10/10/10

yay us today is 10/10/10. shall make a wish: i wish ms tan would bring candy to tues lecture =P

i recalled wad i did last year 09/09/09. shld still be playing maple at that time. aw~ actually i logged in 2 days ago and walked around FM. wad i saw was very random. the price of under the moon chair has the highest variance!! some stall sold for 20mil, 30mil, 40mil, 50mil, 80mil. so random la XD but then too bad i no money or else i go buy one for fun.

just finished the [unbelievably tedious] stats lecture worksheet. took me morning to abt now. kind of like 12hrs. fell asleep at 5pm and then got a weird dream. i was playing with warren at a playground XP haha random..

ok i cant actually rmb if i really did post all my prelim results but here it is:
Maths - [M]C =O
Chem - A =D
Phys - D =X
Geog - S =P
GP - U =(

ok somehow the GP mock [trial? practice? "fake"?] exam was like a total waste of time. i even almost fell asleep during the paper and woke up halfway through. the paper was actually last year's A lvl paper. cambridge must have a sibei big roulette they spin every year to get random themes for compre. last year was on work and leisure. while the passage was easy, the qn was bloody hard. only wrote 60+ words for summary and the AQ was badly done..

oh i took a picture of warren's stuff 2 days ago.. too lazy to plug in my phone and upload here. so will upload it next time =D

Math tells us the saddest love stories:

Of parallel lines who were never meant to meet. Of tangent lines, who were together once then parted forever. Of asymptotes, who could only get closer and closer, but never could be together. Of circles, who will always go in rounds and never end. Of angles, who were once together on a line, but were separated to certain degrees.

Wa Ytd ah

seems like im quite lucky these few days o_O i shall blog abt today's events then go back to ytd. didnt blog ytd cos too lazy =P and played Pokemon SoulSilver the entire evening.. ^^

i really like my new current timetable, which ends very early for almost everyday, unless got some extra activities like today la. anyway, physics was slack, going thru paper1 corrections. apparently i got wrong for most of the questions warren got correct. total marks: 40
wenlong - 21
warren - 20 aw?
jefferson - 21. obviously copied my ans lol jk =P
penghau - more best: nvr do -.-

apparently all 3 got alot of careless mistakes here and there. like my superposition qn la. forget multiply by 2 and jefferson go minus 1 somemore. sian sia Zzz. so difficult la the paper. this time tikum power decreased liao~ T.T jefferson seems to have more careless calculations this time. and warren is like stoning too much. walao ask me qn still can stone ah. and purposely must wake up when i finish saying the answer =.=!!

warren wakes up with a "huh?"

MATHS - sibei slack. just sit there listen to complex numbers. warren drew a very big spiral, i mean circle. and i also was very sian of lesson. then half-way through lesson, i went to toilet cos i see her like answering ronald's qn. when i come back, i see the class talking and asked warren,
WL: eh, got break ah?"
War: ya? isnt tat why you went toilet?
WL: er.. actually i went out before she announced got break..
War: o_O er ok
WL and War: ~wa tat means she purposely one la. declare break when i go toilet~ =.=!!

assembly = slack.
all i did was sit/stand upstairs listening to the ex-vp talk about life. several funny moments during this assembly. speaker mr dennis yeo
1. dennis was trying to ask the audience to do some hand-brain coordination thing. something to do with left hand turning forward and right hand turning backward. actually the point is tat once the speaker said this, OCC spontaneously just did the correct thing, when ms tan sitting on her left gong gong one cannot do. occ seems happy she can do tat. lol random.
2. when the speaker mentioned something abt studying 5hrs straight of physics, ms cheng was clapping her hands up in the air. LOL she also seems happy.
3. something abt staying up till late at night and marking essays. you think teacher really likes marking ah? WOA THIS ESSAY VERY INTERESTING [put ticks all over the paper] ms tan was laughing. she seems happy
4. ..arrange consultation sessions.. must chase/force you to come.. unlike Jesus/Buddha/.. no need to find followers, just sit at top of hill wait for them to come. mr chu laughs loudly. HAHAHAHA. he seems happy
so many things ah?.. refer to http://www.jumpinjellyfish.blogspot.com/
hopefully there got some mention. no mention then go whack the owner of tat blog for answer.

