Today was a very nice day for me. Although I did not take public transport eventually, I was accompanied by many other disobedient students who arrived in cars.

When I stepped in to the class for the 2nd time (I went out to get a drink), I was greeted with a birthday wish. Then they publicly announced it to everyone in the class and I was told that one of the China Scholars in my class became one year older today.

I was wide awake the whole day, managed to keep alive well, until lunch time, at least. I finally got the hang of the Mole Concept in Chemistry. Then for Geography we just laughed again as usual, and then it was PE, which our teacher concluded that our class had a worser attitude than yesterday's class, which I definitely agree to. There was no coordination at all. And it so happened that homework yesterday was a Composition on Dangerous Sports, which I classified Softball under, and that was what we were doing today.

Then during recess, I handed in my Physics worksheet and the Chinese Project :). I hope she doesn't take marks off for being 1 day late, I couldn't find her yesterday. It did not look like she remembered that the deadline was on the 19th anyway.

And then Maths, was again, tiring and fun at the same time. I got back my Base Test result. 18/20, I predicted it right, what I foresaw wrongly was the question that I was denied marks from. My working was perfectly fine for the last question which I expected to be wrong. The deducted marks were a result of careless mistakes. I was told to form a Quadratic Equation, so it will be bla bla bla equals to 0. My final statement was something like "Equation = x^2 + 20x - 4", I can't remember the exact equation. Firstly, I am not supposed to put the equals sign, it's supposed to be "is" in that place. Then, I did not write that the equation was equal to 0. 1 mark taken off for that.

Mistake 2 was that the equation given is always positive, so I solved it with proper working all the way to the end, where I forgot to reject the negative answer. It's always positive, but I left the negative answer there, and k was the coefficient of x^2. Another 1 mark off for that.

For English, we discussed the format of a letter, which was quite interesting when she gave us examples of funny, wrong formats that students had written in the past. When the bell rang, the class sang "Happy Birthday" twice, after which Ms Leng expressed her own wishes to us too. I went for lunch and rushed to the library 2 minutes before the next lesson.

The lesson at 1.50pm was Social Studies. I was late by 1 minute and I went through it with a heavy heart because the teacher was dragging the lesson until 3.30pm. Not that I don't like to stay, but I had important things today, which turned out to be not so important afterwards. She told us that at 2.45, and then gave us a 5 minutes break which was supposed to give us the required energy to last until the end of the lesson, but I suspect that she knew some of us had brought our handphones and wanted to let us inform any important people of the late end to the lesson today. We were allowed out of the class for 5 minutes.
