all the calls/sms-es/online convo's about the area of a friggin' snowflake payed off (or so i hope)
i'm still a little unsure of my portfolio 'cos others have like 18 pages on average, and mine's only 12/13... but 'evs, i'm glad i'm no longer thinking in terms of geometric progressions anymore...
so as expected, i arrived in class bleary eyed, and the first thing i did was to go see my classmates' portfolios 'cos i had left one part blank, so having got the answer (and also after taking a look at jitwei's), i spent the first HL2 period typing in the debate room, but i realized i forgot to bring my calculator, and being slightly excel-illiterate, i could only do the last part back in class during the first break, and after running to print in the library, i realized there wasn't any chinese, so that was 160mins free so far...
at lunch, i found out that ckc wasn't around either, so that was another hour gone...
i spent that period talking to han an around the school, about ppl/music and everything...
then it was my first lesson of the day, math, where we were given the last 20mins off 'cos dy had finished teaching vectors, so sean/me went to the sac (my third time in total) to grab some food before HL2, which was free again...
i was planning to go to the debate room to catch some shut eye before history (i didn't think i had it in me to stay awake), but when i got there, turned on the aircon and was about to arrange some of the many cushions we have, i saw an anonymous lady outside, and she came in and was like oh, we're having training now... so after a stunned moment, i was like are you larissa, and she was like yeah, so i figured she was here to train the club, so i had to find alternative locations...
thinking that point.eight would be relatively empty, i went there only to find gareth getting aom's students to join j.ong's class, and i was like no thanks...
so i went to the sac where i found the rest of my classmates who did not have econs, which was a sizeable number, and after talking for a bit and giving gerald a fake url for question 8 of portfolio, i went to talk to han an/zhang yuan, but i should totally have just stayed with the class 'cos han an was just lying his a** off, which was pretty funny, but got boring after a while...
i went up with the class slightly before history to find the hl math ppl sitting outside our class doing undone homework (like seriously, who does that kinda thing anymore? we're not 12 you know), and i had the opportunity to catch a catnap for about 10mins before ty came in, so i didn't collapse completely during class...
headed home with clarence/aikwee(point.six)...
2 lessons are seriously not worth coming to school for, but at the same time, i'm a teensy guilty about not going for econs, but i really wasn't in the mood, what with my head still reeling from math... but then along the corridor gerald/gen/chunwui were discussing the finer points of fiscal policy, and i realized that nowhere in the crevices could i find the definition of fiscal policy and promptly freaked out inwardly...
when the sept hols begin i'm really gonna have to start studying (involuntary shudder)
oh and if anyone was wondering the supposed holiday isn't on friday, which is aces day with a twist (literally) this year, 'cos instead of the usual walking, there's supposed to be some dance...
and speaking of dance, the 2007 Asean Scholar's JC Dance Part, EQUINOX, will be held at the marriott hotel next tuesday evening...
'cos there are a number of asean scholars in my class, the link to the party blog is on my class blog, so do check it out if you wanna go... i hear it's quite the social event...
during lunch today i found out quite a number of my classmates are going, so i'm tempted to go as well, date optional (but recommended)
before i sign off, just a little rant (i've been doing this lately, but some ppl are seriously way too comfortable with themselves) -
it's not like i'm desperate for help to get the portfolio done, seriously...
like if you don't wanna help just say so, no need to ignore/make excuses...
it doesn't really matter if you get it done half a year (i exaggerate) in advance, but it's really the marks in the end...
and with that attitude, my points are so gonna continue to stay at a comfortable level above your's...
oh and did i mention it's math? to think i needed to ask you for help for that...
just like a tattoo,
John.
