This is my 50th post. Very nice. Well, it's been 2 months since i last posted. So guess what? Yes my A levels have finally finished. Thanks to everyone who supported me to allow me to be able to survive this ordeal and journey. It was harsh while it lasted but it also marks the end of student years. Sob.
I really didn't want to evaluate my own grades and studies because i don't want to think the worst of my subjects but i think i shall review on what has happen and estimate my own results. Firstly, chem was horrendous, it was like boom and screwed. I scored where i could and flunk where everyone flunked. My SPA was not the best so chem is very unstable. It is in the "red" zone. The only good thing was that for my MCQ, a little voice in my head kept telling me the right answers. Haha, i was really lucky and to think Jason had a lot of fun thinking i was wrong when in fact i got all correct because of sheer dumb luck. It sounds really insulting to be insulted by someone dumber than you but then again, it's not like this is the first time. General paper was generally fine. It was acceptable, normal i should say. It's probably mid yellow-green.
Biology was as usual fine, made a few careless mistakes that are not enough to kill me but i am afraid my answers may not be the best, so it is half yellow. Maths was the best paper ever, not among the rest but among all the maths papers that i have done. Estimated around 85 marks, which should by all means net me my A, but then you never know. Fingers cross man. I am really happy for my paper 2. Stats other than explanation almost all correct 56/60. Nice. And the other 40 i only lost 2. No matter what happens for math, i really did my best and i have no regrets. Economics was weird to say the least. 2 macro CSQ, caught me off guard and i was about to answer wrongly if i had not remained calm. Thanks. I did 2 of the easiest essay questions, the other being half hard. If there are plenty of buffers out there, then Economics should be yellow-green. Nice. Overall, very pleased with all my subjects and my efforts.
After As it was a joyous feeling. After a relatively nice economics essay paper, 9 days before the end of my last paper, went with the OAC team to Ashtons for a nice dinner, had cake and a birthday suprise. Nice. Also, went to watch Harry Potter. Emma Watson = Nice. Had a blast despite everything. Then 3 days before my exams went to eat sushi with the rest and went to K box to send Serah off. Everyone's leaving, sending Charlyne off on the 8th. Sad.
I watched Dragon Zakura under Li Zhong's advice. After finding and searching through tons of websites for a working link i saw a glimpse of reviews of the endings which was said to be bad and disappointing and i have to concur. The story plot is simple enough, a teacher decided to teach some students from the worst school to enter Toudai, the most prestigious university in Japan. Through vigorous exercises, study camps and unorthodox methods the 6 students who participated in the course, matured, gain independence and gave it all they have. Really all they have into the exams. I wish i watched the show before my As. I would have been so inspired. It was much better than GTO and Gokusen only in terms of the students feelings towards education and drive. It was such a long time since i felt such remorse and motivation when they show ended. In the end, 1 student failed to partake in the exams. 3 entered and 2 failed which was extremely saddening, because it felt like the end of the world for them i can picture myself in their shoes if i fail to do up to par on my A levels. I pray i would do well. The show truly shows that reality is cruel, education is everything, a ticket to a prestigious high school is a ticket to a good life, so to speak. A fail means a fail, a pass is a pass. There is no intermediates. Those words were really harsh when the teacher said it but i could related and hence i began to worry about myself again, lol. But overall, i loved the show because of the excellent portrayal of the feelings of the different individual and the growth in a mere 11 episodes. I cant believe i started on episode 1 and ended on the last. That shows how addictive it was. 2 Thumbs up. Dragon Zakura was EPIC :D
For the past 5 days all i did was DS and PS3. Or should i just say STREET FIGHTER IV & FINAL FANTASY XIII. I love Square Enix and Final Fantasy XIII. They are geniuses. Finally completed the story and the gameplay, design, background, battle system is the best of the best. Epic WIN & Love :D. Though the story is not very nice since i got lost half way and the farming was damm bad. I spent like 10 hours yesterday to aim for a trapazehedron. And today after 10 minutes and 3 kills i got a trap. Woots.Then after i went back to train, i had another. Then i was like lol maybe i will be lucky and get a third and then i really had another drop. The funniest was when i went back to Pulse and was feeling bored so i said " Why not?' And then a trapazehedron really dropped. I was like i am Epic lucky. Nice. Not to mention, those bloody turtles have like 5,000,000 life and extremely hard to kill. Thank you, lady luck. The gil is really hard to gather. In all final fantasy games, this is the worst gil problem. I mean in FF8, Gil like the rain, abundant and plentiful. But here, it is like the rarest item in the world and Cocoon is so rich. The irony.
Just like my Final Fantasy XIII ,the scarcest thing in my life currently is money. As for Street Fighter, i was very lucky too. It was said i needed 2 perfect, 5 First Attacks and 3 Ultimates, 0 retries to unlock Gouken but i managed to unlock him with 1 perfect, 6 First Attcks, 4 Ultimates. The perfect is really hard to aim. LoL, i must be on a roll. As for Final Fantasy the funniest thing happen today when i unlocked Lightning's trophy to get her Theme but i did not know why i could not see it. After 3 hours of tinkering and searching Youtube. I realized, by sheer dumb luck again that it was on the extras screen which i had to download. Haha nice. Feel like an idiot but then who cares? NICE :D I love my life.
Worst thing is i realized Prom is tomorrow. Thanks to that idiot Leon, who told me that it was on the 9th and now he is acting all blur. I wish i could smash his face in, but i know i will live to regret it lol. So apparently, is still have a bad temper when it comes to events, or is it because i have not exploded in a while. Hmm, well i am glad that he is neutral to such things, if not he may have realized my message was full of scorn and rage. Shall go get a belt, clothes and accessories tomorrow, i swear i inherited the fashion gene from my mum while my sisters did not receive it. Must be homozygous recessive.
Looking forward to the prom as well as the after party. Okay, i shall not lie, i am only looking forward to the after party. Hope it will be a blast. Will sleep in early tomorrow to prepare. Thanks for everything. I appreciate it. Thank you, my life.
