Coming clean with my results...

Well, I do not know what feeling I am feeling now. My heart feels blank and empty. However, I am not dead yet okay. My marks were expected or perhaps... unexpected.

My results:

Eng: 26/30 (Booklet A)
56/65 (Booklet B)
-------
82/95 (Total)
_____
Oral: 27^/30

Okay I will talk about one subject by one subject. English. Well, during SA1, i do not think I scored that well, perhaps 73 or 74. Okay, I was dejected. I have always wanted to get 80 and above, upon 95. Now I did. I feel so proud, and I top the class just for Paper 2. I just feel like telling the world about it. Now I understand why people who scored very high are always very proud. However, we still have other English components. I feel anxious, worried. MC said that we did not really score well in compo.
I look at the English Top 10 chart at the board behind; I thought to myself, I want to be in the top 10. If others can do it, why can't I? I want my name and marks to be printed on it, with MC writing a simple word "congrats" beside my marks. I want that to happen and I must make it happen. HOWEVER, being in the Overall Top 10 chart would be the best! ~Clap clap~

Math: 16/20 (Booklet A)
59/80 (Booklet B and C)
------
75/100 (Total)

I forgot the individual marks for B and C. He he. Okay, when I first look at my paper I was like walao. How can this be?! I have been practising math almost everyday. Do finish, mark, go through, do finish, mark, go through...This happens almost every day. However, looking at a better side, I did improve and got an A. But it could be better, of course. BT got first for math. ~Clap clap~

Someone behind me was damn sad and she...~sniff sniff~ . Okay actually to tell the truth. I got lower than what she got during SA1. My hopes were all shattered at that time. I felt like crying, I felt like shouting until I lose my voice. The feeling is so so so horrible. I can understand how she feels. Now, having 75 is also not something to be proud of. I was expecting 85^. Candy won me again. Why can't she lose to me in math for once? Just once... ROAR!!! Never mind, I will beat you, Candy Teo. Just you wait...

Chi: 46/50 (Booklet A)
36/40 (Booklet B)
-------
82/90 (Total)

Okay, I thought I could do better in MT. It failed me...Okay, cut that crap. If I got 50 for Booklet A, everything will be perfect...ah!!! There goes my A*...I cannot really remember marks of my other components. SA1, I got 91/100. I was overjoyed! But now, no more A *!! Boo hoo hoo! Okay, I admit I did not study very hard for Chi. Some words forgot how to read and forgot the meaning. He he. (Don’t let Mr. Teo see this post) . Priscilla, YOU MUST BUCK UP!!! Okay, got that message.

Sci: ??

I am absolutely worried for my Science. I do not wish that history would repeat itself. During SA1, my marks were okay but Math pull the whole thing down. I don't wish that my Science will pull everything down. So far, not very good, I got 7 to 8 mistakes already, 2 marks each...14 to16 marks going down the drain. Plop plop plop. Bye bye marks. Now my only hope is to get at least a 30/40 for Science Booklet B.

Overall- How I rate myself?

So far so good for everything, hope that it also applies for Science. I did my best so I hope that I would not have regrets. However, can anyone teach me a more efficient way for studying Math? In addition, Science?


And last thing, BT,K, WK, I accept your apology. Let’s bury the hatchet. No point hating you forever... It only affects me, I, and myself. However, there is a last knot in my heart...

Can you understand how I feel...

Tomorrow is PSLE MT oral so my friend and I were practicing oral. Everything was going perfectly fine. More people started to join in our group. ( around 1 or 2 people) But they left earlier so we were left with two people again.

After quite a while, I realized that I held on to one of their water bottle. I rushed all the way down to return her the water bottle. After I went up, I realized that my bag was on the floor, (I thought this was normal as they needed the chair) I returned to my place then I happened to turn around and saw B whispering something to W. W was clinging on to my bag. I smell a rat. Something fishy was going on.

Then W ran out of the classroom with my bag. B was blocking my way, refusing to let me through. Then I threatened to throw their book but they managed to get it back, but my hand was hit against the wall. It hurts. Then K came, B asked him to block me and he did. After a while, I managed to get through. I do not know where my bag is, and then B and K blocked me again.

