*sigh* | Thursday, June 08, 2006
I expected today's paper to slaughter me. Slaughter as in, fighting off five counter-terrorist with a glock-18, and they are armed with carbine.
Thankfully, it didn't turn out like that. Neither did I make it to my expectations.
A chapter takes an entire lecture and tutorial to complete. I was surprised at my ability to grasp it in less than fifteen minutes, right before my paper. I was panicking the night before, since I didn't know a damn thing about it. Maybe I am not as slow as I think?
Imagine listening your friend talk about maths, looking through some of her notes, and off you go to do some A-Maths test. Yeah, that's about it.
But ahhh! I didn't know those bastards will test me on theory. I didn't even TOUCH the theory section. And they gave 40% of the paper to theory. 40%!!! WTF! I would have been in deep shit, if not for my general knowledge which probably saved me 15%.
I couldn't forgive myself for getting tricked by another question. 8 marks flew away.
Dang. And the demoralizing part was that my trial-and-error got it correct but nooooo...I wrote the wrong answer down. OH MY GAWD.
Verdict? I probably get a 60+.
There goes my dream of getting A for my modules. Getting a GPA: 4 is like trying to get a B for my chinese. I should just stop going for lecture, and be contented with my Passes. After all, it is my destiny. I am doomed for scrubdom!
And getting a B for my chinese is like being the national champion for the coming MTG tournament.
Oh, speaking about Nationals. The people who get into our Top 8 are players that are either...1) Japanese 2)Malaysians. Those bastards fly over from their countries just to play in our pin-size country's nationals. The top 8 of the 2005 Nationals has only ONE SINGAPOREAN. ONE-FREAKING-SINGAPOREAN. That's like Singapore idol having ten foreigners in the top ten, and our winner is some japanese who speaks broken english. I am like, so proud.
I am playing for the National qualifiers anyway. Sometimes, I just wish Moses plays competitive Type 2 with me. I could tweak a budget B/G aggro/control for him, but he needs those damn Overgrown tombs which cost $75 for a playset?
