If love were liquid it would drown me,
In a placeless place would find me,
In a heart shape come around me and then,
Melt me slowly down,
If love were human it would know me,
In a lost space come and show me,
Hold me and control me and then,
Melt me slowly down,
Like chocolate.

mid-prelim breather!
warning: rants and nonsensical blabbering ahead. proceed with caution. :p
alright, the 1st week of prelims is OVER! that's like 6 papers down and 5 more to go (of which 3 are mcq. :)) yes, so let's start from the beginning:
1st paper was bio2 on monday, and what a better way to screw up the prelims by thinking that it was bio1 all throughout the sept hols. -.-" it was only like sat night that i realised it was PAPER 2 which is structured & essay and not mcq. like omg. and i crammed like half the bio syllabus in 2 days. ugh. then i made it worse cos there was so little time for the paper and i took so long for the questions that when i finally started on the essay section (write 2 20-mark essays), the teacher announced that there was 15min left. like WOW. apparently everyone else had insufficient time so hopefully everyone's the same on average. (yah, i wish!) haha.
on the same day was maths1, which is like my cursed subject or sth. as usual, it was more of a flip-dunno, flip-dunno kind of paper. basically screwed up also lah, considering i couldn't even do some of the 1-mark, 2-mark questions. my best bet is probably the 5-mark numerical methods question. haha. one of my classmates left even before the paper was halfway through. made me so tempted to give up also. but of cos i didn't. so there goes my 1st day of prelims, which left me so utterly disappointed, depressed and trashed that i had a good mind to give up A levels altogether. considering the next day was chem3 (essay), which i haven't studied for yet, things really looked bleak.
but surprise surprise, chem3 turned out to be a moral booster. ok, don't compare me against those S paper, chem-sure-get-A kind of students. given the fact that i have consistently failed chem, this was like one of the best chem essay papers i've done. not sure if the answers are correct but at least i get to write sth down. the previous papers were all blanks (like math). haha. then again, 2 days later, whatever 'extra' marks that i could have gotten in chem3 was eroded away in chem2. guess i'm back to square one. but at least it boosted my moral at the crucial time. :p
econ3 was on the same day as chem 2, ie thursday. so aft the bad chem2 paper, me and tiq went to macs for breakfast to cheer ourselves up 1st. haha. studying econ with eq, queen, grace, tiq, and some other 22nds in the council room was quite fun and fruitful. we were applying econs to like everything else not linked to econs. haha. econ3 was quite ok, and i thought it was quite good that i actually managed to finish the 3 essays to reasonable length in the time allocated (45min per essay). :) another satisfying paper. jus hope the teachers think the same way as me. :p ah yes, i forgot, some fella left the handphone on loud mode, and some fella kept calling throughout the 2hr 45min paper, resulting in an annoying non-stop ringing in the hall. ugh, wth. dunno why the teachers only chose to identify and bring the bag away only in the last 2 min of the exam. -.-"
next day was maths2, which included stats. section A on pure maths was ok, i thought. it was more of section D on stats that really stumped me. (that same classmate of mine walked out halfway again. :p) but oh well, i've been stumped by maths so many times that it doesn't seem surprising. haha. aft all, screwed up maths1 alr, plus even if i thought i did ok, the teachers seem to think otherwise. :p
so that's that for this week. bulk of next week's paper is econ2 (drq & case study), and bio3, which is the same as bio2 but with the option topic. gulp. haha. that reminds me, i ought to be mugging now. :p
