"why do I yield to that suggestion whose horrid image doth unfix my hair and make my seated heart knock at my ribs against the use of nature?"
it was raining this morning and the rain stopped and ri's weatherman predicted that no the rain was not going to start again and so we have to go for assembly.
we had physics. new topic. back to the 3 laws of newton.
hmm chi was spent copying out answers for a worksheet. no comment.
bio was quite cool. today was the parts of the heart. and we watched an actual heart surgery. i cant believe how these ppl can actually manage to keep their hands steady. the surgeon was like pointing at the various blood vessels after they cut the guy up and pried his body open to reveal the heart. just there. the camera stayed on it as the guy was commentating ><>< oh man cant stand it. the heart looked like a big bag of nonsense. if im not wrong it was yellow? dunno. ahh how can ah.
then recess was watching ppl play bball.
chem did titration again. quite fun haha. i think my values shouldd be correct la. lol. bought the rated (artistic) mag from the rj guy. mr tan's old student came to sell. i think it should readable. articles on gender stereotypes, gender barrier and the change campuses. it seems the first two topics are popular with the student population blah. but i skimmed through and they seemed pretty standard stuff. oh well. it was selling for $1.
maths was financial math again. the advanced module is funner and easier than our normal topics >< or maybe its because i don't bother to listen hmmm. but its definitely more practical! learning to watch your money grow is an important lifeskill k. i dunno but we seem to be bugging raymond fong to teach differentiation every new topic. it must be important to be so applicable everywhere then. next year's syllabus hmm.
after lunch last period english. went through article. watched hotel rwanda. the depictions of the horror were a torture to watch. its so inhumane and impossible. how can any genocide even take place? and then after it happens theres always without fail so much talk about why didn't the international bodies take action. why didn't this people do this. powerful words can kill. socrates's condemning view of rhetoric is justified.
went home with josh and seth.. and i sat next to this old man. i was sleeping for the entire duration of the journey and when i woke up at the bus interchange. he took me by surprise when he asked whether i was having my exams. i nodded in the moment of confusion and he started telling me to go home and rest, take a cold bath and "mug" (wow he used this word) at night and sleep, and wake up in the morning and revise. rofl. i think he asked me to take alternate hot and cold bath? ><" doesnt that cause you to have fevers? okayyyyyyyyy. i was like erm thank you. lol.
i went home and i died on the bed after reading the first act of macbeth. my lit essay is horribly overdue. lucky ppl like daryl have not done theirs too or ill be embarrassed to death! i need to get started sigh.
lit file is due tmr. chi file due friday. english speech due friday. english portfolio next week. chi project next week. and many many other misc wkshts + overdue hw.
but its quite cool. next wed (week 5) is ri lecture. the whole sch gets to listen to this bigshot talking for the whole day so theres no lessons =)
week 6 august 1 monday headmaster just announced a day off yay. for good results in competitions etc. + an unofficial reason that william tan's attempt to break the gwr will be on 30 and 31 july so its sorta a makeup for our weekend.
then week 7 theres national day so its 1 day for celebrations, 1 public holiday, 1 sch holiday. + 2 days off for english festival! wow. the whole week is gone. i love this. no lessons for 9 days inc the 2 weekends flanking the school week. but the advanced geog ppl have to go for some weather thingo to see the experts on friday evening. doesnt spoil the mood tho.
and week 8 we're going off to malaysia! hoho. whole ge batch to kl and ipoh =)
hurray! but i bet before all the holidays the teachers are going to kill us with all the assignments and quizzes. bad bad.
haha okay cya. i think i like macbeth's character. conflicting characters are fun to read. especially ppl who tend to the evil side hurray. haha.