ok time check: i got 12 more mins till 10pm. gotta start revising or else tml mock sure fail like siao.
actually nth happened much for tuesday also. warren and jefferson had a more fun time. so ya. lol so lazy to blog liao.

and yes, i changed the music again. poker face! california gurls. tik tok. fireflies. baby.
instrumentals only

as promised

ok i didnt actually promise i'll make a post, but since im bored so why not blog. anyone i got free time (which should be used for studying). anything happened today? there's the DOS meeting in LT4 so maths lecture at LT3 =( hope next week can go back. anyway jefferson got ject by OCC, ask him about this incident and i think his immediate response is *shakes fist*. after 1.5hr of maths lecture by OCC, she gave us 5min break before starting another hour of maths tutorial Zzz~ how nice of the maths department to arrange such a timetable. then GP need do bloody compre on poverty. why must GP do all the funny topics?!!
- animal rights
- aggression
- Singlish
- choices
- immigration
- poverty
- food
- blockbuster films
...
random sia!
sian tml also got GP lesson. and then after tat got extra maths lesson. why maths so neow/niao one?!!
i knew it. today really go Safra. at least today i tried something new - some [sibei] dry (but nice) ramen. and dun be funny like warren go spam the sauce, making it super sweet. jefferson didnt eat much. for once. hence i need to mega this. lol. wonder how his susi taste like~

Sunday, August 15, 2010

Ok ok update!!

lol didnt noe my blog so popular must keep constantly update! haha!! XD
so er.. [no idea wad to type~]

tml's the start of the new [condensed] timetable, aka can go home early =D, if and only if the GP dun drag the lesson to like 3pm or wad. need to decide now wad to decide on wad to eat for tml lunch. knowing us, if we decide tml, it'll either be KFC[ee..], Safra[again?!!], Jalan Kayu [so far~], or even BPP. too bad not going pizza hut for the tomato soup [for the dun noe how many time already]. so any suggestions from anybody?! =D
im really sian of Lot1 food.. JP oso nth much to eat one~.. so how? cannot eat?
anyway i just finished doing the complex number exercise. except the misc qn at the back. lucky tml no physics no need do paper1(yet). aw so sad tml no PE le.. then stupid maths lecture increased duration by half an hour. bloody hell. maths so niao/neow sia.

15. played computer games.
16. er typing this post?

ok ok need to play less [yea rite]. need to do the physics extra qn or not ah? the one i tot mingyang didnt give me but was actually stolen by warren who gave it to me only this morning!! F5. and sorta need to do GP corrections ~.~ and i tot i needed to update the catchphrase list.. maybe next time ya. oh hvnt do chem 2009 paper3 and 2008 paper2 yet. and sampling methods.

Sunday, August 8, 2010

Update

just a [very] short post before going out later to ahma house again. lol even national day got family gathering. so far i finished the correlation tutorial and am halfway through doing the organic lecture paper, which has 21 long questions Zzz.. so tats all i did for fri and ytd. unproductive ya? hope today can get some work done. i think maybe just do selective qns in the set of maths paper - need to guess which are the qn teacher going thru -.-

Hey Hey!



woo long weekend to slack, i mean do work!
in case some sibei slow ones hvnt realised it, i've changed to a new blog template!! which is much simpler? blacker? darker? eh even i dun noe hw to describe it. LOL loves the new tempate (Y)
hah i always say "it's the best template ever!" until i find a new one.. i dun really have the habit of changing template often, so this one is going to stay for quite some time, like the previous template stayed for like a few months?


to my surprise, the rotating tag cloud is working again!! i noe some ppl love to play/stone at it (cough warren).


random: words in parentheses, normal brackets are meant to be read, whereas words in square brackets [like this] is not meant to be!! so ya.. dun read the square brackets, even though most of them are random/fail/chui/haha/wadever..


back to the tag cloud thing.. ya.. go play with it. it's fun and wastes time o_O


also for those deaf/vol-too-low-or-not-even-turned-on people, the music player now plays original soundtracks from:
- Yu-gi-oh
- Pokemon
- Clannad
- Digimon
- misc~
>.<
here's one of the epic digimon OST:
nice rite? XD


some recent photos:


cute sia!! thx guys! LOL the smaller one from last year fits nicely in the arms of this year's bigger one XD


warren's coffee powder o_O tasted ok la~ =P


tats all for the random sharing of media.
i shall start on my nuclear physics tutorial, and then the assignment. lucky i finished the hypothesis testing tutorial ytd. then if got time [which i highly doubt], i can do some revision for chem?

