today: 3+ hrs of lit lecture. already-tired hands frantically scribbling. there's a dent on the side of my index finger where my thumb presses it when holding a pen; the side of my little finger is all shiny from rubbing it against paper. the past 3 days have involved 1 GP essay, an AQ, 2 PC essays and 2 Bio essays, plus lecture notes. my almost-new pen is down to about 1 cm of ink left.

ytd: PC in the morning. 3hrs! 2 essays! dint noe wat the heck to write for the poetry comparison, but did tt qn anyway; dint even attempt to read the drama; did the prose cos i cldn't be bothered to analyse the last poem.
then Bio S in the afternoon. ??? quadrupeds??? on acct of my not having studied/ read up in prep for the paper, i cld only rmb bits of stuff abt ethanol/biogas, so the fossil fuel answer was v short. the 3rd world ctry one was marginally better in terms of length. crapped lots of stuff, made up the rest. was deliberating attempting the protein qn but how can one write an entire essay discussing the tertiary structure? cldn't for the life of me rmb even one example, so gave up on tt. at least i can be sure i wont have to treat the other bio s ppl to lunch cos i'll definitely get a U.

monday: GP. globalisation. which most ppl did, so = competition! the compre was !!?? the 1st psg had little to do with population. 2nd passage went on at gr8 length abt Americans n their obsession w numbers. summary was a scavenger hunt.

entire chem syllabus. entire bio syllabus. entire math syllabus. 6 lit texts. little more than a WEEK.

yep, i've neglected this blog for quite some time.
there's been nothing interesting for the past few wks, really. been inundated with an incredible amount of assignments, tutorials, etc. just bio alone is more than enough to occupy me for hrs. not to mention math, thermodynamics*** and lit essays.
how can anyone expect us to get down to studying when we're all up to our necks just trying to clear the load of schwk? every time i clear one stack and think i've finally got time to study, another flood comes in.

*** speaking of which: what does the word 'option' mean to the sch and whoever plans our chem syllabus? why issit tt we are not given a choice as to which chem OPTION to take? several other jcs are being considerate to their students and allowing them to choose, such tt the non-physics students are not forced to grapple with horrible physics-like equations to do with work done and pressure and energy and wat-have-u. sure, the tchrs can say tt thermodynamics is easier to score... but tt's if students first GET THE CONCEPTS and are able to apply the equations. some ppl dropped physics for a REASON.

tmr: another day gone. dad going to JB, have to go up to meet him since we've not seen him for several mths, and since he can't come down to s'pore...
