Gosh. I think this is the worst week so far... D:Staying back for projects almost everyday we can... trying to complete them on time...
Goodness.
Even if the teachers give us the projects early, it's not like we have time to do it!
Well. My group managed to finish the cell bio model... by staying back till 6pm+ and working on it during breaks Q_Q
Had so many problems with the freaking model it's not even funny. Thank goodness everything worked out in the end...
Also bio diversity video was due this week... but Michelle didn't come today and she's the video-editing person D:
I hope Mrs Fernandez will understand =/
I can't wait for year 5 so i can stop studying Chinese OTL
Looking at the HCL papers... i don't even know how i managed to stand doing all those compre questions last time...
At this point, i'm already so sick of Chinese to the point that i can't even bring myself to finish the compre questions of the past-year paper.
Actually, i'm just really freaking sick of Chinese compre.
I can tolerate writing compos... but not compres oh god.
Especially when i had to sit for that stupid Chinese proficiency test which had 7. freaking. compres.
I died. Or rather, i was on the brink of swearing in the middle of the test.
Oh and i found out that they had fire drills in hostel. And the fire alarm is also faulty apparently. So it randomly rings sometimes. And i heard that it rang at like super early morning ._.
Definitely not looking forward to fire drills...
Been reading Bokko-chan by Shin'ichi Hoshi. Japanese, duh.
It's a collection of 50 short stories which are less than 10 pages each~
It's a really good book to start reading Japanese novels hahaha.
I would say it's around high N4-N3 level? Idk.
There were some words i didn't know, but i did understand most, if not all, of the plot. (LOL the plot is so short in the first place)
Gahhh need to study grammarrrrrrr. My Japanese grammar is so weak meh.
My vocab is good because of Anki~
Somehow i think my reading improved? I seem to be reading at a faster speed, and i can actually skim through the easy stuff/hiragana...
If i manage to plough through all 50 stories, i'm gonna give that first love anthology book another try. That one's about 50 pages / story though. (Although the text is larger...and more spaced out...)
I need a buffer LOL. Something that is about 20-40 pages ._.
EXAMS ARE COMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
in less than a month omg.
I don't think my CAP for this semester is gonna be better than the last D:
It might be worse...

Hmm... today was okay... good stuff more than bad stuff.Morning assembly.
The music was played so loud that even Claire couldn't be heard over the mike.
And she's probably the loudest girl in choir, maybe apart from Xin Yi.
Yes, i'm still bitter.
Art was okay. Started on the background for my last piece.
I really like how it's looking so far... just hope i don't screw up colouring the jar, face, phone and table OTL
Because i think i will. Especially the face and jar.
Chem.
Was just utterly horrible.
Mr Lee apparently didn't give us the pre-test because he "thought it was too similar to the assignment" so he didn't pass it to us.
And guess what. The test was definitely not "similar" to the assignment.
It was totally screwed up...
I'll be happy even if i manage to pass man.
And even the top scoring people didn't manage to finish all the questions...
Goodness.
Even if it was "too similar to the assignment", he still should have given us the pre-test for practice gdi argh.
Blargh.
PPV was boring as usual.
Teacher was like going through quotient rule step by step for one of the questions... -_-
But omg differentiation of vectors is horrendous, seriously.
The differentiated vector is so ugly Q_Q
There was another Music and Art Appreciation program, this time was cartooning.
The guy who came was someone who was apparently the only Singaporean to be Creative Arts Director in Disney (Asia) or something...
He was really really funny though xD
Made jokes all the time man... his drawing was good too :3
Don't really agree on some stuff though.
Like how he said that the idea that cute means big head, small body belonged to him...
I mean, Japanese have been drawing chibis forever!
Choir was really refreshing...
Because the year 6s are gone now... only like 20 people were left LOL.
But we still sounded about the same though o.o
We could totally stand in a single row now ahaha.
Session was funny as always. Ms Lim \o/
"No pressure." "Just get it right." xD
Stuff arrived from Gmarket today!
Pretty satisfied with the 2 dresses, but the skorts were a little short, and the elastic waist is only about just nice for me OTL
Material was okay... considering the price...
Was $9-$9.50 for each piece i bought, but with postage it cost about $10 each.
Which was a steal i guess.
Bugis Street quality?