To Look Into A Mirror..

have you seen yourself clearly into a mirror lately? i know i have. cos i shaved. is that part of growing up? what does it actually mean to grow up? i wonder why people want to grow up so fast. i want to cling on to my memories. memories of joy in my pri sch which passed by too fast. i regret not doing anything much in sec sch. i really love my JC life. i love my college. my teachers [ok cancel richards]. my frens. my cca mates. my favourite spot in the cafe. how could i not? i spend more time in sch than at home. the sch is whr i have fun, laughing out loud and spamming random catchphrases. today i was in the same bus as my jc2 classmate, my sec4 classmate and my pri6 classmate. ppl change too much and too fast. my thoughts are getting more and more random and difficult to manifest in text..

whatever. time to start ranting on stuff!!
bloody hell Chaos Sorcerer became limited again -.-
wads the point sia..
some addition to Semi-Limited list:
- Honest (about time..)
- Cyber Dragon (from limited. er maybe i'll create a Cyber Dragon deck soon)
- Demise, King of Armageddon (from limited.. now my chaos deck is more complete ^^)

though the post shows it was posted at midnight, i decided to cheat abit and update it in the late evening =P today class was so slack =P
today 180 bus so slow and i got to sch at ard 7.30am and penghau was like hehe ^^ [LOL]
and i ate penghau's cake in maths class. quote tiangyun "so sinful"
chem prac was fun! except the part tat the CuCO3 residue is like so er.. chui, cos it like forms some kind of goo tat was like so difficult to dissolve in acid..
geog was slack. HAH!

Saturday, July 24, 2010

yes! a break. just what i need

oops i locked my blog and forgotten to unlock it. and i was thinking why my blog suddenly become so quiet.. did some minor adjustments..

reused the Avril Lavigne pic for header

16 / 7 / 2010

maybe one should really appreciate the availability of seats in the MRT cos at the peak hours, you should be happy at the fact that you still have some space to stand. since i hvnt taken the train at peak hours for such a long time, along with the morning sun shining through the windows of the train, it was getting very unbearable to be in the train..


since we didnt know which direction to travel, the 3 people with me and myself had no choice but to wait for another friend to pick us up. so much for going to tiong bahru to take bus to walk for 5mins. though we were supposed late, it did not result in any consequence. anyway CMPB had this very small but deep locker to keep our handphones. and then began the medical testing.
1. photo taking with uniform on
- nth special
2. urine test
- lol i was reading the instructions on the door and then it opened and a guy came out and said
"just go in and pee la"
- lol my urine spilled out of the container
- but i got the stick dipped anyway
- lol i think the other guy filled the container full cos he was like "oh f---!"
3.blood test
- woah this station is the most fun one
- though the medic sitting there was supposed to be distracting me from the blood collection, he was talking to the other medic who was supposed to be distracting the other enlistee!!
- anyway i enjoyed[?] looking at the blood collection!! ^^ omg it was damn nice [huh?]
ok la maybe as a bio student, i appreciate such things better than others.
- i still have a question: why did they take 1 vial of blood from penghau and weikeng, 2 vials of blood from binghan and jefferson, but only took 1.5 vial of blood from me!! so random~
- lol despite gab saying it's quite painful, i dun really think it is. i just thought there was a minor acute sensation and then no more liao. just see the crimson coloured liquid flow inside to the vial..
- so maybe there's pain, but it's definitely worth it LOL
4-7. hearing, eyesight, dental, x-ray
- these parts are very boring with nothing much to mention~
- wth i have to go back to redo the ecg again -.-
- then again, it means i can skip another day of lesson!
9. height and weight
10. blood pressure
11. genitals check? >.<
- so called one of the highlights of the checkup of many people [including urine test, blood test, vocation test]
- so ya. this also nth much
11. vocation test
- damn long list of questions to do!!
- number pattern is very difficult XP
- the language part also very funny


after a long debate after waiting for binghan to finish the vocation test, the whole group went to vivo city to LJS -.- regretted buying the fish wrap - had too much of the white tartar/mayo sauce and then it tasted funny altogether. penghau bought a small bottle of jellybeans while i bought KitKat dark cholocate.


