Imperfect Journal

It seems that I haven't been updating for a week or so. Well, I can't be blamed. I've been tied up with reports and assignments to copied lately and had no time for blogging.

Having said that, I can finally heave a sigh of relief. I've completed all my presentations and practical assignments. What's left now is my last report. After that, I'll be freed from that module. I've already completed one, 7 more to go. Shall wait.

Spent my day at Pulau Ubin with SPSU Social Committee. It was my first time there and I must say it's a whole new experience. The olden days experience, those kampong like houses, it's a new thing. In actual fact, the main purpose was to cycle there and explore. Even though the whole trip was tiring, but the fun kept me going. The thrills of exploring every single place that I've never been to, especially with my friends, that was the fun part.

Anyway here are the photos we took;

Let me recap what had happened this week. Firstly, I'm shifted from Event I/C of MMSP (Mr and Ms Singapore Poly) to the male co-ordinator. Secondly, I'm feelin' stressed up; I've yet to start my report for Biology and have yet to complete my engineering mathematics problem base learning. Have yet to start preparing for IDEA's presentation. It sucks.

But on a lighter note, I think I will be able to pull through it all. In addition, I've already completed my RWP presentation. I think it was good; I didn't stutter nor did I said the wrong word. It'll turn out great, I supposed.
Anyway here are some pictures of my class. Well, I haven't posted any pictures of my classmates before. So yeah, here it is.

Today's race was indeed a great experience for me. My first Dragon Boat competition ever. My team and I might have lost in the heats, but we did lose to the extend of getting thrash. In fact, I think we did great. It is a first attempt for almost everyone on the boat, hence having no competition experience. However, being our first race, we're able to synchronize like an actual Dragon Boat team was good enough. Still, there's a need to improve..

Did I mention that I'm in the Dragon Boat Junior Racing team for this Sunday's competition? Well, I'm looking forward to this competition. It'll be my first experience for a dragon boat competition. It's no longer just me and my partners racing down the lane. It's now about me and 19 other members co-ordinating and rowing our ass off down the lane. The thought of it felt great.

Anyway, today's training was a lot more tougher than the previous Dragon boat training. The sprints; 4x500, 4x300 and 2x100. It wore me out totally. I've got abrasions on my arm and butt. However, on a lighter note, I've got to use a competition life vest, which I have not used for about a year since I last kayaked, SP's boat and new pedal.
It felt great.

Now, I'll have to end my post here, I'm dead beat. So bye!

Great! I have a wasted day today. Other than finishing up my powerpoint slides, there's nothing else done. No revision, no nothing. Well maybe for the jog at Machritchie.
I must say, it felt good running at Machritchie. Haven't been there for about a year now. The running route, it's probably 2 years now. It felt fresh.

Anyway, I've totally forgotten about the Mathcad test tomorrow. I thought I heard tuesday, but the actual date is tomorrow. I haven't read anything related to it at all. Guess I might just flunk it.

Alright, I need to take a breather. I have been working on my powerpoint slides for the entire morning and I'm totally drained up. I couldn't do any sports because the weather sucks. In fact, the weather was rather promising actually. However, the promising weather disappear and totally whacked weather came. It's like on and off today.

Anyway, I'm feeling rather happy that I've finally got projects in SPSU. Had been waiting for my turn to come and now it's here. Firstly social committee that I'm in has to organize a SPSU outing. Second I'm in the event committee for the MMSP. Just so the one I wanted to be involved in. Great!

Alright, I have to get back to my power point slides. Shall end here

I'm currently using my school's screwed up, low connectivity internet to make this post. Well, it's the only way for me to pass my time since I still got 1 more hour before 3 when my lesson would start.

Since it has been a long time since I last posted I would first want to update about my Mid semester test. It might be quite long ago, but still it's something worth to update.
Maths (EMI) was an easy paper, except for the linear law question which was rather tricky I guess. Biology (ITM) was a piece of cake. Whatever Yang Jie said actually came out; drawing, drawing and more drawing. I kept on smiling to myself throughout the whole paper. Inorganic and organic chemistry (I&OC) was still passable, but not with good result. Introduction to chemical engineering (ICHE) was challenging, however it's still manageable. Chemical Engineering Principle B (CEPB) was tough. Well, not the whole paper, it's only the last question. It's impossible to do. Well, if I pass with flying colour it's a miracle.

The second thing I wanted to post is my result. Yes my result. I've only gotten back my I&OC, EMI and ICHE.
I&OC - 36/50 - B

EMI - 98/100 - A

ICHE - 71/80 - A

I&OC is such a disappointment. I've worked so hard for it, but I've gotten that low marks due to countless of careless mistake. It sucks totally. ICHE was a surprise, I did mention that it was manageable, but I wasn't expecting myself to get a good grade for it. It feels great though. EMI, could get full marks, however, I've got marks deducted just because my gradient was more by 1 and I didn't simplify fully my expression. Anyway, it was a good start.

The third thing I want to mention is, I'm hooked onto swimming. Yes, Shona passed me the swimming bug. And yes, I could swim better than I could before. It feels great. haha thanks shona for teaching.

Well, shall end my post here.
