Had HSK Test yesterday, it was alright. Some people were so late that they missed the Listening Comprehension section completely. The rest was ok, some weird parts.
Patrick returned for training today. He was better than before, but had not had proper training. The whole day was basically just Patrick, Julian and I playing against each other, taking turns. And that was really all that could be counted in today's training.

Loooooong weekend starts now, or rather, started yesterday. I've gone wrong for a couple more tests, did ok in the other 2, and now, with less than 2 weeks to CT2, I still don't feel the urge to study when I'm in front of the table. At other locations, I can tell myself that I'm going to study when I get home, but it doesn't happen. And worse, with the looooong weekend, it feels like a holiday.
I didn't really enjoy the part on National Day Celebration today, although Hong Fu and the other Management Committee did put in the effort. Thanks for ending the weekend in almost high spirits though.

Fridays are starting to include bonuses in them. This week's bonus is to be released at 12.10. The bonus for the majority, however, would turn out to be a dreadful evening for certain others as they attend the Founder's Day Ceremony for 3 hours. Fortunately for me, I was not one of them. So I took the early dismissal to catch 老牛与嫩草 with Daryl and friends.
The movie had a nice storyline which caught me unexpected. The jokes were good, thanks to the existence of Singlish and Hokkien along with Singapore humor. I noticed that the 2 Taxi Drivers drove the same car, which was obviously an overlooked mistake. It got really surprising towards the end, and didn't turn out as I expected.
Bishan ride home, wasn't too difficult to figure out once we got there, but I couldn't visualize the route the bus would take until it did.

Back for a post, I managed to get through today barely falling asleep and I was sure I would be tired because I got up a couple of times during the night, and when sleep is interrupted, somehow it just resets your rest period so you will need another 7 - 8 hours of sleep.
Nothing exceptionally interesting happened until Assembly, Mass for Catholics. Well, that was a respectable ceremony, but overall behaviour was appalling, to quote. I can see why it's important, but about 3/4 of them treat it as a joke, which is indeed a disappointment. After the service, for RME, we went on to Part 2 of erm Sex Education, but didn't manage to finish it up due to time constraints. Then the supposedly arranged remedial beforehand got cancelled because the teacher had a meeting, so I spent an extra hour and a half in school doing... stuff.

I've been so lazy to post. Sunday was a great one, I got to meet scholars at their hostel and they were really sociable people like one big family. They were very supportive on me in my efforts to take a trophy from them, which I eventually succeeded in.
Not much happened recently, but it's still been fun.

+1 for Weekend already :). So lessons were fine, balancing Chemical Equations now are way easier than last year, because we really didn't catch anything during the lessons then. Now, it's like addition and subtraction. The second half of the day was fine too, more than half the class left at 1.20 for their Oral. Then Joel, Bryan and Samuel had to spend half an hour waiting for me, they were dismissed at 1.20.
We slowly made our way to AMK Hub, then looked at the time slots for Despicable Me. 4.15pm was the earliest, which I refused to wait for, so we picked Toy Story 3 at 3.20 as the alternative. It would prove to be to our benefit, as I was also asked for Despicable Me on the 18th already. So we would catch it on that day, as well as get to watch Toy Story 3. I was a little rusty on the characters, since Toy Story 2 was a 1999 film. But it's hard to forget Woody and Buzz Lightyear, as well as Mr and Mrs Potato :). It isn't exactly a sequel since the Toy Story 2 left no hint of a continuation, so one wouldn't really need to see the previous films to understand this one, but it would prove a bonus. Andy seemed to have grown in real time, he was now a college student. Throughout the movie, there were no sudden shocks and the volume wasn't too loud, but the baby definitely looked creepy. It was very eventful, many of the parts were fast-paced, and the jokes that came up were really original, such as Ydna and the Spanish Buzz. The storyline wasn't complex at all either. It was really well done, this show.
The bus ride back was a filled one, but at least the people knew how to "move to the rear" to make space for the front.