so after tat i come home to slack lol. anyway my dish in cafe world hasnt expired yet! then tried to complete some of the maple quests. had dinner and is busy typing his post.
so if my schedule is still on, tml i will go to the library to do work. maybe CLT? and then eat the dark chocolate ^^ i probably should start doing PQ
so on sunday i'll do chem planning qns.


since the checkup has already ended, the countdown timer is acting as a stopwatch now, counting the time passed since 9am this morning. i'll change it if i got any other events to countdown towards

Longg Weekend

im already starting to write this post before i reached home. rather than just looking outside the window, i thought of writing a post earlier. here's the content of this post:
- chem lecture and banding
- phys lecture and afternoon classes
- geog lecture
- homework for weekend


must have misplaced the organic planning question paper. instead of paying attention, i was just daydreaming in lecture. so probably missed quite a lot of content and some of the jokes. next week, the cohort is going to be split up for banded lecture, which suddenly struck to me - wads the lecture going to be on? my chem grade D got me into band 2 lecture at LT4, which is the same as warren? and hopefully can get a good seat to sleep in~


omg i just passed phys paper2! which is just ard my expectations. wonder why my paper2 so chui. after the 1M for the 12M planning question, my worse question was qn2 oscillations. phys hasnt announced plans for banding yet, not until nuclear physics is over.
anyway ms tan was not disappointed with the phys results. so maybe it was a difficult paper? seriously la.. so cham! today ms cheng [and richards =D] nvr come >.<>
and almost the entire class went home and didnt stay till 3pm


waited quite some time before getting back geog results. jefferson MUST BE quite happy tat he got a better grade than last time. and though penghau did one less question, i only got 1M higher for the overall score!! [in other words, his other sections not bad] ok fine it's actually because my other sections very lousy. wah if even jefferson can get higher than me, warren got chance to pass geog already!!


ok tml no sch cos need to go NS checkup.. regardless of tat, there's still alot of homework:
1.maths
- paper 1 & 2 corrections
- central limit theorem tutorial


2. chem
- paper 2 & 3 corrections
- organic and inorganic planning questions exercises


3. phys
- paper 2 corrections


4. geog
- start to revise for litho? [99% chance of incompletion]


5. GP
- copy over more notes
- study for the test? [as if.. -.-]

The Weekend

i had woke up early at 8am. probably it's because i slept early ytd at 11pm. lol actually the only reason i wanted to sleep was because it was getting very very sian to copy over the GP notebook. my previous one was almost used up and besides it contained some of my most illegible handwriting, not to mention being home to some of my random doodles and also had some maths, chem, phys rough working =P i seriously need a new one, though it probably wont help me in getting a better grade..

well that was yesterday. today i need to at least finish the notes on Science and bioethics. and also need to do corrections for MYE chem and physics paper1. been trying to reduce the time for gaming. and i also had the realisation that im running out of games to play. which is good!! cos then i would most likely be studying. i must get better grades for prelim.

ok rephrase: i must study for prelim.
this june holidays was like last year, all the time wasted on gaming. the only studying was only a few days before the actual exam. memorising giant paragraphs of hydro notes within such a short time was horrible @_@ even worse then O'lvl bio.

i knew i couldnt get an A for maths..
would it have helped if i studied for maths? i never really studied for maths.. i didnt even bother just reading notes. maybe stats could have practiced more. and i didnt bother to actually practice my weaker topics.. just went into the exam hall.. do the questions.. come out thinking GG..
i wouldnt actually say stats pulled me down.. COS IF I STUDIED!!...
i really should study.. to get an A instead of just 69%
for jefferson's ranting on him not getting 90% pls click on the following link:
[insert currently non-existent link here]

i took back my chem paper1 results with VERY SLIGHT disappointment
lol i actually aimed 27!!
HAHA missed by 1 mark -.-
o_O apparently cadmium is a heavy metal that causes protein denaturation.
actually it came out in the nitrogen compounds notes and not transition elements notes
BingHan got godly score of 38/40. good job ^^
see! study!! @_@

woah physics was er [insert adjective]. cannot get a word to describe it..
so shocked to manage to get 25/40?
so stupid tat so many of my answers were A..
and guesses were B or C.
and 3 of my guesses got correct!! like qn28 =P

i finally got a chance to eat chicken rice in school after so many days of eating chicken rice outside school. and it tasted the same [duh].

ok this time i still have most of the cohort to do badly with me for Geog ^^ [so bad sia..]
the global DRQ can go eat shit.. essay also..
litho not so bad but er..
hydro probably the best in the world XD

ok time now is ard 8.45am. normally i would still be sleeping. so i'll probably eat my breakfast early and start to do work after that.

