Promos
Wednesday, September 3, 2008

My days are very routine. Wake up, eat breakfast and read the news, spend like 2hrs or so on the net either playing or surfing, then do the subject of the day (planned previously), followed by a quick sneak to Bedok Interchange for lunch (nyum nyum nyum) which takes an amazing and mere 35mins, travel time included, then settle down once more for the rest of the day to continue the subject of the day. Effectively, I have withdrawn myself into near-mugger hibernation. The extreme point comes when I spend all my time, and I mean all, (besides eating lah.) in studying. that will come soon.

My confidence in Physics has seen a trememdous boost ever since my two and 1/4 days at the subject. I used to be kind of 'emu-like', aka attempting to avoid what I simply can't seem to do, (which sometimes manifests itself in other aspects of my life) but now that I force myself to do the work, it doesn't seem so much of a killer. Nonetheless, it still is quite painful to attempt. Finally realised that I couldn't hide when I told myself, giving up on Physics will be a direct "advance or retain" choice for me come the Promos. Not even a hint at promotion.

My promos will start on the 22nd of Sept, with GP 1 and 2 as well as Econs. It will end with H1 History on the 29th, and school will only resume on the 1st of October. If I had taken KI or H2 Geog, why, school would resume the very follwing day. Talk about a far cry from the breath of freedom we enjoyed back in secondary school.
