i guess ord marks another milestone, well, talk about growing with everyone in the past 4 years. well, the usual water bombings still remained, but i reckon what will remain of 4 years of ncc will not be this instantaneous remembrance but the streched period of forging ties. thought i could seriously have done more within these years, but again, i shouldnt describe so much of a scenario everyone born into this earth would have to go through.went with kaixian, rose and channel to some music awards at cat high last friday, which was real good. but of course, it's relative (where on earth can you find absolute perfectionism?). well, the significance in mentioning this lies not within the shows itself but the personal ramifications it had on me. for one, i thought that we at hci were still at the lower ends of the rungs if the musical passion of s'porean schools were lined end-on-end; and i really do, sort of admire these talents (if they're talents to begin with, or just the average pseudo-genius Tom, which reallyputs us to shame). but talk about the school administration's backing, talk about financial support and we pale in comparison. Pallor. yet, mention acadamic lust and we hammer them flat-out. jason wong talked to us about promotional criterion to hcjc. going by his flashy statistics (which based themselves in turn, on the assumption that results will follow similar trends of a pyramid with the rotten grades at the bottom), 40% of the cohort will not make it to hcjc. Laughable? yea. Ridiculous? outright so. So what's become of IP? I reckon it's pretty unfair to utilise past years' Olvels as a basis of comparison to IP curriculum and students' acadamic standards. talk about an avrg msg of 3.00 and an L1R5 of 6. but well, thats without factoring in the other mitigating (and potentially lethal) ill-effects of..yea, the trillions of saturated,lambasticated bullshit. But whether IP is too preliminary to be fairly commented on is to be exposed to the world in 5 mths (or 2.5 yrs). my mum called me a nuisance for forgetting my phone today. well i had been waiting for her since the pre-arranged time at 2 (for some appointment..), but sort of felt jerky after 20 mins without trace of the car. so anyway i tried to borrow a line from some sec 1s but without avail. i still got that line in (only to be recieved by my aunt who informed me that my mum herself had forgotten her phone..) by the pleasant incidence of my friend Tiffany who happened to be entering, lending me her phone. Thanks dude. You know i used to find it counfounding why teenagers are so hung up over cellphones, but perhaps now i could convince people of OUR fervent cause..man,i feel as if i'am off balance (must be cerebellum?). off to finish some math, mrp to get some motivation, and probably some inspiration too...::