And i Wanna believe you

seems so long after mid-years have already passed~ though it ended only yesterday? o_O must be getting really bored with nothing better to do unlike someone who had the drive to mop the floor of his room.
today was a waste of time in school, at least for 3hrs when GP paper was gone through. i only listened to a bit on the part of the most popular question done, which is also the question i did. can i pass my essay? probably not.. my the lecturer did say paper2 was quite well done [generally. at least for page1]. i got this from Ivan Lim:
so what if you're rich but irritate the rest of the world?
tat was random.
today was the 1st day i bought tea from the canteen. tasted nice =D
when did i buy it? during the time ivan lim was going through paper1, i went down to the canteen and bought it. lol i saw other j2s also in the canteen hangin' out. with an unaware mr koh also in the canteen with the other PE teachers having break time.

the alumni sharing was pretty funny. and they were right and wrong on one point. they said "i was once sitting down there and i forgotten wad the previous alumni had said" and now while im typing this post, i realised oh ya! i forget everything! [except the part when they said ppl will forget everything]. didnt noe ms leong's voice was so appreciated =P
and i learnt tat it's useless to READ pages of integration notes and hope/pray/[insert verb] tat one will score well. and for quantum, just take it as it is, dun ask why =P and smoke your way through geog.

if anybody was looking for during 2.30pm to 4pm, pls lemme noe. i was sleeping in chem lecture.

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

Ytd was maths exams

lol cheating timing of post once again =P
only started writing this post at 9.40pm on 30/6/2010

i really should have studied for maths paper..
and use MF15 more effectively
while ppl spent like a short time doing the 1st question, poor me was rewriting my answers over and over again cos i blindly copied x from MF15 rather than using the unknown θ given in the qns =.=
the other qns were equally bad~
the easiest qns was obviously qn2 [6M], where warren had only one working step?
didnt have enough time to finish all the qns.
this paper is so much harder than the mock exam!!

went home to sleep for like 4hrs~~
tats why the next day like feeling so lethargic..

Maths Mock Paper and The Karate Kid

this post is for yesterday =P

so almost the whole class got to school earlier than me. i didnt know my class missed school so much that SOME would even reach school at 6.50am?! WTD
and yesterday i learnt tat Ming Yang likes drinking water more than me =.=
the mock exam didnt turn out so bad. too lazy to draw all 8 points on the argand diagram, with careless mistakes here and there. i wonder if i passed o_O..
had lunch before joining the godly-long queue at JP Popular
[wonder why so many ppl are buying stuff tat day..]
with some reluctance, i used my BND$10.00 to pay for my popcorn, which according to yesterday's exchange rate, is equivalent to using SGD$10.00 =.=
after seating down at the theatre, i realised i didnt the title of the movie i was watching!!

ok so it turned out to be karate kid.
lol the trailer is as funny as the movie
hm i got a feeling warren likes the movie ALOT
esp with Lady Gaga's Poker Face playing
and also Justin's Bieber's Never Say Never playing at the end of the movie
funny movie ^^

Weak Solution [random~]

In mathematics, a weak solution (also called a generalized solution) to an ordinary or partial differential equation is a function for which the derivatives appearing in the equation may not all exist but which is nonetheless deemed to satisfy the equation in some precisely defined sense. There are many different definitions of weak solution, appropriate for different classes of equations. One of the most important is based on the notion of distributions.
Avoiding the language of distributions, one starts with a differential equation and rewrites it in such a way that no derivatives of the solution of the equation show up (the new form is called the weak formulation, and the solutions to it are called weak solutions). Somewhat surprisingly, a differential equation may have solutions which are not differentiable; and the weak formulation allows one to find such solutions.
Weak solutions are important because a great many differential equations encountered in modelling real world phenomena do not admit sufficiently smooth solutions and then the only way of solving such equations is using the weak formulation. Even in situations where an equation does have differentiable solutions, it is often convenient to first prove the existence of weak solutions and only later show that those solutions are in fact smooth enough.
