UT, Day 1

This is the first of a series of posts about the cursed UT. 

Yesterday I didn’t study much. I was still beside the computer. What a bad student. Last night I prayed to God saying I want to get up at 6:30 to get some early revisions. (Brains are better in the morning. Around 7 I think.)

I didn’t set the alarm clock. I would get up if I could, but if not I would just go to the exams like that.

However, I woke up at 7. (Well, do you know that I don’t usually get up so easily? My mum has to shout to me every day.) I got up and only my dad was there. He asked why I woke up so early. I answered I was going to have exams. Duh, he didn’t even know that.

I started to look at BIK. I looked at all those things about "work". What if he asks me to list what the Bible says about working? I thought I shouldn’t risk it, so I labeled them all. Boy, you know what ends up. 14 marks for that question.

I didn’t have much time left. So I did the usual wishing and changing stuff and went to school. Before the exam started, I looked at those about temptation. And this ended up in the exam as well. What luck is this?

Thank God, really. For all these wonderful things. Yes, this time BIK is easier, but I’m really glad I did much better than last time. A good start of a week of exams.

Oh, CHI too. Almost forgot about it. It went OK. I’m not so sure about this one. Just two compositions that seem OK.

Back here

Hi, my blog. Haven’t been here for a long time.

Exams are coming. Just can’t believe it. It seems so distant even now. I don’t know what to revise. I hate BIK. Maybe Math or Phy or a bit Chi. Then leave BIK on Sunday.

I hate you exams.

But hey, look at the Eng exam! No speaking! Hooray! Hasn’t been a thing this good for a long time! Even though I can’t be the first, at least I won’t fall like last time!

I gotta think a lot about Chem and Phy. It’s good to get me thinking.

Number guessing game

I went to MO (Mathematics Olympiads) today. It was that other Mr Lo – the doctor. He gave us two papers to do.

The first we did miserably. We were very, very wrong.

The second, we did it in a different way. We didn’t know how to do it, so we guessed. We put down "2" and proceeded to the next question. The next was not so hard. Then we went on to the third. And in the forth we were stuck. Later Mr Lo checked the answers with us. Turned out our guess in Q1 was correct! Mr Lo tried to solve it but he couldn’t. Even the doctor couldn’t, so it’s no surprise that we couldn’t.

We were so crazily happy. MO is like that I guess. The answers are usually integers so it’s easy to guess.

Fatigued

Last night I did those ADM, CHM, and CHI homework. Many of you know how it went.

I copied some Chm in the morning, handed it in, done.

I didn’t manage to copy all Adm, so I didn’t do most of Q4. Maybe I’ll have to stay after school later. (BTW Unun was found copying by two prefects. She’ll have some troubles I guess.)

Chi report, I did that in the night. I spent so much time. OK, I produced a decent report, handed that in, but Ms Pig returned the reports to us! So bad! She wants us to change the report to make it "better". Wasted my time!

You know, last night I slept at 4 because of all these homework. 4 AM. The worst I had was 3 AM. I’ve set a new record. I just hate book reports. Chinese reports in particular.

But luckily I did not feel sick (I usually did when I had to sleep at 3 AM), nor did I fell asleep in lessons (except Chm, but I always sleep a little during Chm lessons.) I think God listened to my prayer. I prayed a lot about having a very good sleep, not falling asleep in lessons, and not being sick, etc. Though I copied homework. Just very bad of me.
