hmm

ok after some talking to friends and stuff.. i realised maybe my results aren't so good after all. from what i gather, there are so many people with straight As ! and that's just in SA, a lousy average school. what about schools like rj? hci? 90% straight As issit? ugh how i get my scholarship lidat

and im on a freaking losing streak in warcraft3. i think im just not good enough. keep getting outplayed by my opponents. i need more practice! ugh, gonna train during block leave.

tmr have to wake up at 5+ -_- just to get to boonlay by 715. stupid SAF send me to go visit that place. waste my saturday!! hope i can zhao early.

That song you picked was just so apt. It almost seems like you wrote it yourself
don't worry, i aint crushed
in fact, i think you are right
we just aren't meant to be together

baaa

woo, just got back my A level results. and i did pretty well!

General Paper: B
:( grr. just couldn't get A for this. Never expected an A anyway.

Math, Physics, Chem, Econs : A

A A A A B

woot. the surprise was econs.. i have no idea how i got A. i never even came close to getting A before in JC.. and my Bs were all bare minimum Bs. like just on the dot. i think they moderated alot.

Mm, i dont think it's THAT good leh. i see got alot of other people getting 3, 4 As, and several with straight As. But still, thank God for helping me through the exam period, wouldn't have been possible without His strength.
And of course, my study partner through As- glad she did well too =)

Now i'm reading up on all the University applications, scholarship applications and stuff. Quite scary ah, almost like entering the next phase of life. I used 'almost' cos im still in my current shitty phase of NS -_-
So i saw that the scholarship applications were open.. so i went to the NUS application form and decided to start filling up.. fill fill fill.. until i saw the last box:

"PERSONAL STATEMENT*
Describe in less than 2000 characters, an exceptional achievement that highlights your academic interests and intellectual capacity that would be of value to the NUS community."

!??!? Ok firstly why is it so weird, 2000 CHARACTERS. They want to test if you know how to use Microsoft Word issit. Or they scared people put too many commas and hyphens?
secondly... i have no freaking exceptional achievement!! I haven't done anything significant in life, i've been always ordinary and never like.. go the extra mile to do something. I dont even have anything that i can butter up and bullshit about!
arhghgh. how to apply scholarship lidat.

ok la, i think i go relack and play warcraft abit. then go back to thinking about my future. :p chowz.

a short post about nothing

when darkness turns to light
it ends tonight
it ends tonight

ah, it's kinda weird seeing civilisation only once a week. when i travel to places i haven't been in a while, i see new BUILDINGS being set up or buildings being torn down. and the area around my house suddenly became more handicap-friendly with railings all over and those ramp paths for wheelchairs

man, one thing i thank god for is my best friend. chris is really the.. role model of a best friend. If there's a national best friend campaign ill recommend her for it. haha. i really hope she adjusts to her school though. :/

i have a new ambition - i'm gonna train my warcraft3 skills. My goal is to reach the top 16 or 25 of any competition (e.g. some cyber gaming competition outside) , and maybe top 100 on battlenet (i'm currently 400++ )
It wont be easy, i have to improve alot more. and not as if ill be getting alot of time to play if i go to SISPEC. but it's a long term goal! like maybe.. within 2-3 years? =) rawr.

oh, and i have the most irritating thing on earth. HEAT RASH. ok maybe it's not heat rash cos as i google the treatments the symptoms seem to be different from what i have.
Ok i have like slight itchiness all the time. then at random times, usually when i just start exercising or get my body heated up.. WHAM. i feel like 20371208947 red ants just bit me on my back/neck areas. *)(@$&@Q painful can. and it comes in random waves. then sometimes it lasts for quite long. ill try not to scratch and pour water or sth. zz
pray for me that this rash will go away. it's killing me. has been there since field camp which means about 2 weeks!! :(
