i feel.. drunk. in a drunken stupor. lol, after all, i slept at 12.30am last night and 1am the night before. not really in a philosophical mood, i'll just post another entry on trivial matters.
its been a terribly exhausting tuesday for me, with bio 2 and math 1 papers on the same day. zz. bio was first, in the morning. as usual, i was feeling damn unprepared, cause i studied like syllabus E-J in a mad rush the previous night. the paper was a pleasant surprise, like chem 3. i mean, i can't confidently say all my answers were correct. but it was a pretty do-able paper, pretty standard, easy even relative to prelim papers and all. except that i crapped for a 6m essay -_-' one on transpiration. to think the answers were in the notes. lesson learnt: never leave out the Question Sets when studying biology lecture notes.
felt even more pathetic before math 1. everyone was frantically mugging last min, and i realised i couldn't do alot of basic stuff, and i ended up stoning instead of studying. horrible. the paper was.....yet another pleasant surprise i guess. i mean, my math has always sucked all along, every math exam i take deals a heavy blow to my morale when i get back the results. i guess i feel better about this paper, considering i lost only around 15marks, and i could do all the rest. i'm most proud of the last question. when i say differential equations and vectors for the either/or questions, i was like. gg la. i didnt even really study these topics. it didn't help that i couldnt do the ODE at ALL. so i was forced to do vectors. try to picture an oobernoob doing vectors. one who can't even differentiate between original/resolved components and unit/direction vectors. miraculously, i managed to get the correct answer. you cannot even begin to understand how overwhelmed with emotion i am. i am so totally relieved. i have to thank huiling for tutoring me on vectors 1 hour before the paper.
so.. 7 papers down, 8 more to go. econs 3, math 2, and chem 1 & 2 next week. not too worried for chem, will have to practise some stats. quite concerned for my econs. my performance in it has been highly volatile. oh well, 1 week break. i'll TRY to mug. i'll TRY not to regret. and you over there. its about time you stop wasting ure life reading blogs. GO STUDY LA.
