THREE MORE!

ONE MORE DOWN!

had my GEK 1527 finals at 5pm today. best finals format of 60 MCQs! okay but i wasnt easy. not as smooth as i had predicted it would be! there were many many many ambiguous qns, and many of them involved poor expression of language in the question, which makes it the more frustrating!! its not that i dunno how to do, its the question that is unclear!

and there were many tricks around, two of which i spotted and was happy to see them =D but after that i realised i had misunderstd some questions and had some wrong interpretations/ missed out some info in the question that was vital to getting the correct ans. sian! MALE MAMMAL. i din even see the word MALE at all. zzz.

and of cos the baodian questions were whr we ask ourselves WHO IS IAN WILMUT and WHO WON THE NOBEL PRIZE. gosh! i did expect prof to give some questions like who invented/discovered wad la. and i took some time to roughly rmbr some. but it turns out he asked which of the following won nobel prize! haha this was certainly not wat a student would consider impt info to rmbr.

overall, i thought it was pretty tough to score. cos its not THAT difficult, but having to figure out what the lecturer wants by deciphering his own code is not easy!! and i made some mistakes here and there and there will bound to have more, esp when i had 10+ question of which i wasnt sure. damn er xin to have a feeling of "not i dunno how to answer but i dunno wth he is asking".

HOPE for all the best lor? lol. the two points lost from missing survey will be yet a crucial blow again if i dun do well for this module. hah.

FOUR MORE!

okay yeah im done with one module, now left with four more haha.

this morning was EG1413 finals worth 40%. the topic was relevant (sex selection for children) and i could understand what they were talking about. the essay was also very well split thus it was easier to pick out the writer's argument.

However, my time management was not that good. Although i finished on time, i felt I should have been more focused and spent more quality time trying to phrase my points critically rather than chiong through and worrying that time was not on my side. so in the end i crapped and wrote a bit too much i guess, probably about reaching 1000 words le =X haha hope the tutor dun count!! gosh. i really repeated and said too much crap cos i founf myself frequently lost in attempting to express myself. that is a big problem of mine la. been with me for qt some time alr.

anw, im glad i finished the paper and that this module is over. i dun have too high hopes for this module, but i do carry some hope cos you will never know! haha to encourage myself of cos, it can be qt subjective like how i passed my QET even though i really felt i wrote crap lousier than a secondary student. lol. maybe. perhaps. hahaha.

we shall see. what grade will i get for this "dreaded" module that on hindsight should not have been so dreaded?

MY STUPID FACE
hahaha it always happens to me to get a stupid/unglam/lame/unsatisfactory/weird face on the important documents! lol. this is my newly received hong kong ic. lol. only my NRIC photo i look qt good and im satisfied! hahaha the rest are... usually like this. haha anw it alr looks better from this camera angle. it is worse when i look at it in an upright manner LOL!

Response to a response to a response

just to keep some friends who are "overmugging" and "nth better to do" and like to
meng fan the fire" entertained:


i was pretty sure he said that mugging line in response to a comment which i made that sounded non sensical to him. well of cos thats wad i heard, and if he truely din say it then it COULD be a misunderstding. but, thats def wad i heard. cos we werent discussing about lateness at all. we were moving a bench and then i said something, he looked stunned and lost for words that bamm, the line came out of his mouth. who knows? no video evidence also.

only if he said that line, den it would qualify for me to say he wasnt right to say that. cos mugging is his forte. so if i had misheard that sentence, then the "right" will be NA bah. his reasoning was qt illogical there.

the jump here jump there would refer to his actions, like jumping over the "what-u-call-that-barrier-thingy" and passing the ball with damn weird projections which i already mentioned that it was irritating. of cos he apologised, and i also did pass poorly esp that sunday LOL but its just the overall feel. like missing the ball, den meng hit it and try to bounce it off the floor but getting played around by the ball instead. it just looks childish from my view thats all. there are many actions that he displays that are childish, many would agree. i see no point in discussing this point. what im trying to say is that he could possibly calm down a bit and be more composed, which will also help his gameplay, no doubt. the 滑稽actions i see are qt distracting and altho funny, in the long run it can be rather irritating. it may not be childish in truth, but it certainly LOOKS so.

