Prowling; getting nearer to the prey. Risk.

I had my biology and chemistry practical examination on 18th and 28th respectively. Biology looks easy, because i was quite relaxed while doing the test. I had a neutral feeling about Chemistry practical, beacuse i neither felt bad nor good. Irony.

Next on the menu is General Papers. I tried to download some other college's papers from IVLE this morning, but i cannot even load the IVLE page. Wow, how about that? My schedule for today is to do 1 full GP paper (p1+p2) then maybe attempt some chemistry ten year series questions.

Risk. Time. It is like economics, opportunity cost: you spent some time here, u cannot spend it somewhere else. Eg. you spent time studying, you cannot spend that time on friends (or doing blog). But sometimes, when some friend is going away, like for 3 years? Then is it correct to sacrifice some of my study time to maybe like at least give her a call, or go out with her. Some of you out there might know who i am talking about, and why i bothered to type out this paragraph; i bothered to write about her. It is very hard to respond to someone who does not reciprocate much. Some friends ask me to give up, some ask me to just go for her. Haha, dilemma. So, i just keep things as it was, because there is no time for me to change, and no time to adapt to these new changes.

Power Saving Mode; sharpening weapons. Observations made

In the few days to come.. i might be a bit colder (not in the sense of lameness, oh PLEASE!! i expect my peers to be more interlectual), i might be ignoring people here and there. A pre-warning. The usual quietness before a raging storm. So, friends, u know me, support me. Thanks a lot peeps. I will be channeling most of my time in doing revision, as in my first entry, i will promise myself to do the upmost best. AGE QUOD AGIS.

OBSERVATIONS made: MJC year 1 students are in a panic state. To a hunter, a predator, of course it will make the best moment to launch an attack, to get a prey in such chaotic situation. But since we all are in the same profession, i guess it's only ethical to share the J2's personal experiences with them, so that they will get to survive. It is like, (in a lion's point of view) , one sees other pride's young lions, struggling to make their first hunts, but failed their first time, the seniors will try to help for this once, then they are on their own. For a predator from another pride, one will want to eliminate competition, but i cannot bear to see them trying out so many unorthodox methods, some are almost hilarious. So, i'll rather see them survive than get rid of them.

They are really very negative about their results. Some even started searching for alternatives before the results are out. Too pessimistic. I think they should wait a while longer, JUST for the correct moment, the moment. JUST. Can't they think like the 3 little pigs: after the 2nd house, will they think that their 3rd brother's house is also as weak? NO! They are very positive that they have someone who is in control. AND they went there. Arn't they safe, well, till now? We still hear about them nowadays, right? I say this because, the one in control (aka the one with the blue BMW) always comes up with something very promising after 1 or 2 rumours going around. (rumours are weak, promise are strong). AND it is just like a fairy tale, the promise always happens, till now.

Survival test in the wildeness; Spring & Pounce at the right time

When one has got a high goal, he will need to conserve energy and then strike at the correct moment. Just like a spring; when it is compressed to a shorter length, it then can spring out and reach a much higher height when released. Predators do that while hunting. eg. tigers, lions...... Predators... So we, as A's takers, must strategise, and paln our time wisely, use our energy on the correct activities.

That is the reason why i have not been adding entries for so many days.
And i might not be doing so in the near future.

7th October was my birthday. I've received gifts from Dean, Daniel and [AloysiusH+hailing+Andy+Amanda]. Thanks people. Then i had lunch with my pop at sakae bishan. We had a nice chat and discussed about my famil's future.

15th October was MJC farewell ceremony; JC2s last official day in college. I took lots of photographs. Wow, they are GREAT pictures man. Here are some.









Aloysius, the picture with both of us is in your CFcard. So i cannot put it up.

Today, i received my enlistment letter. Gues what? My reporting date is 14th dec beacuse of PTP, and i'm enlisted in to the Police Force. I'm not keen in joining the Police Force, because i was from NCC. Well just hope that i can accept the challenges ahead.



Romans 10:15 "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

Found a big tool

Actually it's not today that i found it. It was Sunday, when i was in church. Huang MuShi was the speaker then. He spoke to us about doing GOD's work, he taught us that if we do anything with the intention to glorify GOD's name, then we would be more motivated because the whole thing would mean more to us (or to me) as christians. He used passages from John 17, and i think that John17:4 is the most relevant and meaningful, it says,"i have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do", and also 17:18 which says,"as you sent me into the world, i have sent them into the world". Cool isn't it? We are studying because it is GOD's work.

I think i have accomplish the most today out of the 3 days since monday because i've done biology 2003nov MCQ, went through VJC math paper, went for GP consultation and done GP mock.

Found a small tool

Hey, i found this useful piece of information during one of my free period in school while surfing the web!
http://davidmlane.com/hyperstat/z_table.html
It is actually the normal distribution table, juz enter the values and it will give you the z-value, or the %significance, or the area.

Weekends are different from weekdays, i cannot really follow my plans. i did not do much revision today. The day seems very sloopy, it gave me a very letargic feel since the morning. It might be an excuse, or for real, but whatever the reason, there is a need to revise my plans. Maybe i will have a special plan for the weekends.

Hunting without equipments

Actually hunting without your tools can be quite fun, except the fun belongs to the prey instead, watching the pathetic you, trying all sorts of stupid ways to tackle it... Now, giving your best shot will actually sounds like giving your best shit; giving it any shot, hopefully we can hit it with that cranky shot.

Often students are like doctors. They walk into operating theatres; we walk into examination halls. Sometimes they walk out shaking their heads, we too walking out, shaking our heads; and they say," sorry, i've done my best, nothing could be done, it's too late". We also say," sorry, i've done my best, nothing could be done, it's too late". Both times, parents will come screaming, but both with different reasons.

My plan, now, more concretely, i should say: In one day, only allow myself 3 hours of play, 8 hours of sleep, at least 5 hours of work without the 2 hours of break in between. The rest of the time are lee ways, to make things end, something like wasted time... actually we cannot survive without this last portion of time. For emergencies, sometimes.

By the way, HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY!!
