My Caffeine Crave - Day 19, 20, 21

Firstly, I would like to give myself a slap in the face. Seriously, I got 19 for my L1R5! Can you believe it! It was all contributed to English and Combined Humans. I got C5 for English and B4 for Humans. I am totally shocked that I did horribly for my English. I thought that I was moderately OK for my English, you know 11 people got C for English while the rest got better grades. How demoralising! Urgh! If I got B3 for EL and A2 for CH, my L1R5 would drop to 15, maybe 14 if I had one more mark for Chem. Stupid society. If only I had a great voice, maybe I could like, do a duet with Mariah Carey and the song would be a hit!

Anyway, I wish puasa started one month earlier. I keep on craving for coffee in the mornings. Oh my god my salivating at just the thought of yummy coffee! Mmmm...

SUBJECTS THAT JUST NEED A LITTLE MAINTENANCE
E Maths
My only A1. Just need to do a couple of challenging TYS questions.

Biology
My only A2. Yay! A2 for Bio you know. Just need to memorise the basic answers to the usual questions that would usually come up.

SUBJECTS THAT NEED POLISHING
Chemistry
B4. Talked to Mrs Tay on Thursday to clarify my doubts. Did those numerous Chemistry Past-Year Papers. Need to know everything on Organic Chem!

Physics
B3. What the hell, right? I don't understand all the Sec 4 topics and am forced to depend on my memory and my Chemistry is worse than my Physics? Well, first thing is that I need to understand the Sec 4 topics, but I keep on reading the textbook and guidebooks and my notes and I still do not understand!

SUBJECTS THAT NEED MAJOR IMPROVEMENT
English
C5 man! I feel so embarrassed and humiliated. Ok, talked to Mdm Wan on Thursday. I have decided to do a paper everyday (that includes Paper 1 and 2). I need at least 2 grades improvement.

Combined Humanities

B4
Geog is OK. Just need to vomit out all the facts.
SS is horrible! I write down the irrelevant! I might want to ask Ms Neo to mark my essays and point out my mistakes.


A Maths
C5 moderated. F9 unmoderated. Three letters: Tee Why Ess

Suffer for one month, enjoy the rest of the year.

Ms Woon's comment on me: It's heartening to see the improvement in Humanities, Hakim. Continue to stretch yourself more to ensure that you can get into a JC of your choice.

Comments on Ms Woon's comment: Improvement in Humanities? I need to get an A first, then I would call it improvement! And I might consider going to a Poly and take up Biomedical Engineering or something like that, since I'm quite OK in Bio. JC makes you shorten your lifespan by 20 years.

Stupid Singapore education system! Can't we combine secondary school, JC and poly and make it into High School and spend 6 years there?

Don't worry. Just like Mariah Carey, I can make it through the rain!
