The Jungle Hat
Lol, too long never post anything, and now a big milestone in my life, so I shall talk about it. Finally, the rough part is over. I got the well respected Jungle Hat and my 3SG rank will soon follow. Talk about, finally! After almost a year of being an SCT! Haha. I guess the theory aspect was easy for me, so I scored a lot of points, making me the Silver Bayonet. I don't think my Recce skills are that good actually, lol. Made lots of good friends from other units. Took some nice pictures. Will miss them. They have lucky NS lives.

Reflections
Suddenly felt like writing my thoughts after my 2nd field camp. Look at the tagboard, the last thing I said was when I was going for the first field camp lol. Field camp is just horrible, my most hated thing inside there! No bathe, no lights, and also, heat rash!! waaaaa! Oh but well, we do learn many things inside, including how we behanve when we are tired, who are the nice guys, and most importantly, team bonding! Because we can chat before we sleep! haha!

I am so really happy that I have such a nice bed buddy Eric Tay. He helps other people so much, preparing for the field camp and during the field cap as well. I am glad that he helps other people, so nice :D. He helped me a lot, both helping me with action and also with thought, the though of, my good jc friend is with me in field camp together through this shit. My section is very cool too, I know much more about them through this field camp, especially our password. Anyway this is over, the next big thing to look forward to is our weeeew poom grandslam, where we will do more missions, grrr, can already feel the tiredness.

Farewell Assembly 2008
As I was thinking about the past, 2 years has indeed gone by very quickly. From Orientation, all the way till now, where A levels are staring at us. I may not be so much of an emotional person, but yet, there was this sense of longing.

Maybe too much have happened. Maybe it's the teachers? They were excellent teachers really! Miss Wu, was a really great teacher who never fails help us in many ways. She has really did a lot for us! Also, I'm glad that I belong to a wonderful class, 07S41.

Do you remember the time when I propose the topic "07S41:Class of Talents" It's really true, if you think back carefully. We have talents in all aspects! Just look, firstly, on the academic side, our class has done well for math and chem, congratulations! :D We have our Mr Genius Erik, who will never fail to outsmart, hahas. Then we'll go to arts. There's Mark, geographer of the 07 batch! And Eric Tay has got the Geog H1 subject prize woohoo! For more arts, we can also look at the wonderful music makers, we have Eric Ng, Daniel, Beatrice and Charissa, who plays National Anthem and Victoria Anthem for the school, impressive! Also, not to mention Li Ying and Stepfanie, in String and CO respectively, making good music! We also have our very own Super Star Keely!!! As for great thinkers and philosophers, we have Shannon, who never fails to come up with brilliant argument points that stumbles the class, and me, in a GP discussion. There is also very kind hearted people, Cheryl from First Aid, and Ivie. They donated blood for 2 years consecutive years! Now, that makes me feel guilty... Over to sports, the best runner in VJC, and (perhaps) in Singapore! We also have Freddie, wow, man! Best Track and Field player in VJC too! Don't forget our sportswoman Natassia. Wow, her soccer just roxxx! Then, we have leadership. Qian Yu from Student's council, Nicole for CT council, and our class also have the most people in house comm, Keely and Aaron! Sorry if I have not mentioned your name, I'm sure that everyone has a talent that will be recognised someday, and I really mean everyone of you!

Now, thinking back... many memories indeed, wonder how much I will forget when I grow older... Now, it is the time for us to work hard for you know what. I wish you all the best, but of course, you have to study hard in order to do it! :D

VJC College Day 2008
Hmm, lol. Stuff not to be proud of actually, but I got a subject prize for being top in cohort in H1 geography, umm, talk about some luck there, haha! This year, I will not get anything at all, sadly. To get the subject prize, one has to be top in cohort and get either an A or B in that subject. My condolences to Mark who got C for H1 Chemistry, but he possess a very applausable quality of honesty for admitting he didn't get A. Nice, my mum and my aunt went and took some pics, but I shall not upload them Zzz, lol. They both thought the performances were very nice, especially the Band's performance, and I totally agree with them. This year has this years targets and goals, and we all will work hard together towards our ultimate goal of our JC life.

A professor was giving a big test one day to his students. He handed out all of the tests and went back to his desk to wait. Once the test was over the students all handed the tests back in. The professor noticed that one of the students had attached a $100 bill to his test with a note saying "A dollar per point." The next class the professor handed the tests back out. This student got back his test and $64 change...

Holidays
How time flies, the holidays are already ending. The preparation of exams... I'm not quite confident, lol. Let's see. Hmm, my parents are giving me the ULTIMATE test man, they are going overseas while we are taking exams ... Aww man, I can't play 24 hours while they are gone >.<>

School
It's like wow! It's already mid year and we are taking A' levels so soon, zomg. Anyways, I'm so happy, I have 2 H3 modules... finished! :D. Now all that's left is just the real A'levels itself. Hmm, talk about fast.

Holidays
Is not like holidays considering the fact that I had a PSC PAE test, followed by a H3 exam yesterday. More to come is a SAT test next sat (pun not intended), and last but not least, the final finishing is the Common Test 2, which I have no reason not to do well for ><. So I'll study for CT2 well.

Life
Nowadays, I keep looking at people with pessimisic views about life, and the most funny was the thinking that we cannot define life because it is meaningless. Life is something that is precious, and we should all cherish it because we were granted such a wonderful gift. Thus, you have to use it to the fullest, enjoy it at times, and of course, when it is time to struggle, do so. If you are in hell and you don't keep moving, you get stuck there. So, for those who are struggling, you still have to take some time out to enjy a bit okies? Don't just keep on going, it's not good for the spirit. Must remember this. Oh, and hope you all get the joke :D.

We were oxidizing ethanol to ethanoic acid. If I remember rightly, you reflux it for twenty minutes with dilute HCl to get it to go to an aldehyde first, then bash it with conc. sulphuric and sodium dichromate for another twenty minutes to make it go the rest of the way. Anyhow, there I was carefully following the instructions in the textbook. I got as far as the aldehyde. At this point the book said "Add 5g of Na2Cr2O7." I did that. Then it said "Now using a dropper pippette add 10ml of conc. sulphuric acid..." I did that. Then I read the rest of the line, and it said: "CAREFULLY, drop by drop over 10 minutes." I lifted my heead to see evil looking bubbles spewing forth from my pear-shaped flask beneath a growing tower of thick orange fumes. It looked like something off the set for Jeckyll and Hyde.
