Super Super long time since I posted. Partly cos the internet at boarding is so unreliable and slowwww.
Learnt quite a bit from SLC. Thing is, dunno if it will even come useful, as the lessons to me are just seeds planted in your mind. Whether they germinate is a another matter.
NTU is DAM FAR FROM MY HOUSE. yep. I went to NTU for HSSRP (Humanities Social Science Research Programme), to present my team's research project to some teachers and mentors/professors, and then I had to find my way back to RI. Took abt 1h and 10 mins or more I think. For a guy who lives in Serangoon with Bishan 2 MRT stations away, that is far.
My results...lets just say its not stellar. near average of my class. Which the highest in the level. Which kind of rocks cos I am in the best class. But then it makes me look average. bleh. I guess I am average.
During SLC, we ask our principal whether RI was in the endless chase for better results, or focusing on the character development of students. And a bunch of other questions of the school's direction. And to me, from all the vague and beating around the bush responses, the school so called exco does not know where we want to head.
On the other hand, how can we improve? By heaping more work and more extra activities for students?
Oh, and the sec 3s next year will have an exciting time. 6 mths of DMP in year 4, which is cool, but I hope it does not pull down the results of RJC in time to come...
I actually assessed ecareers.sg to find out what was best for my personality. And results such as autmaton engineers, financial advisors and stuff popped out. I guess its rather I have somewaht the passion, but the skills are seriously lacking.
Go into biotech? Go to engineering? Go to business/finance? Go to green tech? I can't decide. Ride on global trends, or contribute to what Singapore really lacks currently (engineers, if you do not know)?
Chewing on some yang shen right now. So bitter bark like chinese tonic that supposedly quenches thirst and boosts yang energy or yin, really dunno and something about good health or thereabouts. At least it really helps with the thirst quenching part. Somehow I dont feel thirsty after chewing a piece of that.
Just checked my audience stats. I have people from Russia, Ukraine and Poland coming to blog other than Singaporeans? o.O I guess lots of people use proxies situated in those countries...
Going for a gruelling hike/expedition on Tuesday as part of SLC, hope I dont die along the way. 5 more days to RIRC VON camp...
Lol played of dota with Ivan yesterday. I was rusty, but still better than Ivan, who dies everytime he met with an insane ai. And then the game stopped abruptly, cos my internet dced I think.
I think I am rambling in this post, so I will end off by saying I started to read chinese newspapers. Gonna read all the papers I get next year, as well as every Sunday. Hope my chinese standard actually improves...
