ExamNoMeter: 7 Days (w00t!)
Additional Mathematics is over! one of my biggest nightmares over and done with!
there is a chance of passing, but it seems rather slim. well, at least it wouldnt be a very bad fail. or at least I hope so.
next is Chemistry. I would do a bit of all the "major" papers next week this weekend, especially biology given its heavy reliance on contextual knowledge.
==
time flies. I had taken exams in Hall five times already! this means I have completed about half the exams!
since its the weekend, lets discuss some stuff regarding the times spent in this extremely big function room with super strong lights.
- freaking cold airconditioning (that it is supposed to be)
the school is being giam siap. like today, the aircon only on till about 9.30am (the paper ends at 10.30am). it is obvious since the aircon makes a whining sound which is clearly audible (but not disturbing).
- the Chief Presiding Examiner (CPE)
as I mentioned, she is Mdm Qin WW. since she teaches chinese, her english is not very good. here are some of the classic quotes.
- (every exam so far) please hand in your used / unused 的 paper.
- (A Maths paper today) tie your scripts together with the string. you can use a pen and pok a hole through the graph paper.
- (on first day, chi paper). you are dismissed. *everyone stands up and get ready to leave* wait! did I say you can go yet?
- Combined Humanities paper
the paper chloe png set (History section) has this particularly interesting source in the Source Based Question section on Stalin's Five Year Plans for USSR (now Russia)'s economic development.
"I love Stalin. Bury him here as soon as possible." - message engraved on a kulak's tombstone.
the way this is phrased sounds a bit humourous. especially on the part where he loves Stalin. this motivated shawn to draw a picture of a tombstone with the words on it.

cant think of anything else at the moment thanks to the damn haze and I shall end my EOY post here and start a Life one.