W wanted to return me my bag but B took my bag away again. I gave chase but I was already really, really exhausted. I caught up with him and grabbed his bag, but he swing around and once again, it hit my hand again.

I chase him up to the sixth storey. He places my bag near the janitor's place. Then B blocked me. K helped too. Thinking of no other ways, I took the broom and wanted to shove them away. Nevertheless, being the 'kaypoh' one, K protected B from me.

Somehow, I managed to get through again. I took my bag and wanted to get away. B shoved the broom at me and wanted to shove it at my face. I felt so insulted!!! I took my things that was in my class and wanted to leave.

W asked if I was ok. If you were the one being bullied, will you feel ok? WILL YOU!?!?
I left in a huff and promised that I will hate them forever. And I really will. With all the time that was wasted, I could have revised things that were more important. I was seething with anger.

What have I done wrong to deserve this insult? I have thought through repeatedly. From the start of the whole study group until the time when I come up from returning the bottle, I talk to them a little bit only. With words that are not insulting and hurting. Unless they can tell me a valid reason, I really am confused and angry why I am being treated like that. Is it for fun or is it for entertainment?

In any case, I typed this in anger, sadness, and hatred. I will never forgive them. Call me cold-blooded or whatever but can you empathize with me and put yourself in my shoes...

the last chance

Today is the last time we are helping the 6H pupils.( or maybe that's what I think) I don't know, but I hope that I will 'my buddy' will pass with flying colours.

My partner and I spent around 25 mins doing the reading. Then, 25mins for picture, and we have around 10mins for conversation. We do not really have sufficient time.(or we did not really organise how we want everything to be done)

It was rather boring but I try my best. My partner was yawning( few times already!!) My buddy's volume is really x100 soft.We have to emphasize that he needs to speak louder.

My partner and I wanted to give my buddy some notes which can help him with his oral picture. I ask my partner to give it to him. But she said, :"My post stick is too big, I don't want to waste it."

Does using one post stick really hurt that much? If that one post stick( with notes on it) can help my buddy, why not help him? This is really, really stingy.

When MC says time's up, she rushes away almost immediately. What kind of attitude is that? I bother to write more notes that perhaps can help him earn few more marks. But what about her, her nonchalant attitude. (or bochap attitude).

She just brings some oral papers. No file, just those few pieces of papers. Fine. She yawns. Fine.She goes off first. Fine.she don't care about the buddy.... Am I suppose to tolerate everything? She is like going there for entertainment, going for show.

If you are the one siting beside her, will you be disgusted, will you be angry, will you feel irritated?

Can you understand how I feel...



All facts are not exaggerated. All facts are true.

Oral speech (swimming pool)

Picture 1

This picture depicts a scene at a swimming pool. The swimming pool is a good place where people can exercise and have some fun. It may be a weekend or public holiday as there are quite a number of people.

Scenario 1: Wrong and consequence

There are two boys playing with a beach ball. They seem to have a whale of a time as there are wide grins on their faces. They may not be good swimmers as they are wearing a float each. In my opinion, they should play at a shallower pool as there are also other swimmers swimming there. The ball may hit other swimmers and make them feel irritated and angry.

Scenario2: Normal

There is a man swimming towards the end of the pool. He seems to have great difficulty trying to the end of the pool; probably the man is very tired already. He should persist on and finish his swim.

There is a woman with long hair swimming behind the man. She looks like a regular swimmer with good stamina. She is swimming gracefully with a calm and relaxed look on her face.

Scenario 3: Wrong and consequence

There is a little girl running on the side of the swimming pool. She accidentally knocks the boy in swimming trucks. The boy is about to fall into the pool. The lady behind, may be the boy’s mother, she is running frantically towards his son, trying to save him before he plunge into the pool.

The girl looks very nonchalant. In my opinion, the girl should not run in swimming pool as the floor is very wet and slippery and she may fall and injure herself. She should observe the rules set in the swimming pool, if not her parents should educate her.

Conclusion

Going for a swim can help to relieve stress. Swimming can also be very fun but most importantly, safety comes first.