indeed i cannot stop anyone from being subjective and of cos penning down his personal point of view in his personal blog. agreed. wholeheartedly. well, however, i felt i was obliged to respond to his indirect "plea" of PH. i felt it was rather disrespectful of him to say such things about me on his blog, esp THRASHED. hmmm... but well if he insists that what he said was just a result of being subjective, i cant say much eh.

and it is precisely that fact that it is a short account that it should be a truthful and telling one, or else ppl will be misled. of cos, unless it is the bloggers intention to provide an inaccurate view. if it is his desire, than that will be the questionable aspect. why would he do so? giving an inaccurate account just becos its his blog? is he entitle to do so?

anw, im tired of this crap. its not my wish to start a cyber war. the onlookers are looking eagerly and deriving entertainment (pathetically) from this shit. instead of trying to be intellectual, this is wat i have to say..

i just hope u can touch your heart and as i said, 对得起自己最重要.

Blog Entry Review

A friend of mine had a blog entry on his blog recently and i feel obliged to respond here.

This is what he said:


In response, I would first like to say that it I concede he fully deserved the two victories (among the hundreds of loses) and in the two games, he probably did exceedingly well, compared to his other performances in these months that is. He devised this new (for him) and cunning serve which he executed well in these two games. Strong side spin on it. Even though I thought i knew how to counter many types of spins, that spin was difficult to handle and I had a problem returning the serve well enough to put myself in advantage. till now, i still dun have a good solution to respond to the serve. Rarely being in the backseat, I was unsettled for some time.

okay back to the review. i wasnt surprised to see this entry cos knowing him, he loves to win. and will definitely blog abt such things. Reading it was seriously cool to beat gum in 2 consecutive games, i felt it was expected. however, the words "ulti-fast and swift smashes" were a bit hard to swallow. firstly, praise should be showered on u by ppl who recognise your strengths, not by written by youreself to heap praise onto yourself! He did manage to smash for a number of times and they were great hits. but i dun think it was those smashes that really won the game for him. those earned him points but more importantly my inability to deal with his serves was probably the crucial turning point. in addition, i believe there were many unforced errors on my part, particularly when i had a bad spell during which i did not manage to get the ball over the net for many many times. =((

Moving on to the momentum was right, yes. indeed. being shaken, i lost a bit of form and he gained the upper hand in terms of morale and form. furthermore, his childish actions like jumping here and there and passing the ball poorly was always going to make me more demoralised, it always does. lol. dun understd la!

demoralised face? oh gosh i din get to see that part. i was pretty down, but i dun think he had to say that? haha perhaps it was really bad. from my memory, i was putting on a silly smile throughout when i laughed at my inability to get the ball across the net or something liddat. demoralised? hmm. i dunno how much of that i showed. i was quieter? how to meng talk when u are losing sia. haha cannot make it trying all means to calm down and get hold of myself and remain calm, maybe thats why look "stern" or "serious".

and last but definitely not least: THRASHING? oh man. this is the part where i cannot accept the most. i would most definitely concede that he deserved both victories. and that his serves were great, some smashes and change of direction was well done! but thrashing? hmmm. i dun think he thrashed me bah?? one game i lost from a deuce, so probably about 15-13 or 14-12? the other one wasnt that bad ba? i would have gotten about 6 at least? cant rmbr, but thrashing is too much of a stab on me to take.

This blog entry had taken off much of his credit for winning me. i dun see why he should use those words that gives an inaccurate account of the whole incident. it was more of a personal attack by saying that he was happy to see my demoralised face la!

nonetheless, i still honestly and sincerely congratulate him for winning and learning how to smash better.

hahahahahhahaha =D

there you go, ur expected and eagerly awaited full-length paohong. see next time u dare to haolian or not! win more than haolian!!!!! win justin and wx first la!



(just a side note to him reading this entry: i really din like the line u said when we were at the court. mug too much until cannot think? or something along that line. firstly, i wasnt mugging that much. and secondly if u urself mug, i dun think u have the right to say such things.)
