tchotchke

i thought 'tchotchke' was a cute word.

yes we got back some papers today. and yes i almost scored full marks at maths. surprisingly, i didn't lose the mark at the differential equation question on metal expansion. sadly, i lost one mark when i didn't label a y-intercept, and another mark when i copied the question wrongly. not really happy that i lost marks for careless mistakes again, and i really checked through the paper =(

we also got back geography papers. omg yes i got an A too! my physical paper was much better than my human paper. oh my goodness i can't believe that i wrote 'the plate that is less dense will subduct under the other.' but the bomb is really clara! she's the new phenomenon in town! mr lee described her as never-before-seen, and really, she's amazing! oh yes clara's the new idol!

i was sitting with the literature students, watching some play bridge, before maths lecture. so sad, we're actually continuing with lessons on vectors. but i love maths. i happened to see a score in beejuan's file, and it was mine last time. it was a page out the viola part for mendelssohn's violin concerto. we played that for the december rise concert in 2005.

gp was fine, i didn't get an E this time. it's a B! and yes, i do think the attitude is the key to doing well, considering the minuscule marks i got for content in the essay. but hey, my language marks are quite consistent throughout the year, and it's even higher than my essay's content mark. like, totally.

miss ooi was doing malapropisms today. there was one on 'asparagus', and no one was giving the answer. so, i randomly said 'aspartic acid', and ms ooi thought i gave the right answer. she heard me say 'aspersions'. oh well, shan't deny myself of some praise.

mr tham returned us the chemistry papers. dear yiyan, who claimed that he would get U, actually topped the class! siuchu was happy that her S has become an A. i couldn't feel her joy, just the pain of doing question 2 of section C! i really died there with a 13/20! but then again, i got another A, so i was quite happy. eat that!

i was at ntuc with weiyang, yiyan, jia en and siuchu. while siuchu was doing some grocery shopping, i was staring at the chocolates section. looking at all the cadbury and nestlé, i just remembered the time when i was shopping for some birthday presents. and how i tried to wrap everything up quickly before they all melted.

went to swensens to celebrate weiyang's succesful promotion. omg he's behaving like this pregnant woman whose appetite changes so quickly. i thought that the crunchy chocolate ice cream thing would make me happier, but not really. the ice cream was really sinful, there was so much chocolate fudge and whipped cream!

i walked past jityew today. he didn't see me, though, and i couldn't say 'hi' to him. but just as well, considering i haven't been to church for a long while. he probably wouldn't recognise me.

i don't think you noticed me when i walked past you too. oh, i do miss you a lot, and i would really love to tell you how happy i am with my results. i've spent a lot of money on food today, but i still have an empty feeling inside that stems from the lack of you.
