><))o> the big P have offically started
#The big P i am referring to is the "Prelims"....yep...today was biology paper 1 and 2. Paper 1 consists of 40 MCQs which i found reasonably ok (fairly simple i guess)...it was way too much time to give 1 hour 15 min for the paper...i think within 45 mins i finished (ok...i'm not boosting really...now tell me, how many of you finished within that amount of time? See. Almost all of you!) ...i felt like sleeping because my head really felt heavy (damn the flu!) but i saw Mr Ong standing near me and i decided against it. I don't want to look like a primary school kid who needs like 12 hours of sleep per day...worse still, i might just become the next target of Mr Ong's criticism!
So instead of going to Zzzz land, i decided to check through my paper thoroughly and boy, that probably saved me from losing a few more unnecessary marks...really hope i could do well for MCQ because i totally flop at paper 2. It isin't because the questions are tough...its more like i couldn't put my thoughts into words (a sign that i lack practice!)...and unfortunately, i didn't have enough time to finish the paper (this time they gave too little time)...i wonder if the biology department did their math correctly...or maybe they aren't very good at counting...or at least Mr Ong isin't (*evil laughs*)....okok i know....stop blaming the whole world except myself. I know...i'm lazy...didn't practice...so for As, i must practice!
#Oh oh...i think i am really suay today....i have to sit beside a slacker (or so i assume...she must be a slacker lah...i'm quite sure...)....during paper 1, she sat like a soldier, resting the ankle of her right leg on the lap of her left leg and kept shaking it....she is really distracting me....and she looked like she couldn't be bothered to do the paper....what the....! And if this isin't bad enough, guess what she did during paper 2?
SHE TOOK OFF HER SHOES!!! Yeah...you saw it right. She took off her shoes...and she didn't even wear socks! Can you believe it?!?! No socks....no shoes...just her
bare, naked legs! I think i nearly fainted....did i smell some weird odour?I don't know...even if i didn't, my mind must have imagined it! Gawd....what luck man....she even had time to take off her shoes...doesn't that show that she is a slacker? I'm kinda sure that she didn't know how to do the questions and therefore suddenly found herself having to kill 2 hours of time. And of all things, she had to choose to take off her shoes to kill time...oh yucks! I was disgusted over and over again...i'm so relief when the paper finally ended...The thought of having to sit beside her for Biology paper 3 is just traumatizing. I suddenly wished that she will come prepared...then again...fat hope...i think she's a total slacker! Well then...good luck to me!
#After the exam, i went to Chong Pang and met up with my mum for dinner. After dinner, my mum suggested that we sit at the void deck and enjoy one of nature's greatest phenomenon -
birds returning to their nest! Ok... if you think that i am saying just a few pathetic birds flying back to their treehouses then you are wrong! It is like probably a million birds, appearing in large groups each time, flying back to their homes within a period of an hour (from 6pm to 7pm). The scene is just amazing...perhapes even better than those you see at Sungei Buloh.
These unusual number of birds residing at Chong Pang have caught the attention of the media in the light of the bird flu outbreak. It seems that the authorities are comtemplating to cut these trees so that hopefully that will disperse the bird and decrease the chances of these birds catching the bird flu together (mass infection i should say). What bullshit is this? It is as good as saying, if someone who live in blk XXX is suspected of having SARS (or any other transmissable diseases), blk XXX should be demolished. Crap isin't it? Why should we destroy something so beautiful? And as if it isin't bad enough that people call Singapore the concrete jungle! And it is not as if these cute birds catch the bird flu...its chickens ok? Chickens don't go flying around in the city! Infact chickens are too heavy to fly...so what's the link that these birds will catch the flu? Through the soil? Nonsense!
People can be so cruel sometimes....we invade, we conquer and we subdue (doesn't it just sound like the Japanese soldiers during WW2?)...you know...we always go like "aiyo...so cruel...how could they do such things" when we ourselves are stepping on bugs or pushing for the trees to be cut. We aren't better. Admit it. Humans are a bunch of senseless idiot. Yes we are. Admit it. And those Chechen rebels...nothing better to do issit? Go and hold the poor children hostages for what? If they are so sicked of this world, then just go to hell lah. Or maybe hell won't even accept them...they will be sent to somewhere worse! And i damn well hope those that have died will never rest in peace. May them will always be guilt-ridden even in a place worse than hell. Amen.
#We humans are constantly trying to protect ourselves from this very world that we are living it. The more we try to keep ourselves from harm, to uphold our dignity, the more we are destroying this world that we are living in. Nature has given us so much. But what have we gave in return? When the world comes to an end, we have only ourselves to blame.