Meep recent bad results.PPV: Got half the total marks deducted because i thought 1/sqrt(2) was smaller than 1/2... ><
Math: Somehow mixed up the differentiation formulas for inverse trigonometric equations...
Meh.
Anyway.
Year 6 farewell party today! \o/
Had some games... played Whacko (as always). We played double whacko though haha.
Then pizza time~
We were given these cute wire keychains that spelled out "Choir" =w=
And some year 6s went around giving notes to the juniors (:
There's only gonna be about half our choir next year after the year 6s graduate @A@
Basically only junior choir left...

God. More stuff being thrown at us.
Was just told that there will be a chem test next Monday... we were so against it... but it still ended up being stuck on Monday D<
Like seriously... there are way too many projects and stuff due this week... there is no way we can prepare in time... :C
Screw this.
It's like when the week hasn't started, everything seems fine.
But once it's Monday, tada things start to get crazy. It's been the same freaking thing every single week so far.
I don't get it. What are the teachers doing. Why is our curriculum so packed.
Oh and guess what. English oral presentation on Wednesday.
And we got like, what, 2-3 weeks to prepare?
Seriously man.
They're like throwing projects at us like we've got nothing to do.
We've already got the advocacy speech project, yet they still want to give us this additional oral presentation.
Someone tell me what's the point?
Okay i went to check the choir noticeboard for the singing schedule thingy... my turn's on T4W8... on the day of english/bio exam OTL
I still don't get the point of this.
You either can't hear the person singing or can barely hear them. So what's the point? >.>
Like people are gonna sing just because someone's up there singing.
I've probably said this a million times already lmao. Seriously am against this stupid arrangement.
Master class turned out pretty okay... Mr Toh was funny ahahaha. More funny than strict haha. Maybe Ms Lim got influenced by him LOL :p
We sounded so much better than we usually do... O.o
Oh and he said we had good altos :3
E-learning tomorrow... only liking the staying at home part :p
Gonna have to chiong to finish all the e-learning crap... then have to work on Current Affairs Portfolio, math journal and PPV journal... :<
So much stuff to do argh.
Plus all the freaking projects due soon... god.
Seriously can't wait for Year 5 man.

#366: Choir camp '12!
Whooooo~
Choir camp was okay... if not fun!
Day 1 was just some ice breaker games, barbeque and then practice.
Barbeque was like charcoal drawing fest ahaha. We drew all over the floor near the amphitheatre xD
But later on it started raining so everything was washed away...
The BBQ food wasn't that bad... but the chicken was funny omg xD
Charcoal chicken, uncooked chicken, pretty chicken idk what...
Sleeping in the classroom is hard, seriously ._.
The rest of the people were like peacefully staying in their spot... while i was trying to find a comfortable place to sleep while trying not to wake the rest up omg...
Let's see... i tried lying on the tables/chairs/floor and tried sleeping the way you sleep in class while sitting at the table LOL.
I only realised in the end that i was quite comfortable sleeping on my left side on the tables... but i was originally quite uncomfortable sleeping on my right side OTL
But then moments later... exco came and made us sing choir anthem "Like an eagle" at like 5.30am or something ._.
So in the end i didn't even manage to sleep... idk why but i always can't sleep during camps... even during the Year 1 camp... I was like sitting up in the tent and just daydreaming (in the night LOL)
Day 2.
Breakfast was quite nice. Wraps with ham and cheese. and hot milo! \o/
Then after that we went through the wet activities... played through 4 game stations to earn water bags.
Then it was water bomb fight time! xD
It was supposed to be protecting the hula hoop covered with newspaper... but it was gone so fast hahaha.
In the end we just filled up tons of plastic bags with water and had a water bomb war \o/
My front got really wet but my back was like totally dry lol...
We had pizza for lunch... then 3 hour of practice.
Got 2 new songs.
No idea what they're for o-o
I hope master class won't be scary omg Q_Q
Ms Lim is already intimidating enough... (though she's nice lol)
i don't wanna know how her mentor is like e.e
let's just hope it goes well...
Okay. So i came home and found 2 letters with 2 DBS iBanking devices on my computer table.
And no one knows who put it there. Probably my older sis though.
Seriously... god.
One was the one which i waited ages for and didn't arrive to me... (probably got into my older sis' hands and she didn't open it until really late)... the other one was the one i requested since i thought i didn't get it -_-
Now i have no idea how to register it wtf.
And now i apparently ran out of login attempts.
So now i probably have to call DBS.
One of the devices looked used. o-o
It has like the sticker pasted at the back already while the other doesn't...
