

For almost 1 month the form 5 students have been enduring tough times with pens, books and knowledge, and for me,  not shaving throughout the exam month, it's time for me to celebrate freedom by shaving. (weird, eh!)

This is Winser Chuak reporting live from SMK SK on SPM Month. Peace out.



  Anything Bad is Good for You

Before : Study Hard Anthem.

Now:    Party Rock Anthem   

I'm thinking...I'm thinking...

I am Great

SPM: day 9 : BO

It was still okay...

The first time I'm writing about infertility and I dumped Long Jack and Viagra into the essay....this is terrible.
After that only I realized that there's such section in our syllabus and everything was kinda tooooo late.
The spotted questions came out, so I didn't die...or at least I didn't die in a pathetic way. That's something relieving

I'm still thinking 'bout my Chemistry paper...17 marks just gone like that....
God, save me...pleassseeee??

to the Bananas (people who are chinese but didn't take Mandarin as a SPM subject) and some people, plus not taking additional subjects, yup, that's their last paper.

Mandarin's next Wed (7/12/11), so I'm gonna take rest, too.

Here's some pictures that I've taken while I'm supposed to study.

Edward, I've killed a little bloody friend of yours.

Glad to have them gone...for now...

The Chemistry session was really awesome. At least I learned something. 

Yup. Calvin...and biology

It is supposed to be horizontal, but I'm too lazy to change it : 

GUESS if you do not know the answer.

The special one...I'm gonna leave this till SPM ends. 

       

When there 10 subjects ahead.....

When there are 3 subjects ahead

and the remaining 7 under the desk.

Hirameki...anybody?

Tea?

I know.....it's lame.....
